主日講道 – 四旬期第二主日 (2016年2月21日)

恭讀聖路加福音 9:28-36

那時候,耶穌帶著伯多祿、若望和雅各伯,上山祈禱。
正當耶穌祈禱時,他的面容改變,他的衣服潔白發光。
忽然,有兩個人,即梅瑟和厄里亞,同耶穌談話。他們顯現在光耀中,談論耶穌的去世,即耶穌在耶路撒冷,必要完成的事。
伯多祿和他的同伴,都昏昏欲睡。他們一醒過來,就看見耶穌的光耀,及在耶穌旁邊侍立的兩個人。
那兩個人正要離開時,伯多祿對耶穌說:「老師,我們在這裡真好!讓我們搭三個帳棚:一個為你,一個為梅瑟,一個為厄里亞。」伯多祿原來不知道要說什麼。
伯多祿說這話的時候,有一片雲彩遮蔽了耶穌、梅瑟和厄里亞。他們進入雲彩時,門徒就害怕起來。
從雲中有聲音說:「這是我的兒子,我所揀選的,你們要聽從他!」這聲音發出後,只見耶穌獨自一人。
當時,門徒都守了秘密,把所見的事,一點也沒有告訴任何人。

—上主的話。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 9:28-36

28 Now about eight days after these sayings he took with him Peter and John and James, and went up on the mountain to pray. 29 And as he was praying, the appearance of his countenance was altered, and his raiment became dazzling white. 30 And behold, two men talked with him, Moses and Elijah, 31 who appeared in glory and spoke of his departure, which he was to accomplish at Jerusalem. 32 Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, and when they wakened they saw his glory and the two men who stood with him. 33 And as the men were parting from him, Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is well that we are here; let us make three booths, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah” — not knowing what he said. 34 As he said this, a cloud came and overshadowed them; and they were afraid as they entered the cloud. 35 And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my beloved Son [my Chosen]; listen to him!” 36 And when the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silence and told no one in those days anything of what they had seen.

恭讀聖瑪竇福音 5:43-48

那時候,耶穌對他的門徒說:「你們一向聽說過:『你應愛你的近人,恨你的仇人。』我卻對你們說:你們當愛你們的仇人!當為迫害你們的人祈禱!好使你們成為你們在天之父的子女,因為他使太陽上升,光照惡人,也光照善人;降雨給義人,也給不義的人。你們若只愛那愛你們的人,你們還有什麼賞報呢?稅吏不是也這樣作嗎?你們若只問候你們的弟兄,你們作了什麼特別的呢?外邦人不是也這樣作嗎?所以你們應當是成全的,如同你們的天父是成全的一樣。」

—上主的話。

(1st Week of Lent – Saturday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 5:43-48

43 “You have heard that it was said, `You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47 And if you salute only your brethren, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? 48 You, therefore, must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

神父講道 – 四旬期第一週 (週五) (2016年2月19日)

恭讀聖瑪竇福音 5:20-26

那時候,耶穌對他的門徒說:「我告訴你們:除非你們的義德超過經師和法利塞人的義德,你們決進不了天國。你們一向聽過給古人說:『不可殺人!』誰若殺了人,應受裁判。我卻對你們說:凡向自己弟兄發怒的,就要受裁判;誰若向自己的弟兄說『傻子』,就要受議會的裁判;誰若說『瘋子』,就要受火獄的罰。所以,你若在祭壇前,要獻你的禮物時,在那裡想起你的弟兄有什麼怨你的事,就把你的禮物留在那裡,留在祭壇前,先去與你的弟兄和好,然後再來獻你的禮物。當你和你的對頭還在路上,趕快與他和解,免得對頭把你交與判官,判官交給差役,把你投在獄裡。我實在告訴你:非到你還了最後的一文,決不能從那裡出來。」

—上主的話。

(1st Week of Lent – Friday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 5:20-26

20 For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 21 “You have heard that it was said to the men of old, `You shall not kill; and whoever kills shall be liable to judgment.’ 22 But I say to you that every one who is angry with his brother shall be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother shall be liable to the council, and whoever says, `You fool!’ shall be liable to the hell of fire. 23 So if you are offering your gift at the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you, 24 leave your gift there before the altar and go; first be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift. 25 Make friends quickly with your accuser, while you are going with him to court, lest your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be put in prison; 26 truly, I say to you, you will never get out till you have paid the last penny.

