First Reading
Job 7:1-4, 6-7
1"Has not man a hard service upon earth, and are not his days like the days of a hireling?
2Like a slave who longs for the shadow, and like a hireling who looks for his wages,
3so I am allotted months of emptiness, and nights of misery are apportioned to me.
4When I lie down I say, `When shall I arise?' But the night is long, and I am full of tossing till the dawn.
6My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and come to their end without hope.
7"Remember that my life is a breath; my eye will never again see good.
Responsorial Psalm
Psalms 147:1-6
1Praise the LORD! For it is good to sing praises to our God; for he is gracious, and a song of praise is seemly.
2The LORD builds up Jerusalem; he gathers the outcasts of Israel.
3He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their wounds.
4He determines the number of the stars, he gives to all of them their names.
5Great is our LORD, and abundant in power; his understanding is beyond measure.
6The LORD lifts up the downtrodden, he casts the wicked to the ground.
Second Reading
1 Corinthians 9:16-19, 22-23
16For if I preach the gospel, that gives me no ground for boasting. For necessity is laid upon me. Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!
17For if I do this of my own will, I have a reward; but if not of my own will, I am entrusted with a commission.
18What then is my reward? Just this: that in my preaching I may make the gospel free of charge, not making full use of my right in the gospel.
19For though I am free from all men, I have made myself a slave to all, that I might win the more.
22To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.
23I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings.
Gospel
Mark 1:29-39
29And immediately he left the synagogue, and entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30Now Simon's mother-in-law lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him of her.
31And he came and took her by the hand and lifted her up, and the fever left her; and she served them.
32That evening, at sundown, they brought to him all who were sick or possessed with demons.
33And the whole city was gathered together about the door.
34And he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and he would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him.
35And in the morning, a great while before day, he rose and went out to a lonely place, and there he prayed.
36And Simon and those who were with him pursued him,
37and they found him and said to him, "Every one is searching for you."
38And he said to them, "Let us go on to the next towns, that I may preach there also; for that is why I came out."
39And he went throughout all Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and casting out demons.
