(尼尼微人离开了邪路，信了天主。)
恭读约纳先知书 Jon 3:1-5, 10
上主的话再一次传给约纳说：「你起来，往尼尼微大城去，向他们宣布我吩咐你的事。」 约纳便遵照上主的话，起身往尼尼微去了。尼尼微在天主前是一座大城，需要三天的时间才走得完。 约纳开始进城，走了一天的路程，他就宣布说：「还有四十天，尼尼微就要毁灭了。」 尼尼微人便信了天主，立即宣布禁食，所有的人从大到小，都身披苦衣。 天主看到他们所行的事，看到他们离开了邪路，就怜悯他们，没有将已宣布的灾祸降到他们身上。 —-上主的圣言
The word of the LORD came to Jonah, saying:
“Set out for the great city of Nineveh,
and announce to it the message that I will tell you.”
So Jonah made ready and went to Nineveh,
according to the LORD’S bidding.
Now Nineveh was an enormously large city;
it took three days to go through it.
Jonah began his journey through the city,
and had gone but a single day’s walk announcing,
“Forty days more and Nineveh shall be destroyed, ”
when the people of Nineveh believed God;
they proclaimed a fast
and all of them, great and small, put on sackcloth.
When God saw by their actions how they turned from their evil way,
he repented of the evil that he had threatened to do to them;
he did not carry it out.
(这世界的局面正在逝去)
恭读圣保禄宗徒致格林多人前书 1 Cor 7:29-31
弟兄们，我给你们说：时间是短促的，从今以后有妻子的要像没有的一样；哭泣的要像不哭泣的；欢乐的要像不欢乐的；置产的要像没有财产的一样； 享用这世上财富的要像不享用的一样，因为我们所看到的这世界正在逝去。 —-上主的圣言
I tell you, brothers and sisters, the time is running out.
From now on, let those having wives act as not having them,
those weeping as not weeping,
those rejoicing as not rejoicing,
those buying as not owning,
those using the world as not using it fully.
For the world in its present form is passing away.

