First Letter of John 4: 7- 16

4:7 Most beloved, let us love one another. For love is of God. And everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.

4:8 Whoever does not love, does not know God. For God is love.

4:9 The love of God was made apparent to us in this way: that God sent his only-begotten Son into the world, so that we might live through him.

4:10 In this is love: not as if we had loved God, but that he first loved us, and so he sent his Son as a propitiation for our sins.

4:11 Most beloved, if God has so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

4:12 No one has ever seen God. But if we love one another, God abides in us, and his love is perfected in us.

4:13 Á þennan hátt, we know that we abide in him, and he in us: because he has given to us from his Spirit.

4:14 And we have seen, and we testify, that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world.

4:15 Whoever has confessed that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.

4:16 And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love. And he who abides in love, abides in God, and God in him.

Gospel

Lúkas 10: 38-42

10:38 Nú gerðist það, meðan þeir voru á ferð, hann kom inn í borg nokkurn. Og ákveðin kona, heitir Marta, tók á móti honum inn á heimili sitt.
10:39 Og hún átti systur, heitir María, WHO, meðan hann sat við fætur Drottins, var að hlusta á orð hans.
10:40 Nú var Marta stöðugt upptekinn við að þjóna. Og hún stóð kyrr og sagði: „Drottinn, er það ekki áhyggjuefni fyrir þig að systir mín hafi látið mig þjóna ein? Þess vegna, talaðu við hana, svo að hún geti hjálpað mér."
10:41 Og Drottinn svaraði með því að segja við hana: „Marta, Marta, þú ert áhyggjufullur og áhyggjufullur yfir mörgu.
10:42 Og þó er aðeins eitt nauðsynlegt. Mary hefur valið besta skammtinn, og það skal ekki frá henni tekið."
