神父講道 – 常年期第七週 (週四) (2019年2月28日)

恭讀聖馬爾谷福音 9:41-50

那時,耶穌對他的門徒們說:「誰若因你們屬於基督,而給你們一杯水喝,我實在告訴你們:他決不會失掉他的賞報。誰若使這些信者中的一個小子跌倒,倒不如拿一塊驢拉的磨石,套住他的脖子上,投在海裏,為他更好。
「倘若你的手使你跌倒,砍掉它!你殘廢進入生命,比有兩隻手而往地獄裏,到那不滅的火裏去更好。倘若你的腳使你跌倒,砍掉它!你瘸腿進入生命,比有雙腳投入地獄裏更好。倘若你的眼使你跌倒,剜出它來!你一隻眼進入天國,比有兩隻眼被投入地獄裏更好,那裏的蟲子不死,火也不滅。因為所有的人都要用火醃起來。鹽是好的;但鹽若成了不鹹的,你們可用什麼去調和它?在你們中間當有鹽,又該彼此和平相處。」

—上主的話。

(7th Week in Ordinary Time – Thursday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark 9:41-50

Jesus said to his disciples: “Anyone who gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ, amen, I say to you, will surely not lose his reward.
“Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were put around his neck and he were thrown into the sea. If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed than with two hands to go into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire. And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life crippled than with two feet to be thrown into Gehenna. And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. Better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into Gehenna, where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.
“Everyone will be salted with fire. Salt is good, but if salt becomes insipid, with what will you restore its flavor? Keep salt in yourselves and you will have peace with one another.”

—The Gospel of the Lord.
