恭讀聖若望福音 13:16-20

耶穌為門徒洗腳後,說:「我實實在在告訴你們:沒有僕人大過主人的,也沒有奉使的大過派遣他的。你們既知道了這些事,如果實行,便是有福的。我不是說你們全體,我認識我所揀選的;但經上所記載的必須應驗:『吃過我飯的人,也舉腳踢我。』就是現在,事未發生以前,我告訴你們,好叫事發生以後,你們相信我是那一位。我實實在在告訴你們:凡接待我所派遣的,就是接待我;接待我的,就是接待那派遣我來的。」

—上主的話。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 13:16-20

16 Truly, truly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master; nor is he who is sent greater than he who sent him. 17 If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them. 18 I am not speaking of you all; I know whom I have chosen; it is that the scripture may be fulfilled, `He who ate my bread has lifted his heel against me.’ 19 I tell you this now, before it takes place, that when it does take place you may believe that I am he. 20 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who receives any one whom I send receives me; and he who receives me receives him who sent me.”

—The Gospel of the Lord.
