Tuesday of the 17th week of Ordinary Time

33:7Moses also taking the tabernacle, pitched it without the camp afar off, and called the name thereof, The tabernacle of the covenant. And all the people that had any question, went forth to the tabernacle of the covenant, without the camp. 8And when Moses went forth to the tabernacle, all the people rose up, and every one stood in the door of his pavilion, and they beheld the back of Moses, till he went into the tabernacle. 9And when he was gone into the tabernacle of the covenant, the pillar of the cloud came down, and stood at the door, and he spoke with Moses. 10And all saw that the pillar of the cloud stood at the door of the tabernacle. And they stood, and worshipped at the doors of their tents. 11And the Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as a man is wont to speak to his friend. And when he returned into the camp, his servant Josue the son of Nun, a young man, departed not from the tabernacle.

34:5And when the Lord was come down in a cloud, Moses stood with him, calling upon the name of the Lord. 6And when he passed before him, he said: O the Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, patient and of much compassion, and true, 7Who keepest mercy unto thousands: who takest away iniquity, and wickedness, and sin, and no man of himself is innocent before thee. Who renderest the iniquity of the fathers to the children, and to the grandchildren, unto the third and fourth generation. 8And Moses making haste, bowed down prostrate unto the earth, and adoring, 9Said: If I have found grace in thy sight: O Lord, I beseech thee, that thou wilt go with us, (for it is a stiffnecked people,) and take away our iniquities and sin, and possess us.

…

28And he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights: he neither ate bread nor drank water, and he wrote upon the tables the ten words of the covenant.

6The Lord doth mercies, and judgment for all that suffer wrong.

7He hath made his ways known to Moses: his wills to the children of Israel.

8The ford is compassionate and merciful: longsuffering and plenteous in mercy.

9He will not always be angry: nor will he threaten for ever.

10He hath not dealt with us according to our sins: nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.

11For according to the height of the heaven above the earth: he hath strengthened his mercy towards them that fear him.

12As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our iniquities from us.

13As a father hath compassion on his children, so hath the Lord compassion on them that fear him:

36Then having sent away the multitudes, he came into the house, and his disciples came to him, saying: Expound to us the parable of the cockle of the field. 37Who made answer and said to them: He that soweth the good seed, is the Son of man. 38And the field, is the world. And the good seed are the children of the kingdom. And the cockle, are the children of the wicked one. 39And the enemy that sowed them, is the devil. But the harvest is the end of the world. And the reapers are the angels. 40Even as cockle therefore is gathered up, and burnt with fire: so shall it be at the end of the world. 41The Son of man shall send his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all scandals, and them that work iniquity. 42And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43Then shall the just shine as the sun, in the kingdom of their Father. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
