FIRST READING 

"I raise the fallen tree" 

A Reading from the book of the prophet Ezekiel (17, 22-24) 

Thus says the Lord God: “From the top of the great cedar I will take a stalk; at the top of its branch I will pick a very young one, and I will plant it myself on a very high mountain. On the high mountain of Israel I will plant it. It will bear twigs, and bear fruit, it will become a magnificent cedar. Below it will live all the sparrows and all kinds of birds, in the shade of its branches they will live. Then all the trees of the field will know that I am the Lord: I overturn the lofty tree and raise the fallen tree, I dry the green tree and make the dry tree green again. I am the Lord, I have spoken, and I will. " 

- Word of the Lord.
