Saturday of the 2nd week of Ordinary Time

2For a tabernacle was made at first, in which were the lampstand, and the table, and the bread of the Presence, which is called Holy. 3Then, beyond the second veil, was the tabernacle, which is called the Holy of Holies,

11But Christ, standing as the High Priest of future good things, through a greater and more perfect tabernacle, one not made by hand, that is, not of this creation, 12entered once into the Holy of Holies, having obtained eternal redemption, neither by the blood of goats, nor of calves, but by his own blood. 13For if the blood of goats and oxen, and the ashes of a calf, when these are sprinkled, sanctify those who have been defiled, in order to cleanse the flesh, 14how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the Holy Spirit has offered himself, immaculate, to God, cleanse our conscience from dead works, in order to serve the living God?

2All nations, clap your hands. Shout joyfully to God with a voice of exultation.

3For the Lord is exalted and terrible: a great King over all the earth.

…

6God ascends with jubilation, and the Lord with the voice of the trumpet.

7Sing psalms to our God, sing psalms. Sing psalms to our King, sing psalms.

8For God is the King of all the earth. Sing psalms wisely.

9God will reign over the peoples. God sits upon his holy throne.
