First Reading –\u00a0Isaiah 11<\/span><\/h4>\n

On that day,
\nA shoot shall sprout from the stump of Jesse,
\nand from his roots a bud shall blossom.
\nThe Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him:
\na Spirit of wisdom and of understanding,
\nA Spirit of counsel and of strength,
\na Spirit of knowledge and of fear of the LORD,
\nand his delight shall be the fear of the LORD.
\nNot by appearance shall he judge,
\nnor by hearsay shall he decide,
\nBut he shall judge the poor with justice,
\nand decide aright for the land’s afflicted.
\nHe shall strike the ruthless with the rod of his mouth,
\nand with the breath of his lips he shall slay the wicked.
\nJustice shall be the band around his waist,
\nand faithfulness a belt upon his hips.<\/p>\n

Then the wolf shall be a guest of the lamb,
\nand the leopard shall lie down with the kid;
\nThe calf and the young lion shall browse together,
\nwith a little child to guide them.
\nThe cow and the bear shall be neighbors,
\ntogether their young shall rest;
\nthe lion shall eat hay like the ox.
\nThe baby shall play by the cobra’s den,
\nand the child lay his hand on the adder’s lair.
\nThere shall be no harm or ruin on all my holy mountain;
\nfor the earth shall be filled with knowledge of the LORD,
\nas water covers the sea.<\/p>\n

On that day,
\nThe root of Jesse,
\nset up as a signal for the nations,
\nThe Gentiles shall seek out,
\nfor his dwelling shall be glorious.<\/p>\n

Gospel –\u00a0Luke 10<\/span><\/h4>\n

Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said,
\n“I give you praise, Father, Lord of heaven and earth,
\nfor although you have hidden these things
\nfrom the wise and the learned
\nyou have revealed them to the childlike.
\nYes, Father, such has been your gracious will.
\nAll things have been handed over to me by my Father.
\nNo one knows who the Son is except the Father,
\nand who the Father is except the Son
\nand anyone to whom the Son wishes to reveal him.”<\/p>\n

Turning to the disciples in private he said,
\n“Blessed are the eyes that see what you see.
\nFor I say to you,
\nmany prophets and kings desired to see what you see,
\nbut did not see it,
\nand to hear what you hear, but did not hear it.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