(你们悔改，信从福音吧！)
恭读圣玛谷福音 Mk 1:14-20
若翰被监禁以后，耶稣来到加里肋亚，宣讲天主的福音说：「时候到了，天主的国临近了，你们悔改，信从福音吧！」 有一天，耶稣沿着加里肋亚海边行走，看见西满和西满的哥哥安德在海里撒网，他们原是渔夫。 耶稣对他们说：「来跟随我吧！我要使你们成为赢得人的渔夫。」他们便立刻抛下鱼网，跟随了祂。 耶稣又往前走了不远，看见载伯德的儿子雅格和他的弟弟若望，正在船上整理鱼网， 耶稣立即召唤了他们；他们就把父亲载伯德和佣工留在船上，跟随祂去了。 —-基督的福音
After John had been arrested,
Jesus came to Galilee proclaiming the gospel of God:
“This is the time of fulfillment.
The kingdom of God is at hand.
Repent, and believe in the gospel.”
As he passed by the Sea of Galilee,
he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting their nets into the sea;
they were fishermen.
Jesus said to them,
“Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
Then they abandoned their nets and followed him.
He walked along a little farther
and saw James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John.
They too were in a boat mending their nets.
Then he called them.
So they left their father Zebedee in the boat
along with the hired men and followed him.
(请上主发言，你的僕人在此静听)
恭读撒慕尔纪上 1 Sm 3:3b-10, 19
撒慕尔在安放天主约柜的圣殿内睡觉。上主唿唤说：「撒慕尔，撒慕尔！」 他回答说：「我在这里！」就跑到厄里面前说：「你叫我吗？我在这里。」 厄里说：「我没有叫你，回去睡吧！」他就回去睡了。上主又叫撒慕尔；撒慕尔起来，又走到厄里那里，说：「你叫我吗？我在这里。」 厄里对他说：「我儿，我没有叫你，回去睡吧！」撒慕尔不知道是上主，因为上主的话尚未启示给他。上主第三次又叫了撒慕尔； 他又起来，走到厄里那里，说：「你又叫了我吗？我在这里。」厄里才明白是上主在叫这青年，便对撒慕尔说：「你去睡吧！如果有人再叫你， 你就回答说：『请上主发言，祢的僕人在此静听。』」撒慕尔就回去，仍旧睡在原处。 上主来了，站在那里像前几次一样唿唤说：「撒慕尔，撒慕尔！」撒慕尔便回答说：「请上主发言，祢的僕人在此静听。」
撒慕尔渐渐长大；上主与他同在，使他说的话，没有一句不实现的。 —-上主的圣言
Samuel was sleeping in the temple of the LORD
where the ark of God was.
The LORD called to Samuel, who answered, “Here I am.”
Samuel ran to Eli and said, “Here I am. You called me.”
“I did not call you, ” Eli said. “Go back to sleep.”
So he went back to sleep.
Again the LORD called Samuel, who rose and went to Eli.
“Here I am, ” he said. “You called me.”
But Eli answered, “I did not call you, my son. Go back to sleep.”
At that time Samuel was not familiar with the LORD,
because the LORD had not revealed anything to him as yet.
The LORD called Samuel again, for the third time.
Getting up and going to Eli, he said, “Here I am. You called me.”
Then Eli understood that the LORD was calling the youth.
So he said to Samuel, “Go to sleep, and if you are called, reply,
Speak, LORD, for your servant is listening.”
When Samuel went to sleep in his place,
the LORD came and revealed his presence,
calling out as before, “Samuel, Samuel!”
Samuel answered, “Speak, for your servant is listening.”
Samuel grew up, and the LORD was with him, not permitting any word of his to be without effect.
(你们的身体，就是基督的肢体)
恭读圣保禄宗徒致格林多人前书 1 Cor 6:13c-15a, 17-20
弟兄们：人的身体不是为了淫乱，而是为了主，主也是为了身体。天主既然使主復活了，也要以祂的能力使我们復活。你们不知道你们的身体是基督的肢体吗？
那与主结合的，便是与祂成为一神。你们要远避邪淫。人无论犯的是什么罪，都是在身体以外犯的；但是，那犯邪淫的人，却是冒犯自己的身体。难道你们不知道，你们的身体是圣神的宫殿吗？这圣神是你们从天主领受的，祂住在你们内，你们已不属于自己了。你们原是用高价买回来的，所以你们务必要用你们的身体光荣天主。 —-上主的圣言
Brothers and sisters:
The body is not for immorality, but for the Lord,
and the Lord is for the body;
God raised the Lord and will also raise us by his power.
Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ?
But whoever is joined to the Lord becomes one Spirit with him.
Avoid immorality.
Every other sin a person commits is outside the body,
but the immoral person sins against his own body.
Do you not know that your body
is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you,
whom you have from God, and that you are not your own?
For you have been purchased at a price.
Therefore glorify God in your body.

