Leituras de hoje
Primeira leitura
Ruth 2:1-3, 8-11; 4:13-17
Naomi had a relative of her husband's, a mighty man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech, and his name was Boaz. Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, "Let me now go to the field, and glean among the ears of grain after him in whose sight I find favor." She said to her, "Go, my daughter." She went, and came and gleaned in the field after the reapers; and she happened to come to the portion of the field belonging to Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech. Then Boaz said to Ruth, "Listen, my daughter. Don't go to glean in another field, and don't go from here, but stay here close to my maidens. Let your eyes be on the field that they reap, and go after them. Haven't I commanded the young men not to touch you? When you are thirsty, go to the vessels, and drink from that which the young men have drawn." Then she fell on her face and bowed herself to the ground, and said to him, "Why have I found favor in your sight, that you should take knowledge of me, since I am a foreigner?" Boaz answered her, "I have been told all about what you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband, and how you have left your father, your mother, and the land of your birth, and have come to a people that you didn't know before. So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife; and he went in to her, and the LORD enabled her to conceive, and she bore a son. The women said to Naomi, "Blessed be the LORD, who has not left you today without a near kinsman. Let his name be famous in Israel. He shall be to you a restorer of life and sustain you in your old age; for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons, has given birth to him." Naomi took the child, laid him in her bosom, and became nurse to him. The women, her neighbors, gave him a name, saying, "A son is born to Naomi". They named him Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David.
Salmo responsorial
Psalm 128:1b-2, 3, 4, 5
Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways. For you will eat the labor of your hands. You will be happy, and it will be well with you. Your wife will be as a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of your house, your children like olive shoots around your table. Behold, this is how the man who fears the LORD is blessed. May the LORD bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
Evangelho
Matthew 23:1-12
Então Jesus falou às multidões e aos seus discípulos, dizendo: "Os escribas e os fariseus estão assentados na cadeira de Moisés. Portanto, tudo o que eles lhes disserem para observar, observem e façam, mas não façam as obras deles; pois eles dizem, e não fazem. Pois eles atam fardos pesados e difíceis de carregar, e os colocam sobre os ombros dos homens; mas eles mesmos não querem levantar um dedo para ajudá-los. Mas eles fazem todas as suas obras para serem vistos pelos homens. Eles alargam os seus filactérios e alongam as franjas de suas vestes, e amam o lugar de honra nos banquetes, os melhores assentos nas sinagogas, as saudações nas praças, e de serem chamados de 'Rabi, Rabi' pelos homens. Mas vocês não devem ser chamados de 'Rabi', pois um só é o Mestre de vocês, o Cristo, e todos vocês são irmãos. A ninguém na terra chamem de pai, pois um só é o Pai de vocês, aquele que está nos céus. Nem sejam chamados de guias, pois um só é o Guia de vocês, o Cristo. Mas o maior entre vocês será o seu servo. Quem se exaltar será humilhado, e quem se humilhar será exaltado.
