恭讀聖馬爾谷福音 7:31-37

那時候,耶穌從提洛地區出來,經過漆冬,走向加里肋亞海,到了十城區的中心地帶。
有人帶來一個又聾又啞的人,求耶穌給他覆手。耶穌便帶這人離開群眾,來到一邊,把手指放進他的耳朵,並用唾沫,抹他的舌頭,然後望天歎息,向他說:「厄法達」就是說:「開了吧!」這人的耳朵就立刻開了,舌結也解了,說話也清楚了。
耶穌於是囑咐群眾,不要告訴任何人;但他越囑咐他們,他們便越發宣傳。
眾人都不勝驚奇,說:「他所做的一切都好:使聾人聽見,叫啞吧說話。」

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark 7:31-37

31 Then he returned from the region of Tyre, and went through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee, through the region of the Decapolis. 32 And they brought to him a man who was deaf and had an impediment in his speech; and they besought him to lay his hand upon him. 33 And taking him aside from the multitude privately, he put his fingers into his ears, and he spat and touched his tongue; 34 and looking up to heaven, he sighed, and said to him, “Ephphatha,” that is, “Be opened.” 35 And his ears were opened, his tongue was released, and he spoke plainly. 36 And he charged them to tell no one; but the more he charged them, the more zealously they proclaimed it. 37 And they were astonished beyond measure, saying, “He has done all things well; he even makes the deaf hear and the dumb speak.”
