Fifteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

The first reading from
Deuteronomy 30: 10-14

Moses said to the people: “If only you would heed the voice of the LORD, your God, and keep his commandments and statutes that are written in this book of the law, when you return to the LORD, your God, with all your heart and all your soul.”For this command that I enjoin on you today is not too mysterious and remote for you. It is not up in the sky, that you should say, ‘Who will go up in the sky to get it for us and tell us of it, that we may carry it out?’ Nor is it across the sea, that you should say, ‘Who will cross the sea to get it for us and tell us of it, that we may carry it out?’ No, it is something very near to you, already in your mouths and in your hearts; you have only to carry it out.”

The word of the LORD P. Thanks be to God

رِسَالَةُ بُولُسَ الرَّسُولِ إِلَى أَهْلِ كُولُوسِّي

الأصحَاحُ الأَوَّلُ بركاته علي جميعنا آمين

15الَّذِي هُوَ صُورَةُ اللهِ غَيْرِ الْمَنْظُورِ، بِكْرُ كُلِّ خَلِيقَةٍ. 16فَإِنَّهُ فِيهِ خُلِقَ الْكُلُّ: مَا في السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا عَلَى الأَرْضِ، مَا يُرَى وَمَا لاَ يُرَى، سَوَاءٌ كَانَ عُرُوشًا أَمْ سِيَادَاتٍ أَمْ رِيَاسَاتٍ أَمْ سَلاَطِينَ. الْكُلُّ بِهِ وَلَهُ قَدْ خُلِقَ. 17الَّذِي هُوَ قَبْلَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، وَفِيهِ يَقُومُ الْكُلُّ 18وَهُوَ رَأْسُ الْجَسَدِ: الْكَنِيسَةِ. الَّذِي هُوَ الْبَدَاءَةُ، بِكْرٌ مِنَ الأَمْوَاتِ، لِكَيْ يَكُونَ هُوَ مُتَقَدِّمًا فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ. 19لأَنَّهُ فِيهِ سُرَّ أَنْ يَحِلَّ كُلُّ الْمِلْءِ، 20وَأَنْ يُصَالِحَ بِهِ الْكُلَّ لِنَفْسِهِ، عَامِلاً الصُّلْحَ بِدَمِ صَلِيبِهِ، بِوَاسِطَتِهِ، سَوَاءٌ كَانَ: مَا عَلَى الأَرْضِ، أَمْ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ.

نعمة الله الآب تكن مع جميعنا آمين

A reading from the Holy Gospel according to

Luke 10: 25-37 P. Glory to you Lord

There was a scholar of the law who stood up to test him and said, “Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
Jesus said to him, “What is written in the law? How do you read it?” He said in reply, you shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your being, with all your strength, and with your entire mind, and your neighbor as yourself.” He replied to him, “You have answered correctly; do this and you will live.” But because he wished to justify himself, he said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” Jesus replied, “A man fell victim to robbers as he went down from Jerusalem to Jericho. They stripped and beat him and went off leaving him half-dead. A priest happened to be going down that road, but when he saw him, he passed by on the opposite side. Likewise a Levite came to the place, and when he saw him, he passed by on the opposite side. But a Samaritan traveler who came upon him was moved with compassion at the sight. He approached the victim, poured oil and wine over his wounds and bandaged them. Then he lifted him up on his own animal, took him to an inn, and cared for him. The next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper with the instruction, ‘Take care of him. If you spend more than what I have given you, I shall repay you on my way back.’ Which of these three, in your opinion,
was neighbor to the robbers’ victim?” He answered, “The one who treated him with mercy.” Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.” The Gospel of the LORD P. Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ

