Twenty-ninth Week in Ordinary Time

常年期第二十九周 星期二

 

 

First Reading: ROM 5:12, 15B, 17-19, 20B-21

读经一（如果因一个人的过犯，死亡就作了王；那么，每一个人更要藉着基督在生命中为王了。）

恭读圣保禄宗徒致罗马人书 5:12,15,17-19,20-21

 

Brothers and sisters: Through one man sin entered the world, and through sin, death, and thus death came to all men, inasmuch as all sinned.

弟兄们：就如罪恶藉着一人进入了世界，死亡藉着罪恶也进入了世界；这样死亡就殃及了众人，因为众人都犯了罪：成义也是如此。

 

If by that one person's transgression the many died, how much more did the grace of God and the gracious gift of the one man Jesus Christ overflow for the many.

如果因一人的过犯，众人都死了；那么，天主的恩宠和那因耶稣基督一人的恩宠所施与的恩惠，更要丰富地洋溢到众人身上。

 

For if, by the transgression of the one, death came to reign through that one,

如果因一人的过犯，死亡就因那一人作了王；

 

how much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and the gift of justification come to reign in life through the one Jesus Christ.

那么，那些丰富地蒙受了恩宠和正义恩惠的人，更要藉着耶稣基督一人在生命中为王了。

 

In conclusion, just as through one transgression condemnation came upon all, so, through one righteous act acquittal and life came to all.

这样看来：就如因一人的过犯，众人都被定了罪；同样，也因一人的正义行为，众人也都获得了正义和生命。

 

For just as through the disobedience of one man the many were made sinners, so, through the obedience of the one the many will be made righteous.

正如因一人的悖逆，大众都成了罪人；同样，因一人的服从，大众都成了义人。

 

Where sin increased, grace overflowed all the more, so that, as sin reigned in death, grace also might reign through justification for eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

但是罪恶在那里越多，恩宠在那里也越格外丰富，以致罪恶怎样藉死亡为王，恩宠也怎样藉正义而为王，使人藉着我们的主耶稣基督获得永生。

Gospel Lk 12:35-38

福音（主人到来时，发现醒寤著的人，是有福的。）

恭读圣路加福音 12:35-38

 

Jesus said to his disciples: “Gird your loins and light your lamps and be like servants who await their master's return from a wedding,

那时候，耶稣对他的门徒说：“你们要把腰束起，把灯点着，如同等候自己的主人由婚筵回来，

 

ready to open immediately when he comes and knocks. Blessed are those servants whom the master finds vigilant on his arrival.

为的是主人来到，一敲门，立刻就给他开门。主人来到时，遇见醒寤著的那些仆人，是有福的！

 

Amen, I say to you, he will gird himself, have them recline at table, and proceed to wait on them.

我实在告诉你们：主人要束上腰，请他们坐席，亲自前来伺候他们。

 

And should he come in the second or third watch and find them prepared in this way, blessed are those servants.”

他二更来也罢，三更来也罢，若遇见这样，那些仆人才是有福的！”
