聖瑪利亞瑪達肋納 (慶日)

恭讀聖若望福音 20:1-2,11-18

一周的第一天,清晨,天還黑的時候,瑪利亞瑪達肋納來到墳墓那裡,看見石頭已從墓門移開了。於是她跑去見西滿伯多祿和耶穌所愛的那另一個門徒,對他們說:「有人從墳墓中把主搬走了,我們不知道他們把他放在那裡了。」他們便跑往墳墓那裡去。
門徒從墳墓回家去了,瑪利亞卻站在墳墓外邊痛哭;她痛哭的時候,就俯身向墳墓裡面窺看,見有兩位穿白衣的天使,坐在安放過耶穌遺體的地方:一位在頭部,一位在腳部。那兩位天使對她說:「女人!你哭什麼?」她答說:「有人把我主搬走了,我不知道他們把他放在那裡了。」說了這話,就向後轉身,見耶穌站在那裡,卻不知道他就是耶穌。耶穌向她說:「女人,你哭什麼?你找誰?」她以為是園丁,就說:「先生,若是你把他搬走了,請告訴我,你把他放在那裡,我去取回他來。」耶穌對她說:「瑪利亞!」她便轉身用希伯來話對他說:「辣步尼!」就是說「師傅」。耶穌向她說:「你別拉住我不放,因為我還沒有升到父那裡;你到我的弟兄那裡去,告訴他們:我升到我的父和你們的父那裡去,升到我的天主和你們的天主那裡去。」瑪利亞瑪達肋納就去告訴門徒說:「我見了主。」並報告了耶穌對她所說的那些話。

(Feast of Saint Mary Magdalene)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 20:1-2,11-18

On the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early in the morning, while it was still dark, and saw the stone removed from the tomb. So she ran and went to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and told them, “They have taken the Lord from the tomb, and we don’t know where they put him.”
Mary stayed outside the tomb weeping. And as she wept, she bent over into the tomb and saw two angels in white sitting there, one at the head and one at the feet where the Body of Jesus had been. And they said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “They have taken my Lord, and I don’t know where they laid him.” When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus there, but did not know it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you looking for?” She thought it was the gardener and said to him, “Sir, if you carried him away, tell me where you laid him, and I will take him.” Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned and said to him in Hebrew, “Rabbouni,” which means Teacher. Jesus said to her, “Stop holding on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am going to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'” Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord,” and then reported what he told her.

神父講道 – 常年期第十六週 (星期四) (2022年7月21日)

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。

(16th Week in Ordinary Time – Thursday)

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.

恭讀聖瑪竇福音 13:1-9

在那一天,耶穌從家裏出來,坐在海邊上,有許多群眾集合到他跟前,他只得上船坐下,群眾都站在岸上。他就用比喻給他們講論了許多事,說:「看,有個撒種的出去撒種;他撒種的時候,有的落在路旁,飛鳥來把它們吃了。有的落在石頭地裏,那裏沒有多少土壤,因為所有的土壤不深,即刻發了芽,但太陽一出來,就被曬焦;又因為沒有根,就枯乾了。有的落在荊棘中,荊棘長起來,便把它們窒息了。有的落在好地裏,就結了果實:有一百倍的,有六十倍的,有三十倍的。有耳的,聽吧!」

—上主的話。

(16th Week in Ordinary Time – Wednesday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 13:1-9

On that day, Jesus went out of the house and sat down by the sea. Such large crowds gathered around him that he got into a boat and sat down, and the whole crowd stood along the shore. And he spoke to them at length in parables, saying: “A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seed fell on the path, and birds came and ate it up.
Some fell on rocky ground, where it had little soil. It sprang up at once because the soil was not deep, and when the sun rose it was scorched, and it withered for lack of roots. Some seed fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it. But some seed fell on rich soil, and produced fruit, a hundred or sixty or thirtyfold. Whoever has ears ought to hear.”

耶穌還同群眾說話的時候,看,他的母親和他的兄弟站在外邊,想要同他說話。有人告訴他說:「看!你的母親同你的兄弟站在外邊,想要同你說話。」他卻回答那告訴他的人說:「誰是我的母親?誰是我的兄弟?」遂伸出他的手,指著自己的門徒說:「看!我的母親,我的兄弟!不拘誰遵行我在天之父的意旨,他就是我的兄弟、姊妹和母親。」

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 12:46-50

While Jesus was speaking to the crowds, his mother and his brothers appeared outside, wishing to speak with him. Someone told him, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, asking to speak with you.” But he said in reply to the one who told him, “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?” And stretching out his hand toward his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers. For whoever does the will of my heavenly Father is my brother, and sister, and mother.”

