恭讀聖瑪竇福音 18: 12-14

那時候,耶穌對他的門徒說:「你們以爲如何?如果一個人有一百隻羊,其中一隻迷失了路,他豈不把那九十九隻羊留在山上,而去尋找那隻迷失了路的嗎?如果他幸運找著了,我實在告訴你們:他爲這一隻,比為那九十九隻沒有迷路的,更覺歡喜;同樣,這些小子中的一個喪失,決不是你們在天之父的意願。」

—上主的話。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 18:12-14

12 What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them has gone astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go in search of the one that went astray? 13 And if he finds it, truly, I say to you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine that never went astray. 14 So it is not the will of my Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.

—The Gospel of the Lord.
