A reading from
the Book of Numbers6:22-27
The Lord said to Moses: “Speak to Aaron and his sons and tell them: This is how you shall bless the Israelites. Say to them:/ The Lord bless you and keep you!/ The Lord let his face shine upon you, and be gracious to you!/ The Lord look upon you kindly and give you peace!/ So shall they invoke my name upon the Israelites, and I will bless them.”
The word of the Lord.
