恭讀聖馬爾谷福音 1:7-11

那時候,若翰宣告說:「那比我更有力量的,要在我以後來,我連俯身解他的鞋帶也不配。我以水洗你們,他卻要以聖神洗你們。」

在那些日子裡,耶穌由加里肋亞納匝肋來,在約旦河裏受了若翰的洗。他剛從水裏上來,就看見天裂開了,聖神有如鴿子降在他上面;又有聲音從天上說:「你是我的愛子,我因你而喜悅。」

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 1:7-11

7 And he [John the Baptist] preached, saying, “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie. 8 I have baptized you with water; but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.” 9. In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10 And when he came up out of the water, immediately he saw the heavens opened and the Spirit descending upon him like a dove; 11 and a voice came from heaven, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.”
