常年期第六主日
Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time
读经一
恭读德训篇 15:16-21
如果你愿意，就能遵守上主的诫命；你是否忠信，完全在于你的自决。
上主在你面前，放置了火与水，你可任意伸手选取。
生死善恶，都摆在人面前；人愿意什么，就赐给他什么。
因为，上主的智慧，广大无边；他无所不能，无所不见。
他的眼睛注视敬畏他的人；他洞悉人的一切行为。
他从不吩咐人作恶，也从未准人犯罪。

A reading from the Book of Sirach 15:15-20
If you choose you can keep the commandments, they will save you;
if you trust in God, you too shall live;
he has set before you fire and water
to whichever you choose, stretch forth your hand.
Before man are life and death, good and evil,
whichever he chooses shall be given him.
Immense is the wisdom of the Lord;
he is mighty in power, and all-seeing.
The eyes of God are on those who fear him;
he understands man’s every deed.
No one does he command to act unjustly,
to none does he give license to sin.
读经二
恭读圣保禄宗徒致格林多人前书 2:6-10
弟兄姐妹们：
我们在成全的人当中，也讲智慧，不过，不是今世的智慧，也不是今世将要消灭的、有权势者的智慧。
我们所讲的，是那隐藏的，天主奥秘的智慧；这智慧是天主在万世之前，为使我们获得光荣，所预定的。今世有权势的人当中，没有一个认识这智慧，因为如果他们认识了，就决不会将光荣的主，钉在十字架上。经上这样记载：“天主为爱他的人，所准备的，是眼所未见，耳所未闻，人心所未想到的。”
可是，天主借着圣神，将这一切，启示给我们了，因为圣神洞察一切，就连天主的深奥，他也洞悉。

A reading from the First Letter of St. Paul to the Corinthians 2:6-10
Brothers and sisters:
We speak a wisdom to those who are mature,
not a wisdom of this age,
nor of the rulers of this age who are passing away.
Rather, we speak God’s wisdom, mysterious, hidden,
which God predetermined before the ages for our glory,
and which none of the rulers of this age knew;
for, if they had known it,
they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
But as it is written:
What eye has not seen, and ear has not heard,
and what has not entered the human heart,
what God has prepared for those who love him,
this God has revealed to us through the Spirit.
For the Spirit scrutinizes everything, even the depths of God.
福音
恭读圣玛窦福音 5:17-37
那时候，耶稣对门徒说：
“你们不要以为我来是废除法律或先知，我来不是为废除，而是为成全。我实实在在告诉你们：即使天地过去了，一撇或一画，也决不会从法律上过去，且必要全部完成。
“所以，谁若废除这些诫命中最小的一条，也这样教训人，在天国里，他将称为最小的；但谁若遵守了诫命，也这样教训人，这人在天国里，将称为大的。
“我告诉你们：除非你们的义德，超过经师和法利塞人的义德，你们决不能进入天国。
“你们一向听过对古人说：‘不可杀人！’谁若杀了人，应受裁判。我却对你们说：凡向自己弟兄发怒的，就要受裁判；谁若向自己的弟兄说“傻子”，就要受议会的裁判；谁说“疯子”，就要受火狱的罚。”
“所以，若你献礼时，在祭坛前，想起你的弟兄有什么埋怨你的事，你就该把你的礼物留在祭坛前，先去与你的弟兄和好，然后再来献你的礼物。当你和你的对头还在路上，赶快与他和解，免得对头把你交给判官，判官交给差役，把你关在监狱里。我实在告诉你：除非你还清最后一文钱，决不能从那里出来。”
“你们一向听说过：‘不可奸淫！’我却对你们说：凡注视妇女，有意贪恋她的，这人已在心里奸淫了她。”
“若是你的右眼使你跌倒，把它挖出来，扔掉，因为你丧失一个肢体，比你全身投入地狱，为你更好；若你的右手使你跌倒，砍下它，扔掉，因为你丧失一个肢体，比你全身投入地狱，为你更好。”
“你们又听说过：‘谁若休妻，就该给她休书。’我却给你们说：除了姘居外，凡休妻的，便是叫她受奸污；并且谁若娶被休的妇人，就是犯奸淫。”
“你们又一向听过对古人说：‘不可发虚誓！要向上主偿还你的誓愿！’我却对你们说：你们总不可发誓：不可指天，因为天，是天主的宝座；不可指地，因为地，是他的脚凳；不可指耶路撒冷，因为她是大王的城市；也不可指你的头发誓，因为你不能使一根头发变白，或变黑。”
“你们应这样：是就说是，非就说非；其他多余的，便是出于邪恶。”
Gospel
A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 5:17-37
Jesus said to his disciples:
“Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets.
I have come not to abolish but to fulfill.
Amen, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away,
not the smallest letter or the smallest part of a letter
will pass from the law,
until all things have taken place.
Therefore, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments
and teaches others to do so
will be called least in the kingdom of heaven.
But whoever obeys and teaches these commandments
will be called greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
I tell you, unless your righteousness surpasses
that of the scribes and Pharisees,
you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.
“You have heard that it was said to your ancestors,
You shall not kill; and whoever kills will be liable to judgment.
But I say to you,
whoever is angry with his brother
will be liable to judgment;
and whoever says to his brother, ‘Raqa,’
will be answerable to the Sanhedrin;
and whoever says, ‘You fool,’
will be liable to fiery Gehenna.
Therefore, if you bring your gift to the altar,
and there recall that your brother
has anything against you,
leave your gift there at the altar,
go first and be reconciled with your brother,
and then come and offer your gift.
Settle with your opponent quickly while on the way to court.
Otherwise your opponent will hand you over to the judge,
and the judge will hand you over to the guard,
and you will be thrown into prison.
Amen, I say to you,
you will not be released until you have paid the last penny.
“You have heard that it was said,
You shall not commit adultery.
But I say to you,
everyone who looks at a woman with lust
has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
If your right eye causes you to sin,
tear it out and throw it away.
It is better for you to lose one of your members
than to have your whole body thrown into Gehenna.
And if your right hand causes you to sin,
cut it off and throw it away.
It is better for you to lose one of your members
than to have your whole body go into Gehenna.
“It was also said,
Whoever divorces his wife must give her a bill of divorce.
But I say to you,
whoever divorces his wife – unless the marriage is unlawful –
causes her to commit adultery,
and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
“Again you have heard that it was said to your ancestors,
Do not take a false oath,
but make good to the Lord all that you vow.
But I say to you, do not swear at all;
not by heaven, for it is God’s throne;
nor by the earth, for it is his footstool;
nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.
Do not swear by your head,
for you cannot make a single hair white or black.
Let your ‘Yes’ mean ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No’ mean ‘No.’
Anything more is from the evil one.”
