Prima lettura

Genesis 46:1-7, 28-30

Israel traveled with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father, Isaac. God spoke to Israel in the visions of the night, and said, "Jacob, Jacob!" He said, "Here I am." He said, "I am God, the God of your father. Don't be afraid to go down into Egypt, for there I will make of you a great nation. I will go down with you into Egypt. I will also surely bring you up again. Joseph's hand will close your eyes." Jacob rose up from Beersheba, and the sons of Israel carried Jacob, their father, their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him. They took their livestock, and their goods, which they had gotten in the land of Canaan, and came into Egypt-Jacob, and all his offspring with him, his sons, and his sons' sons with him, his daughters, and his sons' daughters, and he brought all his offspring with him into Egypt. Jacob sent Judah before him to Joseph, to show the way before him to Goshen, and they came into the land of Goshen. Joseph prepared his chariot, and went up to meet Israel, his father, in Goshen. He presented himself to him, and fell on his neck, and wept on his neck a good while. Israel said to Joseph, "Now let me die, since I have seen your face, that you are still alive."

Salmo responsoriale

Psalm 37:3-4, 18-19, 27-28, 39-40

Trust in the LORD, and do good. Dwell in the land, and enjoy safe pasture. Also delight yourself in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart. The LORD knows the days of the perfect. Their inheritance shall be forever. They shall not be disappointed in the time of evil. In the days of famine they shall be satisfied. Depart from evil, and do good. Live securely forever. For the LORD loves justice, and doesn't forsake his saints. They are preserved forever, but the children of the wicked shall be cut off. But the salvation of the righteous is from the LORD. He is their stronghold in the time of trouble. The LORD helps them and rescues them. He rescues them from the wicked and saves them, because they have taken refuge in him.

Vangelo

Matthew 10:16-23

Ecco, io vi mando come pecore in mezzo de' lupi; siate dunque prudenti come serpenti, e semplici come colombe. Or guardatevi dagli uomini; perciocchè essi vi metteranno in man de' concistori, ed essi vi sferzeranno nelle lor sinagoghe. Ed anche sarete menati davanti a' rettori, e davanti ai re, per cagion mia, in testimonianza a loro, ed ai Gentili. Ma, quando essi vi metteranno nelle lor mani, non siate in sollecitudine come o che parlerete; perciocchè, in quella stessa ora, vi sarà dato ciò che avrete a parlare. Poichè non siete voi quelli che parlate, ma lo Spirito del Padre vostro è quel che parla in voi. Ora il fratello darà il fratello alla morte, e il padre il figliuolo; e i figliuoli si leveranno contro a' lor padri e madri, e li faran morire. E sarete odiati da tutti per lo mio nome; ma chi avrà sostenuto fino alla fine, sarà salvato. Ora, quando vi perseguiteranno in una città, fuggite in un'altra; perciocchè io vi dico in verità, che non avrete finito di circuire le città d'Israele, che il Figliuol dell'uomo non sia venuto.