(他们看见了祂住的地方，就在他那里住下了)
恭读圣若望福音 Jn 1:35-42
那时候，若翰和他的两个门徒站在一起，若翰看见耶稣走过，便注视着祂说：「请看，天主的羔羊！」 那两个门徒听见他说这话，便跟随了耶稣。耶稣转过身来，看见他们跟着，便问他们说：「你们找什么？」 他们回答说：「辣彼！——意思是老师——祢住在哪里？」祂对他们说：「你们来看看罢！」于是他们就去看祂所住的地方； 那一天，他们就在祂那里住下了。那时大约是下午四点钟。那听了若翰的话、而跟随了耶稣的两个人当中一个是西满‧伯铎的哥哥安德， 他先去找到他的弟弟西满，对他说：「我们遇到默西亚了！」（默西亚意思就是基督。） 然后就带他到耶稣跟前，耶稣注视着他说：「你是若望的儿子西满，你要改名叫『刻法』。」──意思就是伯铎（磐石）。 —-基督的福音
John was standing with two of his disciples,
and as he watched Jesus walk by, he said,
“Behold, the Lamb of God.”
The two disciples heard what he said and followed Jesus.
Jesus turned and saw them following him and said to them,
“What are you looking for?”
They said to him, “Rabbi” — which translated means Teacher —,
“where are you staying?”
He said to them, “Come, and you will see.”
So they went and saw where Jesus was staying,
and they stayed with him that day.
It was about four in the afternoon.
Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter,
was one of the two who heard John and followed Jesus.
He first found his own brother Simon and told him,
“We have found the Messiah” — which is translated Christ —.
Then he brought him to Jesus.
Jesus looked at him and said,
“You are Simon the son of John;
you will be called Cephas” — which is translated Peter.
(你们要到水泉来，细心听我，必将获得生命)
依撒意亚先知书 Is 55:1-11
上主说：「你们口渴的人，都到水泉这里来吧！你们没有钱的人，都来购买不花钱、完全免费的酒和奶吧！为什要为那些不能充饥的东西花钱，为那些不足以果腹的食物浪费你们的薪金呢？你们如果细心听从我，就能吃到美味，得到品尝佳餚的快乐。你们如果到我这里来，侧耳听我，你们必会获得生命；我要与你们订立一项永久的盟约，就是有关我许给达味的恩惠。我曾委任他作万民的证人，列国的领袖和主宰。至于你，你要召叫那些陌生的民族，那些不曾认识你的民族也都要来投奔你；这都是为了你的天主上主，为了那光荣了你的、以色列的圣者的缘故。
趁你们还能找到上主的时候，就该寻找祂；趁祂现在离你们不远的时候，就该唿求祂。恶人应弃恶从善，罪人该同心转意，来归附上主，好得到祂的怜悯；他们应归附我们的天主，因为祂富于仁慈。上主说：因为我的思想不是你们的思想，你们的行径和我的行径也不同。天离地有多么高，我的行径距离你们的行径，我的思想距离你们的思想也有多么远。雨和雪从天降下，不再返回原处，是要灌溉土地，使五谷萌芽生长，使播种者得到种子，供给寻食者食粮；同样，我口中所发出的话，也不能空空地回到我这里；却要完成我的旨意，执行我所指定的任务。」 —-上主的圣言
Thus says the LORD: All you who are thirsty, come to the water! You who have no money, come, receive grain and eat; come, without paying and without cost, drink wine and milk! Why spend your money for what is not bread, your wages for what fails to satisfy? Heed me, and you shall eat well, you shall delight in rich fare. Come to me heedfully, listen, that you may have life. I will renew with you the everlasting covenant, the benefits assured to David. As I made him a witness to the peoples, a leader and commander of nations, so shall you summon a nation you knew not,
and nations that knew you not shall run to you, because of the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, who has glorified you.
Seek the LORD while he may be found, call him while he is near. Let the scoundrel forsake his way,
and the wicked man his thoughts; let him turn to the LORD for mercy; to our God, who is generous in forgiving. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways my ways, says the LORD. As high as the heavens are above the earth so high are my ways above your ways and my thoughts above your thoughts.
For just as from the heavens the rain and snow come down and do not return there till they have watered the earth, making it fertile and fruitful, giving seed to the one who sows and bread to the one who eats, so shall my word be that goes forth from my mouth; my word shall not return to me void, but shall do my will, achieving the end for which I sent it.
(圣神、水和血)
恭读圣若望一书
亲爱的诸位，凡信耶稣是默西亚的，都是天主的儿女；如果我们爱一个为人父的，也必爱他的儿女。如果我们爱天主、又遵行祂的诫命，便知道我们一定也爱天主的儿女。原来爱天主，就是遵行祂的诫命，而祂的诫命并不难于遵守，因为凡是成为天主儿女的，必战胜世界；使我们战胜世界的武器，就是我们的信德。谁战胜了世界呢？不是那信耶稣是天主子的人吗？ 这一位就是经过洗礼的水和牺牲的血而来的耶稣基督，祂不但是经过水，而且也是经过水和血而来的；并且有圣神作证，因为圣神就是真理。
这一位就是经过洗礼的水和牺牲的血而来的耶稣基督，祂不但是经过水，而且也是经过水和血而来的； 并且有圣神作证，因为圣神就是真理。原来作证的有三个：就是圣神，水及血，而三者都是一致的。我们既然接受人的见证，天主的证据当然更有效力，因为天主的证据就是祂亲自为自己的儿子作证。 —-上主的圣言

