Gospel : Mark 9:38-40

38 John said to him, "Teacher, we saw someone who doesn't follow us casting out demons in your name; and we forbade him, because he doesn't follow us."

39 But Jesus said, "Don't forbid him, for there is no one who will do a mighty work in my name, and be able quickly to speak evil of me.

40 For whoever is not against us is on our side.

Sirach 4:11-19

11 Wisdom exalts her sons,
And takes hold of them that seek her.

12 He that loves her loves life;
And they that seek to her early shall be filled with gladness.

13 He that holds her fast shall inherit glory;
And where * he enters, the Lord will bless.

14 They that do her service shall minister to the Holy One;
And them that love her the Lord does love.

15 He that gives ear to her shall judge the nations;
And he that gives heed to her shall dwell securely.

16 If he trust her, he shall inherit her;
And his generations shall have her in possession.

17 For at the first she will walk with him in crooked ways,
And will bring fear and dread upon him,
And torment him with her discipline,
Until she may trust his soul, and try him by her judgements:

18 Then will she return again the straight way to him,
And will gladden him, and reveal to him her secrets.

19 If he go astray, she will forsake him,
And give him over † to his fall.


*4:13: Or, she

†4:19: Gr. to the hands of his fall.
