Gospel : Mark 10:13-16

13 They were bringing to him little children, that he should touch them, but the disciples rebuked those who were bringing them.

14 But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation, and said to them, "Allow the little children to come to me! Don't forbid them, for God's Kingdom belongs to such as these.

15 Most certainly I tell you, whoever will not receive God's Kingdom like a little child, he will in no way enter into it."

16 He took them in his arms, and blessed them, laying his hands on them.

Sirach 17:1-15

1 The Lord created man of the earth,
And turned him back to it again.

2 He gave them days by number, and a set time,
And gave them authority over the things that are thereon.

3 He endued them with strength proper to them;
And made them according to his own image.

4 He put the fear of * man upon all flesh,
And gave him to have dominion over beasts and fowls.

5 †

6 Counsel, and tongue, and eyes,
Ears, and heart, gave he them to understand withal.

7 He filled them with the knowledge of wisdom,
And showed them good and evil.

8 He set his eye upon their hearts,
To show them the majesty of his works.

9 ‡

10 And they shall praise the name of his holiness,
§ That they may declare the majesty of his works.

11 He added to them knowledge,
And gave them a law of life for a heritage.

12 He made an everlasting covenant with them,
And showed them his judgements.

13 Their eyes saw the majesty of his glory;
And their ear heard the glory of ** his voice.

14 And he said to them, Beware of all unrighteousness;
And he gave them commandment, each man concerning his neighbour.

15 Their ways are ever before him;
They shall not be hid from his eyes.
