Saturday of Week 18
Saint Dominic, priest.
First Reading: Deuteronomy 6: 4-13

4 “Hear, O Israel! The LORD is our God, the LORD alone!

5 Therefore, you shall love the LORD, your God, with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength.

6 Take to heart these words which I enjoin on you today.

7 Drill them into your children. Speak of them at home and abroad, whether you are busy or at rest.

8 Bind them at your wrist as a sign and let them be as a pendant on your forehead.

9 Write them on the doorposts of your houses and on your gates.

10 “When the LORD, your God, brings you into the land which he swore to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, that he would give you, a land with fine, large cities that you did not build,

11 with houses full of goods of all sorts that you did not garner, with cisterns that you did not dig, with vineyards and olive groves that you did not plant; and when, therefore, you eat your fill,

12 take care not to forget the LORD, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery.

13 The LORD, your God, shall you fear; him shall you serve, and by his name shall you swear.

Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 18: 2-4, 47, 51

2 He said: I love you, LORD, my strength,

3 LORD, my rock, my fortress, my deliverer, My God, my rock of refuge, my shield, my saving horn, my stronghold!

4 Praised be the LORD, I exclaim! I have been delivered from my enemies.

47 The LORD lives! Blessed be my rock! Exalted be God, my savior!

51 You have given great victories to your king, and shown kindness to your anointed, to David and his posterity forever.

Gospel: Matthew 17: 14-20

14 When they came to the crowd a man approached, knelt down before him,

15 and said, “Lord, have pity on my son, for he is a lunatic and suffers severely; often he falls into fire, and often into water.

16 I brought him to your disciples, but they could not cure him.”

17 Jesus said in reply, “O faithless and perverse generation, how long will I be with you? How long will I endure you? Bring him here to me.”

18 Jesus rebuked him and the demon came out of him, and from that hour the boy was cured.

19 Then the disciples approached Jesus in private and said, “Why could we not drive it out?”

20 He said to them, “Because of your little faith. Amen, I say to you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”
