The Lord does just deeds,
gives full justice to all who are oppressed.
He made known his ways to Moses,
and his deeds to the children of Israel. R/.

slow to anger and rich in mercy.
He does not treat us according to our sins,
nor repay us according to our faults. R/.

GOSPEL
“You are the light of the world.”
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Matthew (Matthew 5:13- 16)

At that time: Jesus said to his disciples, “You are the salt of the earth; but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trodden under foot by men. “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”

The Gospel of the Lord.
