THE SONG OF JUDITH

You sent out your breath and it formed them:
no one is able to resist your voice.
Mountains and seas are stirred to their depths:
rocks melt like wax at your presence.
But to those who revere you:
you will continue to show mercy.
Amen.

Gospel Reading - Forgiveness

1“There will always be temptations to sin,” Jesus said one day to his disciples, “but woe to the man who does the tempting. 2-3If he were thrown into the sea with a huge rock tied to his neck, he would be far better off than facing the punishment in store for those who harm these little children’s souls. I am warning you!

“Rebuke your brother if he sins, and forgive him if he is sorry. 4Even if he wrongs you seven times a day and each time turns again and asks forgiveness, forgive him.”

. . . . .Luke 17:1-4

Christ gave them as a light to the nations,*
that Christ’s salvation might reach to the ends of the earth.

The Lord's Prayer

Our Father in heaven,
     hallowed be your name,
     your kingdom come,
     your will be done,
          on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
     as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial
     and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours
     now and for ever.
Amen.
