The Lord had given him peace by delivering him from all the enemies around him. Then the king said to Nathan the prophet, “Look! I live in a house of cedar, and the ark of God lives in a tent of cloth!” Nathan answered the king, “Do whatever you intend to do, for the Lord is with you.” But that night the word of the Lord came to Nathan: “Go and tell my servant David, ‘Thus says the Lord: Will you build me a house to live in? I took you from the pasture, from following the flock, to be ruler over my people Israel. I have been with you wherever you have gone; I have struck down all your enemies before you. I have made you a name as great as the great ones of the earth.’” I will establish my people Israel in this place, and I will plant them there, and they will dwell there and will not be afraid, and the wicked will no longer come to afflict them, as they did in the past, since the day I appointed judges to rule my people Israel. Yes, I have granted you rest by delivering you from all your enemies. The Lord announces to you that he himself will make you a house. When your days are fulfilled and you rest with your fathers, I will raise up for you a successor from your descendants, who will be born of you, and I will establish his kingdom. I will be a father to him, and he will be a son to me. Your house and your kingdom will endure forever before me, your throne will be established forever.” – Word of the Lord. Psalm (88 (89), 2-3, 4-5, 27.29) R/ Your love, Lord, I sing of it without end! (cf. 88, 2a) I sing of the Lord's love without end; I proclaim your faithfulness from generation to generation. I say: It is a love built for ever; your faithfulness is more stable than the heavens. "With my chosen one, I have made a covenant, I have sworn to David, my servant: I will establish your dynasty forever, I will build you a throne for all generations. "He will say to me: You are my Father, my God, my rock and my salvation! I will keep my love for him without end, my covenant with him will be faithful." Gospel The rising sun will visit us (Lk 1, 67-79) Alleluia, Alleluia. Come, rising sun, splendor of justice and eternal light! Illuminate those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death. Alleluia. Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke At that time, when John the Baptist was born, his father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke these prophetic words: “Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, who visits and redeems his people. He has raised up the power of salvation for us in the house of David his servant, as he spoke by the mouth of his saints, through his prophets from of old: salvation that delivers us from the enemy, from the hand of all who oppress us, and love that he shows to our fathers, and the memory of his holy covenant; an oath sworn to our father Abraham to give us back without fear, so that, having been delivered from the hand of our enemies, we may serve him in righteousness and holiness before him all our days. You too, child, will be called a prophet of the Most High; you will go before, in the face of the Lord, and you will prepare his ways, to give his people to know salvation by the remission of their sins, thanks to the tenderness, to the love of our God, when the star from on high visits us, to enlighten those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death, to guide our feet in the way of peace. » – Let us acclaim the Word of God.
