Jesaja 56: 1 ,6-7

56:1 So sê die Here: Preserve judgment, and accomplish justice. For my salvation is close to its arrival, and my justice is close to being revealed.

56:6 And the sons of the new arrival, who adhere to the Lord so as to worship him and to love his name, shall be his servants: all who keep the Sabbath without profaning it, and who hold to my covenant.

56:7 I will lead them to my holy mountain, and I will gladden them in my house of prayer. Their holocausts and their victims will be pleasing to me upon my altar. For my house will be called the house of prayer for all peoples.

Romeine 11: 13-15, 29-34

11:13 Want Ek sê vir julle heidene: Sekerlik, solank ek 'n apostel van die heidene is, Ek sal my bediening eer,

11:14 op so 'n manier dat ek diegene wat my eie vlees is, tot wedywering kan uitlok, en sodat ek sommige van hulle kan red.

11:15 Want as hulle verlies vir die versoening van die wêreld is, waarvoor kan hul terugkeer wees, behalwe lewe uit die dood?

11:29 Want die gawes en die roeping van God is sonder spyt. 11:30 En net soos jy ook, in die verlede, nie in God geglo het nie, maar nou het jy barmhartigheid verkry vanweë hulle ongeloof, 11:31 so het hulle ook nou nie geglo nie, vir u genade, sodat hulle ook barmhartigheid kan verkry.

11:32 Want God het almal in ongeloof ingesluit, sodat hy hom oor almal kan ontferm.

11:33 O, die dieptes van die rykdom van die wysheid en kennis van God! Hoe onbegryplik is sy oordele, en hoe onnaspeurlik is sy weë!

11:34 Want wie het die verstand van die Here geken? Of wie sy raadgewer was?

Evangelie

Die Heilige Evangelie volgens Matteus 15: 21-28

31:1	“In that time, sê die Here, I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they will be my people.”
31:2	So sê die Here: “The people who had remained after the sword, found grace in the desert. Israel will go to his rest.”
31:3	The Lord appeared to me from a distance: “And I have loved you in perpetual charity. Daarom, showing pity, I have drawn you.
31:4	And I will build you up again. And you shall be built up, O virgin of Israel. Still shall you be adorned with your timbrels, and still shall you go forth to the singing of those who play.
31:5	Still shall you plant vineyards on the mountains of Samaria. The planters will plant, and they will not gather the vintage until the time arrives.
31:6	For there will be a day on which the guardians on mount Ephraim will cry out: ‘Arise! And let us ascend on Zion to the Lord our God!’”
31:7	Want so sê die Here: “Exult in the joy of Jacob, and neigh before the head of the Gentiles. Shout, and sing, and say: ‘O Lord, save your people, the remnant of Israel!’
