First Reading - 1 Cor 4: 6b-15
6 brother contends against brother in court, and this before the unfaithful!
7 Now there is certainly an offense among you, beyond everything
else, when you have court cases against one another. Should you not
accept injury instead? Should you not endure being cheated instead?
8 But you are doing the injuring and the cheating, and this toward brothers!
9 Do you not know that the iniquitous will not possess the kingdom
of God? Do not choose to wander astray. For neither fornicators, nor
servants of idolatry, nor adulterers,
10 nor the effeminate, nor males who sleep with males, nor thieves,
nor the avaricious, nor the inebriated, nor slanderers, nor the
rapacious shall possess the kingdom of God.
11 And some of you were like this. But you have been absolved, but
you have been sanctified, but you have been justified: all in the name
of our Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.
12 All is lawful to me, but not all is expedient. All is lawful to
me, but I will not be driven back by the authority of anyone.
13 Food is for the stomach, and the stomach is for food. But God
shall destroy both the stomach and food. And the body is not for
fornication, but rather for the Lord; and the Lord is for the body.
14 Truly, God has raised up the Lord, and he will raise us up by his power.
15 Do you not know that your bodies are a part of Christ? So then,
should I take a part of Christ and make it a part of a harlot? Let it
not be so!

Psalm - Ps 145: 17-21
17 The Lord is just in all his ways and holy in all his works.
18 The Lord is near to all who call upon him, to all who call upon him in truth.
19 He will do the will of those who fear him, and he will heed their supplication and accomplish their salvation.
20 The Lord watches over all who love him. And he will destroy all sinners.
21 My mouth will speak the praise of the Lord, and may all flesh bless his holy name, in this time and forever and ever.

Gospel - Lk 6: 1-5
1 Now it happened that, on the second first Sabbath,
as he passed through the grain field, his disciples were separating the
ears of grain and eating them, by rubbing them in their hands.
2 Then certain Pharisees said to them, “Why are you doing what is not lawful on the Sabbaths?”
3 And responding to them, Jesus said: “Have you not read this, what
David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him?
4 How he entered into the house of God, and took the bread of the
Presence, and ate it, and gave it to those who were with him, though it
is not lawful for anyone to eat it, except the priests alone?”
5 And he said to them, “For the Son of man is Lord, even of the Sabbath.”
