FIRST READING   

Revelation 14:1-3, 4b-5

“They had the name of Christ and his Father written on their foreheads.”

A reading from the book of Revelation

I, John, looked, and behold on Mount Sion stood the Lamb, and with him a hundred and forty-four thousand who had his name and his Father’s name written on their foreheads. And I heard a voice from heaven like the sound of many waters and like the sound of loud thunder; the voice I heard was like the sound of harpists playing on their harps and they sing a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and before the elders. No one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who had been redeemed from the earth. It is these who follow the Lamb wherever he goes; these have been redeemed from mankind as first fruits for God and the Lamb, and in their mouth no lie was found, for they are spotless.

V/ The word of the Lord.

R/ Thanks be to God.
