神父講道 – 常年期第十週 (週四) (2017年6月15日)

恭讀聖瑪竇福音 5:20-26

那時候,耶穌對他的門徒說:「我告訴你們﹕除非你們的義德超過經師和法利塞人的義德,你們決進不了天國。你們一向聽過給古人說:『不可殺人!』誰若殺了人,應受裁判。我卻對你們說:凡向自己弟兄發怒的,就要受裁判;誰若向自己的弟兄說『傻子』,就要受議會的裁判;誰若說『瘋子』,就要受火獄的罰。所以,你若在祭壇前,要獻你的禮物時,在那裏想起你的弟兄有什麼怨你的事,就把你的禮物留在那裏,留在祭壇前,先去與你的弟兄和好,然後再來獻你的禮物。當你和你的對頭還在路上,趕快與他和解,免得對頭把你交與判官,判官交給差役,把你投在獄裏。我實在告訴你:非到你還了最後的一文,決不能從那裏出來。」

—上主的話。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 5:20-26

Jesus said to his disciples: “I tell you, unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter into the Kingdom of heaven.
“You have heard that it was said to your ancestors, You shall not kill; and whoever kills will be liable to judgment. But I say to you, whoever is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment, and whoever says to his brother, Raqa, will be answerable to the Sanhedrin, and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ will be liable to fiery Gehenna. Therefore, if you bring your gift to the altar, and there recall that your brother has anything against you, leave your gift there at the altar, go first and be reconciled with your brother, and then come and offer your gift. Settle with your opponent quickly while on the way to court with him. Otherwise your opponent will hand you over to the judge, and the judge will hand you over to the guard, and you will be thrown into prison. Amen, I say to you, you will not be released until you have paid the last penny.”

—The Gospel of the Lord.
