读经一（你要成为属于上主，你天主的圣洁子民。）

恭读申命纪 26:16-19

 

Moses spoke to the people, saying: "This day the LORD, your God, commands you to observe these statutes and decrees. Be careful, then, to observe them with all your heart and with all your soul.

梅瑟向民众说：“上主你的天主今天吩咐你遵行这些法令和规则，你应全心全灵谨守遵行。

 

Today you are making this agreement with the LORD: he is to be your God and you are to walk in his ways and observe his statutes, commandments and decrees, and to hearken to his voice.

今天你明认上主是你的天主，愿履行他的道路，谨守他的法令、诫命和规则，听从他的话。

 

And today the LORD is making this agreement with you: you are to be a people peculiarly his own, as he promised you; and provided you keep all his commandments,

上主今天也照他对你所说的，明认你为他特属的人民，只要你谨守他的一切诫命，

 

he will then raise you high in praise and renown and glory above all other nations he has made, and you will be a people sacred to the LORD, your God, as he promised."

并且他要使你在名誉、声望和光荣上，远超过他所造的一切民族，使你如他所说的，成为属于上主你的天主的圣洁人民。”

Gospel  MT 5:43-48

福音（你们应当是成全的，好像你们的天父是成全的一样。）

恭读圣玛窦福音 5:43-48

 

Jesus said to his disciples: "You have heard that it was said, You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy. But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you,

那时候，耶稣对他的门徒说：“你们一向听说过：‘你应爱你的近人，恨你的仇人。’我却对你们说：你们当爱你们的仇人！当为迫害你们的人祈祷！

 

that you may be children of your heavenly Father, for he makes his sun rise on the bad and the good, and causes rain to fall on the just and the unjust.

好使你们成为你们在天之父的子女，因为他使太阳上升，光照恶人，也光照善人；降雨给义人，也给不义的人。

 

For if you love those who love you, what recompense will you have? Do not the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet your brothers and sisters only, what is unusual about that?

你们若只爱那爱你们的人，你们还有什么赏报呢？税吏不是也这样作吗？你们若只问候你们的弟兄，你们作了什么特别的呢？

 

Do not the pagans do the same? So be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect."

外邦人不是也这样作吗？所以你们应当是成全的，如同你们的天父是成全的一样。”
