Daily Mass Readings for June 16, 2025: Gospel — Mt 5,38-42

¹ Now because we are fellow workers, we also urge you not to receive the grace of God in vain. ² For he says, “I heard you at the acceptable time, and in the day of salvation I helped you.” Look, now is the acceptable time; look, now is the day of salvation! ³ We do not give anyone an occasion for taking an offense in anything, so that no fault may be found with our ministry. ⁴ But as God’s servants, we have commended ourselves in every way, with great endurance, in persecutions, in difficulties, in distresses, ⁵ in beatings, in imprisonments, in riots, in troubles, in sleepless nights, in hunger, ⁶ by purity, by knowledge, by patience, by benevolence, by the Holy Spirit, by genuine love, ⁷ by truthful teaching, by the power of God, with weapons of righteousness both for the right hand and for the left, ⁸ through glory and dishonor, through slander and praise; regarded as impostors, and yet true; ⁹ as unknown, and yet well-known; as dying and yet—see!—we continue to live; as those who are scourged and yet not executed; 1 ⁰ as sorrowful, but always rejoicing; as poor, but making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing everything.
