Weekday
First Reading
Exodus 3:13-20
13Then Moses said to God, “If I come to the people of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ what shall I say to them?”
14God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And he said, “Say this to the people of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.’ ”
15God also said to Moses, “Say this to the people of Israel, ‘The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you’: this is my name for ever, and thus I am to be remembered throughout all generations.
16Go and gather the elders of Israel together, and say to them, ‘The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has appeared to me, saying, “I have observed you and what has been done to you in Egypt;
17and I promise that I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt, to the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perʹizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebʹusites, a land flowing with milk and honey.” ’
18And they will hearken to your voice; and you and the elders of Israel shall go to the king of Egypt and say to him, ‘The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has met with us; and now, we pray you, let us go a three days’ journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.’
19I know that the king of Egypt will not let you go unless compelled by a mighty hand.
20So I will stretch out my hand and smite Egypt with all the wonders which I will do in it; after that he will let you go.
Responsorial Psalm
Psalms 105:1, 5, 8-9, 24-27
1O give thanks to the LORD, call on his name, make known his deeds among the peoples!
5Remember the wonderful works that he has done, his miracles, and the judgments he uttered,
8He is mindful of his covenant for ever, of the word that he commanded, for a thousand generations,
9the covenant which he made with Abraham, his sworn promise to Isaac,
24And the LORD made his people very fruitful, and made them stronger than their foes.
25He turned their hearts to hate his people, to deal craftily with his servants.
26He sent Moses his servant, and Aaron whom he had chosen.
27They wrought his signs among them, and miracles in the land of Ham.
Gospel
Matthew 11:28-30
28Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
30For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
