Reading 1, Revelation 10:8-11

⁸ Then I heard the voice I had heard from heaven speaking to me again. 'Go', it said, 'and take that open scroll from the hand of the angel standing on sea and land.'

⁹ I went to the angel and asked him to give me the small scroll, and he said, 'Take it and eat it; it will turn your stomach sour, but it will taste as sweet as honey.'

¹⁰ So I took it out of the angel's hand, and I ate it and it tasted sweet as honey, but when I had eaten it my stomach turned sour.

¹¹ Then I was told, 'You are to prophesy again, this time against many different nations and countries and languages and kings.'

Responsorial Psalm, Psalms 119:14, 24, 72, 103, 111, 131

¹⁴ In the way of your instructions lies my joy, a joy beyond all wealth.

²⁴ Your instructions are my delight, your wishes my counsellors.

⁷² The Law you have uttered is more precious to me than all the wealth in the world.

¹⁰³ How pleasant your promise to my palate, sweeter than honey in my mouth!

¹¹¹ Your instructions are my eternal heritage, they are the joy of my heart.

¹³¹ I open wide my mouth, panting eagerly for your commandments.
