TWENTY-SIXTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME — Year C

First Reading: Amos 6:1, 4-7

A reading from the book of the prophet Amos.

Woe to the complacent in Zion!
Lying upon beds of ivory,
stretched comfortably on their couches,
They eat lambs taken from the flock,
and calves from the stall!
improvising to the music of the harp,
like David, they devise their own accompaniment.
They drink wine from bowls
and anoint themselves with the best oils;
yet they are not made ill by the collapse of Joseph!
Therefore, now they shall be the first to go into exile,
and their wanton revelry shall be done away with.

The Word of God recorded in the book of the prophet Amos.

TWENTY-SIXTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME — Year C

Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 146

R: Praise God, O my soul!

Adonai, You keep faith forever,

secure justice for the oppressed,

You give food to the hungry.

Adonai, You set captives free.

R: Praise God, O my soul!

You give sight to the blind.

You raise up those that were bowed down

And love the just.

You protect strangers.

R: Praise God, O my soul!

The orphan and widow You sustain,

but the way of the wicked You thwart.

The Most High will reign forever;

your God, O Zion, through all generations. Alleluia.

R: Praise God, O my soul!
