First reading: 2 Corinthians 1:18-22

Douay-Rheims: 2 Corinthians 1:18-22

¹⁸But God is faithful, for our preaching which was to you, was not, It is, and It is not. ¹⁹For the Son of God, Jesus Christ who was preached among you by us, by me, and Sylvanus, and Timothy, was not, It is and It is not, but, It is, was in him. ²⁰For all the promises of God are in him, It is; therefore also by him, amen to God, unto our glory. ²¹Now he that confirmeth us with you in Christ, and that hath anointed us, is God: ²²Who also hath sealed us, and given the pledge of the Spirit in our hearts.

Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 119:129, 130, 131, 132, 133, 135

Douay-Rheims: Psalm 118:129-133, 135 (Psalm 119 at Mass)

¹²⁹Thy testimonies are wonderful: therefore my soul hath sought them. ¹³⁰The declaration of thy words giveth light: and giveth understanding to little ones. ¹³¹I opened my mouth and panted: because I longed for thy commandments. ¹³²Look thou upon me, and have mercy on me, according to the judgment of them that love thy name. ¹³³Direct my steps according to thy word: and let no iniquity have dominion over me.

¹³⁵Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: and teach me thy justifications.

Gospel: Matthew 5:13-16

Douay-Rheims: Matthew 5:13-16

¹³You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt lose its savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is good for nothing any more but to be cast out, and to be trodden on by men. ¹⁴You are the light of the world. A city seated on a mountain cannot be hid. ¹⁵Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but upon a candlestick, that it may shine to all that are in the house. ¹⁶So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

The same passages in the Douay-Rheims Bible (Challoner revision), the translation we use on this site. The words read at Mass come from the Lectionary for Mass and differ. Where a reading begins or ends partway through a verse, the whole verse is shown. For the official text, open the readings on the USCCB site.
