First Reading: 1 Kings 8:1-7.9-13Mark 8:1-10

A reading from the First Book of Kings.Mark 8:1-10

In those days:
Solomon assembled the elders of Israel
and all the heads of the tribes,
the leaders of the fathers’ houses of the people of Israel,
before King Solomon in Jerusalem,
to bring up the ark of the covenant of the Lord
out of the city of David, which is Zion.
And all the people of Israel assembled to King Solomon
at the feast in the month Ethanim,
which is the seventh month.
And all the elders of Israel came,
and the priests took up the ark.
And they brought up the ark of the Lord,
the tent of meeting,
and all the holy vessels that were in the tent;
the priests and the Levites brought them up.
And King Solomon and all the congregation of Israel,
who had assembled before him,
were with him before the ark,
sacrificing so many sheep and oxen
that they could not be counted or numbered.
Then the priests brought the ark of the covenant of the Lord
to its place, in the inner sanctuary of the house,
in the most holy place,
underneath the wings of the cherubim.
For the cherubim spread out their wings
over the place of the ark
so that the cherubim made a covering
above the ark and its poles.Mark 8:1-10

There was nothing in the ark except the two tables of stone
which Moses put there at Horeb,
where the Lord made a covenant with the people of Israel
when they came out of the land of Egypt.
And when the priests came out of the holy place,
a cloud filled the house of the Lord,
so that the priests could not stand to minister
because of the cloud;
for the glory of the Lord filled the house of the Lord.Mark 8:1-10

Then Solomon said,
“The Lord has set the sun in the heavens,
but has said that he would dwell in thick darkness.
I have built you an exalted house,
a place for you to dwell in forever.”Mark 8:1-10

let us bow down at his footstool.”Mark 8:1-10

you and the ark of your strength.
Your priests shall be clothed with justice;
your faithful shall ring out their joy.

Gospel: Mark 6:53-56Mark 8:1-10

A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark.Mark 8:1-10

At that time:
When Jesus and his disciples had crossed over,
they came to land at Gennesaret,
and moored to the shore.
And when they got out of the boat,
immediately the people recognized him,
and ran about the whole neighbourhood
and began to bring sick people on their pallets
to any place where they heard he was.
And wherever he came, in villages, cities, or country,
they laid the sick in the market places,
and begged him
that they might touch even the fringe of his garment;
and as many as touched it were made well.Mark 8:1-10
