Feast of Christ the King
Responsorial Psalm – Psalms 122:1-2, 3-4, 4-5
R. (cf. 1) Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.
1I rejoiced because they said to me, “We will go up to the house of the LORD.” 2And now we have set foot within your gates, O Jerusalem. R. Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.
3Jerusalem, built as a city with compact unity. 4ABTo it the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD. R. Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.
4CDAccording to the decree for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD. 5In it are set up judgment seats, seats for the house of David. R. Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.
Gospel – Luke 23:35-43
35The rulers sneered at Jesus and said, “He saved others, let him save himself if he is the chosen one, the Christ of God.”
36Even the soldiers jeered at him. As they approached to offer him wine
37they called out, “If you are King of the Jews, save yourself.”
38Above him there was an inscription that read, “This is the King of the Jews.”
39Now one of the criminals hanging there reviled Jesus, saying, “Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us.”
40The other, however, rebuking him, said in reply, “Have you no fear of God, for you are subject to the same condemnation?
41And indeed, we have been condemned justly, for the sentence we received corresponds to our crimes, but this man has done nothing criminal.”
42Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.”
43He replied to him, “Amen, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise.”
