Epistle Reading St. Paul's Letter to the Philippians 1:8-14 | رسالة بولس الى اهل فِيلِبِّي 1: 8-14 |
Brethren, God is my witness, how I yearn for you all with the affection of Christ Jesus. And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment, so that you may approve what is excellent, and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ, filled with the fruits of righteousness which come through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God. I want you to know, brethren, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel, so that it has become known throughout the whole praetorian guard and to all the rest that my imprisonment is for Christ; and most of the brethren have been made confident in the Lord because of my imprisonment, and are much more bold to speak the word of God without fear. | يَُّا إِخْوَة، إِنَّ اللهَ شَاهِدٌ لِي كَيْفَ أَشْتَاقُ إِلَى جَمِيعِكُمْ فِي أَحْشَاءِ يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ. وَهَذَا أُصَلِّيهِ: أَنْ تَزْدَادَ مَحَبَّتُكُمْ أَيْضاً أَكْثَرَ فَأَكْثَرَ فِي الْمَعْرِفَةِ وَفِي كُلِّ فَهْمٍ، حَتَّى تُمَيِّزُوا الأُمُورَ الْمُتَخَالِفَةَ، لِكَيْ تَكُونُوا مُخْلِصِينَ وَبِلاَ عَثْرَةٍ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْمَسِيحِ، مَمْلُوئِينَ مِنْ ثَمَرِ الْبِرِّ الَّذِي بِيَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ لِمَجْدِ اللهِ وَحَمْدِهِ.ثُمَّ أُرِيدُ أَنْ تَعْلَمُوا أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ أَنَّ أُمُورِي قَدْ آلَتْ أَكْثَرَ إِلَى تَقَدُّمِ الإِنْجِيلِ، حَتَّى إِنَّ وُثُقِي صَارَتْ ظَاهِرَةً فِي الْمَسِيحِ فِي كُلِّ دَارِ الْوِلاَيَةِ وَفِي بَاقِي الأَمَاكِنِ أَجْمَعَ. 14وَأَكْثَرُ الإِخْوَةِ، وَهُمْ وَاثِقُونَ فِي الرَّبِّ بِوُثُقِي، يَجْتَرِئُونَ أَكْثَرَ عَلَى التَّكَلُّمِ بِالْكَلِمَةِ بِلاَ خَوْفٍ. |
Gospel Reading Luke 11:34-41 | لوقا 11: 34-41 |
The Lord said, "Your eye is the lamp of your body; when your eye is sound, your whole body is full of light; but when it is not sound, your body is full of darkness. Therefore be careful lest the light in you be darkness. If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly bright, as when a lamp with its rays gives you light." While he was speaking, a Pharisee asked him to dine with him; so he went in and sat at table. The Pharisee was astonished to see that he did not first wash before dinner. And the Lord said to him, "Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the dish, but inside you are full of extortion and wickedness. You fools! Did not he who made the outside make the inside also? But give for alms those things which are within and behold, everything is clean for you." | 34 قال الرب: سِرَاجُ الْجَسَدِ هُوَ الْعَيْنُ ، فَمَتَى كَانَتْ عَيْنُكَ بَسِيطَةً فَجَسَدُكَ كُلُّهُ يَكُونُ نَيِّراً ،وَمَتَى كَانَتْ شِرِّيرَةً فَجَسَدُكَ يَكُونُ مُظْلِماً. 35اُنْظُرْ إِذاً لِئَلاَّ يَكُونَ النُّورُ الَّذِي فِيكَ ظُلْمَةً. 36فَإِنْ كَانَ جَسَدُكَ كُلُّهُ نَيِّراً لَيْسَ فِيهِ جُزْءٌ مُظْلِمٌ ، يَكُونُ نَيِّراً كُلُّهُ ، كَمَا حِينَمَا يُضِيءُ لَكَ السِّرَاجُ بِلَمَعَانِهِ. 37وَفِيمَا هُوَ يَتَكَلَّمُ سَأَلَهُ فَرِّيسِيٌّ أَنْ يَتَغَدَّى عِنْدَهُ ، فَدَخَلَ وَاتَّكَأَ. 38وَأَمَّا الْفَرِّيسِيُّ فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ تَعَجَّبَ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَغْتَسِلْ أَوَّلاً قَبْلَ الْغَدَاءِ. 39فَقَالَ لَهُ الرَّبُّ:أَنْتُمُ الآنَ أَيُّهَا الْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ تُنَقُّونَ خَارِجَ الْكَأْسِ وَالْقَصْعَةِ ، وَأَمَّا بَاطِنُكُمْ فَمَمْلُوءٌ اخْتِطَافاً وَخُبْثاً. 40يَا أَغْبِيَاءُ ، أَلَيْسَ الَّذِي صَنَعَ الْخَارِجَ صَنَعَ الدَّاخِلَ أَيْضاً؟ 41بَلْ أَعْطُوا مَا عِنْدَكُمْ صَدَقَةً ، فَهُوَذَا كُلُّ شَيْءٍ يَكُونُ نَقِيّاً لَكُمْ.
