Ang Libro ni Propeta Amos 8: 4-6, 9-12

8:4	Hear this, you who crush the poor and who make those in need of land to do without.
8:5	You say, “When will the first day of the month be over, so we can sell our wares, and the sabbath, so we can open the grain: in order that we may decrease the measure, and increase the price, and substitute deceitful scales,
8:6	in order that we may possess the destitute with money, and the poor for a pair of shoes, and may sell even the refuse of the grain?”
8:9	And it will be in that day, nagaingon ang Ginoong Dios, that the sun will decline at midday, and I will cause the earth to become dark on the day of light.
8:10	And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your hymns into lamentation. And I will put sackcloth over every one of your backs, and baldness on every head. And I will begin it like the mourning for an only-begotten son, and complete it like a bitter day.
8:11	Tan-awa, the days pass, nag-ingon ang Ginoo, and I will send a famine on the earth: not a famine of bread, nor of thirst for water, but for hearing the word of the Lord.
8:12	And they will move even from sea to sea, and from the North all the way to the East. They will wander around seeking the word of the Lord, and they will not find it.

Ebanghelyo

Ang Balaan nga Ebanghelyo Sumala ni Mateo 9: 9-13

9:9	Ug sa paglakaw ni Jesus gikan didto, iyang nakita, naglingkod sa opisina sa buhis, usa ka tawo nga ginganlag Mateo. Ug siya miingon kaniya, “Sunda ko.” Ug mibangon, misunod siya kaniya.
9:10	Ug nahitabo na, samtang naglingkod siya aron mokaon sa balay, tan-awa, daghang mga maniningil ug buhis ug mga makasasala ang nangabot, ug nanglingkod sila sa pagpangaon uban ni Jesus ug sa iyang mga tinun-an.
9:11	Ug ang mga Pariseo, pagkakita niini, miingon sa iyang mga tinun-an, “Nganong nakigsalo man ang inyong Magtutudlo uban sa mga maniningil ug buhis ug sa mga makasasala??”
9:12	Apan si Jesus, pagkadungog niini, miingon: “Dili kadtong mga himsog ang nanginahanglan ug doktor, apan kadtong adunay mga sakit.
9:13	Busa unya, lakaw ug hibaloi kon unsay kahulogan niini: ‘Kaluoy ang akong gitinguha ug dili sakripisyo.’ Kay wala ako moanhi sa pagtawag sa matarong, kondili mga makasasala.”