(祢是我的爱子，我因祢而喜悦)
恭读圣玛谷福音 Mk 1:7-11
那时候，若翰宣告说：「在我以后要来的那一位，比我能力强，我连弯腰给祂解鞋带子也不配。我用水洗你们，祂却要用圣神洗你们。」
那时候，耶稣从加里肋亚的纳匝肋来，在约旦河里接受了若翰的洗礼。祂刚从水里上来，就看见天裂开了，圣神好像鸽子降在祂身上，又有声音从天上发出说：「祢是我的爱子，我满心喜爱祢。」 —-基督的福音
This is what John the Baptist proclaimed: “One mightier than I is coming after me. I am not worthy to stoop and loosen the thongs of his sandals. I have baptized you with water; he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.” It happened in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized in the Jordan by John. On coming up out of the water he saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit, like a dove, descending upon him. And a voice came from the heavens, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.”
(你亲生的儿子要作你的继承人)
恭读创世纪恭读撒慕尔纪下 Gn 15:1-6; 21:1-3
有一天，上主在神视中对亚巴郎说：「亚巴郎，你不要怕，我是你的盾牌；我要给你丰厚的报酬。」
亚巴郎说：「我主上主，祢能给我什么？我一直没有儿子；继承我家业的是大马士革人厄里厄则尔。」 亚巴郎又说：「祢没有赐给我后裔，因此，只有一个家僕来作我的继承人。」有上主的话答覆他说：「这人决不会是你的继承人，而是你亲生的儿子要作你的继承人。」于是上主领他到外面说：「你仰观天空，数一数星星，你能够数清吗？」
随后对他说：「你的后代也要这样多。」 亚巴郎相信了上主，上主就以此算为他的正义。 上主照所许的，眷顾了撒辣；上主对撒辣实践了祂的诺言。撒辣怀了孕，在天主所许的时期，给年老的亚巴郎生了一个儿子。亚巴郎为撒辣给他所生的儿子、起名叫依撒格。
—-上主的圣言
The word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision, saying:
“Fear not, Abram!
I am your shield;
I will make your reward very great.”
But Abram said,
“O Lord GOD, what good will your gifts be,
if I keep on being childless
and have as my heir the steward of my house, Eliezer?”
Abram continued,
“See, you have given me no offspring,
and so one of my servants will be my heir.”
Then the word of the LORD came to him:
“No, that one shall not be your heir;
your own issue shall be your heir.”
The Lord took Abram outside and said,
“Look up at the sky and count the stars, if you can.
Just so,” he added, “shall your descendants be.”
Abram put his faith in the LORD,
who credited it to him as an act of righteousness.
The LORD took note of Sarah as he had said he would;
he did for her as he had promised.
Sarah became pregnant and bore Abraham a son in his old age,
at the set time that God had stated.
Abraham gave the name Isaac to this son of his
whom Sarah bore him.
(亚巴郎、撒辣及依撒格的信德)
恭读致希伯来人书 Heb 11:8, 11-12, 17-19
弟兄们：亚巴郎因为有信德，蒙天主召选时，就听命往他将要承受为产业的地方去了：他出发时，还不知道要到哪里去。撒辣因为有信德，她虽然过了生育的年龄，竟然得到了怀孕生子的能力，因为她相信那应许者是信实的。因此从一个人，而且从一个已经失去生育能力的人，竟然生了子孙，如同天上的星星那么多，又像海岸的沙子，不可胜数。
亚巴郎因为有信德，在受试探的时候，献上了依撒格；亚巴郎原是那承受了恩许的人，竟然献上了自己的独生子：因为天主向他说过:「只有从依撒格生的，才可以称为你的后裔。」
亚巴郎深信天主有使人从死者中復活的能力，因此，天主又把依撤格还给了他：这是一种预像。
—-上主的圣言
Brothers and sisters:
By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place
that he was to receive as an inheritance;
he went out, not knowing where he was to go.
By faith he received power to generate,
even though he was past the normal age
–and Sarah herself was sterile–
for he thought that the one who had made the promise was trustworthy.
So it was that there came forth from one man,
himself as good as dead,
descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky
and as countless as the sands on the seashore.
By faith Abraham, when put to the test, offered up Isaac,
and he who had received the promises was ready to offer
his only son,
of whom it was said,
“Through Isaac descendants shall bear your name.”
He reasoned that God was able to raise even from the dead,
and he received Isaac back as a symbol.
众：阿肋路亚。Alleluia, alleluia.

