The Book of the Prophet Jeremiah 15: 10, 16-21

15:10	“O my mother, woe to me! Why did you conceive me, a man of strife, a man of discord to all the earth? I have not lent money at interest, nor has anyone lent money at interest to me. Yet everyone is cursing me.”
15:16	I discovered your words and I consumed them. And your word became to me as the gladness and joy of my heart. For your name has been invoked over me, O Lord, Tuhan semesta alam.
15:17	I did not sit in the company of mockers, nor did I glorify myself before the presence of your hand. I sat alone, because you filled me with threats.
15:18	Why has my sorrow become never-ending, and why has my wound become so dire that it refuses to be cured? It has become for me like the deception of untrustworthy waters.”
15:19	Karena ini, demikianlah firman Tuhan: “If you will be converted, I will convert you. And you will stand before my face. And you will separate what is precious from what is vile. You will be my mouthpiece. They will be converted to you, but you will not be converted to them.
15:20	And I will present you to this people as a strong wall of brass. And they will fight against you, dan mereka tidak akan menang. Karena aku bersamamu, so as to save you and to rescue you, kata Tuhan.
15:21	And I will free you from hand of those who are most wicked, and I will redeem you from the hand of the powerful.”

Injil

The Holy Gospel to Matthew 13: 44-46

13:44	Kerajaan surga itu seperti harta karun yang tersembunyi di ladang. Ketika seorang pria menemukannya, dia menyembunyikannya, Dan, karena kegembiraannya, dia pergi dan menjual semua yang dia miliki, dan dia membeli ladang itu.
13:45	Lagi, kerajaan surga itu seperti seorang saudagar yang mencari mutiara yang baik.
13:46	Setelah menemukan satu mutiara yang sangat berharga, dia pergi dan menjual semua yang dia miliki, dan dia membelinya.
