Dagli Atti degli Apostoli
At 6,8-15
Salmo Responsoriale
Dal Sal 118 (119)
Dal Vangelo secondo Giovanni
Gv 6,22-29
Il giorno dopo, la folla, rimasta dall'altra parte del mare, vide che c'era soltanto una barca e che Gesù non era salito con i suoi discepoli sulla barca, ma i suoi discepoli erano partiti da soli. Altre barche erano giunte da Tiberìade, vicino al luogo dove avevano mangiato il pane, dopo che il Signore aveva reso grazie.
Quando dunque la folla vide che Gesù non era più là e nemmeno i suoi discepoli, salì sulle barche e si diresse alla volta di Cafàrnao alla ricerca di Gesù. Lo trovarono di là dal mare e gli dissero: «Rabbì, quando sei venuto qua?».
Gesù rispose loro: «In verità, in verità io vi dico: voi mi cercate non perché avete visto dei segni, ma perché avete mangiato di quei pani e vi siete saziati. Datevi da fare non per il cibo che non dura, ma per il cibo che rimane per la vita eterna e che il Figlio dell'uomo vi darà. Perché su di lui il Padre, Dio, ha messo il suo sigillo».
Gli dissero allora: «Che cosa dobbiamo compiere per fare le opere di Dio?». Gesù rispose loro: «Questa è l'opera di Dio: che crediate in colui che egli ha mandato».

Léctio Epístolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Timotheum
2 Tim 4:1-8
Matt 5:13-19
In illo témpore: Dixit Iesus discípulis suis: Vos estis sal terræ. Quod si sal evanúerit, in quo saliétur? Ad níhilum valet ultra, nisi ut mittátur foras, et conculcétur ab homínibus. Vos estis lux mundi. Non potest cívitas abscóndi supra montem pósita. Neque accéndunt lucérnam, et ponunt eam sub módio, sed super candelábrum, ut lúceat ómnibus qui in domo sunt. Sic lúceat lux vestra coram homínibus, ut vídeant ópera vestra bona, et gloríficent Patrem vestrum, qui in coelis est. Nolíte putáre, quóniam veni sólvere legem aut prophétas: non veni sólvere, sed adimplére. Amen, quippe dico vobis, donec tránseat coelum et terra, iota unum aut unus apex non præteríbit a lege, donec ómnia fiant. Qui ergo solvent unum de mandátis istis mínimis, et docúerit sic hómines, mínimus vocábitur in regno coelórum: qui autem fécerit et docúerit, hic magnus vocábitur in regno coelórum.

The Daily Readings
1 Peter 4:12-5:14 New International Version (NIV)
Suffering for Being a Christian
12 Dear friends, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal that has come on you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. 13 But rejoice inasmuch as you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed. 14 If you are insulted because of the name of Christ, you are blessed, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. 15 If you suffer, it should not be as a murderer or thief or any other kind of criminal, or even as a meddler. 16 However, if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name. 17 For it is time for judgment to begin with God’s household; and if it begins with us, what will the outcome be for those who do not obey the gospel of God? 18 And,
“If it is hard for the righteous to be saved,
what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?”[a]
19 So then, those who suffer according to God’s will should commit themselves to their faithful Creator and continue to do good.
To the Elders and the Flock
5 To the elders among you, I appeal as a fellow elder and a witness of Christ’s sufferings who also will share in the glory to be revealed: 2 Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve; 3 not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock. 4 And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away.
5 In the same way, you who are younger, submit yourselves to your elders. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because,
“God opposes the proud
but shows favor to the humble.”[b]
6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. 7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
8 Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.
10 And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. 11 To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.
Final Greetings
12 With the help of Silas,[c] whom I regard as a faithful brother, I have written to you briefly, encouraging you and testifying that this is the true grace of God. Stand fast in it.
13 She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, sends you her greetings, and so does my son Mark. 14 Greet one another with a kiss of love.
Peace to all of you who are in Christ