(孩子渐渐长大，充满智慧)
恭读圣路加福音 LK 2:22-40
【长 式】
若瑟和玛利亚按照梅瑟的法律，到了取洁的日期，便带着孩子耶稣上耶路撒冷去，把祂献给上主， 就如上主的法律上记载的：「凡是头胎的男孩，都应奉献给上主。」他们也依照上主法律的规定，献上祭物：就是一对斑鸠或两只雏鸽。 那时，在耶路撒冷有一个人，名叫西默盎。这人是虔诚的义人，一向期待着以色列的安慰者来到，而且圣神也在他身上。 他曾蒙圣神启示：知道自己在去世以前必将看见上主的受傅者–基督。
他在圣神的感动之下进了圣殿；那时耶稣的父母抱着孩子正走进来，要按着法律的惯例为祂行礼。 西默盎就双手接过祂来，赞美天主说：「上主，现在可照祢的话，放祢的僕人平安去吧！因为我已目睹祢为万民准备好的救主，就是启示列邦的光明，以色列子民的光荣。」
孩子的父母听到关于耶稣所说的这些话，非常惊异。西默盎祝福了他们，并对耶稣的母亲玛利亚说:「听着，这孩子已经被选定， 祂要使以色列中许多人跌倒并兴起，并将成为人反对的目标–你自己的心也将被一把利剑刺透—这样使许多人心中的意念被揭露出来。」 又有一位女先知安纳，是阿协尔支派法努耳的女儿，已经上了年纪。结婚后，和丈夫住了七年，就寡居了，直到八十四岁。 她守斋祈祷，昼夜侍奉天主，没有离开过圣殿。就在那时候，她也前来称谢天主，并向所有期待耶路撒冷得救赎的人，讲论这孩子的事。
耶稣的父母按着上主的法律办完了一切，便返回加里肋亚，到了他们的本镇纳匝肋。孩子渐渐长大，强壮起来，充满智慧，天主的恩宠常在祂身上。

When the days were completed for their purification
according to the law of Moses,
They took him up to Jerusalem
to present him to the Lord,
just as it is written in the law of the Lord,
Every male that opens the womb shall be consecrated to the Lord,
and to offer the sacrifice of
a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons,
in accordance with the dictate in the law of the Lord.
Now there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon.
This man was righteous and devout,
awaiting the consolation of Israel,
and the Holy Spirit was upon him.
It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit
that he should not see death
before he had seen the Christ of the Lord.
He came in the Spirit into the temple;
and when the parents brought in the child Jesus
to perform the custom of the law in regard to him,
He took him into his arms and blessed God, saying:
“Now, Master, you may let your servant go
in peace, according to your word,
for my eyes have seen your salvation,
which you prepared in sight of all the peoples,
a light for revelation to the Gentiles,
and glory for your people Israel.”
The child’s father and mother were amazed at what was said about him;
and Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother,
“Behold, this child is destined
for the fall and rise of many in Israel,
and to be a sign that will be contradicted
—and you yourself a sword will pierce—
so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”
There was also a prophetess, Anna,
the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher.
She was advanced in years,
having lived seven years with her husband after her marriage,
and then as a widow until she was eighty-four.
She never left the temple,
but worshiped night and day with fasting and prayer.
And coming forward at that very time,
she gave thanks to God and spoke about the child
to all who were awaiting the redemption of Jerusalem.
When they had fulfilled all the prescriptions
of the law of the Lord,
they returned to Galilee,
to their own town of Nazareth.
The child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom;
and the favor of God was upon him.

(达味的王权，在主面前永远存在)
恭读撒慕尔纪下 2 Sm 7:1-5, 8b-12, 14a, 16
那时，达味王住在宫中，上主赐他安享太平，不受四周仇敌的侵扰。王对纳堂先知说：「你看，我住在香柏木建造的宫殿里，天主的约柜却在帐幕内。」
纳堂回答说：「你照你心里打算的，去做吧！因为上主与你同在。」但是，当夜上主就对纳堂说：「你去告诉我的僕人达味：上主这样说：你要建筑一座殿宇给我居住吗？
是我拣选你离开牧场，离开牧羊的工作，作我的人民以色列的领袖。你不论到哪里去，我都与你同在，当着你的面消灭你所有的仇敌。我要使你成名，像世上出名的大人物；我要把我的人民以色列安置在一个地方，栽培他们，使他们在那里久住，不再受惊扰，也不再像以前一样，受恶人的欺压：就是自从我为我的人民以色列立了民长以来，那样受欺压。我要赐他们过安宁的日子，不受仇敌骚扰。上主也告诉你：祂要为你建立家室。
你的家室和王权在我面前永远存在，你的王位也永远坚定不移。」 —-上主的圣言
When King David was settled in his palace,
and the LORD had given him rest from his enemies on every side,
he said to Nathan the prophet,
“Here I am living in a house of cedar,
while the ark of God dwells in a tent!”
Nathan answered the king,
“Go, do whatever you have in mind,
for the LORD is with you.”
But that night the LORD spoke to Nathan and said:
“Go, tell my servant David, ‘Thus says the LORD:
Should you build me a house to dwell in?’
“It was I who took you from the pasture
and from the care of the flock
to be commander of my people Israel.
I have been with you wherever you went,
and I have destroyed all your enemies before you.
And I will make you famous like the great ones of the earth.
I will fix a place for my people Israel;
I will plant them so that they may dwell in their place
without further disturbance.
Neither shall the wicked continue to afflict them as they did of old,
since the time I first appointed judges over my people Israel.
I will give you rest from all your enemies.
The LORD also reveals to you
that he will establish a house for you.
And when your time comes and you rest with your ancestors,
I will raise up your heir after you, sprung from your loins,
and I will make his kingdom firm.
I will be a father to him,
and he shall be a son to me.
Your house and your kingdom shall endure forever before me;
your throne shall stand firm forever.”

