A reading from the Job(42:1-3,5-6,12-17).
Then Job answered the lord:" I know that you can do all things,and that no purpose of yours can be thwarted.who is this that hides counsel without knowledge? Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand, things too wonderful for me,which I did not know.I had heard of you by hearing of the ear,but now my eye sees you;therefore i despise myself,and repent in dust and ashes." And the Lord blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning;and hr had fourteen thousand sheep,six thousand camels,a thousand yoke of oxen,and a thousand she donkeys. He had also seven sons and three daighters. And he called the name of the first Jemimaj;and the name of the second Keziah;and the name of the third Keren-happuch. And in all the land there were no women so fair as Jobs daughters;and their father gave them inheritance among their brothers. And after this Job lived a hundred and fourty years,and saw his sons,amd his sons'sons,four generations. And Job died,an old man,and full of days.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

GOSPEL
A reading from the holy gospel according to Luke (10:17-24)
At that time:the seventy returned with joy saying " Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!"and he said of them "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. Behold I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy;and nothing shall hurt you. Nevertheless do not rejoice in this,that the spirit are subject to you;but rejoice that your names are written in heaven". In that same hour he rejoiced in the holy spirit and said,I thank you,father,Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to infants;yes,father,for such was your gracious will. All things have been delivered to me by my father;and no one knows who the son is except the father,or who the father is except the son and any one to whom the son chooses to reveal him.Then turning to the disciples he said privately "Blessed are the eyes which see what you see! For I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see what you see, and did not see it,and to hear what you hear,and did not hear it."
