The Readings from the Regular Cycle
Lectura apostólica
The Epistle
Thursday of the 17th Week
Lectura
The reading is from Paul’s Letter to the Ephesians.
Eph. 4:14 – 17
[CA-SAOGM]
Brethren, we are no longer to be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the cunning of men, by their craftiness in deceitful wiles. Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by every joint with which it is supplied, when each part is working properly, makes bodily growth and up builds itself in love. Now this I affirm and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the other Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds. [RSV]
Evangelio
The Gospel
Jueves de la Quinta Semana de Lucas
Thursday of the 5th Week of Luke
Lectura del santo Evangelio según san Lucas.
The reading is from the holy Gospel according to Luke.
Lc. 9:49-56
Lk. 9:49 – 56
En aquel tiempo, uno de los discípulos tomó la palabra y le dijo: «Maestro, hemos visto a uno que expulsaba demonios en tu nombre y tratamos de impedírselo, porque no viene con nosotros.» Pero Jesús le contestó: «No se lo impidan, pues el que no está contra ustedes, está por ustedes.» Como se iban cumpliendo los días de su asunción, él se afirmó en su voluntad de ir a Jerusalén. Así que envió mensajeros por delante, que fueron y entraron en un pueblo de samaritanos para prepararle posada. Pero no lo recibieron, porque tenía intención de ir a Jerusalén. Ante la negativa, sus discípulos Santiago y Juan dijeron: «Señor, ¿quieres que mandemos bajar fuego del cielo y los consuma?» Pero Jesús se volvió y les reprendió; y se fueron a otro pueblo. [BJ-SAOGM]
At that time, one of Jesus’ disciples came to him and said, “Master, we saw a man casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he does not follow with us.” But Jesus said to him, “Do not forbid him; for he that is not against you is for you.” When the days drew near for him to be received up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem. And he sent messengers ahead of him, who went and entered a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him; but the people would not receive him, because his face was set toward Jerusalem. And when his disciples James and John saw it, they said, “Lord, do you want us to bid fire come down from heaven and consume them as Elijah did?” But he turned and rebuked them and he said, “You do not know what manner of spirit you are of; for the Son of man came not to destroy men’s lives but to save them”. And they went on to another village. [RSV]

Lectura apostólica
The Epistle
Por el profeta.
For the Prophet.
Lectura de la carta de san Pablo a los Hebreos.
The reading is from Paul’s Letter to the Hebrews.
Hb. 11:33-40; 12:1-2
Heb. 11:33 – 40; 12:1 – 2
Hermanos, todos los santos, por la fe, sometieron reinos, administraron justicia, alcanzaron las promesas y cerraron la boca a los leones; apagaron la violencia del fuego, escaparon al filo de la espada, curaron de sus enfermedades, fueron valientes en la guerra y rechazaron ejércitos extranjeros. Gracias a ellos, algunas mujeres recobraron resucitados a sus muertos. Unos fueron torturados, rehusando la liberación por conseguir una resurrección mejor; otros soportaron la prueba de burlas y azotes, de cadenas y prisiones. Fueron apedreados, torturados, aserrados, muertos a espada; anduvieron errantes, cubiertos de pieles de ovejas y de cabras; se vieron faltos de todo; fueron oprimidos y maltratados. Hombres de los que no era digno el mundo anduvieron errantes por desiertos y montañas, por grutas y cavernas. Y todos ellos, aunque alabados por su fe, no consiguieron el objeto de las promesas. Dios tenía dispuesto algo mejor para nosotros, de modo que no llegaran ellos sin nosotros a la perfección. Por tanto, también nosotros, teniendo en torno nuestro tan gran nube de testigos, sacudamos todo lastre y el pecado que nos asedia, y corramos con constancia la carrera que se nos propone, con los ojos fijos en Jesús, que inicia y lleva a la perfección la fe. [BJ-SAOGM]
Brethren, all the saints through faith conquered kingdoms, enforced justice, received promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched raging fire, escaped the edge of the sword, won strength out of weakness, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight. Women received their dead by resurrection. Some were tortured, refusing to accept release, that they might rise again to a better life. Others suffered mocking and scourging, and even chains and imprisonment. They were stoned, they were sawn in two, they were tempted, they were killed with the sword; they went about in skins of sheep and goats, destitute, afflicted, ill-treated — of whom the world was not worthy — wandering over deserts and mountains and in dens and caves of the earth. And all these, though well attested by their faith, did not receive what was promised, since God had foreseen something better for us, that apart from us they should not be made perfect. Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin that easily distracts, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus the pioneer and perfecter of faith. [RSV]
