Friday of the Thirty-first Week in Ordinary Time

Reading 1
Rom 15:14-21

And I myself also, my brethren, am assured of you that you also are full of love, replenished with all knowledge, so that you are able to admonish one another. But I have written to you, brethren, more boldly in some sort, as it were putting you in mind, because of the grace which is given me from God, That I should be the minister of Christ Jesus among the Gentiles: sanctifying the gospel of God, that the oblation of the Gentiles may be made acceptable and sanctified in the Holy Ghost. I have therefore glory in Christ Jesus towards God. For I dare not to speak of any of those things which Christ worketh not by me, for the obedience of the Gentiles, by word and deed, By the virtue of signs and wonders, in the power of the Holy Ghost, so that from Jerusalem round about, as far as unto Illyricum, I have replenished the gospel of Christ. And I have so preached this gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man a foundation. But as it is written:

They to whom he was not spoken of shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand.

Responsorial Psalm
Ps 98:1, 2-3ab, 3cd-4

R. The Lord has revealed to the nations his saving power.
Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle:
because he hath done wonderful things.
His right hand hath wrought for him salvation,
and his arm is holy.
R. The Lord has revealed to the nations his saving power.
The Lord hath made known his salvation:
he hath revealed his justice in the sight of the Gentiles.
He hath remembered his mercy
and his truth toward the house of Israel.
R. The Lord has revealed to the nations his saving power.
All the ends of the earth
have seen the salvation of our God.
Sing joyfully to God, all the earth;
make melody, rejoice and sing.
R. The Lord has revealed to the nations his saving power.

Gospel
Lk 16:1-8

Jesus said to his disciples,
There was a certain rich man who had a steward: and the same was accused unto him, that he had wasted his goods. And he called him and said to him: How is it that I hear this of thee? Give an account of thy stewardship: for now thou canst be steward no longer. And the steward said within himself: What shall I do, because my lord taketh away from me the stewardship? To dig I am not able; to beg I am ashamed. I know what I will do, that when I shall be removed from the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses. Therefore, calling together every one of his lord’s debtors, he said to the first: How much dost thou owe my lord? But he said: An hundred barrels of oil. And he said to him: Take thy bill and sit down quickly and write fifty. Then he said to another: And how much dost thou owe? Who said: An hundred quarters of wheat. He said to him: Take thy bill and write eighty. And the lord commended the unjust steward, forasmuch as he had done wisely: for the children of this world are wiser in their generation than the children of light.
