Reading 1, Galatians 3:1-5

¹ You stupid people in Galatia! After you have had a clear picture of Jesus Christ crucified, right in front of your eyes, who has put a spell on you?

² There is only one thing I should like you to tell me: How was it that you received the Spirit -- was it by the practice of the Law, or by believing in the message you heard?

³ Having begun in the Spirit, can you be so stupid as to end in the flesh?

⁴ Can all the favours you have received have had no effect at all -- if there really has been no effect?

⁵ Would you say, then, that he who so lavishly sends the Spirit to you, and causes the miracles among you, is doing this through your practice of the Law or because you believed the message you heard?

Responsorial Psalm, Luke 1:69-70, 71-72, 73-75

⁶⁹ and he has established for us a saving power in the House of his servant David,

⁷⁰ just as he proclaimed, by the mouth of his holy prophets from ancient times,

⁷¹ that he would save us from our enemies and from the hands of all those who hate us,

⁷² and show faithful love to our ancestors, and so keep in mind his holy covenant.

⁷³ This was the oath he swore to our father Abraham,

⁷⁴ that he would grant us, free from fear, to be delivered from the hands of our enemies,

⁷⁵ to serve him in holiness and uprightness in his presence, all our days.
