A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 13:16-17

“But blessed are your eyes, because they see, and your ears, because they hear. Amen, I say to you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.”

—The Gospel of the Lord.

恭讀聖瑪竇福音 13:10-17

那時候,門徒前來對耶穌說:「為什麼你用比喻對群眾講話?」耶穌回答他們說:「因為天國的奧妙是給你們知道,並不是給他們知道。因為凡有的,還要給他,使他富足;但是,凡沒有的,連他所有的,也要由他奪去。為此,我用比喻對他們講話,是因為他們看,卻看不見;聽,卻聽不見,也不瞭解;這樣為他們正應驗了依撒意亞的預言,說:『你們聽是聽,但不瞭解;看是看,但不明白。因為這百姓的心遲鈍了,耳朵難以聽見;他們閉了眼睛,免得眼睛看見,耳朵聽見,心裏瞭解而轉變,而要我醫好他們。』你們的眼睛有福,因為看得見:你們的耳朵有福,因為聽得見。我實在告訴你們:有許多先知和義人,想看你們所看見的,而沒有看到;想聽你們所聽見的,而沒有聽到。」

—上主的話。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 13:10-17

The disciples approached Jesus and said, “Why do you speak to the crowd in parables?” He said to them in reply, “Because knowledge of the mysteries of the Kingdom of heaven has been granted to you, but to them it has not been granted. To anyone who has, more will be given and he will grow rich; from anyone who has not, even what he has will be taken away. This is why I speak to them in parables, because they look but do not see and hear but do not listen or understand. Isaiah’s prophecy is fulfilled in them, which says:
You shall indeed hear but not understand, you shall indeed look but never see. Gross is the heart of this people,
they will hardly hear with their ears, they have closed their eyes, lest they see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their hearts and be converted and I heal them.
“But blessed are your eyes, because they see, and your ears, because they hear. Amen, I say to you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.”

—The Gospel of the Lord.