那时候，天使佳播奉天主差遣，往加里肋亚一个名叫纳匝肋的镇上去，到一位童贞女那里，她已经跟达味家族中的一位名叫若瑟的男子订了婚，童贞女的名字叫玛利亚。天使进去对她说：「万福！充满圣宠的，上主与你同在！你在女人中当受赞颂。」她听了这话，十分惶恐不安，反覆思索这样的问候是什么意思。天使对她说：「玛利亚，不要害怕，因为你在天主跟前得了宠幸。你将怀孕生子，要给祂起名叫耶稣。祂将是伟大的，被称为至高者的儿子，上主天主要把祂祖先达味的御座赐给祂。祂要为王，统治雅格家族，直到永远；祂的王权没有终期。」玛利亚便向天使说：「这事怎么能成就呢？因为我不认识男人。」天使答覆她说：「圣神要降临到你身上，至高者的能力要庇荫你，因此，那要诞生的圣者，将称为天主的儿子。且看，你的亲戚丽莎，素称不生育的，在老年也怀了男胎，现在已经是第六个月了。因为没有一件事是天主做不到的。」玛利亚说：「我是上主的婢女，愿你所说的成就在我身上吧！」天使便离开她去了。

The angel Gabriel was sent from God
to a town of Galilee called Nazareth,
to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph,
of the house of David,
and the virgin’s name was Mary.
And coming to her, he said,
“Hail, full of grace! The Lord is with you.”
But she was greatly troubled at what was said
and pondered what sort of greeting this might be.
Then the angel said to her,
“Do not be afraid, Mary,
for you have found favor with God.
“Behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son,
and you shall name him Jesus.
He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High,
and the Lord God will give him the throne of David his father,
and he will rule over the house of Jacob forever,
and of his kingdom there will be no end.”
But Mary said to the angel,
“How can this be,
since I have no relations with a man?”
And the angel said to her in reply,
“The Holy Spirit will come upon you,
and the power of the Most High will overshadow you.
Therefore the child to be born
will be called holy, the Son of God.
And behold, Elizabeth, your relative,
has also conceived a son in her old age,
and this is the sixth month for her who was called barren;
for nothing will be impossible for God.”
Mary said, “Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord.
May it be done to me according to your word.”
Then the angel departed from her.
(我要因上主而万分喜乐)
恭读依撒意亚先知书 Is 61:1-2A, 10-11
上主的神临到我身上，因为上主给我傅了油，派遣我向贫苦的人传报喜讯，治疗破碎的心灵，向俘虏宣告自由，释放狱中的囚犯，宣布上主施恩的喜年。
我要因上主而万分喜乐，我的心灵要因我的天主而欢跃，因为祂给我穿上救恩的衣服，给我披上义德的外衣，使我有如头戴花冠的新郎，有如佩带珍珠的新娘。就像大地生出幼苗，田园使种子发芽，上主天主也要照样在万民面前，产生正义和赞颂。
—-上主的圣言
The spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, because the LORD has anointed me; he has sent me to bring glad tidings to the poor, to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and release to the prisoners, to announce a year of favor from the LORD and a day of vindication by our God.
I rejoice heartily in the LORD, in my God is the joy of my soul; for he has clothed me with a robe of salvation and wrapped me in a mantle of justice, like a bridegroom adorned with a diadem, like a bride bedecked with her jewels. As the earth brings forth its plants, and a garden makes its growth spring up, so will the Lord GOD make justice and praise spring up before all the nations.
(要使你们整个人：灵魂和肉身，在主来临时，能保持无可指摘)
恭读圣保禄宗徒致得撒洛尼人前书 1 Thes 5:16-24
弟兄们：你们要常常欢乐，不断祈祷，事事感谢：这就是天主为你们这些属于基督耶稣的人所定的旨意。 不要熄灭圣神，不要轻视先知的话；但要考验一切，要保持那美善的，要远避一切邪恶。
愿赐平安的天主，亲自在各方面圣化你们，使你们整个人── 心灵和肉体，在我们的主耶稣基督来临时，能保持无可指摘。召叫你们的那位是信实的，祂必然付诸实行。

