1. Première lecture 1 Maccabées 1:10-15, 41-43, 54-57, 62-64

   ¹⁰There came out of them a sinful root, Antiochus Epiphanes, son of Antiochus the king, who had been a hostage at Rome, and he reigned in the one hundred thirty seventh year of the kingdom of the Greeks. ¹¹In those days transgressors of the law came out of Israel and persuaded many, saying, “Let’s go make a covenant with the Gentiles around us; for since we were separated from them many evils have befallen us.” ¹²That proposal was good in their eyes. ¹³Some of the people eagerly went to the king, and he authorized them to observe the ordinances of the Gentiles. ¹⁴So they built a gymnasium in Jerusalem according to the laws of the Gentiles. ¹⁵They made themselves uncircumcised, forsook the holy covenant, joined themselves to the Gentiles, and sold themselves to do evil. ⁴¹King Antiochus wrote to his whole kingdom that all should be one people, ⁴²and that each should forsake his own laws. All the nations agreed according to the word of the king. ⁴³Many of Israel consented to his worship, sacrificed to the idols, and profaned the Sabbath. ⁵⁴On the fifteenth day of Chislev, in the one hundred forty fifth year, they built an abomination of desolation upon the altar, and in the cities of Judah on every side they built idol altars. ⁵⁵At the doors of the houses and in the streets they burned incense. ⁵⁶They tore up the books of the law which they found and set them on fire. ⁵⁷Anyone who was found with any book of the covenant, and if any consented to the law, the king’s sentence delivered him to death. ⁶²Many in Israel were fully resolved and confirmed in themselves not to eat unclean things. ⁶³They chose to die, that they might not be defiled with the food, and that they might not profane the holy covenant; and they died. ⁶⁴Exceedingly great wrath came upon Israel.

2. Psaume Psaumes 119:53, 61, 134, 150, 155, 158

   ⁵³Une colère ardente me saisit à la vue des méchants Qui abandonnent ta loi. ⁶¹Les pièges des méchants m’environnent; Je n’oublie point ta loi. ¹³⁴Délivre-moi de l’oppression des hommes, Afin que je garde tes ordonnances! ¹⁵⁰Ils s’approchent, ceux qui poursuivent le crime, Ils s’éloignent de la loi. ¹⁵⁵Le salut est loin des méchants, Car ils ne recherchent pas tes statuts. ¹⁵⁸Je vois avec dégoût des traîtres Qui n’observent pas ta parole.

3. Acclamation de l'Évangile Jean 8:12

4. Évangile Luc 18:35-43

   ³⁵Comme Jésus approchait de Jéricho, un aveugle était assis au bord du chemin, et mendiait. ³⁶Entendant la foule passer, il demanda ce que c’était. ³⁷On lui dit: C’est Jésus de Nazareth qui passe. ³⁸Et il cria: Jésus, Fils de David, aie pitié de moi! ³⁹Ceux qui marchaient devant le reprenaient, pour le faire taire; mais il criait beaucoup plus fort: Fils de David, aie pitié de moi! ⁴⁰Jésus, s’étant arrêté, ordonna qu’on le lui amène; et, quand il se fut approché, ⁴¹il lui demanda: Que veux-tu que je te fasse? Il répondit: Seigneur, que je recouvre la vue. ⁴²Et Jésus lui dit: Recouvre la vue; ta foi t’a sauvé. ⁴³A l’instant il recouvra la vue, et suivit Jésus, en glorifiant Dieu. Tout le peuple, voyant cela, loua Dieu.
