恭讀聖瑪竇福音 4:12-23
耶穌聽到若翰被監禁以後，就退避到加里肋亞；後來，又離開納匝肋，住在海邊的葛法翁，即住在則步隆和納斐塔里境內。這應驗了依撒意亞先知所說的話：「則步隆與納斐塔里地，通海大路，約但河東，外方人的加里肋亞，那坐在黑暗中的百姓，看見了皓光；那坐在死亡陰影之地的人，已有光明為他們升起。」
從那時起，耶穌開始宣講說：「你們悔改吧！因為天國臨近了。」
耶穌沿加里肋亞海行走時，看見了兩個兄弟：稱為伯多祿的西滿，和他的兄弟安德肋，在海裡撒網；他們原是漁夫。耶穌就對他們說：「來，跟隨我！我要使你們成為漁人的漁夫。」他們立刻捨下網，跟隨了耶穌。
耶穌從那裡再往前行，看見了另外兩個兄弟：載伯德的兒子雅各伯和他的弟弟若望，在船上，同他們的父親載伯德，修理他們的網，就召叫了他們。他們也立刻捨下漁船，及自己的父親，跟隨了耶穌。
耶穌走遍了全加里肋亞，在他們的會堂施教，宣講天國的福音，治好民間各種疾病、各種災殃。

(3rd Sunday in Ordinary Time)
A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 4:12-23
When Jesus heard that John had been arrested, he withdrew to Galilee. He left Nazareth and went to live in Capernaum by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali, that what had been said through Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled: Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, the way to the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles, the people who sit in darkness have seen a great light, on those dwelling in a land overshadowed by death light has arisen. From that time on, Jesus began to preach and say, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
As he was walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter, and his brother Andrew, casting a net into the sea; they were fishermen. He said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.” At once they left their nets and followed him. He walked along from there and saw two other brothers, James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John. They were in a boat, with their father Zebedee, mending their nets. He called them, and immediately they left their boat and their father and followed him. He went around all of Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom, and curing every disease and illness among the people.