Rejoice always. Pray without ceasing. In all circumstances give thanks, for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus. Do not quench the Spirit. Do not despise prophetic utterances. Test everything; retain what is good. Refrain from every kind of evil.
May the God of peace make you perfectly holy and may you entirely, spirit, soul, and body, be preserved blameless for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful, and he will also accomplish it.
众：阿肋路亚。Alleluia, Alleluia!

(有一位在你们中间，你们却不认识祂)
恭读圣若望福音 Jn 1:6-8, 19-28
有一个人，名叫若翰，是由天主派遣来的。他来，是为作证，为给光作证，为使众人藉他而信。他不是那光，只是来为光作证。这是若翰所作的见证：当时，犹太人从耶路撒冷派遣了司祭和肋未人，到他那里问他说：「你是谁？」，他并不否认，坦白的承认说：「我不是默西亚。」他们又问他说：「那么你是谁呢？你是厄里亚吗？」他说：「我不是。」「你是那位先知吗？」他回答说：「不是。」 于是他们问他说：「你究竟是谁呢？好让我们给那派遣我们来的人一个答覆。你说你自己是谁呢？」他说：「我是那在旷野里唿喊者的声音：就是依撒意亚先知所说的『修直上主的道路吧！』那个唿声。」 被派遣来的有些是法利塞人。他们就质问他说：「你既不是默西亚，又不是厄里亚，也不是那位先知，那么，你为什么施洗呢？」若翰答覆他们说：「我用水施洗，但是有一位站在你们中间，是你们所不认识的；祂在我以后来，我就是给祂解鞋带也不配。」这些事发生在约但河对岸的伯达尼，就是若翰施洗的地方。

A man named John was sent from God.
He came for testimony, to testify to the light,
so that all might believe through him.
He was not the light,
but came to testify to the light.
And this is the testimony of John.
When the Jews from Jerusalem sent priests
and Levites to him
to ask him, “Who are you?”
He admitted and did not deny it,
but admitted, “I am not the Christ.”
So they asked him,
“What are you then? Are you Elijah?”
And he said, “I am not.”
“Are you the Prophet?”
He answered, “No.”
So they said to him,
“Who are you, so we can give an answer to those who sent us?
What do you have to say for yourself?”
He said:
“I am the voice of one crying out in the desert,
‘make straight the way of the Lord,’”
as Isaiah the prophet said.”
Some Pharisees were also sent.
They asked him,
“Why then do you baptize
if you are not the Christ or Elijah or the Prophet?”
John answered them,
“I baptize with water;
but there is one among you whom you do not recognize,
the one who is coming after me,
whose sandal strap I am not worthy to untie.”
This happened in Bethany across the Jordan,
where John was baptizing.
(他的衣服洁白如雪)
恭读达尼尔先知书
夜间，达尼尔我，在神视中观看：宝座安置好了，一位万古常存者坐在上面， 他的衣服皎洁如雪，他的头髮白如羊毛，他的宝座好似是火焰，宝座的轮子如同烈火。有一道大河涌出，从他面前流下； 有千万服事他的，有亿兆侍立在他面前的，审判者已坐堂，卷宗已展开。 我仍在夜间的神视中观看： 看见一位相似人子者，乘着天上的云彩而来，走向万古常存者，随卽被引到他面前。他便赐给那似人子者统治权、尊荣和国度，各民族、各邦国及各异语的人民都要侍奉他；他的王权是永远的王权，永存不替；他的国度永不灭亡。

