Prima lettura
Genesis 28:10-22a
Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran. He came to a certain place, and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. He took one of the stones of the place, and put it under his head, and lay down in that place to sleep. He dreamed and saw a stairway set upon the earth, and its top reached to heaven. Behold, the angels of God were ascending and descending on it. Behold, the LORD stood above it, and said, "I am the LORD, the God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac. I will give the land you lie on to you and to your offspring. Your offspring will be as the dust of the earth, and you will spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south. In you and in your offspring, all the families of the earth will be blessed. Behold, I am with you, and will keep you, wherever you go, and will bring you again into this land. For I will not leave you until I have done that which I have spoken of to you." Jacob awakened out of his sleep, and he said, "Surely the LORD is in this place, and I didn't know it." He was afraid, and said, "How awesome this place is! This is none other than God's house, and this is the gate of heaven." Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put under his head, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil on its top. He called the name of that place Bethel, but the name of the city was Luz at the first. Jacob vowed a vow, saying, "If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and clothing to put on, so that I come again to my father's house in peace, and the LORD will be my God, then this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, will be God's house. Of all that you will give me I will surely give a tenth to you."
Salmo responsoriale
Psalm 91:1-2, 3-4, 14-15ab
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust." For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his feathers. Under his wings you will take refuge. His faithfulness is your shield and rampart. "Because he has set his love on me, therefore I will deliver him. I will set him on high, because he has known my name. He will call on me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him, and honor him.
Vangelo
Matthew 9:18-26
MENTRE egli ragionava loro queste cose, ecco, uno de' capi della sinagoga venne, e gli s'inchinò, dicendo: La mia figliuola è pur ora trapassata; ma vieni, e metti la mano sopra di lei, ed ella viverà. E Gesù, levatosi, lo seguitò, insieme co' suoi discepoli. Ed ecco, una donna, inferma di flusso di sangue già da dodici anni, si accostò di dietro, e toccò il lembo della sua vesta. Perciocchè ella diceva fra sè stessa: Se sol tocco la sua vesta, sarò liberata. E Gesù, rivoltosi, e vedutala, le disse: Sta' di buon cuore, figliuola; la tua fede ti ha salvata. E da quell'ora la donna fu liberata. E quando Gesù fu venuto in casa del capo della sinagoga, ed ebbe veduti i sonatori, e la moltitudine che romoreggiava, disse loro; Ritraetevi; perciocchè la fanciulla non è morta, ma dorme. Ed essi si ridevano di lui. Ma quando la moltitudine fu messa fuori, egli entrò, e prese la fanciulla per la mano, ed ella si destò. E la fama di ciò andò per tutto quel paese.
