神父講道 – 常年期第十四週 (週六) (2018年7月14日)

恭讀聖瑪竇福音 10:24-33

那時候,耶穌向他的門徒說:「沒有徒弟勝過師傅的,也沒有僕人勝過他主人的;徒弟能如他的師傅一樣,僕人能如他的主人一樣,也就夠了。若人們稱家主為『貝耳則步』,對他的家人更該怎樣呢?所以,你們不要害怕他們;因為沒有遮掩的事,將來不被揭露的;也沒有隱瞞的事,將來不被知道的。我在暗中給你們所說的,你們要在光天化日之下報告出來;你們由耳語所聽到的,要在屋頂上張揚出來。你們不要害怕那殺害肉身,而不能殺害靈魂的;但更要害怕那能使靈魂和肉身陷於地獄中的。兩隻麻雀不是賣一個銅錢嗎?但若沒有你們天父的許可,牠們中連一隻也不會掉在地上。就是你們的頭髮,也都一一數過了。所以,你們不要怕;你們比許多麻雀還貴重呢!凡在人前承認我的,我在我天上的父前也必承認他;但誰若在人前否認我,我在我天上的父前也必否認他。」

—上主的話。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 10:24-33

Jesus said to his Apostles: “No disciple is above his teacher, no slave above his master. It is enough for the disciple that he become like his teacher, for the slave that he become like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more those of his household!
“Therefore do not be afraid of them. Nothing is concealed that will not be revealed, nor secret that will not be known. What I say to you in the darkness, speak in the light; what you hear whispered, proclaim on the housetops. And do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather, be afraid of the one who can destroy both soul and body in Gehenna. Are not two sparrows sold for a small coin? Yet not one of them falls to the ground without your Father’s knowledge. Even all the hairs of your head are counted. So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. Everyone who acknowledges me before others I will acknowledge before my heavenly Father. But whoever denies me before others, I will deny before my heavenly Father.”

—The Gospel of the Lord.
