Reading 1, Ephesians 3:14-21

¹⁴ This, then, is what I pray, kneeling before the Father,

¹⁵ from whom every fatherhood, in heaven or on earth, takes its name.

¹⁶ In the abundance of his glory may he, through his Spirit, enable you to grow firm in power with regard to your inner self,

¹⁷ so that Christ may live in your hearts through faith, and then, planted in love and built on love,

¹⁸ with all God's holy people you will have the strength to grasp the breadth and the length, the height and the depth;

¹⁹ so that, knowing the love of Christ, which is beyond knowledge, you may be filled with the utter fullness of God.

²⁰ Glory be to him whose power, working in us, can do infinitely more than we can ask or imagine;

²¹ glory be to him from generation to generation in the Church and in Christ Jesus for ever and ever. Amen.

Responsorial Psalm, Psalms 33:1-2, 4-5, 11-12, 18-19

¹ Shout for joy, you upright; praise comes well from the honest.

² Give thanks to Yahweh on the lyre, play for him on the ten-stringed lyre.

⁴ The word of Yahweh is straightforward, all he does springs from his constancy.

⁵ He loves uprightness and justice; the faithful love of Yahweh fills the earth.

¹¹ but Yahweh's own plan stands firm for ever, his heart's counsel from age to age.

¹² How blessed the nation whose God is Yahweh, the people he has chosen as his heritage.

¹⁸ But see how Yahweh watches over those who fear him, those who rely on his faithful love,

¹⁹ to rescue them from death and keep them alive in famine.
