The Acts of the Apostles 16: 1-10

16:1	Then he arrived at Derbe and Lystra. Ed ecco, a certain disciple named Timothy was there, the son of a faithful Jewish woman, his father a Gentile.
16:2	The brothers who were at Lystra and Iconium rendered good testimony to him.
16:3	Paul wanted this man to travel with him, and taking him, he circumcised him, because of the Jews who were in those places. For they all knew that his father was a Gentile.
16:4	And as they were traveling through the cities, they delivered to them the dogmas to be kept, which were decreed by the Apostles and elders who were at Jerusalem.
16:5	And certainly, the Churches were being strengthened in faith and were increasing in number every day.
16:6	Poi, while crossing through Phrygia and the region of Galatia, they were prevented by the Holy Spirit from speaking the Word in Asia.
16:7	But when they had arrived in Mysia, they attempted to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus would not permit them.
16:8	Poi, when they had crossed through Mysia, they descended to Troas.
16:9	And a vision in the night was revealed to Paul of a certain man of Macedonia, standing and pleading with him, e dicendo: “Cross into Macedonia and help us!"
16:10	Poi, after he saw the vision, immediately we sought to set out for Macedonia, having been assured that God had called us to evangelize to them.

Vangelo

The Holy Gospel According to John 15: 18-21

15:18	If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before you.
15:19	If you had been of the world, the world would love what is its own. Eppure veramente, you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world; because of this, the world hates you.
15:20	Remember my saying that I told you: The servant is not greater than his Lord. If they have persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they have kept my word, they will keep yours also.
15:21	But all these things they will do to you because of my name, for they do not know him who sent me.

First Corinthians 15: 1- 8

15:1	E così ti faccio conoscere, fratelli, il Vangelo che vi ho predicato, che hai anche ricevuto, e su cui ti trovi.
15:2	Dal Vangelo, pure, ti stai salvando, se ti attieni alla comprensione che ti ho predicato, per non credere invano.
15:3	Perché ti ho trasmesso, Prima di tutto, quello che ho anche ricevuto: che Cristo è morto per i nostri peccati, secondo le Scritture;
15:4	e che fu sepolto; e che è risuscitato il terzo giorno, secondo le Scritture;
15:5	e che fu visto da Cefa, e poi dalle undici.
15:6	Successivamente fu visto da più di cinquecento fratelli contemporaneamente, molti dei quali rimangono, anche al tempo presente, anche se alcuni si sono addormentati.
15:7	Prossimo, è stato visto da James, poi da tutti gli Apostoli.
15:8	E ultimo di tutti, è stato visto anche da me, come se fossi una persona nata nel momento sbagliato.

John 14: 6- 14

14:6	gli disse Gesù: “Io sono la Via, e la Verità, e la Vita. Nessuno viene al Padre, se non attraverso di me.
14:7	Se mi avessi conosciuto, certo anche voi avreste conosciuto mio Padre. E d'ora in poi, lo conoscerai, e tu l'hai visto».
14:8	gli disse Filippo, "Signore, rivelaci il Padre, e ci basta».
14:9	gli disse Gesù: “Sono stato con te per così tanto tempo, e non mi hai conosciuto? Filippo, chi mi vede, vede anche il Padre. Come puoi dire, ‘Rivelaci il Padre?'
14:10	Non credi che io sono nel Padre e il Padre è in me? Le parole che ti sto dicendo, Non parlo da me stesso. Ma il Padre dimora in me, fa questi lavori.
14:11	Non credi che io sono nel Padre e il Padre è in me?
14:12	O altro, credere a causa di queste stesse opere. Amen, amen, Ti dico, chi crede in me farà anch'egli le opere che io faccio. E cose più grandi di queste farà, perché vado al Padre.
14:13	E qualunque cosa chiederete al Padre nel mio nome, che farò, perché il Padre sia glorificato nel Figlio.
14:14	Se mi chiederai qualcosa a nome mio, che farò.

Atti 15: 7- 21

15:7	And after a great contention had taken place, Peter rose up and said to them: “Noble brothers, you know that, in recent days, God has chosen from among us, by my mouth, Gentiles to hear the word of the Gospel and to believe.
15:8	And God, who knows hearts, offered testimony, by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as to us.
15:9	And he distinguished nothing between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
15:10	Now therefore, why do you tempt God to impose a yoke upon the necks of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we have been able to bear?
15:11	But by the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, we believe in order to be saved, in the same manner also as them.”
15:12	Then the entire multitude was silent. And they were listening to Barnabas and Paul, describing what great signs and wonders God had wrought among the Gentiles through them.
15:13	And after they had been silent, James responded by saying: “Noble brothers, listen to me.
15:14	Simon has explained in what manner God first visited, so as to take from the Gentiles a people to his name.
15:15	And the words of the Prophets are in agreement with this, proprio come è stato scritto:
15:16	‘After these things, I will return, and I will rebuild the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down. And I will rebuild its ruins, and I will raise it up,
15:17	so that the rest of men may seek the Lord, along with all the nations over whom my name has been invoked, says the Lord, who does these things.’
15:18	To the Lord, his own work has been known from eternity.
15:19	A causa di ciò, I judge that those who were converted to God from among the Gentiles are not to be disturbed,
15:20	but instead that we write to them, that they should keep themselves from the defilement of idols, and from fornication, and from whatever has been suffocated, and from blood.
15:21	For Moses, from ancient times, has had in each city those who preach him in the synagogues, where he is read on every Sabbath.”

John 15: 9- 11

15:9 As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you. Abide in my love.

15:10 If you keep my precepts, you shall abide in my love, just as I also have kept my Father’s precepts and I abide in his love.

15:11 These things I have spoken to you, so that my joy may be in you, and your joy may be fulfilled.
