First Reading:Â Romans 3:Â 21-30
21Â But now without the law the justice of God is made manifest, being witnessed by the law and the prophets.
22Â Even the justice of God, by faith of Jesus Christ, unto all and upon all them that believe in him: for there is no distinction:
23 For all have sinned, and do need the glory of God.
24Â Being justified freely by his grace, through the redemption, that is in Christ Jesus,
25Â Whom God hath proposed to be a propitiation, through faith in his blood, to the shewing of his justice, for the remission of former sins,
26Â Through the forbearance of God, for the shewing of his justice in this time; that he himself may be just, and the justifier of him, who is of the faith of Jesus Christ.
27Â Where is then thy boasting? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith.
28Â For we account a man to be justified by faith, without the works of the law.
29Â Is he the God of the Jews only? Is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also.
30Â For it is one God, that justifieth circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.
Responsorial Psalm:Â Psalms 130:Â 1b-2, 3-4, 5-6ab

2Â Lord, hear my voice. Let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
R. With the Lord there is mercy, and fullness of redemption.
3Â If thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it.
4Â For with thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of thy law, I have waited for thee, O Lord.
R. With the Lord there is mercy, and fullness of redemption.
5Â My soul hath relied on his word. My soul hath hoped in the Lord.
6Â From the morning watch even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord.
R. With the Lord there is mercy, and fullness of redemption.
Alleluia:Â John 14:Â 6
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
6Â I am the way and the truth and the life, says the Lord; no one comes to the Father except through me.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Gospel:Â Luke 11:Â 47-54
47Â Woe to you who build the monuments of the prophets: and your fathers killed them.
48Â Truly you bear witness that you consent to the doings of your fathers: for they indeed killed them, and you build their sepulchres.
49Â For this cause also the wisdom of God said: I will send to them prophets and apostles; and some of them they will kill and persecute.
50Â That the blood of all the prophets which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation,
51Â From the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias, who was slain between the alter and the temple: Yea I say to you, It shall be required of this generation.
52Â Woe to you lawyers, for you have taken away the key of knowledge: you yourselves have not entered in, and those that were entering in, you have hindered.
53Â And as he was saying these things to them, the Pharisees and the lawyers began violently to urge him, and to oppress his mouth about many things,
54Â Lying in wait for him, and seeking to catch something from his mouth, that they might accuse him.
