聖德蘭‧亞維拉 (大德肋撒) (貞女、聖師) (紀念)
恭讀聖路加福音 12:1-7
那時,有成千上萬的群眾集合攏來,竟至互相踐踏。耶穌開始先對自己的門徒說:「你們要謹防法利塞人的酵母,即他們的虛偽。但是,沒有遮掩的事,將來不被揭露的;也沒有隱藏的事,將來不被知道的。因此,你們在暗處所說的,將來必要在明處被人聽見;在內室低聲所說的,將來必要在屋頂上張揚出來。我告訴你們做我朋友的人:你們不要害怕那些殺害肉身,然後不能再做什麼的人。我要指給你們,誰是你們所應當怕的:你們應當害怕那殺害肉身以後,還有權柄把人投入地獄的那一位;的確,我告訴你們:應當害怕這一位!五隻麻雀不是賣兩文銅錢嗎?然而在天主前,牠們中沒有一隻被遺忘的。就是你們的頭髮,也一一被數過了;你們不要害怕!你們比許多麻雀尊貴得多了。」

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 12:1-7

1 In the meantime, when so many thousands of the multitude had gathered together that they trod upon one another, he began to say to his disciples first, “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy. 2 Nothing is covered up that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known. 3 Therefore whatever you have said in the dark shall be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in private rooms shall be proclaimed upon the housetops. 4 “I tell you, my friends, do not fear those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. 5 But I will warn you whom to fear: fear him who, after he has killed, has power to cast into hell; yes, I tell you, fear him! 6 Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? And not one of them is forgotten before God. 7 Why, even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not; you are of more value than many sparrows.

—The Gospel of the Lord.
