恭讀聖路加福音　15:1-3,11-32
那時候，稅吏及罪人，都來接近耶穌，為聽祂講道。法利塞人及經師竊竊私議，說：「這個人與罪人交往，又同他們吃飯。」耶穌於是對他們設了這個比喻，說：「一個人，有兩個兒子，那小的，向父親說：父親，請把我應得的一分家產，分給我吧！父親於是把產業，分給他們。過了不多幾天，小兒子把所有的一切，都收拾起來，就往遠方去了。他在那裡荒淫度日，耗盡他的錢財。「當他把所有的，都揮霍盡了以後，那地方正遇著大荒年，他便開始窮困起來。他去投靠當地一個居民；那人打發他，到自己的莊田裡，去放豬。他恨不得拿豬吃的豆莢，來果腹，可是，沒有人給他。「他反躬自問：我父親有多少傭工，都口糧豐盛，我在這裡，反要餓死！我要起身，到我父親那裡去，並且要給他說：父親！我得罪了天，也得罪了你。我不配再稱作你的兒子，把我當作你的一個傭工吧！他便起身，到他父親那裡去了。「他離的還遠的時候，他父親就看見了他，動了憐憫的心，跑上前去，擁抱他，熱情地親吻他。「兒子向他父親說：父親，我得罪了天，也得罪了你，我不配再稱作你的兒子！「他父親卻吩咐自己的僕人，說：你們快拿出上等的長袍，給他穿上，把戒指戴在他手上，給他穿上鞋，再把那隻肥牛犢牽來，宰了，我們應吃喝歡宴，因為我這個兒子，是死而復生，失而復得了。他們就歡宴起來。「那時，他的長子，正在田裡。當他回來，快到家的時候，聽見有奏樂及歌舞的聲音，於是叫一個僕人過來，問他這是什麼事。「僕人向他說：你弟弟回來了，你父親因為見他無恙歸來，便為他宰了那隻肥牛犢。長子就發怒，不肯進去。他父親於是出來，勸解他。「他回答父親說：你看，這些年來，我服事你，從未違背過你的命令，而你從未給過我一隻小山羊，讓我同我的朋友們歡宴；但你這個兒子，同娼妓耗盡了你的財產，他一回來，你反而為他宰了那隻肥牛犢。「父親給他說：孩子！你常同我在一起，凡我所有的，都是你的；只因為你這個弟弟，死而復生，失而復得，我們應當歡宴喜樂！」

(4th Sunday of Lent)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 15:1-3,11-32

1 Now the tax collectors and sinners were all drawing near to hear him.2 And the Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, “This man receives sinners and eats with them.” 3 So he told them this parable:

11 And he said, “There was a man who had two sons; 12 and the younger of them said to his father, `Father, give me the share of property that falls to me.’ And he divided his living between them. 13 Not many days later, the younger son gathered all he had and took his journey into a far country, and there he squandered his property in loose living. 14 And when he had spent everything, a great famine arose in that country, and he began to be in want. 15 So he went and joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed swine. 16 And he would gladly have fed on the pods that the swine ate; and no one gave him anything. 17 But when he came to himself he said, `How many of my father’s hired servants have bread enough and to spare, but I perish here with hunger! 18 I will arise and go to my father, and I will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you; 19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son; treat me as one of your hired servants.”‘ 20 And he arose and came to his father. But while he was yet at a distance, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and embraced him and kissed him. 21 And the son said to him, `Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you; I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’ 22 But the father said to his servants, `Bring quickly the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet; 23 and bring the fatted calf and kill it, and let us eat and make merry; 24 for this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found.’ And they began to make merry.

25 “Now his elder son was in the field; and as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing. 26 And he called one of the servants and asked what this meant. 27 And he said to him, `Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fatted calf, because he has received him safe and sound.’ 28 But he was angry and refused to go in. His father came out and entreated him, 29 but he answered his father, `Lo, these many years I have served you, and I never disobeyed your command; yet you never gave me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends. 30 But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your living with harlots, you killed for him the fatted calf!’ 31 And he said to him, `Son, you are always with me, and all that is mine is yours. 32 It was fitting to make merry and be glad, for this your brother was dead, and is alive; he was lost, and is found.'”

神父講道 – 四旬期第三週 (週六) (2010年3月13日)

by pleung | Mar 12, 2010 | Gospel Reflection, Homily, Prayers, Reflection, Sharing

恭讀聖路加福音 18:9-14
那時，耶穌也向幾個自充為義人，而輕視他人的人，設了這個比喻：「有兩個人上聖殿去祈禱：一個是法利塞人，另一個是稅吏。那個法利塞人立著，心裏這樣祈禱：天主，我感謝你，因為我不像其他的人，勒索、不義、奸淫，也不像這個稅吏。我每周兩次禁食，凡我所得的，都捐獻十分之一。那個稅吏卻遠遠地站著，連舉目望天都不敢，只是捶著自己的胸膛說：天主，可憐我這個罪人吧！我告訴你們：這人下去，到他家裏，成了正義的，而那個人卻不然。因為凡高舉自己的，必被貶抑；凡貶抑自己的，必被高舉。」
—基督的福音。

(3rd Week of Lent – Saturday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 18:9-14

9 He also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous and despised others: 10 “Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, `God, I thank thee that I am not like other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. 12 I fast twice a week, I give tithes of all that I get.’ 13 But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, `God, be merciful to me a sinner!’ 14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for every one who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”

—The Gospel of the Lord.
