恭讀聖若望福音 6:22-29

那時候,留在海對岸的群眾,看見只有一隻小船留在那裏,也知道耶穌沒有同他的門徒一起上船,只有他的門徒走了——然而從提庇黎雅有別的小船來到了,靠近我主祝謝後,人們吃餅的地方——當群眾一發覺耶穌和他的門徒都不在那裏時,他們便上了那些小船,往葛法翁找耶穌去了。當群眾在海對岸找著他時,就對他說:「辣彼!你什麼時候到了這裏?」
耶穌回答說:「我實實在在告訴你們:你們尋找我,並不是因為看到了神蹟,而是因為吃餅吃飽了。你們不要為那可損壞的食糧勞碌,而要為那存留到永生的食糧勞碌,即人子所要賜給你們的,因為他是天主聖父所印證的。」他們問說:「我們該做什麼,才算做天主的事業呢?」耶穌回答說:「天主要你們所做的事業,就是要你們信從他所派遣來的。」

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 6:22-29

22 On the next day the people who remained on the other side of the sea saw that there had been only one boat there, and that Jesus had not entered the boat with his disciples, but that his disciples had gone away alone. 23 However, boats from Tiberias came near the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks. 24 So when the people saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they themselves got into the boats and went to Capernaum, seeking Jesus. 25 When they found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, “Rabbi, when did you come here?” 26 Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves. 27 Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of man will give to you; for on him has God the Father set his seal.” 28 Then they said to him, “What must we do, to be doing the works of God?” 29 Jesus answered them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.”
