First Reading
Daniel 12:1-3
1 'At that time Michael
will arise -- the great Prince, defender of your people. That will be a time of
great distress, unparalleled since nations first came into existence. When that
time comes, your own people will be spared -- all those whose names are found
written in the Book.
2 'Of those who are
sleeping in the Land of Dust, many will awaken, some to everlasting life, some
to shame and everlasting disgrace.
3 Those who are wise
will shine as brightly as the expanse of the heavens, and those who have
instructed many in uprightness, as bright as stars for all eternity.

Word of the Lord”
PSALMS 16:5, 8, 9-10,
11
5 My birthright, my cup
is Yahweh; you, you alone, hold my lot secure.
8 I keep Yahweh before
me always, for with him at my right hand, nothing can shake me.
9 So my heart rejoices,
my soul delights, my body too will rest secure,
10 for you will not
abandon me to Sheol, you cannot allow your faithful servant to see the abyss.
11 You will teach me the
path of life, unbounded joy in your presence, at your right hand delight for
ever.
Second Reading
HEBREWS 10:11-14, 18
11 Every priest stands
at his duties every day, offering over and over again the same sacrifices which
are quite incapable of taking away sins.
12 He, on the other
hand, has offered one single sacrifice for sins, and then taken his seat for
ever, at the right hand of God,
13 where he is now
waiting till his enemies are made his footstool.
14 By virtue of that one
single offering, he has achieved the eternal perfection of all who are
sanctified.
18 When these have been
forgiven, there can be no more sin offerings.
Gospel Reading
MARK 13:24-32
24 'But in those days,
after that time of distress, the sun will be darkened, the moon will not give
its light,
25 the stars will come
falling out of the sky and the powers in the heavens will be shaken.
26 And then they will
see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
27 And then he will send
the angels to gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the world
to the ends of the sky.
28 'Take the fig tree as
a parable: as soon as its twigs grow supple and its leaves come out, you know
that summer is near.
29 So with you when you
see these things happening: know that he is near, right at the gates.
30 In truth I tell you,
before this generation has passed away all these things will have taken place.
31 Sky and earth will
pass away, but my words will not pass away.
32 'But as for that day
or hour, nobody knows it, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son; no one but
the Father.
