First Reading

Wisdom 1:13-15; 2:23-24

1:13For God made not death, neither hath he pleasure in the destruction of the living. 14For he created all things that they might be: and he made the nations of the earth for health: and there is no poison of destruction in them, nor kingdom of hell upon the earth. 15For justice is perpetual and immortal.

2:23For God created man incorruptible, and to the image of his own likeness he made him. 24But by the envy of the devil, death came into the world:

Responsorial Psalm

Psalm 30:2, 4, 5-6, 11, 12, 13

2I will extol thee, O Lord, for thou hast upheld me: and hast not made my enemies to rejoice over me.

4Thou hast brought forth, O Lord, my soul from hell: thou hast saved me from them that go down into the pit.

5Sing to the Lord, O ye his saints: and give praise to the memory of his holiness.

6For wrath is in his indignation; and life in his good will. In the evening weeping shall have place, and in the morning gladness.

11The Lord hath heard, and hath had mercy on me: the Lord became my helper.

12Thou hast turned for me my mourning into joy: thou hast cut my sackcloth, and hast compassed me with gladness:

13To the end that my glory may sing to thee, and I may not regret: O Lord my God, I will give praise to thee for ever.

Second Reading

2 Corinthians 8:7, 9, 13-15

7That as in all things you abound in faith, and word, and knowledge, and all carefulness; moreover also in your charity towards us, so in this grace also you may abound.

9For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that being rich he became poor, for your sakes; that through his poverty you might be rich.

13For I mean not that others should be eased, and you burthened, but by an equality. 14In this present time let your abundance supply their want, that their abundance also may supply your want, that there may be an equality, 15As it is written: He that had much, had nothing over; and he that had little, had no want.

Gospel

Mark 5:21-43 or 5:21-24, 35b-43

21And when Jesus had passed again in the ship over the strait, a great multitude assembled together unto him, and he was nigh unto the sea. 22And there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue named Jairus: and seeing him, falleth down at his feet. 23And he besought him much, saying: My daughter is at the point of death, come, lay thy hand upon her, that she may be safe, and may live. 24And he went with him, and a great multitude followed him, and they thronged him. 25And a woman who was under an issue of blood twelve years, 26And had suffered many things from many physicians; and had spent all that she had, and was nothing the better, but rather worse, 27When she had heard of Jesus, came in the crowd behind him, and touched his garment. 28For she said: If I shall touch but his garment, I shall be whole. 29And forthwith the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of the evil. 30And immediately Jesus knowing in himself the virtue that had proceeded from him, turning to the multitude, said: Who hath touched my garments? 31And his disciples said to him: Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou who hath touched me? 32And he looked about to see her who had done this. 33But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth. 34And he said to her: Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole: go in peace, and be thou whole of thy disease. 35While he was yet speaking, some come from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying: Thy daughter is dead: why dost thou trouble the master any further? 36But Jesus having heard the word that was spoken, saith to the ruler of the synagogue: Fear not, only believe. 37And he admitted not any man to follow him, but Peter, and James, and John the brother of James. 38And they come to the house of the ruler of the synagogue; and he seeth a tumult, and people weeping and wailing much. 39And going in, he saith to them: Why make you this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth. 40And they laughed him to scorn. But he having put them all out, taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying. 41And taking the damsel by the hand, he saith to her: Talitha cumi, which is, being interpreted: Damsel (I say to thee) arise. 42And immediately the damsel rose up, and walked: and she was twelve years old: and they were astonished with a great astonishment. 43And he charged them strictly that no man should know it: and commanded that something should be given her to eat.
