Twenty-ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time, Lectionary: 145
READING 1              IS 45:1, 4-6
Thus says the LORD to His anointed, Cyrus, whose right hand I grasp, subduing nations
before him, and making kings run in his service, opening doors before him and leaving the gates
unbarred: For the sake of Jacob, My servant, of Israel, My chosen one, I have called you by your
name, giving you a title, though you knew Me not. I am the LORD and there is no other, there is
no God besides Me. It is I who arm you, though you know Me not, so that toward the rising and
the setting of the sun people may know that there is none besides Me. I am the LORD, there is
no other.

READING 2              1 THES 1:1-5B
Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy to the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord
Jesus Christ: grace to you and peace. We give thanks to God always for all of you,
remembering you in our prayers, unceasingly calling to mind your work of faith and labor of love
and endurance in hope of our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father, knowing, brothers
and sisters loved by God, how you were chosen. For our gospel did not come to you in word
alone, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and with much conviction.
GOSPEL                 MT 22:15-21
The Pharisees went off and plotted how they might entrap Jesus in speech. They sent their
disciples to Him, with the Herodians, saying, "Teacher, we know that you are a truthful man
and that you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. And You are not concerned with
anyone's opinion, for You do not regard a person's status. Tell us, then, what is Your opinion:
Is it lawful to pay the census tax to Caesar or not?" Knowing their malice, Jesus said, "Why are
you testing Me, you hypocrites? Show Me the coin that pays the census tax." Then they handed
Him the Roman coin. He said to them, "Whose image is this and whose inscription?" They
replied, "Caesar's." At that He said to them, "Then repay to Caesar what belongs to Caesar
and to God what belongs to God."
