THIRD SUNDAY OF ADVENT — Year C

*Alternate* First Reading: Isaiah 56:1, 6-7

A reading from the book of the prophet Isaiah.

Thus says Our God,
“Do what is right,
work for justice.
For my salvation is about to come
and my justice is about to be revealed.”
For thus says Our God,
“The foreigners who join themselves to me, ministering to me,
loving the name of God, and becoming my servants –
all who observe the Sabbath and do not profane it,
and cling to my covenant –
these I will bring to my holy mountain.
I will make them joyful in my house of prayer.”

The Word of God recorded in the book of the prophet Isaiah.
