Reading I (Wis 1:13-15; 2:23-24)
A reading from the Book of Wisdom
God did not make death,
nor does he rejoice in the destruction of the living.
For he fashioned all things that they might have being;
and the creatures of the world are wholesome,
and there is not a destructive drug among them
nor any domain of the netherworld on earth,
for justice is undying.
For God formed man to be imperishable;
the image of his own nature he made him.
But by the envy of the devil, death entered the world,
and they who belong to his company experience it.
The word of the Lord.
Bài Ðọc I: (G Kn 1, 13-15; 2, 23-25)
“Bởi ác quỷ ghen tương, nên tử thần đột nhập vào thế gian”.
Trích sách Khôn Ngoan.
Thiên Chúa không tạo dựng sự chết, chẳng vui mừng khi người sống phải chết. Người tác thành mọi sự cho có. Người tạo dựng mọi sự trên mặt đất đều lành mạnh, chúng không có nọc độc sự chết, và không có địa ngục ở trần gian.
Vì chưng, công chính thì vĩnh cửu và bất tử. Thiên Chúa đã tạo dựng con người giống hình ảnh Chúa, để sống vĩnh viễn. Nhưng bởi ác quỷ ghen tương, nên tử thần đột nhập vào thế gian: kẻ nào thuộc về nó thì bắt chước nó.
Ðó là lời Chúa.
Responsorial Psalm (Ps 30:2, 4, 5-6, 11, 12, 13)
R. (2a) I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me.
Ðáp: Lạy Chúa, con ca tụng Chúa vì đã giải thoát con (c. 2a).
I will extol you, O LORD, for you drew me clear
and did not let my enemies rejoice over me.
O LORD, you brought me up from the netherworld;
you preserved me from among those going down into the pit.
R. I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me.
Xướng: Lạy Chúa, con ca tụng Chúa vì đã giải thoát con, và không để quân thù hoan hỉ về con. Lạy Chúa, Chúa đã đưa linh hồn con thoát xa âm phủ; Ngài đã cứu con khỏi số người đang bước xuống mồ.
Sing praise to the LORD, you his faithful ones,
and give thanks to his holy name.
For his anger lasts but a moment;
a lifetime, his good will.
At nightfall, weeping enters in,
but with the dawn, rejoicing.
R. I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me.
Xướng: Các tín đồ của Chúa, hãy đàn ca mừng Ngài, và hãy cảm tạ thánh danh Ngài. Vì cơn giận của Ngài chỉ lâu trong giây phút, nhưng lòng nhân hậu của Ngài vẫn có suốt đời.
Hear, O LORD, and have pity on me;
O LORD, be my helper.
You changed my mourning into dancing;
O LORD, my God, forever will I give you thanks.
R. I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me.
Xướng: Lạy Chúa, xin nhậm lời và xót thương con. Lạy Chúa, xin Ngài gia ân cứu giúp con. Chúa đã biến đổi lời than khóc thành khúc nhạc cho con; Lạy Chúa là Thiên Chúa của con, con sẽ tán tụng Chúa tới muôn đời.
Reading II (2 Cor 8:7, 9, 13-15)
A reading from the second Letter of Saint Paul to the Corinthians
Brothers and sisters:
As you excel in every respect, in faith, discourse,
knowledge, all earnestness, and in the love we have for you,
may you excel in this gracious act also.
For you know the gracious act of our Lord Jesus Christ,
that though he was rich, for your sake he became poor,
so that by his poverty you might become rich.
Not that others should have relief while you are burdened,
but that as a matter of equality
your abundance at the present time should supply their needs,
so that their abundance may also supply your needs,
that there may be equality.
As it is written:
Whoever had much did not have more,
and whoever had little did not have less.
The word of the Lord.
Bài Ðọc II: 2 Cr 8, 7. 9. 13-15
“Sự dư thừa của anh em bù đắp lại sự thiếu thốn của những anh em nghèo khó”.
Trích thư thứ hai của Thánh Phaolô Tông đồ gửi tín hữu Côrintô.
Anh em thân mến, cũng như anh em vượt trổi về mọi mặt: về lòng tin, về hùng biện, về sự hiểu biết, về mọi hình thức nhiệt thành, cũng như về lòng bác ái của anh em, thì anh em cũng phải vượt trổi trong việc phúc đức này.
Vì anh em biết lòng quảng đại của Ðức Giêsu Kitô, Chúa chúng ta: mặc dù giàu sang, Người đã nên thân phận nghèo khó, để nhờ việc nghèo khó của Người, anh em nên giàu có. Nhưng không lẽ để cho kẻ khác được thư thái, mà anh em phải túng thiếu, nhưng phải làm sao cho đồng đều. Trong hoàn cảnh hiện tại, sự dư giả của anh em bù đắp lại chỗ thiếu thốn của họ, để sự dư giả của họ bù đắp lại sự thiếu thốn của anh em, hầu có sự đồng đều như lời đã chép rằng: “Kẻ được nhiều, thì cũng không dư; mà kẻ có ít, cũng không thiếu”.
Ðó là lời Chúa.
Alleluia (Cf. 2 Tm 1:10)
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Our Savior Jesus Christ destroyed death
and brought life to light through the Gospel.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Alleluia: (xc 2 Tm 1:10)
Alleluia, alleluia! – Chính Đức Ki-tô đã tiêu diệt thần chết, và đã dùng Tin Mừng mà làm sáng tỏ phúc trường sinh bất tử. – Alleluia.
Gospel (Mk 5:21-43)
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Saint Mark
When Jesus had crossed again in the boat
to the other side,
a large crowd gathered around him, and he stayed close to the sea.
One of the synagogue officials, named Jairus, came forward.
Seeing him he fell at his feet and pleaded earnestly with him, saying,
“My daughter is at the point of death.
Please, come lay your hands on her
that she may get well and live.”
He went off with him,
and a large crowd followed him and pressed upon him.
There was a woman afflicted with hemorrhages for twelve years.
She had suffered greatly at the hands of many doctors
and had spent all that she had.
Yet she was not helped but only grew worse.
She had heard about Jesus and came up behind him in the crowd
and touched his cloak.
She said, “If I but touch his clothes, I shall be cured.”
Immediately her flow of blood dried up.
She felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction.
Jesus, aware at once that power had gone out from him,
turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who has touched my clothes?”
But his disciples said to Jesus,
“You see how the crowd is pressing upon you,
and yet you ask, ‘Who touched me?’”
And he looked around to see who had done it.
The woman, realizing what had happened to her,
approached in fear and trembling.
She fell down before Jesus and told him the whole truth.
He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has saved you.
Go in peace and be cured of your affliction.”
While he was still speaking,
people from the synagogue official’s house arrived and said,
“Your daughter has died; why trouble the teacher any longer?”
Disregarding the message that was reported,
Jesus said to the synagogue official,
“Do not be afraid; just have faith.”
He did not allow anyone to accompany him inside
except Peter, James, and John, the brother of James.
When they arrived at the house of the synagogue official,
he caught sight of a commotion,
people weeping and wailing loudly.
So he went in and said to them,
“Why this commotion and weeping?
The child is not dead but asleep.”
And they ridiculed him.
Then he put them all out.
He took along the child’s father and mother
and those who were with him
and entered the room where the child was.
He took the child by the hand and said to her, “Talitha koum,”
which means, “Little girl, I say to you, arise!”
The girl, a child of twelve, arose immediately and walked around.
At that they were utterly astounded.
He gave strict orders that no one should know this
and said that she should be given something to eat.
The Gospel of the Lord.
