Gospel : Luke 6:39-45

39 He spoke a parable to them. "Can the blind guide the blind? Won't they both fall into a pit?

40 A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone when he is fully trained will be like his teacher.

41 Why do you see the speck of chaff that is in your brother's eye, but don't consider the beam that is in your own eye?

42 Or how can you tell your brother, 'Brother, let me remove the speck of chaff that is in your eye,' when you yourself don't see the beam that is in your own eye? You hypocrite! First remove the beam from your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck of chaff that is in your brother's eye.

43 "For there is no good tree that produces rotten fruit, nor again a rotten tree that produces good fruit.

44 For each tree is known by its own fruit. For people don't gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush.

45 The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings out that which is good, and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings out that which is evil, for out of the abundance of the heart, his mouth speaks.

Sirach 27:4-7

4
When a sieve is shaken, the husks appear;
so do people's faults when they speak.

5
The furnace tests the potter's vessels;
the test of a person is in conversation.

6
The fruit of a tree shows the care it has had;
so speech discloses the bent of a person's heart.

7
Praise no one before he speaks,
for it is then that people are tested.

1 Corinthians 15:54-58

54 But when this perishable body will have become imperishable, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then what is written will happen: "Death is swallowed up in victory."

55 "Death, where is your sting?
Hades, where is your victory?"

56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.

57 But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

58 Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the Lord's work, because you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.
