Saint John, Apostle and Evangelist: Responsorial Psalm
Psalm 97:1-2, 5-6, 11-12
Rejoice in the Lord, you just!
Verse 1:
The LORD is king; let the earth rejoice;
let the many isles be glad.
Clouds and darkness are around him,
justice and judgment are the foundation of his throne.
Verse 2:
The mountains melt like wax before the LORD,
before the LORD of all the earth.
The heavens proclaim his justice,
and all peoples see his glory.
Verse 3:
Light dawns for the just;
and gladness, for the upright of heart.
Be glad in the LORD, you just,
and give thanks to his holy name.
