First Reading: Second Kings 22: 8-13; 23: 1-3

8 And Helcias the high priest said to Saphan the scribe: I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord: and Helcias gave the book to Saphan, and he read it.

9 And Saphan the scribe came to the king, and brought him word again concerning that which he had commanded, and said: Thy servants have gathered together the money that was found in the house of the Lord, and they have given it to be distributed to the workmen, by the overseers of the works of the temple of the Lord.

10 And Saphan the scribe told the king, saying: Helcias the priest hath delivered to me a book. And when Saphan had read it before the king,

11 And the king had heard the words of the law of the Lord, he rent his garments.

12 And he commanded Helcias the priest, and Ahicam the son of Saphan, and Achobor the son of Micha, and Saphan the scribe, and Asaia the king’s servant, saying:

13 Go and consult the Lord for me, and for the people, and for all Juda, concerning the words of this book which is found: for the great wrath of the Lord is kindled against us, because our fathers have not hearkened to the words of this book, to do all that is written for us.

23:1 And they brought the king word again what she had said. And he sent: and all the ancients of Juda and Jerusalem were assembled to him.

2 And the king went up to the temple of the Lord, and all the men of Juda, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, the priests and the prophets, and all the people both little and great: and in the hearing of them all he read all the words of the book of the covenant, which was found in the house of the Lord.

3 And the king stood upon the step: and made a covenant with the Lord, to walk after the Lord, and to keep his commandments, and his testimonies and his ceremonies, with all their heart, and with all their soul, and to perform the words of this covenant, which were written in that book: and the people agreed to the covenant.

Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 119: 33, 34, 36, 37, 40

R. (33a) Teach me the way of your decrees, O Lord.

33 Set before me for a law the way of thy justifications, O Lord: and I will always seek after it.

R. Teach me the way of your decrees, O Lord.

34 Give me understanding, and I will search thy law; and I will keep it with my whole heart.

R. Teach me the way of your decrees, O Lord.

36 Incline my heart into thy testimonies and not to covetousness.

R. Teach me the way of your decrees, O Lord.

37 Turn away my eyes that they may not behold vanity: quicken me in thy way.

R. Teach me the way of your decrees, O Lord.

40 Behold I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy justice.

R. Teach me the way of your decrees, O Lord.

Alleluia: John 15: 4a, 5b

R. Alleluia, alleluia.

4a, 5b Remain in me, as I remain in you, says the Lord; whoever remains in me will bear much fruit.

R. Alleluia, alleluia.

Gospel: Matthew 7: 15-20

15 Beware of false prophets, who come to you in the clothing of sheep, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

16 By their fruits you shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit, and the evil tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can an evil tree bring forth good fruit.

19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit, shall be cut down, and shall be cast into the fire.

20 Wherefore by their fruits you shall know them.
