As we in the United States celebrate
Thanksgiving Day, the Church offers these readings: Sirach 50:22-24
("I will praise your name for ever, Lord."), 1 Corinthians 1:3-9, and Luke 17:11-19. The Responsorial Psalm
offered is Psalm 145 (Psalm 145:2-11).
For one version of the Responsorial Psalm set to music, please visit:
The Gospel reading is as follows:
As
Jesus continued his journey to Jerusalem, he traveled through Samaria
and Galilee. As he was entering a village, ten persons with leprosy met
him. They stood at a distance from him and raised their voices, saying,
“Jesus, Master! Have pity on us!” And when he saw them, he said, “Go
show yourselves to the priests.”
As
they were going they were cleansed. And one of them, realizing he had
been healed, returned, glorifying God in a loud voice; and he fell at
the feet of Jesus and thanked him. He was a Samaritan. Jesus said in
reply, “Ten were cleansed, were they not? Where are the other nine? Has
none but this foreigner returned to give thanks to God?” Then he said to
him, “Stand up and go; your faith has saved you.”
