First Reading
Deuteronomy 34:1-12
1And Moses went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, which is opposite Jericho. And the LORD showed him all the land, Gilead as far as Dan, 2all Naph'tali, the land of E'phraim and Manas'seh, all the land of Judah as far as the Western Sea, 3the Negeb, and the Plain, that is, the valley of Jericho the city of palm trees, as far as Zo'ar. 4And the LORD said to him, "This is the land of which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, `I will give it to your descendants.' I have let you see it with your eyes, but you shall not go over there." 5So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the LORD, 6and he buried him in the valley in the land of Moab opposite Beth-pe'or; but no man knows the place of his burial to this day. 7Moses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died; his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated. 8And the people of Israel wept for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days; then the days of weeping and mourning for Moses were ended. 9And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands upon him; so the people of Israel obeyed him, and did as the LORD had commanded Moses. 10And there has not arisen a prophet since in Israel like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face, 11none like him for all the signs and the wonders which the LORD sent him to do in the land of Egypt, to Pharaoh and to all his servants and to all his land, 12and for all the mighty power and all the great and terrible deeds which Moses wrought in the sight of all Israel. -
Responsorial Psalm
Psalms 66:1-3, 5, 8, 16-17
0To the choirmaster. A Song. A Psalm. 1Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth; 2sing the glory of his name; give to him glorious praise! 4All the earth worships thee; they sing praises to thee, sing praises to thy name." [Selah] 7who rules by his might for ever, whose eyes keep watch on the nations -- let not the rebellious exalt themselves. [Selah] 15I will offer to thee burnt offerings of fatlings, with the smoke of the sacrifice of rams; I will make an offering of bulls and goats. [Selah] 16Come and hear, all you who fear God, and I will tell what he has done for me. -
Gospel
Matthew 18:15-20
15"If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. 16But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every word may be confirmed by the evidence of two or three witnesses. 17If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church; and if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector. 18Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. 19Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. 20For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of them."