恭讀聖瑪竇福音 12:38-42

那時,有幾個經師和法利塞人對耶穌說:「師傅,我們願意你顯示一個徵兆給我們看。」他回答他們說:「邪惡淫亂的世代要求徵兆,但除了約納先知的徵兆外,必不給它其他的徵兆。有如約納曾在大魚腹中三天三夜:同樣,人子也要在地裏三天三夜。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!南方的女王,在審判時,將同這一代人起來,而定他們的罪,因為她從地極而來,聽撒羅滿的智慧;看,這裏有一位大於撒羅滿的!」

(16th Week in Ordinary Time – Monday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 12:38-42

Some of the scribes and Pharisees said to Jesus, “Teacher, we wish to see a sign from you.” He said to them in reply, “An evil and unfaithful generation seeks a sign, but no sign will be given it except the sign of Jonah the prophet. Just as Jonah was in the belly of the whale three days and three nights, so will the Son of Man be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights. At the judgment, the men of Nineveh will arise with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and there is something greater than Jonah here. At the judgment the queen of the south will arise with this generation and condemn it, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and there is something greater than Solomon here.”

那時候,耶穌進入一個村莊。有一個名叫瑪爾大的女人,把耶穌接到家裡。她有一個妹妹,名叫瑪利亞,坐在主的腳前,聽他講話。
瑪爾大為侍候耶穌,忙碌不已,便上前來,說:「主!我的妹妹丟下我一個人工作,你不介意嗎?請叫她來幫助我吧!」

Jesus entered a village where a woman whose name was Martha welcomed him. She had a sister named Mary who sat beside the Lord at his feet listening to him speak. Martha, burdened with much serving, came to him and said, “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me by myself to do the serving? Tell her to help me.” The Lord said to her in reply, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things. There is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part and it will not be taken from her.”

那時候,法利塞人出去,商討怎樣陷害耶穌,怎樣除滅他。耶穌知道了,就離開那裏;有許多人跟隨他,他都治好了他們;且警告他們不要將他傳揚出去:這是為應驗那藉依撒意亞先知所說的話:「看,我的僕人,他是我所揀選,我所鍾愛的;他是我心靈所喜悅的;我要使我的神住在他身上,他必向外邦人傳佈真道。他不爭辯,也不喧嚷,在街市上沒有人聽到他的聲音:已壓破的蘆葦,他不折斷;將熄滅的燈心,他不吹滅,直至他使真道勝利。外邦人將要期待他的名字。」

(Memorial of Our Lady of Mount Carmel)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 12:14-21

The Pharisees went out and took counsel against Jesus to put him to death.
When Jesus realized this, he withdrew from that place. Many people followed him, and he cured them all, but he warned them not to make him known. This was to fulfill what had been spoken through Isaiah the prophet:
Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved in whom I delight; I shall place my Spirit upon him, and he will proclaim justice to the Gentiles. He will not contend or cry out, nor will anyone hear his voice in the streets. A bruised reed he will not break, a smoldering wick he will not quench, until he brings justice to victory. And in his name the Gentiles will hope.

那時,耶穌在安息日由麥田中經過;他的門徒餓了,開始掐麥穗吃。法利塞人一見,便對他說:「看,他的門徒作安息日不許作的事。」耶穌對他們說:「你們沒有念過:達味與那些同他在一起的人,饑餓時,作了什麼?他怎樣進了天主的殿,吃了供餅?這供餅原是不准他吃,也不准同他在一起的人吃,而是只許司祭吃的。或者你們在法律上沒有念過:在安息日,司祭在聖殿內違犯了安息日,也不算為罪過嗎?但我告訴你們:這裏有比聖殿更大的。假如你們瞭解『我喜歡仁愛勝過祭獻』是什麼,你們就決不會判斷無罪的人了,因為人子是安息日的主。」

(Memorial of Saint Bonaventure, Bishop and Doctor of the Church)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 12:1-8

Jesus was going through a field of grain on the sabbath. His disciples were hungry and began to pick the heads of grain and eat them. When the Pharisees saw this, they said to him, “See, your disciples are doing what is unlawful to do on the sabbath.” He said to the them, “Have you not read what David did when he and his companions were hungry, how he went into the house of God and ate the bread of offering, which neither he nor his companions but only the priests could lawfully eat? Or have you not read in the law that on the sabbath the priests serving in the temple violate the sabbath and are innocent? I say to you, something greater than the temple is here. If you knew what this meant, I desire mercy, not sacrifice, you would not have condemned these innocent men. For the Son of Man is Lord of the sabbath.”
