恭讀聖瑪竇福音 13:44-52
那時候，耶穌對群眾說：「天國好像藏在地裡的寶貝；人找到了，就把它藏起來，高興地去賣掉他所有的一切，買了那塊地。
「天國好像一個尋找完美珍珠的商人；他一找到一顆寶貴的珍珠，就去賣掉他所有的一切，買了那顆珍珠。
「天國又好像撒在海裡的網，網羅各種的魚。網一滿了，人就拉上岸來，坐下，揀好的，放在器皿裡；壞的，扔在外面。在今世的終結時，也將如此：天使要出去，把惡人由義人中分開，把他們扔在火窯裡；在那裡要有哀號和切齒。
「這一切你們都明白了嗎？」
群眾說：「是的。」
耶穌就對他們說：「為此，凡成為天國門徒的經師，就好像一個家主，從他的寶庫裡，拿出新的和舊的寶貝。」

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 13:44-52
Jesus said to his disciples: “The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure buried in a field, which a person finds and hides again, and out of joy goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant searching for fine pearls. When he finds a pearl of great price, he goes and sells all that he has and buys it. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net thrown into the sea, which collects fish of every kind. When it is full they haul it ashore and sit down to put what is good into buckets. What is bad they throw away. Thus it will be at the end of the age. The angels will go out and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.
“Do you understand all these things?” They answered, “Yes.” And he replied, “Then every scribe who has been instructed in the kingdom of heaven is like the head of a household who brings from his storeroom both the new and the old.”
