恭讀聖路加福音 7:31-35

耶穌說:「我可把這一代的人比作什麼呢?他們相似什麼人呢?他們相似坐在街上的兒童,彼此呼喚說:我們給你們吹笛,你們卻不跳舞;我們唱哀歌,你們卻不悲哭。因為洗者若翰來了,他不吃餅,也不喝酒。你們便說:他附了魔。人子來了,也吃也喝,你們又說:這是個貪吃嗜酒的人,是稅史和罪人的朋友。但一切智慧之子,必彰顯智慧的正義。」

—上主的話。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 7:31-35

31 “To what then shall I compare the men of this generation, and what are they like? 32 They are like children sitting in the market place and calling to one another, `We piped to you, and you did not dance; we wailed, and you did not weep.’ 33 For John the Baptist has come eating no bread and drinking no wine; and you say, `He has a demon.’ 34 The Son of man has come eating and drinking; and you say, `Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ 35 Yet wisdom is justified by all her children.”
—The Gospel of the Lord.
