Memorial of Saint Scholastica, Virgin
读经一
恭读创世纪 3:1-8
在上主天主所造的一切野兽中，蛇是最狡猾的。蛇对女人说：“天主真说了，你们不可吃乐园中任何树上的果子吗？”女人对蛇说：“乐园中树上的果子，我们都可吃；只有乐园中央那棵树上的果子，天主说过，你们不可以吃，也不可摸，免得死亡。”蛇对女人说：“你们决不会死！因为天主知道，你们那天吃了这果子，你们的眼就会开了，将如同天主一样知道善恶。”女人看那棵果树实在好吃好看，令人羡慕，且能增加智慧，便摘下一个果子吃了，又给了她的男人一个，他也吃了。于是二人的眼立即开了，发觉自己赤身露体，遂用无花果树叶，编了个裙子围身。当亚当和他的妻子听见了上主天主趁晚凉在乐园中散步的声音，就躲藏在乐园的树林中，怕见上主天主的面。
Reading 1
A reading from the Book of Genesis 3:1-8
Now the serpent was the most cunning of all the animals
that the LORD God had made.
The serpent asked the woman,
“Did God really tell you not to eat
from any of the trees in the garden?”
The woman answered the serpent:
“We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden;
it is only about the fruit of the tree
in the middle of the garden that God said,
‘You shall not eat it or even touch it, lest you die.'”
But the serpent said to the woman:
“You certainly will not die!
No, God knows well that the moment you eat of it
your eyes will be opened and you will be like gods
who know what is good and what is evil.”
The woman saw that the tree was good for food,
pleasing to the eyes, and desirable for gaining wisdom.
So she took some of its fruit and ate it;
and she also gave some to her husband, who was with her,
and he ate it.
Then the eyes of both of them were opened,
and they realized that they were naked;
so they sewed fig leaves together
and made loincloths for themselves.
When they heard the sound of the LORD God moving about in the garden
at the breezy time of the day,
the man and his wife hid themselves from the LORD God
among the trees of the garden.
福音
恭读圣马尔谷福音 7:31-37
耶稣从提洛境内出来，经过漆冬，向着加里肋亚海，到了十城区中心地带。有人给他带来一个又聋又哑的人，求他给他覆手。耶稣便领他离开群众，走到一边，把手指放进他的耳朵里，并用唾沫，抹他的舌头，然后望天叹息，向他说：“厄法达！”就是说：“开了吧！”他的耳朵就立时开了，舌结也解了，说话也清楚了。耶稣遂嘱咐他们不要告诉任何人；但他越嘱咐他们，他们便越发宣传；人都不胜惊奇说：“他所做的一切都好：使聋子听见，叫哑巴说话。”
Gospel
A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark 7:31-37
Jesus left the district of Tyre
and went by way of Sidon to the Sea of Galilee,
into the district of the Decapolis.
And people brought to him a deaf man who had a speech impediment
and begged him to lay his hand on him.
He took him off by himself away from the crowd.
He put his finger into the man’s ears
and, spitting, touched his tongue;
then he looked up to heaven and groaned, and said to him,
“Ephphatha!” (that is, “Be opened!”)
And immediately the man’s ears were opened,
his speech impediment was removed,
and he spoke plainly.
He ordered them not to tell anyone.
But the more he ordered them not to,
the more they proclaimed it.
They were exceedingly astonished and they said,
“He has done all things well.
He makes the deaf hear and the mute speak.”
