| First Reading: Exodus 34:4b-6, 8-9 ‘The Lord, the Lord, a God merciful and gracious.’ | In those days: Moses rose early in the morning and went up on Mount Sinai, as the LORD had commanded him, and took in his hand two tablets of stone. The LORD descended in the cloud and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the LORD. The LORD passed before him and proclaimed, ‘The LORD, the LORD, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.’ And Moses quickly bowed his head towards the earth and worshipped. And he said, ‘If now I have found favour in your sight, O Lord, please let the Lord go in the midst of us, for it is a stiff-necked people, and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for your inheritance.’ |
| Dan 3:52. 53. 54. 55. 56. ℟52b | To be praised and highly exalted for ever! Blessed are you, O Lord, the God of our ancestors. To be praised and highly exalted for ever! Blessed is your glorious and holy name, To be praised and highly exalted for ever! Blessed are you in the temple of your holy glory, To be praised and highly exalted for ever! Blessed are you on the throne of your kingdom, To be praised and highly exalted for ever! Blessed are you who look into the depths, seated upon the cherubim, To be praised and highly exalted for ever! Blessed are you in the firmament of heaven. |
| Second Reading: 2 Corinthians 13:11-14 ‘The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit.’ | Brothers and Sisters: Rejoice. Aim for restoration, comfort one another, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you. Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the saints greet you. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. |
Gospel Acclamation Cf. Revelation 1:8 Alleluia, alleluia. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, the God who is and who was and who is to come. Alleluia. | John 3:16-18 ‘God sent his Son in order that the world might be saved through him.’ For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. |
