聖母蒙召升天節 (節日)

恭讀聖路加福音 1:39-56

瑪利亞就在那幾日起身,急速往山區去,到了猶大的一座城。她進入匝加利亞的家,就向依撒伯爾請安。
依撒伯爾一聽到瑪利亞請安,胎兒就在她腹中歡躍。依撒伯爾於是充滿了聖神,高聲說:
「在女人中,你是蒙祝福的,你的胎兒,也是蒙祝福的。我主的母親,駕臨我這裡,這是我那裡得來的呢?看,你請安的聲音,一入我耳,胎兒就在我腹中,歡喜踴躍。那信了由上主傳於她的話必要完成的,是有福的。」
瑪利亞於是說:
「我的靈魂頌揚上主,我的心神歡躍於天主,我的救主,因為他垂顧了她婢女的卑微,今後萬世萬代都要稱我有福;因全能者在我身上,行了大事,他的名字是聖的,他的仁慈世世代代於無窮世,賜與敬畏他的人。
「他伸出了手臂,施展大能,驅散那些心高氣傲的人。他從高座上,推下權勢者,卻舉揚了卑微貧困的人。他曾使飢餓者,飽饗美物,反使那富有者,空手而去。
「他曾回憶起自己的仁慈,扶助了他的僕人以色列,正如他向我們祖先所說過的恩許,施恩於亞巴郎和他的子孫,直到永遠。」
瑪利亞同依撒伯爾,住了三個月左右,就回家去了。

(Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 1:39-56

Mary set out and traveled to the hill country in haste to a town of Judah, where she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit, cried out in a loud voice and said, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. And how does this happen to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? For at the moment the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy. Blessed are you who believed that what was spoken to you by the Lord would be fulfilled.”
And Mary said:
“My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my Savior for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant. From this day all generations will call me blessed: the Almighty has done great things for me and holy is his Name. He has mercy on those who fear him in every generation. He has shown the strength of his arm, and has scattered the proud in their conceit. He has cast down the mighty from their thrones, and has lifted up the lowly. He has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent away empty. He has come to the help of his servant Israel for he has remembered his promise of mercy, the promise he made to our fathers, to Abraham and his children forever.”
Mary remained with her about three months and then returned to her home.

—The Gospel of the Lord.
