Cry to God with shouts of joy!First Reading: Amos 3: 1-8; 4: 11-12A reading from the Book of of the Prophet AmosHear this word that the Lord has spoken against you, O people of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up out of the land of Egypt:“You only have I known    of all the families of the earth;therefore I will punish you    for all your iniquities.“Do two walk together,    unless they have made an appointment?Does a lion roar in the forest,    when he has no prey?Does a young lion cry out from his den,    if he has taken nothing?Does a bird fall in a snare on the earth,    when there is no trap for it?Does a snare spring up from the ground,    when it has taken nothing?Is a trumpet blown in a city,    and the people are not afraid?Does evil befall a city,    unless the Lord has done it?Surely the Lord God does nothing,    without revealing his secret    to his servants the prophets.The lion has roared;    who will not fear?The Lord God has spoken;    who can but prophesy?”“I overthrew some of you,    as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah,    and you were as a brand plucked out of the burning;yet you did not return to me,”                says the Lord.“Therefore thus I will do to you, O Israel;    because I will do this to you,    prepare to meet your God, O Israel!”The Word of the LordResponsorial psalm: Psalm 5: 5-6, 7, 8 (R. 9a)R./ Lead me, Lord, in your justice.You are no God who delights in evil;no sinner is your guest.The boastful shall not stand their groundbefore your eyes.All who do evil you despise;all who lie you destroy.The deceitful and those who shed blood,the Lord detests.Yet through the greatness of your merciful love, I enter your house.I bow down before your holy temple,in awe of you. R./ Lead me, Lord, in your justice.Alleluia, alleluia.I wait for the Lord, in his word I hope.Alleluia.Gospel: Matthew 8:23-27A reading from the Holy Gospel according to MatthewAt that time: When Jesus got into the boat, his disciples followed him. And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being swamped by the waves; but he was asleep. And they went and woke him, saying, “Save, Lord; we are perishing.” And he said to them, “Why are you afraid, O men of little faith?” Then he rose and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm. And the men marveled, saying, “What sort of man is this, that even winds and sea obey him?”The Gospel of the LordCommunion AntiphonBless the Lord, O my soul, and all within me, his holy name.
