## Readings of the day

- Epistle

  Galatians 2:6–10

  **Show the text**

  6 But from those who were reputed to be important—whatever they were, it makes no difference to me; God doesn’t show partiality to man—they, I say, who were respected imparted nothing to me,

  7 but to the contrary, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the Good News for the uncircumcised, even as Peter with the Good News for the circumcised—

  8 for he who worked through Peter in the apostleship with the circumcised also worked through me with the Gentiles—

  9 and when they perceived the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, those who were reputed to be pillars, gave to Barnabas and me the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcision.

  10 They only asked us to remember the poor—which very thing I was also zealous to do.

- Gospel

  Luke 6:17–23

  **Show the text**

  17 He came down with them, and stood on a level place, with a crowd of his disciples, and a great number of the people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him and to be healed of their diseases;

  18 as well as those who were troubled by unclean spirits, and they were being healed.

  19 All the multitude sought to touch him, for power came out of him and healed them all.

  20 He lifted up his eyes to his disciples, and said, “Blessed are you who are poor, God’s Kingdom is yours.

  21 Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.

  22 Blessed are you when men hate you, and when they exclude and mock you, and throw out your name as evil, for the Son of Man’s sake.

  23 Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven, for their fathers did the same thing to the prophets.
