恭讀聖路加福音 23:35-43

耶穌被釘在十字架上時,民眾站著觀望;首領們嗤笑耶穌,說:「別人,他救了;如果這人是天主的受傅者、被選者,就救他自己吧!」
兵士也戲弄耶穌,前來把醋遞給他,說:「如果你是猶太人的君王,就救你自己吧!」在他頭上,還有一塊用希臘文、拉丁文及希伯來文,寫的罪狀牌:「這是猶太人的君王。」
懸掛著的凶犯中,有一個侮辱耶穌說:「你不是默西亞嗎?救救你自己和我們吧!」
另一個凶犯,應聲責斥他說:「你既然受著同樣的刑罰,連天主你都不怕嗎?這刑罰對我們是理所當然的,因為我們所受的,是罪有應得;但是,這個人,從未做過什麼不正當的事。」隨後說:「耶穌,當你來為王時,請你紀念我!」
耶穌給他說:「我實在告訴你:今天,你就要與我一同在樂園裡。」

—上主的話。

(34th Sunday in Ordinary Time – Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 23:35-43

35 And the people stood by, watching; but the rulers scoffed at him, saying, “He saved others; let him save himself, if he is the Christ of God, his Chosen One!” 36 The soldiers also mocked him, coming up and offering him vinegar, 37 and saying, “If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!” 38 There was also an inscription over him, “This is the King of the Jews.” 39 One of the criminals who were hanged railed at him, saying, “Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us!” 40 But the other rebuked him, saying, “Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? 41 And we indeed justly; for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.” 42 And he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” 43 And he said to him, “Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise.”