25وَإِذَا نَامُوسِيٌّ قَامَ يُجَرِّبُهُ قَائِلاً:«يَا مُعَلِّمُ، مَاذَا أَعْمَلُ لأَرِثَ الْحَيَاةَ الأَبَدِيَّةَ؟» 26فَقَالَ لَهُ:«مَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ فِي النَّامُوسِ. كَيْفَ تَقْرَأُ؟» 27فَأَجَابَ وَقَالَ:«تُحِبُّ الرَّبَّ إِلهَكَ مِنْ كُلِّ قَلْبِكَ، وَمِنْ كُلِّ نَفْسِكَ، وَمِنْ كُلِّ قُدْرَتِكَ، وَمِنْ كُلِّ فِكْرِكَ، وَقَرِيبَكَ مِثْلَ نَفْسِكَ». 28فَقَالَ لَهُ:«بِالصَّوَابِ أَجَبْتَ. اِفْعَلْ هذَا فَتَحْيَا». 29وَأَمَّا هُوَ فَإِذْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُبَرِّرَ نَفْسَهُ، قَاَلَ لِيَسُوعَ: «وَمَنْ هُوَ قَرِيبِي؟» 30فَأَجَابَ يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ: «إِنْسَانٌ كَانَ نَازِلاً مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ إِلَى أَرِيحَا، فَوَقَعَ بَيْنَ لُصُوصٍ، فَعَرَّوْهُ وَجَرَّحُوهُ، وَمَضَوْا وَتَرَكُوهُ بَيْنَ حَيٍّ وَمَيْتٍ. 31فَعَرَضَ أَنَّ كَاهِنًا نَزَلَ فِي تِلْكَ الطَّرِيقِ، فَرَآهُ وَجَازَ مُقَابِلَهُ. 32وَكَذلِكَ لاَوِيٌّ أَيْضًا، إِذْ صَارَ عِنْدَ الْمَكَانِ جَاءَ وَنَظَرَ وَجَازَ مُقَابِلَهُ. 33وَلكِنَّ سَامِرِيًّا مُسَافِرًا جَاءَ إِلَيْهِ، وَلَمَّا رَآهُ تَحَنَّنَ، 34فَتَقَدَّمَ وَضَمَدَ جِرَاحَاتِهِ، وَصَبَّ عَلَيْهَا زَيْتًا وَخَمْرًا، وَأَرْكَبَهُ عَلَى دَابَّتِهِ، وَأَتَى بِهِ إِلَى فُنْدُق وَاعْتَنَى بِهِ. 35وَفِي الْغَدِ لَمَّا مَضَى أَخْرَجَ دِينَارَيْنِ وَأَعْطَاهُمَا لِصَاحِبِ الْفُنْدُقِ، وَقَالَ لَهُ: اعْتَنِ بِهِ، وَمَهْمَا أَنْفَقْتَ أَكْثَرَ فَعِنْدَ رُجُوعِي أُوفِيكَ. 36فَأَيَّ هؤُلاَءِ الثَّلاَثَةِ تَرَى صَارَ قَرِيبًا لِلَّذِي وَقَعَ بَيْنَ اللُّصُوصِ؟» 37فَقَالَ: «الَّذِي صَنَعَ مَعَهُ الرَّحْمَةَ». فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «اذْهَبْ أَنْتَ أَيْضًا وَاصْنَعْ هكَذَا

The first reading from

Isaiah 66: 10-14

Thus says the LORD: Rejoice with Jerusalem and be glad because of her, all you who love her; exult, exult with her,
all you who were mourning over her! Oh, that you may suck fully of the milk of her comfort, that you may nurse with delight at her abundant breasts! For thus says the LORD: Lo, I will spread prosperity over Jerusalem like a river, and the wealth of the nations like an overflowing torrent. As nurslings, you shall be carried in her arms, and fondled in her lap; as a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you; in Jerusalem you shall find your comfort. When you see this, your heart shall rejoice and your bodies flourish like the grass; the LORD’s power shall be known to his servants.

The word of the LORD P. Thanks be to God

A reading from the Holy Gospel according to

Luke 10: 1-9 P. Glory to you Lord

At that time the Lord appointed seventy-two others whom he sent ahead of him in pairs to every town and place he intended to visit. He said to them, “The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few; so ask the master of the harvest to send out laborers for his harvest. Go on your way; behold, I am sending you like lambs among wolves.
Carry no money bag, no sack, and no sandals; and greet no one along the way. Into whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace to this household.’ If a peaceful person lives there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you. Stay in the same house and eat and drink what is offered to you, for the laborer deserves his payment. Do not move about from one house to another. Whatever town you enter and they welcome you, eat what is set before you, cure the sick in it and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God is at hand for you.’”..

The Gospel of the LORD P. Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ
