恭讀聖若望福音 14:23-29

那時候,耶穌對門徒說:「誰愛我,必遵守我的話,我父也必愛他,我們要到他那裡去,並要在他那裡,作我們的居所。那不愛我的,就不遵守我的話。你們所聽到的話,並不是我的,而是派遣我來的父的話。
「我還與你們在一起的時候,給你們講論了這些事;但那護慰者,就是父因我的名,所要派遣來的聖神,他必要教訓你們一切,也要使你們想起,我對你們所說的一切。
「我把平安留給你們,我將我的平安賜給你們;我所賜給你們的,不像世界所賜的一樣。你們心裡不要煩亂,也不要膽怯。你們聽見我給你們說過:我去,但我還要回到你們這裡來。如果你們愛我,就該喜歡我往父那裡去,因為父比我大。現在,在事發生前,我就告訴了你們,為使你們在事發生時,能夠相信。」

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 14:23-29

23 Jesus answered him, “If a man loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. 24 He who does not love me does not keep my words; and the word which you hear is not mine but the Father’s who sent me. 25 “These things I have spoken to you, while I am still with you. 26 But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. 27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. 28 You heard me say to you, `I go away, and I will come to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I go to the Father; for the Father is greater than I. 29 And now I have told you before it takes place, so that when it does take place, you may believe.

—The Gospel of the Lord.
