June 18th :  Responsorial Psalm

Psalm 88(89):4-5,29-34 ©

I will keep my love for him always.

‘With my chosen one I have made a covenant;

  I have sworn to David my servant:

I will establish your dynasty for ever

  and set up your throne through all ages.

I will keep my love for him always.

‘I will keep my love for him always;

  with him my covenant shall last.

I will establish his dynasty for ever,

  make his throne endure as the heavens.

I will keep my love for him always.

‘If his sons forsake my law

  and refuse to walk as I decree

and if ever they violate my statutes,

  refusing to keep my commands;

then I will punish their offences with the rod,

  then I will scourge them on account of their guilt.

I will keep my love for him always.

‘But I will never take back my love,

  my truth will never fail.’

I will keep my love for him always.

Gospel Acclamation Mt4:4
