FIRST READING
A reading from the Book of Isaiah 50:4-9a
I hid not my face from shame and spitting. (Third song of the servant of the Lord)
The Lord God has given me the tongue of those who are taught,that I may know how to sustain with a word him that is weary.Morning by morning he wakens, he wakens my ear to hear as those who are taught. The Lord God has opened my ear, and I was not rebellious, I turned not backward. I gave my back to those who struck me, and my cheeks to those who pulled out
the beard; I hid not my face from shame and spitting. For the Lord God helps me; therefore I have not been confounded; therefore I have set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be put to shame; he who vindicates me is near. Who will contend with me? Let us stand up together. Who is my adversary? Let him come near to me. Behold, the Lord God helps me; who will declare me guilty?
V/ The word of the Lord.
R/ Thanks be to God.
