1st Reading – Tobit 11:5-17
5 Meanwhile, Anna sat looking down the road for her son.
6 Suddenly she saw him coming and shouted out to Tobit, “Look! Our son is coming, and his friend is with him!”
7 Before they reached Tobit, Raphael said to Tobias, “Your father will be able to see again.
8 Just put the fish’s gall-bladder on his eyes like a plaster. The medicine will make the white film shrivel up so that you can peel it off, and your father will then regain his eyesight.”
9 Then Anna ran up to her son, threw her arms around him, and said to him, “Now that I have seen you again, son, I am ready to die!” And she sobbed aloud.
10 Tobit got up and stumbled out through the courtyard gate. Tobiah went up to him
11 with the fish gall in his hand, and holding him firmly, blew into his eyes.
“Courage, father,” he said. Next he smeared the medicine on his eyes, and it made them smart. Then, beginning at the corners of Tobit’s eyes,
13 Tobiah used both hands to peel off the cataracts. When Tobit saw his son, he threw his arms around him and wept.
14 He exclaimed, “I can see you, son, the light of my eyes!” Then he said: “Blessed be God, and praised be his great name, and blessed be all his holy angels. May his holy name be praised throughout all the ages,
15 Because it was he who scourged me, and it is he who has had mercy on me. Behold, I now see my son Tobiah!” Then Tobit went back in, rejoicing and praising God with full voice for everything that had happened. Tobiah told his father that the Lord God had granted him a successful journey; that he had brought back the money; and that he had married Raguel’s daughter Sarah, who would arrive shortly, for she was approaching the gate of Nineveh.
16 Tobit was excited and praised God as he went out to meet his son”s bride at the city gate. When the people of Nineveh saw Tobit walking along briskly, with no one leading him by the hand, they were amazed.
17 Before them all Tobit proclaimed how God had mercifully restored sight to his eyes.
When Tobit met Sarah, he greeted her, “Welcome, daughter! Praise God for bringing you to us, my daughter. May God bless your father, as well as you and my son Tobias. Welcome to your new home. May you always be blessed with good health and happiness. Come in, my daughter!” It was a day of great joy for all the Jews of Nineveh.

Gospel – Mark 12:35-37
35 As Jesus was teaching in the Temple, he asked the question, “How can the teachers of the Law say that the Messiah will be the descendant of David?
36 The Holy Spirit inspired David to say: ‘The Lord said to my Lord: Sit here on my right until I put your enemies under your feet.’
37 David himself called him ‘Lord’; so how can the Messiah be David’s descendant?”
