恭讀聖若望福音 3:13-17

那時候,耶穌對尼苛德摩說:「沒有人上過天,除了那自天降下,而仍在天上的人子。正如梅瑟曾在曠野,高舉了蛇,人子也應照樣,被舉起來,使凡信的人,在祂內得到永生。」天主竟然這樣愛了世界,甚至賜下自己的獨生子,使凡信祂的人,不至喪亡,反而獲得永生,因為天主沒有派遣子到世界上,來審判世界,而是為叫世界,藉祂而獲救。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 3:13-17

13 (Jesus answered) “No one has ascended into heaven but he who descended from heaven, the Son of man. 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of man be lifted up, 15 that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.” 16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God sent the Son into the world, not to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him.
