聖瑪爾大 (紀念)

恭讀聖路加福音 10:38-42

那時候,耶穌進了一個村莊。有一個名叫瑪爾大的女人,把耶穌接到家中。她有一個妹妹,名叫瑪利亞,坐在主的腳前聽他講話。瑪爾大為伺候耶穌,忙碌不已,便上前來說:「主!我的妹妹丟下我一個人伺候,你不介意嗎?請叫她來幫助我吧!」主回答她說:「瑪爾大,瑪爾大!你為了許多事操心忙碌,其實需要的唯有一件。瑪利亞選擇了更好的一份,是不能從她奪去的。」

—上主的話。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 10:38-42

38 Now as they went on their way, he entered a village; and a woman named Martha received him into her house. 39 And she had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet and listened to his teaching. 40 But Martha was distracted with much serving; and she went to him and said, “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me.” 41 But the Lord answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things; 42 one thing is needful. Mary has chosen the good portion, which shall not be taken away from her.”

—The Gospel of the Lord.
