15th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year A)

Psalm text (Ps 65:10, 11, 12-13, 14)

The seed that falls on good ground will yield a fruitful harvest.

You have visited the land and watered it;
greatly have You enriched it.
God's watercourses are filled;
You have prepared the grain.

Thus have You prepared the land:
drenching its furrows, breaking up its clods,
softening it with showers, blessing its yield.

You have crowned the year with Your bounty,
and Your paths overflow with a rich harvest;
the untilled meadows overflow with it,
and rejoicing clothes the hills.

The fields are garmented with flocks
and the valleys blanketed with grain.
They shout and sing for joy.
