| Epistle Reading St. Paul's First Letter to Timothy 6:11-16 | رسالة بولس الاولى الى تيموثاوس 6: 11-16 |
Timothy, my son, aim at righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, gentleness. Fight the good fight of the faith; take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. In the presence of God who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus who in his testimony before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, I charge you to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ; and this will be made manifest at the proper time by the blessed and only Sovereign, and King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone has immortality and dwells in unapproachable light, whom no man has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen. | يَا وَلَدي تِيمُوثَاوُس، اتْبَعِ الْبِرَّ وَالتَّقْوَى وَالإِيمَانَ وَالْمَحَبَّةَ وَالصَّبْرَ وَالْوَدَاعَةَ. جَاهِدْ جِهَادَ الإِيمَانِ الْحَسَنَ، وَأَمْسِكْ بِالْحَيَاةِ الأَبَدِيَّةِ الَّتِي إِلَيْهَا دُعِيتَ أَيْضاً، وَاعْتَرَفْتَ الاِعْتِرَافَ الْحَسَنَ أَمَامَ شُهُودٍ كَثِيرِينَ. أُوصِيكَ أَمَامَ اللهِ الَّذِي يُحْيِي الْكُلَّ وَالْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ الَّذِي شَهِدَ لَدَى بِيلاَطُسَ الْبُنْطِيِّ بِالاِعْتِرَافِ الْحَسَنِ: أَنْ تَحْفَظَ الْوَصِيَّةَ بِلاَ دَنَسٍ وَلاَ لَوْمٍ إِلَى ظُهُورِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ، الَّذِي سَيُبَيِّنُهُ فِي أَوْقَاتِهِ الْمُبَارَكُ الْعَزِيزُ الْوَحِيدُ، مَلِكُ الْمُلُوكِ وَرَبُّ الأَرْبَابِ، الَّذِي وَحْدَهُ لَهُ عَدَمُ الْمَوْتِ، سَاكِناً فِي نُورٍ لاَ يُدْنَى مِنْهُ، الَّذِي لَمْ يَرَهُ أَحَدٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَلاَ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يَرَاهُ، الَّذِي لَهُ الْكَرَامَةُ وَالْقُدْرَةُ الأَبَدِيَّةُ. آمِينَ. |
| Gospel Reading Luke 20:46-47; 21:1-4 | لوقا 20: 46-47، 21: 1-4 |
The Lord said to his disciples, "Beware of the scribes, who like to go about in long robes, and love salutations in the market places and the best seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at feasts, who devour widows' houses and for a pretense make long prayers. They will receive the greater condemnation." He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury; and he saw a poor widow put in two copper coins. And he said, "Truly, I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all of them; for they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all the living that she had." Having said this, he proclaimed, "He who has ears let him hear." | 46((قال الرب لتلاميذه احْذَرُوا مِنَ الْكَتَبَةِ الَّذِينَ يَرْغَبُونَ الْمَشْيَ بِالطَّيَالِسَةِ ، وَيُحِبُّونَ التَّحِيَّاتِ فِي الأَسْوَاقِ ، وَالْمَجَالِسَ الأُولَى فِي الْمَجَامِعِ ، وَالْمُتَّكَآتِ الأُولَى فِي الْوَلاَئِمِ. 47اَلَّذِينَ يَأْكُلُونَ بُيُوتَ الأَرَامِلِ ، وَلِعِلَّةٍ يُطِيلُونَ الصَّلَوَاتِ. هَؤُلاَءِ يَأْخُذُونَ دَيْنُونَةً أَعْظَمَ!)). 1وَتَطَلَّعَ فَرَأَى الأَغْنِيَاءَ يُلْقُونَ قَرَابِينَهُمْ فِي الْخِزَانَةِ، 2وَرَأَى أَيْضاً أَرْمَلَةً مِسْكِينَةً أَلْقَتْ هُنَاكَ فَلْسَيْنِ. 3فَقَالَ: ((بِالْحَقِّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ : إِنَّ هَذِهِ الأَرْمَلَةَ الْفَقِيرَةَ أَلْقَتْ أَكْثَرَ مِنَ الْجَمِيعِ 4لأَنَّ هَؤُلاَءِ مِنْ فَضْلَتِهِمْ أَلْقَوْا فِي قَرَابِينِ اللهِ ، وَأَمَّا هَذِهِ فَمِنْ إِعْوَازِهَا ، أَلْقَتْ كُلَّ الْمَعِيشَةِ الَّتِي لَهَا ولما قال هذا نادى من له أذنان للسمع فليسمع )).
