FIRST READING
A reading from the Book of Sirach 17:24-29
Return to the Most High and turn away from iniquity. To those who repent, God grants a return, and he encourages those whose endurance is failing, and he has appointed to them the lot of truth. Turn to the LORD and forsake your sins; pray in his presence and lessen your offences. Return to the Most High and turn away from iniquity, and hate abominations intensely. Know the justice and the judgements of God, and stand firm the lot that is set before you, in prayer to God, the Almighty. Who will sing praises to the Most High in Hades, as do those who are alive and give thanks? Tarry not in the waywardness of the ungodly, and give thanks before death. From the dead, as from one who does not exist, thanksgiving has ceased; he who is alive and well singsthe LORD’s praises. How great is the mercy of the LORD, and his forgiveness for those who turn to him!
V/ The word of the Lord.
R/ Thanks be to God.
