This is the day the LORD has made let us be glad and rejoice in it

Reading 1 ACTS 2:14, 22-33 On the day of Pentecost, Peter stood up with the Eleven,raised his voice, and proclaimedand You who are Jews, indeed all of you staying in Jerusalem.Let this be known to you, and listen to my words. You who are children of Israel, hear these words.Jesus the Nazorean was a man commended to you by Godwith mighty deeds, wonders, and signs,which God worked through him in your midst, as you yourselves know.This man, delivered up by the set plan and foreknowledge of God,you killed, using lawless men to crucify him.But God raised him up, releasing him from the throes of death,because it was impossible for him to be held by it.For David says of himandI saw the Lord ever before me,with him at my right hand I shall not be disturbed.Therefore my heart has been glad and my tongue has exultedmy flesh, too, will dwell in hope,because you will not abandon my soul to the nether world,nor will you suffer your holy one to see corruption.You have made known to me the paths of lifeyou will fill me with joy in your presence.My brothers, one can confidently say to youabout the patriarch David that he died and was buried,and his tomb is in our midst to this day.But since he was a prophet and knew that God had sworn an oath to himthat he would set one of his descendants upon his throne,he foresaw and spoke of the resurrection of the Christ,that neither was he abandoned to the netherworldnor did his flesh see corruption.God raised this Jesusof this we are all witnesses.Exalted at the right hand of God,he poured forth the promise of the Holy Spiritthat he received from the Father, as you both see and hear.

Gospel MT 28and8-15 Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went away quickly from the tomb,fearful yet overjoyed,and ran to announce the news to his disciples.And behold, Jesus met them on their way and greeted them.They approached, embraced his feet, and did him homage.Then Jesus said to them, Do not be afraid.Go tell my brothers to go to Galilee,and there they will see me. While they were going, some of the guard went into the cityand told the chief priests all that had happened.The chief priests assembled with the elders and took counselthen they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers,telling them, You are to say,‘His disciples came by night and stole him while we were asleep.’And if this gets to the ears of the governor,we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble. The soldiers took the money and did as they were instructed.And this story has circulated among the Jews to the present day.
