Leituras de hoje
Primeira leitura
Genesis 41:55-57; 42:5-7a, 17-24a
When all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread, and Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, "Go to Joseph. What he says to you, do." The famine was over all the surface of the earth. Joseph opened all the store houses, and sold to the Egyptians. The famine was severe in the land of Egypt. All countries came into Egypt, to Joseph, to buy grain, because the famine was severe in all the earth. The sons of Israel came to buy among those who came, for the famine was in the land of Canaan. Joseph was the governor over the land. It was he who sold to all the people of the land. Joseph's brothers came, and bowed themselves down to him with their faces to the earth. Joseph saw his brothers, and he recognized them, but acted like a stranger to them, and spoke roughly with them. He said to them, "Where did you come from?" They said, "From the land of Canaan, to buy food." He put them all together into custody for three days. Joseph said to them the third day, "Do this, and live, for I fear God. If you are honest men, then let one of your brothers be bound in your prison; but you go, carry grain for the famine of your houses. Bring your youngest brother to me; so will your words be verified, and you won't die." They did so. They said to one another, "We are certainly guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the distress of his soul, when he begged us, and we wouldn't listen. Therefore this distress has come upon us." Reuben answered them, saying, "Didn't I tell you, saying, 'Don't sin against the child,' and you wouldn't listen? Therefore also, behold, his blood is required." They didn't know that Joseph understood them; for there was an interpreter between them. He turned himself away from them, and wept. Then he returned to them, and spoke to them, and took Simeon from among them, and bound him before their eyes.
Salmo responsorial
Psalm 33:2-3, 10-11, 18-19
Give thanks to the LORD with the lyre. Sing praises to him with the harp of ten strings. Sing to him a new song. Play skillfully with a shout of joy! The LORD brings the counsel of the nations to nothing. He makes the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect. The counsel of the LORD stands fast forever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations. Behold, the LORD's eye is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his loving kindness, to deliver their soul from death, to keep them alive in famine.
Evangelho
Matthew 10:1-7
Chamando a si os seus doze discípulos, deu-lhes autoridade sobre os espíritos imundos, para expulsá-los e para curar toda doença e toda enfermidade. Ora, os nomes dos doze apóstolos são estes: primeiro, Simão, chamado Pedro; André, seu irmão; Tiago, filho de Zebedeu; João, seu irmão; Filipe; Bartolomeu; Tomé; Mateus, o publicano; Tiago, filho de Alfeu; Lebeu, que também era chamado Tadeu; Simão, o Zelote; e Judas Iscariotes, que também o traiu. Jesus enviou estes doze e lhes ordenou, dizendo: "Não vão aos gentios, nem entrem em nenhuma cidade dos samaritanos. Vão, antes, às ovelhas perdidas da casa de Israel. Por onde forem, preguem, dizendo: 'O Reino dos Céus está próximo!'
