Catholic Daily Reading 22nd June 2012
"Now Athalia, the mother of Ochozias, seeing that her son was dead, arose and slew all the royal seed.
But Josaba the daughter of king Joram, sister of Ochozias, took Joas, the son of Ochozias, and stole him from among
the king's sons that were slain, out of the bedchamber with his nurse: and hid him from the face of Athalia; so that he was
not slain.
and he was with her six years, hid in the house of the Lord. And Athalia reigned over the land.
And in the seventh year Joiada sent, and taking the centurions and soldiers, brought them in to him into the temple
of the Lord, and made a covenant with them: and taking an oath of them in the house of the Lord, shewed them the king's son
And the centurions did according to all things that Joiada the priest, had commanded them: and takiug every one
their men, that went in on the sabbath, with them that went out in the sabbath, came to Joiada, the priest.
And he gave them the spears, and the arms of king David, which were in the house of the Lord.
And they stood, having every one their weapons in their hands, from the right side of the temple, unto the left
side of the altar, and of the temple, about the king.
And he brought forth the king's son, and put the diadem upon him, and the testimony: and they made him king, and
anointed him: and clapping their hands, they said: God save the king.
And Athalia heard the noise of the people running: and going in to the people into the temple of the Lord,
She saw the king standing upon a tribunal, as the manner was, and the singers, and the trumpets near him, and all
the people of the land rejoicing, and sounding the trumpets: and she rent her garments, and cried: A conspiracy, a
conspiracy.
But Joiada commanded the centurions that were over the army, and said to them: Have her forth without the precinct
of the temple, and whosoever shall follow her, let him be slain with the sword. For the priest had said: Let her not be slain
in the temple of the Lord.
And they laid hands on her: and thrust her out by the way by which the horses go in, by the palace, and she was
slain there.
And Joiada made a covenant between the Lord, and the king, and the people, that they should be the people of the
Lord; and between the king and the people.
And all the people of the land went into the temple of Baal, and broke down his altars, and his images they broke
in pieces thoroughly: they slew also Mathan the priest of Baal before the altar. And the priest set guards in the house of
the Lord.
And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet: but Athalia was slain with the sword in the
king's house."
2 Kings 11.1-4,9-18,20
"The Lord hath sworn truth to David, and he will not make it void: of the fruit of thy womb I will set upon thy
throne.
If thy children will keep my covenant, and these my testimonies which I shall teach them: Their children also for
evermore shall sit upon thy throne.
For the Lord hath chosen Sion: he hath chosen it for his dwelling.
This is my rest for ever and ever: here will I dwell, for I have chosen it.
There will I bring forth a horn to David: I have prepared a lamp for my anointed.
His enemies I will clothe with confusion: but upon him shall my sanctification flourish.
11 Yahweh has sworn to David, and will always remain true to his word, 'I promise that I will set a son of yours upon your
throne."
Psalm 132.11-14,17-18
"Lay not up to yourselves treasures on earth: where the rust, and moth consume, and where thieves break through, and
steal.
But lay up to yourselves treasures in heaven: where neither the rust nor moth doth consume, and where thieves do
not break through, nor steal.
For where thy treasure is, there is thy heart also.
The light of thy body is thy eye. If thy eye be single, thy whole body shall be lightsome.
But if thy eye be evil thy whole body shall be darksome. If then the light that is in thee, be darkness: the
darkness itself how great shall it be!"
Matthew 6.;19-23
