Tuesday of the 2nd week of Lent

10Hear the word of the Lord, ye rulers of Sodom, give ear to the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrha.

…

16Wash yourselves, be clean, take away the evil of your devices from my eyes: cease to do perversely, 17Learn to do well: seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge for the fatherless, defend the widow. 18And then come, and accuse me, saith the Lord: if your sins be as scarlet, they shall be made as white as snow: and if they be red as crimson, they shall be white as wool. 19If you be willing, and will hearken to me, you shall eat the good things of the land. 20But if you will not, and will provoke me to wrath: the sword shall devour you because the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.

8I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices: and thy burnt offerings are always in my sight.

9I will not take calves out of thy house: nor he goats out of thy flocks.

…

16But to the sinner God hath said: Why dost thou declare my justices, and take my covenant in thy mouth?

17Seeing thou hast hated discipline: and hast cast my words behind thee.

…

21These things hast thou done, and I was silent. Thou thoughtest unjustly that I should be like to thee: but I will reprove thee, and set before thy face.

…

23The sacrifice of praise shall glorify me: and there is the way by which I will shew him the salvation of God.

1Then Jesus spoke to the multitudes and to his disciples, 2Saying: The scribes and the Pharisees have sitten on the chair of Moses. 3All things therefore whatsoever they shall say to you, observe and do: but according to their works do ye not; for they say, and do not. 4For they bind heavy and insupportable burdens, and lay them on men's shoulders; but with a finger of their own they will not move them. 5And all their works they do for to be seen of men. For they make their phylacteries broad, and enlarge their fringes. 6And they love the first places at feasts, and the first chairs in the synagogues, 7And salutations in the market place, and to be called by men, Rabbi. 8But be not you called Rabbi. For one is your master; and all you are brethren. 9And call none your father upon earth; for one is your father, who is in heaven. 10Neither be ye called masters; for one is you master, Christ. 11He that is the greatest among you shall be your servant. 12And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled: and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