恭讀聖瑪竇福音 7:7-12

那時候,耶穌向門徒說:「你們求,必要給你們;你們找,必要找著;你們敲,必要給你們開。因為凡是求的,就必得到;找的,就必找到;敲的,就必給他開。或者,你們中間有那個人,兒子向他求餅,反而給他石頭呢?或者求魚,反而給他蛇呢?你們縱然不善,尚且知道把好的東西給你們的兒女,何況你們在天之父,豈不更將好的賜與求他的人?
「所以,凡你們願意人給你們做的,你們也要照樣給人做:法律和先知即在於此。」

—上主的話。

(1st Week of Lent – Thursday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 7:7-12

7 “Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For every one who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. 9 Or what man of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a serpent? 11 If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him! 12 So whatever you wish that men would do to you, do so to them; for this is the law and the prophets.

群眾集合攏來的時候,耶穌開始說:「這一世代是一邪惡的世代:它要求徵兆,除了約納的徵兆外,必不給它任何其他徵兆。因為,有如約納為尼尼微人是個徵兆,將來人子為這一世代也是這樣。南方的女王,在審判時,將同這一代人起來,定他們的罪,因為她從地極來,聽撒羅滿的智慧;看,這裏有一位大於撒羅滿的!尼尼微人在審判時,將同這一代人起來,定他們的罪,因為尼尼微人因了約納的宣講而悔改了;看,這裏有一位大於約納的!

(1st Week of Lent – Wednesday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 11:29-32

29 When the crowds were increasing, he began to say, “This generation is an evil generation; it seeks a sign, but no sign shall be given to it except the sign of Jonah. 30 For as Jonah became a sign to the men of Nineveh, so will the Son of man be to this generation. 31 The queen of the South will arise at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, something greater than Solomon is here. 32 The men of Nineveh will arise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, something greater than Jonah is here.

恭讀聖瑪竇福音 6:7-15

那時候,耶穌對他的門徒說:「你們祈禱時,不要勞勞叨叨,如同外邦人一樣,他們以為只要多言,便可獲得垂允。你們不要跟他們一樣,因為你們的父,在你們求他以前。已知道你們需要什麼。所以,你們應當這樣祈禱:我們在天之父!願你的名被尊為聖,願你的國來臨,願你的旨意承行於地,如在天上一樣。我們的日用糧,求你今天賜給我們;寬免我們的罪債,猶如我們也寬免得罪我們的人;不要讓我們陷入誘惑,但救我們免於凶惡。因為你們若寬免別人的過犯,你們的天父也必寬免你們的;但你們若不寬免別人的,你們的父也必不寬免你們的過犯。」

—上主的話。

(1st Week of Lent – Tuesday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 6:7-15

7 “And in praying do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 9 Pray then like this: Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread; 12 And forgive us our debts, As we also have forgiven our debtors; 13 And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. 14 For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father also will forgive you; 15 but if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

