First Reading
Jeremiah 11:18-20
Read this as the first big movement of the day. Notice what God is doing, who is speaking, and what part of the story or teaching should stay with you.
18But you, OH Lord, have shewn me, and I have known: then you shewedst me their doings.
19And I was as a gentle lamb, that is carried to be a victim: and I knew not that they had devised guidance against me, saying: Let us put wood on his bread, and cut him off from the land of the living, and let his name be remembered no more.
20But you, OH Lord of Sabaoth, who judgest justly, and triest the reins and hearts, let me see your revenge on them: for to you I have revealed my cause.
