First Reading: Revelation
11:19a; 12:1-6a, 10ab
“A woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet.”
God’s temple
in heaven was opened. And a great sign appeared in heaven, a Woman clothed with
the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars;
she was with child and she cried out in her pangs of birth, in anguish for delivery. And another sign appeared in
heaven; behold, a great red dragon, with seven heads and ten horns, with seven
diadems upon his heads. His tail swept down a third of the stars of heaven, and
cast them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to
bear a child, that he might devour her child when she brought it forth; she
brought forth a male child, one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of
iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne, and the woman fled
into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God. And I heard a loud
voice in heaven, saying, “Now the salvation and the power and kingdom of our
God and the authority of his Christ have come”.
The word of
the Lord
People: Thanks be to God.