恭讀聖瑪竇福音 25:31-46

耶穌向他的門徒說:「當人子在自己的光榮中,與眾天神一同降來時,那時,他要坐在光榮的寶座上,一切的民族,都要聚在他面前;他要把他們彼此分開,如同牧人分開綿羊和山羊一樣:把綿羊放在自己的右邊,山羊在左邊。那時,君王要對那些在他右邊的說:我父所祝福的,你們來吧!承受自創世以來,給你們預備了的國度吧!因為我餓了,你們給了我吃的;我渴了,你們給了我喝的;我作客,你們收留了我;我赤身露體,你們給了我穿;我患病,你們看顧了我;我在監裡,你們來探望了我。那時,義人回答他說:主啊!我們什麼時候見了你饑餓而供養了你,或口渴而給了你喝的?我們什麼時候見了你作客,而收留了你,或赤身露體而給了你穿的?我們什麼時候見你患病,或在監裡而來探望過你?君王便回答他們說:我實在告訴你們:凡你們對我這些最小兄弟中的一個所做的,就是對我做的。然後他又對那些在左邊的說:可咒罵的,離開我,到那給魔鬼和他的使者預備的永火裡去吧!因為我餓了,你們沒有給我吃的;我渴了,你們沒有給我喝的;我作客,你們沒有收留我;我赤身露體,你們沒有給我穿的;我患病或在監裡,你們沒有來探望我。那時,他們也要回答說:主啊!我們幾時見了你饑餓,或口渴,或作客,或赤身露體,或有病,或坐監,而我們沒有給你效勞?」那時,君王回答他們說:我實在告訴你們:凡你們沒有給這些最小中的一個做的,便是沒有給我做。這些人要進入永罰,而那些義人卻要進入永生。」

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 25:31-46

31 “When the Son of man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate them one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats, 33 and he will place the sheep at his right hand, but the goats at the left.34 Then the King will say to those at his right hand, `Come, O blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; 35 for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, 36 I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’
37 Then the righteous will answer him, `Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? 38 And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? 39 And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ 40 And the King will answer them, `Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me.’
41 Then he will say to those at his left hand, `Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels; 42 for I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ 44 Then they also will answer, `Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you?’ 45 Then he will answer them, `Truly, I say to you, as you did it not to one of the least of these, you did it not to me.’ 46 And they will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

恭讀聖路加福音 4:1-13

那時候,耶穌充滿聖神,離開約但河,就被聖神引入荒野,四十天之久,受魔鬼試探。耶穌在那段日子,什麼也沒有吃;過了那段日子,就餓了。魔鬼對耶穌說:「你如果是天主子,就命令這塊石頭變成餅吧!」
耶穌回答說:「經上記載:『人生活不只靠餅。』」
魔鬼引耶穌到高處,頃刻間把普世萬國指給耶穌看,並對耶穌說:「這一切權勢及其榮華,我都要給你,因為這一切都已全交給了我;我願意把它給誰,就給誰。所以,你如果朝拜我,這一切都是你的。」
耶穌回答說:「經上記載:『你要朝拜上主,你的天主;唯獨奉侍他。』」
魔鬼又引耶穌到耶路撒冷,把他放在聖殿頂上,向他說:「你如果是天主子,從這裡跳下去吧!因為經上記載:『他為你吩咐了自己的天使保護你;他們要用手托著你,免得你的腳踫在石頭上。』」
耶穌回答說:「經上說:『不可試探上主,你的天主。』」
魔鬼用盡了各種試探後,就離開了耶穌,再等時機。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 4:1-13

1 And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan, and was led by the Spirit 2 for forty days in the wilderness, tempted by the devil. And he ate nothing in those days; and when they were ended, he was hungry. 3 The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.” 4 And Jesus answered him, “It is written, `Man shall not live by bread alone.'” 5 And the devil took him up, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time, 6 and said to him, “To you I will give all this authority and their glory; for it has been delivered to me, and I give it to whom I will. 7 If you, then, will worship me, it shall all be yours.” 8 And Jesus answered him, “It is written, `You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve.'” 9 And he took him to Jerusalem, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down from here; 10 for it is written, `He will give his angels charge of you, to guard you,’ 11 and `On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.'” 12 And Jesus answered him, “It is said, `You shall not tempt the Lord your God.'” 13 And when the devil had ended every temptation, he departed from him until an opportune time.

7 After this he went out, and saw a tax collector, named Levi, sitting at the tax office; and he said to him, “Follow me.” 28 And he left everything, and rose and followed him. 29 And Levi made him a great feast in his house; and there was a large company of tax collectors and others sitting at table with them. 30 And the Pharisees and their scribes murmured against his disciples, saying, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?” 31 And Jesus answered them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick; 32 I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
