Readings, Responsorial and Gospel
Reading 1 - Ex 20:1-3, 7-8, 12-17
In those days, God delivered all these commandments: “I, the LORD am your God, who brought you out of the
land of Egypt, that place of slavery. You shall not have other gods besides me. “You shall not take the name of
the LORD, your God, in vain. For the LORD will not leave unpunished the one who takes his name in vain.
“Remember to keep holy the sabbath day. Honor your father and your mother, that you may have a long life in
the land which the Lord, your God, is giving you. You shall not kill. You shall not commit adultery. You shall
not steal. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor. You shall not covet your neighbor’s house.
You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male or female slave, nor his ox or ass, nor anything else that
belongs to him.”
Responsorial Psalm - 19:8, 9, 10, 11
R. Lord, you have the words of everlasting life.
The law of the LORD is perfect, refreshing the soul; The decree of the LORD is trustworthy, giving wisdom to the
simple.
R. Lord, you have the words of everlasting life.
The precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; the command of the LORD is clear, enlightening the eye.
R. Lord, you have the words of everlasting life.
The fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever; the ordinances of the LORD are true, all of them just.
R. Lord, you have the words of everlasting life.
They are more precious than gold, than a heap of purest gold; sweeter also than syrup or honey from the comb.
R. Lord, you have the words of everlasting life.
Reading 2 - 1 Cor 1:22-25
Brothers and sisters: Jews demand signs and Greeks look for wisdom, but we proclaim Christ crucified, a stumbling
block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, but to those who are called, Jews and Greeks alike, Christ the power of God
and the wisdom of God.
For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength.
Gospel - Jn 2:13-25
Since the Passover of the Jews was near, Jesus went up to Jerusalem. He found in the temple area those who sold
oxen, sheep, and doves, as well as the money changers seated there. He made a whip out of cords and drove
them all out of the temple area, with the sheep and oxen, and spilled the coins of the money changers and over-
turned their tables, and to those who sold doves he said, “Take these out of here, and stop making my Father’s
house a marketplace.” His disciples recalled the words of Scripture, Zeal for your house will consume me. At
this the Jews answered and said to him, “What sign can you show us for doing this?” Jesus answered and said to
them, “Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up.”
The Jews said, “This temple has been under construction for forty-six years, and you will raise it up in three
days?”
But he was speaking about the temple of his body. Therefore, when he was raised from the dead, his disciples
remembered that he had said this, and they came to believe the Scripture and the word Jesus had spoken. While
he was in Jerusalem for the feast of Passover, many began to believe in his name when they saw the signs he was
doing. But Jesus would not trust himself to them because he knew them all, and did not need anyone to testify
about human nature. He himself understood it well.

Eph 5:8-14; Jn 9:1-41[1, 6-9, 13-17, 34-38] brated at Easter—occupies an important place in our cycle
of Lenten readings. The notion of covenant as a relation-
ship between two parties carries with it an expectation of
mutual accountability and fidelity to the terms of the cove-
nant. When God forged the covenant with the Jewish peo-
ple on Mt. Sinai, it was a pledge of God’s protection, and it
would forever permit them familiar access as the Chosen
People. For their part, the Jewish people were to observe
the dictates of the law, summarized most succinctly here in
Please pray for the sick: the form of the Ten Commandments. To be in a covenantal
relationship with the Lord God requires an exclusive rela-
tionship, just as discipleship with Jesus—ritualized in bap-

Lecturas
Primera lectura - Ex 20, 1-3. 7-8. 12-17
En aquellos días, el Señor promulgó estos preceptos para su pueblo en el monte Sinaí, diciendo: “Yo soy el Señor,
tu Dios, que te sacó de la tierra de Egipto y de la esclavitud. No tendrás otros dioses fuera de mí.
No harás mal uso del nombre del Señor, tu Dios, porque no dejará el Señor sin castigo a quien haga mal uso de su
nombre. Acuérdate de santificar el sábado.
Honra a tu padre y a tu madre para que vivas largos años en la tierra que el Señor, tu Dios, te va a dar. No mata-
rás. No cometerás adulterio. No robarás. No darás falso testimonio contra tu prójimo. No codiciarás la casa de tu
prójimo, ni a su mujer, ni a su esclavo, ni a su esclava, ni su buey, ni su burro, ni cosa alguna que le pertenezca’’.
Salmo Responsorial - Salmo 18, 8. 9. 10. 11
R. Tú tienes, Señor, palabras de vida eterna.
La ley del Señor es perfecta del todo y reconforto el alma; inmutables son las palabras del Señor y hacen sabio al sencillo. R.
R. Tú tienes, Señor, palabras de vida eterna.
En los mandamientos del Señor hay rectitude y alegría para el corazón; son luz los receptos del Señor para alumbrar el camino. R.
R. Tú tienes, Señor, palabras de vida eterna.
La voluntad del Señor es santa y para siempre estable; los mandamientos del Señor son verdaderos y enteramente justos. R.
R. Tú tienes, Señor, palabras de vida eterna.
Que te sean gratas las palabras de mi boca y los anhelos de mi corazón. Haz, Señor, que siempre te busque, pues eres mi refugio y
salvación. R.
R. Tú tienes, Señor, palabras de vida eterna.
Segunda lectura - 1 Cor 1, 22-25
Hermanos: Los judíos exigen señales milagrosas y los paganos piden sabiduría. Pero nosotros predicamos a Cristo cru-
cificado, que es escándalo para los judíos y locura para los paganos; en cambio, para los llamados, sean judíos o pa-
ganos, Cristo es la fuerza y la sabiduría de Dios. Porque la locura de Dios es más sabia que la sabiduría de los hombres,
y la debilidad de Dios es más fuerte que la fuerza de los hombres.
Evangelio - Jn 2, 13-25
Cuando se acercaba la Pascua de los judíos, Jesús llegó a Jerusalén y encontró en el templo a los vendedores de
bueyes, ovejas y palomas, y a los cambistas con sus mesas. Entonces hizo un látigo de cordeles y los echó del
templo, con todo y sus ovejas y bueyes; a los cambistas les volcó las mesas y les tiró al suelo las monedas; y a los
que vendían palomas les dijo: “Quiten todo de aquí y no conviertan en un mercado la casa de mi Padre”.
En ese momento, sus discípulos se acordaron de lo que estaba escrito: El celo de tu casa me devora.
Después intervinieron los judíos para preguntarle: “¿Qué señal nos das de que tienes autoridad para actuar así?”
Jesús les respondió: “Destruyan este templo y en tres días lo reconstruiré”. Replicaron los judíos: “Cuarenta y seis
años se ha llevado la construcción del templo, ¿y tú lo vas a levantar en tres días?”
Pero él hablaba del templo de su cuerpo. Por eso, cuando resucitó Jesús de entre los muertos, se acordaron sus
discípulos de que había dicho aquello y creyeron en la Escritura y en las palabras que Jesús había dicho.
Mientras estuvo en Jerusalén para las fiestas de Pascua, muchos creyeron en él, al ver los prodigios que hacía.
Pero Jesús no se fiaba de ellos, porque los conocía a todos y no necesitaba que nadie le descubriera lo que es el
hombre, porque él sabía lo que hay en el hombre.
