Daily Mass Readings for September 13 2023, Wednesday of the Twenty-third Week in Ordinary Time
1st Reading – Colossians 3:1-11
Brothers and sisters:
1 If you have risen together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.
2 Consider the things that are above, not the things that are upon the earth.
3 For you have died, and so your life is hidden with Christ in God.
4 When Christ, your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.
5 Therefore, mortify your body, while it is upon the earth. For because of fornication, impurity, lust, evil desires, and avarice, which are a kind of service to idols,
6 the wrath of God has overwhelmed the sons of unbelief.
7 You, too, walked in these things, in times past, when you were living among them.
8 But now you must set aside all these things: anger, indignation, malice, blasphemy, and indecent speech from your mouth.
9 Do not lie to one another. Strip yourselves of the old man, with his deeds,
10 and clothe yourself with the new man, who has been renewed by knowledge, in accord with the image of the One who created him,
11 where there is neither Gentile nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian nor Scythian, servant nor free. Instead, Christ is everything, in everyone.
Responsorial Psalm – Psalms 145:2-3, 10-11, 12-13AB
R. (9) The Lord is compassionate toward all his works.
2 Every day will I bless you,
and I will praise your name forever and ever.
3 Great is the LORD and highly to be praised;
his greatness is unsearchable.
R. The Lord is compassionate toward all his works.
10 Let all your works give you thanks, O LORD,
and let your faithful ones bless you.
11 Let them discourse of the glory of your Kingdom
and speak of your might.
R. The Lord is compassionate toward all his works.
12 Making known to men your might
and the glorious splendor of your Kingdom.
13AB Your Kingdom is a Kingdom for all ages,
and your dominion endures through all generations.
R. The Lord is compassionate toward all his works.
Alleluia – Luke 6:23AB
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
23AB Rejoice and leap for joy!
Your reward will be great in heaven.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Gospel – Luke 6:20-26
20 Raising his eyes toward his disciples Jesus said:
“Blessed are you who are poor, for the Kingdom of God is yours.
21 Blessed are you who are now hungry, for you will be satisfied.
Blessed are you who are now weeping, for you will laugh.
22 Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude and insult you, and denounce your name as evil on account of the Son of Man.
23 “Rejoice and leap for joy on that day! Behold, your reward will be great in heaven. For their ancestors treated the prophets in the same way.
24 But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation.
25 But woe to you who are filled now, for you will be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will grieve and weep.
26 Woe to you when all speak well of you, for their ancestors treated the false prophets in this way.”