(这来自天上的声音，是我们亲自听见的)
恭读圣伯铎宗徒后书
弟兄们： 我们将我们的主耶稣基督的大能和来临的事，告诉你们，并不是依据虚构的荒诞故事，而是因为我们亲眼见过祂的威荣。祂实在由天主接受了尊敬和光荣，因为那时曾有这样的声音，从显赫的光荣中发出来，向祂説：「这是我的爱子，我所喜悦的。」这来自天上的声音，十我们同祂在那座圣山上的时候，亲自听见的。因此，我们对先知的话更加确信，对这话你们当十分留神，就像留神在暗中发光的灯，直到天亮，晨星在你们的心中昇起的时候。

(祂的面容发光有如太阳)
恭读圣玛窦福音
那时候，耶稣带着伯铎，雅格和他的弟弟若望，悄悄地上了一座高山，在他们面前变了容貌： 衪的面容发光有如太阳，祂的衣服洁白如雪。忽然，梅瑟和厄里亚也显现出来，跟耶稣讲话。于是伯铎对耶稣说 ：「主啊！我们在这里真好！如果祢愿意，我就在这里搭三个帐棚 ：一个为祢，一个为啥梅瑟，一个为厄里亚。」他还在说话的时候，忽然有一片灿烂的云彩笼罩着他们，有声音从云中传出来说：「这是我的爱子，我所喜悦的：你们要听从祂！」三个门徒听了这声音，都俯伏在地，非常害怕。耶稣就走过来，抚摩他们说：「起来吧，不要怕！」他们抬头一看，只看见耶稣，其他的人都不见了。
下山时，耶稣嘱咐他们说：「在人子还没有从死人中復活以前，你们不要把刚纔所看见的事告诉别人。」

耶路撒冷啊！起来发放光明罢！因为你的光明业已来到，上主的荣耀、已经照射在你身上。看哪！黑暗笼罩大地，阴云遮蔽万民；但是上主要照亮你，祂的荣耀要彰显在你身上。万民将趋赴你的光芒，众王将奔向你升起的光辉。你举目向周围观看！人们都已经集合，向你而来。 你的儿子要从远方而来，你的女儿也要像婴儿给背着回来。那时，你看到这一切，必要喜形于色，你的心会兴奋跳动。因为金银从海的那边滚滚而来，万国的财富都流入你的手中。 成群结队的骆驼，米德杨和厄法的独峰驼，齐集在你的境内。他们从舍巴满载黄金和乳香而来，宣扬上主的荣耀。

恭读圣保禄宗徒致厄弗所人书
弟兄们：你们一定知道，为了你们的好处，天主的恩宠所付託给我的职务：祂启示我，使我知道祂的奥秘。以往，天主没有把这奥秘向任何人显示过， 现在祂藉着圣神向祂的圣宗徒和先知启示了；这奥秘的内容是这样：藉着福音，外邦人在基督耶稣内与犹太人同为继承人，同为一体，同为恩许的分享人。

(我们从东方来朝拜君王)
恭读圣玛窦福音
黑落德作王的时候，耶稣诞生在犹大的伯利恆；有几个贤士从东方来到耶路撒冷，询问说：「纔诞生的犹太人的王在那里？我们在东方看见祂的星出现，特地来朝拜祂。」 黑落德王一听这话，就心感不安，耶路撒冷全城的居民也跟着一起不安。他就召集了所有的司祭长和民间的经师，问他们：默西亚应该生在那里。 他们回答说：「在犹大省的伯利恆，因为先知曾这样记载过：『你、犹大地区的伯利恆啊！你在犹大的各市镇中，决不是最小的，因为要有一位领袖从你那里出来，牧养我的子民─以色列。』」 于是黑落德暗地里召见这几位贤士，仔细询问他们，那颗星在甚么时候出现的；然后吩咐他们前往伯利恆，说：「你们去用心寻找那婴儿吧！找到了，就报告给我，好让我也去朝拜祂。」 他们听了国王的吩咐，就走了。那时候，他们在东方看见的那颗星又出现了，在他们前面引路，直到婴儿所在的地方上面，纔停下来。他们看见那颗星，实在喜出望外。走进屋子， 看见了婴儿和祂的母亲玛利亚，就俯伏在地朝拜了祂，然后打开宝盒，拿出黄金、乳香和没药等礼物奉献给祂。他们在梦中得到指示，不可再回到黑落德那里，就从另一条路返回了家乡。
