    Reading 1, Baruch 1:15-22

    You must say: Saving justice is the Lord's, we have only the look of shame we bear, as is the case today for the people of Judah and the
    inhabitants of Jerusalem,
    for our kings and princes, our priests, our prophets, and for our ancestors, because we have sinned before the Lord,
    have disobeyed him, and have not listened to the voice of the Lord our God telling us to follow the commandments which the Lord had
    ordained for us.
    From the day when the Lord brought our ancestors out of Egypt until today we have been disobedient to the Lord our God, we have been
    disloyal, refusing to listen to his voice.
    And we are not free even today of the disasters and the curse which the Lord pronounced through his servant Moses the day he brought
    our ancestors out of Egypt to give us a land flowing with milk and honey.
    We have not listened to the voice of the Lord our God in all the words of those prophets he sent us;
    but, each following the dictates of our evil heart, we have taken to serving alien gods, and doing what is displeasing to the Lord our God.

    Responsorial: Psalm 78:1-5, 8-9


    R./: For the glory of your name, O Lord, deliver us.
    O God, the nations have invaded your land,
    they have profaned your holy temple.
    They have made Jerusalem a heap of ruins.
    They have handed over the bodies of your servants
    as food to feed the birds of heaven
    and the flesh of your faithful
    to the beasts of the earth. (R./)

    R./: For the glory of your name, O Lord, deliver us.

    They have poured out blood like water in Jerusalem,


    leaving no one to bury the dead.
    We have become the taunt of our neighbours,
    the mockery and scorn of those who surround us.
    How long, O Lord? Will you be angry for ever,
    how long will your anger burn like fire? (R./)

    R./: For the glory of your name, O Lord, deliver us.

    Do not hold the guilt of our fathers against us.


    Let your compassion hasten to meet us
    for we are in the depths of distress. (R./)

    R./: For the glory of your name, O Lord, deliver us.

    O God our saviour, come to our help,


    come for the sake of the glory of your name.
    O Lord our God, forgive us our sins;
    rescue us for the sake of your name. (R./)

    R./: For the glory of your name, O Lord, deliver us.
