Gospel : Matthew 11:28-30

28 "Come to me, all you who labour and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest.

29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls.

30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."

Isaiah 26:7-9, 12, 16-19

7 The way of the just is uprightness.
You who are upright make the path of the righteous level.

8 Yes, in the way of your judgements, the LORD, have we waited for you. Your name and your renown are the desire of our soul.

9 With my soul have I desired you in the night. Yes, with my spirit within me will I seek you earnestly; for when your judgements are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.

12 The LORD, you will ordain peace for us, for you have also done all our work for us.

16 LORD, in trouble they have visited you. They poured out a prayer when your chastening was on them.

17 Like as a woman with child, who draws near the time of her delivery, is in pain and cries out in her pangs; so we have been before you, LORD.

18 We have been with child. We have been in pain. We gave birth, it seems, only to wind. We have not worked any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.

19 Your dead shall live. My dead bodies shall arise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in the dust; for your dew is like the dew of herbs, and the earth will cast out the departed spirits.
