恭讀聖路加福音 17:5-10

那時候,宗徒向主說:「請增加我們的信德吧!」
主說:「如果你們有信德,像芥子那樣大,即使你們給這棵桑樹說:你連根拔出,移植到海中去!它也會服從你們。
「你們中間,誰有僕人耕田或放羊,從田裡回來,即給他說:你快過來,坐下吃飯吧!而不對他說:給我預備晚飯,束上腰,伺候我,等我吃喝完了,以後你才吃喝?僕人做了吩咐的事,主人豈要向他道謝?
「你們也是這樣,既做完吩咐你們的一切,仍然要說:我們是無用的僕人,我們不過做了我們應做的事。」

—上主的話。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 17:5-10

5 The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!” 6 And the Lord said,”If you had faith as a grain of mustard seed, you could say to this sycamine tree, `Be rooted up, and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you. 7 “Will any one of you, who has a servant plowing or keeping sheep, say to him when he has come in from the field, `Come at once and sit down at table’? 8 Will he not rather say to him, `Prepare supper for me, and gird yourself and serve me, till I eat and drink; and afterward you shall eat and drink’? 9 Does he thank the servant because he did what was commanded? 10 So you also, when you have done all that is commanded you, say, `We are unworthy servants; we have only done what was our duty.'”

—The Gospel of the Lord.
