From the Epistle of Apostle
Paul to Colossians (1:12-18).
Brethren, give thanks to the Fa-
ther who has qualified us to be
partakers of the inheritance of the
saints in the light. He has deliv-
ered us from the power of dark-
ness and conveyed us into the
kingdom of the Son of His love,
in whom we have redemption
through His blood, the forgiveness
of sins. He is the image of the in-
visible God, the firstborn over all
creation. For by Him all things
were created that are in heaven
and that are on earth, visible and
invisible, whether thrones or do-
minions or principalities or pow-
ers. All things were created
through Him and for Him. And
He is before all things, and in
Him all things consist. And He is
the head of the body, the church,
who is the beginning, the firstborn
from the dead, that in all things
He may have the preeminence.
. . From the Gospel according to -
(1:12-18). St. Luke (6:17-23). (6:17-23).
, - At that time, Jesus came down , -
with apostles and stood on a level , -
,
place with a crowd of His disci- , ,
, - ples and a great multitude of peo-
ple from all Judea and Jerusalem,
and from the seacoast of Tyre and ,
- Sidon, who came to hear Him and -
be healed of their diseases, as well , -
, as those who were tormented with
unclean spirits. And they were ; . -
healed. And the whole multitude ,
, - sought to touch Him, for power
- went out from Him and healed
. ,
them all. Then He lifted up His
, eyes toward His disciples, and
, : -
; , said: “ Blessed are you poor, For
, -
yours is the kingdom of
. -
, - God.Blessed are you who hunger
, . -
: , now, For you shall be filled.
,
Blessed are you who weep now,
, , For you shall laugh. Blessed are . , -
,- you when men hate you, And
, -
when they exclude you, And re-
; - vile you, and cast out your name , ,
as evil, For the Son of Man’s , -
, .
sake. Rejoice in that day and leap .
; - - for joy! For indeed your re- ,
ward is great in heaven, For in
, ,
like manner their fathers did to .
. the prophets. .

From the Epistle of Apostle
Paul to Corinthians
(2 Cor. 4:6-15).
Brethren, the God who com-
manded light to shine out of dark-
ness, has shone in our hearts to
give the light of the knowledge of
the glory of God in the face of Je-
sus Christ. But we have this treas-
ure in earthen vessels, that the ex-
cellence of the power may be of
God and not of us. We are hard-
pressed on every side, yet not
crushed; we are perplexed, but not
in despair; persecuted, but not for-
saken; struck down, but not de-
stroyed — always carrying about
in the body the dying of the Lord
Jesus, that the life of Jesus also
may be manifested in our body.
For we who live are always deliv-
ered to death for Jesus’ sake, that
the life of Jesus also may be
manifested in our mortal flesh. So
then death is working in us, but
life in you. And since we have
the same spirit of faith, according
to what is written, “I believed
and therefore I spoke,” we also
believe and therefore speak,
knowing that He who raised
up the Lord Jesus will also
. . raise us up with Jesus, and will
present us with you. For all things .
(2 . 4:6-15). are for your sakes, that grace, ,
, , having spread through the many, -
, - may cause thanksgiving to
abound to the glory of God. .
,
- From the Gospel according to -
. - St. Luke (17:12-19). (17:12-19).
At that time, as Jesus entered a , -
, certain village, there met Him ten ,
, men who were lepers, who stood
-
. - afar off. And they lifted up their
, -
, ; voices and said, “Jesus, Master,
-
, have mercy on us!” So when He
saw them, He said to them, “Go, : !
; ,
; , show yourselves to the priests.” . , :
And so it was that as they went, , -
.
they were cleansed. And one of . , -
,
them, when he saw that he was
- . , ,
healed, returned, and with a loud
. - , ,
voice glorified God, and fell
down on his face at His feet, giv- ,
, , ;
ing Him thanks. And he was a Sa-
maritan. So Jesus answered and .
, said, “Were there not ten
: -
, cleansed? But where are the nine? ? ?
. , , Were there not any found who
: returned to give glory to God ex-
, - cept this foreigner?” And He said , -
, , , to him, “Arise, go your way. Your ? : , ;
faith has made you well.” .
