Yet you say,  ‘How have we spoken against you?’  You have said, ‘It is vain to serve God.  What is the good of our keeping his charge  or of walking as in mourning before the Lord of hosts?  Henceforth we deem the arrogant blessed;  evildoers not only prosper  but when they put God to the test they escape.’” Then those who feared the Lord  spoke with one another;  the Lord heeded and heard them,  and a book of remembrance was written before him  of those who feared the Lord and thought on his name.  “They shall be mine, says the Lord of hosts,  my special possession on the day when I act,  and I will spare them as a man spares his son who serves him.  Then once more you shall distinguish  between the righteous and the wicked,  between one who serves God  and one who does not serve him.For behold, the day comes,  burning like an oven,  when all the arrogant and all evildoers will be stubble;  the day that comes shall burn them up,  says the Lord of hosts,  so that it will leave them neither root nor branch.  But for you who fear my name  the sun of righteousness shall rise,  with healing in its wings.  Responsorial psalm: Psalm 1:1-2. 3. 4 and 6 (Psalm 40:5ab)R./  Blessed the man who has placed his trust in the Lord.Blessed indeed is the man who follows not the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the path with sinners, nor abides in the company of scorners, but whose delight is the law of the Lord, and who ponders his law day and night.He is like a tree that is planted  beside the flowing waters, that yields its fruit in due season, and whose leaves shall never fade; and all that he does shall prosper.Not so the wicked, not so! For they, like winnowed chaff, shall be driven away by the wind. For the Lord knows the way of the just, but the way of the wicked will perish.  R/. Gospel: Luke 11:5-13At that time:  Jesus said to his disciples,  “Which of you who has a friend will go to him at midnight  and say to him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves;  for a friend of mine has arrived on a journey,  and I have nothing to set before him’;  and he will answer from within, ‘ Do not bother me;  the door is now shut,  and my children are with me in bed;  I cannot get up and give you anything’?  I tell you,  though he will not get up and give him anything  because he is his friend,  yet because of his importunity he will rise  and give him whatever he needs.  And I tell you,  Ask, and it will be given you;  seek, and you will find;  knock, and it will be opened to you.  For everyone who asks receives,  and the one who seeks finds,  and to the one who knocks, it will be opened.  What parent among you,  if his child asks for a fish,  will instead of a fish give him a serpent;  or if they
