读经一
恭读箴言 21:1-6, 10-13
君王的心在上主手里,有如水流,可随意转移。人对自己的行为,都自觉正直;但审察人心的,却是上主。秉公行义,比献祭更中悦上主。傲慢的眼睛,骄矜的心灵,恶人的炫耀,无非是罪恶。熟思的人,必足以致富;草率的人,必贫困缠身。以谎言伪语骗得的财宝,是浮云轻烟,死亡的罗网。
恶人的心灵只求邪恶;对自己友伴毫不关怀。轻狂者遭受处罚,幼稚者将得明智;智者接受教训,更增加自己的知识。正义的上主监视恶人的家,且使恶人们都陷于灾祸中。谁对穷人的哀求充耳不闻,他呼求时,也不会得到应允。
Reading 1
A reading from the book of Proverbs 21:1-6, 10-13
Like a stream is the king’s heart in the hand of the LORD;
wherever it pleases him, he directs it.
All the ways of a man may be right in his own eyes,
but it is the LORD who proves hearts.
To do what is right and just
is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.
Haughty eyes and a proud heart–
the tillage of the wicked is sin.
The plans of the diligent are sure of profit,
but all rash haste leads certainly to poverty.
Whoever makes a fortune by a lying tongue
is chasing a bubble over deadly snares.
The soul of the wicked man desires evil;
his neighbor finds no pity in his eyes.
When the arrogant man is punished, the simple are the wiser;
when the wise man is instructed, he gains knowledge.
The just man appraises the house of the wicked:
there is one who brings down the wicked to ruin.
He who shuts his ear to the cry of the poor
will himself also call and not be heard.
福音
恭读圣路加福音 8:19-21
耶稣的母亲和兄弟到他这里来了,因为人多,不能与他相会。有人告诉耶稣说:“你的母亲和你的兄弟站在外边,愿意见你。”他却回答他们说:“听了天主的话而实行的,才是我的母亲和我的兄弟。”
Gospel
A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 8:19-21
The mother of Jesus and his brothers came to him
but were unable to join him because of the crowd.
He was told, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside
and they wish to see you.”
He said to them in reply, “My mother and my brothers
are those who hear the word of God and act on it.”
