恭讀聖瑪竇福音18:1-5,10

那時候,門徒來到耶穌跟前說:「在天國裏究竟誰是最大的?」耶穌就叫一個小孩來,使他站在他們中間說:「我實在告訴你們:你們若不變成如同小孩一樣,你們決不能進入天國。所以,誰若自謙自卑如同這一個小孩,這人就是天國中最大的。無論誰因我的名字,收留一個這樣的小孩,就是收留我。你們小心,不要輕視這些小子中的一個,因為我告訴你們:他們的天使在天上,常見我在天之父的面。」

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 18:1-5,10

At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”  And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them,  and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.  “Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me; “See that you do not despise one of these little ones; for I tell you that in heaven their angels always behold the face of my Father who is in heaven.

—The Gospel of the Lord.
