Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 82:3-4, 6-7

Douay-Rheims: Psalm 81:3-4, 6-7 (Psalm 82 at Mass)

³Judge for the needy and fatherless: do justice to the humble and the poor. ⁴Rescue the poor; and deliver the needy out of the hand of the sinner.

⁶I have said: You are gods and all of you the sons of the most High. ⁷But you like men shall die: and shall fall like one of the princes.

Gospel: Luke 17:11-19

Douay-Rheims: Luke 17:11-19

¹¹And it came to pass, as he was going to Jerusalem, he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. ¹²And as he entered into a certain town, there met him ten men that were lepers, who stood afar off; ¹³And lifted up their voice, saying: Jesus, master, have mercy on us. ¹⁴Whom when he saw, he said: Go, shew yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass, as they went, they were made clean. ¹⁵And one of them, when he saw that he was made clean, went back, with a loud voice glorifying God. ¹⁶And he fell on his face before his feet, giving thanks: and this was a Samaritan. ¹⁷And Jesus answering, said, Were not ten made clean? and where are the nine? ¹⁸There is no one found to return and give glory to God, but this stranger. ¹⁹And he said to him: Arise, go thy way; for thy faith hath made thee whole.

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.
