Gospel : Luke 10:17-24
17 The seventy returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!"
18 He said to them, "I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.
19 Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way hurt you.
20 Nevertheless, don't rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven."
21 In that same hour, Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, "I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight."
22 Turning to the disciples, he said, "All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son desires to reveal him."
23 Turning to the disciples, he said privately, "Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see,
24 for I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which you see, and didn't see them, and to hear the things which you hear, and didn't hear them."

Baruch 4:5-12, 27-29
5 Be of good cheer, my people, the memorial of Israel.
6 You were not sold to the nations for destruction, but because you moved God to wrath, you were delivered to your adversaries.
7 For you provoked him who made you by sacrificing to demons and not to God.
8 You forgot the everlasting God who brought you up. You also grieved Jerusalem, who nursed you.
9 For she saw the wrath that came upon you from God, and said, "Listen, you who dwell near Zion; for God has brought upon me great mourning.
10 For I have seen the captivity of my sons and daughters, which the Everlasting has brought upon them.
11 For with joy I nourished them, but sent them away with weeping and mourning.
12 Let no man rejoice over me, a widow and forsaken by many. For the sins of my children, I am left desolate, because they turned away from the law of God
27 Take courage, my children, and cry to God; for you will be remembered by him who has brought this upon you.
28 For as it was your decision to go astray from God, return and seek him ten times more.
29 For he who brought these calamities upon you will bring you everlasting joy again with your salvation.
