恭讀聖路加福音　1:57-66

依撒伯爾滿了產期，就生了一個兒子。她的鄰居和親戚聽說上主向她大施仁慈，都和她一同歡樂。到了第八天，人們來給這孩子行割損禮，並願意照他父親的名字叫他匝加利亞。他的母親說：「不，要叫他若翰。」他們就向她說：「在你親族中沒有叫這個名字的。」他們便向他的父親打手勢，看他願叫他什麼。他要了一塊小板，寫道：「若翰是他的名字。」眾人都驚訝起來。匝加利亞的口和舌頭立時開了，遂開口讚美天主。於是，所有的鄰居都滿懷怕情；這一切事就傳遍了全猶大山區，凡聽見的人都將這事存在心中，說：「這孩子將成為什麼人物啊？」因為上主的手與他同在。

—上主的話。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 1:57-66

57 Now the time came for Elizabeth to be delivered, and she gave birth to a son. 58 And her neighbors and kinsfolk heard that the Lord had shown great mercy to her, and they rejoiced with her. 59 And on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they would have named him Zechariah after his father, 60 but his mother said, “Not so; he shall be called John.” 61 And they said to her, “None of your kindred is called by this name.” 62 And they made signs to his father, inquiring what he would have him called. 63 And he asked for a writing tablet, and wrote, “His name is John.” And they all marveled. 64 And immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue loosed, and he spoke, blessing God. 65 And fear came on all their neighbors. And all these things were talked about through all the hill country of Judea; 66 and all who heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, “What then will this child be?” For the hand of the Lord was with him.

恭讀聖路加福音　1:46-56

瑪利亞遂說：「我的靈魂頌揚上主，我的心神歡躍於天主，我的救主，因為他垂顧了他婢女的卑微；今後萬世萬代都要稱我有福；因為全能在我身上行了大事，他的名字是聖的，他的仁慈世世代代於無窮世，賜與敬畏他的人。他伸出了手臂施展大能，驅散那些心高氣傲的人。他從高座上推下權勢者，卻舉揚了卑微貧困的人。他曾使饑餓者飽饗美物，反使那富有者空手而去。他曾回憶起自己的仁慈，扶助了他的僕人以色列；正如他向我們的祖先所說過的恩許，施恩於亞巴郎和他的子孫，直到永遠。」瑪利亞同依撒伯爾住了三個月左右，就回本家去了。

—上主的話。

(4th Week of Advent – Monday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 1:46-56

46 And Mary said, “My soul magnifies the Lord, 47 and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, 48 for he has regarded the low estate of his handmaiden. For behold, henceforth all generations will call me blessed; 49 for he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name. 50 And his mercy is on those who fear him from generation to generation. 51 He has shown strength with his arm, he has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts, 52 he has put down the mighty from their thrones, and exalted those of low degree; 53 he has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent empty away. 54 He has helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy, 55 as he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his posterity for ever.” 56 And Mary remained with her about three months, and returned to her home.

主日講道 – 將臨期第四主日 (2014年12月21日)

by | Dec 20, 2014 | Gospel Reflection, Homily, Prayers, Reflection, Sharing

恭讀聖路加福音　1:26-38

那時候，天使加俾額爾奉天主差遣，往加里肋亞一座名叫納匝肋的城去，到一位童貞女那裡；她已與達味家族中，一個名叫若瑟的男子訂了婚；童貞女的名字叫瑪利亞。
天使進去向瑪利亞說：「萬福！充滿恩寵者，上主與你同在！」 【在女人中你是蒙祝福的。】瑪利亞卻因這話驚惶不安，便思慮這樣的請安，有什麼意思。
天使對她說：「瑪利亞，不要害怕，因為你在天主前，獲得了寵幸。看，你將懷孕生子，並要給他起名叫耶穌。他將是偉大的，並被稱為至高者的兒子；上主天主要把他祖先達味的御座賜給他。他要為王，統治雅各伯家，直到永遠；他的王權沒有終結。」
瑪利亞便向天使說：「這事怎能成就？因為我不認識男人。」
天使答覆她說：「聖神要臨於你，至高者的能力要庇蔭你，因此，那要誕生的聖者，將稱為天主的兒子。且看，你的親戚依撒伯爾，她雖在老年，仍懷了男胎，本月已六個月了；她原是素稱不生育的。因為，在天主前，是沒有不能的事。」
瑪利亞說：「看！上主的婢女，願照你的話，成就於我吧！」天使便離開她去了。

—上主的話。

(4th Sunday of Advent)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 1:26-38

26 In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, 27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary. 28 And he came to her and said, “Hail, O favored one, the Lord is with you!” 29 But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be. 30 And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 31 And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus. 32 He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David, 33 and he will reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there will be no end.” 34 And Mary said to the angel, “How shall this be, since I have no husband?” 35 And the angel said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God. 36 And behold, your kinswoman Elizabeth in her old age has also conceived a son; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren. 37 For with God nothing will be impossible.”38 And Mary said, “Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.

到了第六個月，天使加俾額爾奉天主差遣，往加里肋亞一座名叫納匝肋的城去，到一位童貞女那裡。她已與達味家族中的一個名叫若瑟的男子訂了婚，童貞女的名子叫瑪利亞。天使進去向她說：「萬福！充滿恩寵者，上主與你同在！」【在女人中你是蒙祝福的】她卻因這話驚惶不安，便思慮這樣的請安有什麼意思。天使對她說：「瑪利亞，不要害怕，因為你在天主前獲得了寵幸。看，你將懷孕生子，並要給他起名叫耶穌。他將是偉大的，並被稱為至高者的兒子，上主天主要把他祖先達味的御座賜給他。他要為王統治雅各伯家，直到永遠；他的王權沒有終結。」瑪利亞便向天使說：「這事怎能成就？因我不認識男人。」天使答覆她說：「聖神要臨於你，至高者的能力要蔭庇你。因此，那要誕生的聖者，將稱為天主的兒子。且看，你的親戚依撒伯爾，她雖在老年，卻懷了男胎，本月已六個月了，她原是素稱不生育的，因為在天主前沒有不能的事。」瑪利亞說：「看！上主的婢女，願照你的話成就於我吧！」天使便離開她去了。
