ΑΝΑΓΝΩΣΗ

The Letter of Saint Paul to the Galatians 2: 1-2, 7-14

1:1	Παύλος, an Apostle, not from men and not through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead,
1:2	and all the brothers who are with me: to the churches of Galatia.
1:7	For there is no other, except that there are some persons who disturb you and who want to overturn the Gospel of Christ.
1:8	But if anyone, even we ourselves or an Angel from Heaven, were to preach to you a gospel other than the one that we have preached to you, let him be anathema.
1:9	Just as we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone has preached a gospel to you, other than that which you have received, let him be anathema.
1:10	For am I now persuading men, or God? Ή, am I seeking to please men? If I still were pleasing men, then I would not be a servant of Christ.
1:11	For I would have you understand, αδερφια, that the Gospel which has been preached by me is not according to man.
1:12	And I did not receive it from man, nor did I learn it, except through the revelation of Jesus Christ.
1:13	For you have heard of my former behavior within Judaism: ότι, beyond measure, I persecuted the Church of God and fought against Her.
1:14	And I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my equals among my own kind, having proven to be more abundant in zeal toward the traditions of my fathers.

Ευαγγέλιο

The Holy Gospel According to Luke 11: 1-4

11:1	Και έγινε αυτό, ενώ βρισκόταν σε ένα ορισμένο μέρος και προσευχόταν, όταν σταμάτησε, του είπε ένας από τους μαθητές του, "Αρχοντας, μάθε μας να προσευχόμαστε, όπως δίδαξε και ο Ιωάννης στους μαθητές του».
11:2	Και τους είπε: «Όταν προσεύχεσαι, λένε: Πατέρας, ας είναι το όνομά σου άγιο. Είθε το βασίλειό σου να έρθει.
11:3	Δώσε μας σήμερα το ψωμί μας.
11:4	Και συγχώρεσέ μας τις αμαρτίες μας, αφού συγχωρούμε και όλους όσους μας χρωστάνε. Και μη μας οδηγήσεις σε πειρασμό».
