Lettura

The First Letter of Saint Paul to the Corinthians 15: 1-11

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.
15:9 Perché io sono l'ultimo degli Apostoli. Non sono degno di essere chiamato apostolo, perché ho perseguitato la Chiesa di Dio.
15:10 Ma, per grazia di Dio, sono quello che sono. E la sua grazia in me non è stata vuota, poiché ho lavorato più abbondantemente di tutti loro. Eppure non sono io, ma la grazia di Dio dentro di me.
15:11 Per se sono io o loro: così predichiamo, e così hai creduto

Vangelo

Il santo Vangelo secondo Luca 7: 36-50

7:36 Then certain Pharisees petitioned him, so that they might eat with him. And he went into the house of the Pharisee, and he reclined at table.
7:37 Ed ecco, a woman who was in the city, a sinner, found out that he was reclining at table in the house of the Pharisee, so she brought an alabaster container of ointment.
7:38 And standing behind him, beside his feet, she began to wash his feet with tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, and she kissed his feet, and she anointed them with ointment.
7:39 Then the Pharisee, who had invited him, upon seeing this, spoke within himself, detto, “This man, if he were a prophet, would certainly know who and what kind of woman is this, who is touching him: that she is a sinner.”
7:40 And in response, gli disse Gesù, “Simone, I have something to say to you.” So he said, “Speak, Teacher.”
7:41 “A certain creditor had two debtors: one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
7:42 And since they did not have the ability to repay him, he forgave them both. Allora, which of them loves him more?"
7:43 In risposta, Simon said, “I suppose that it is he to whom he forgave the most.” And he said to him, “You have judged correctly.”
7:44 And turning to the woman, he said to Simon: “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house. You gave me no water for my feet. But she has washed my feet with tears, and has wiped them with her hair.
7:45 You gave no kiss to me. But she, from the time that she entered, has not ceased to kiss my feet.
7:46 You did not anoint my head with oil. But she has anointed my feet with ointment.
7:47 A causa di ciò, I tell you: many sins are forgiven her, because she has loved much. But he who is forgiven less, loves less.”
7:48 Then he said to her, “Your sins are forgiven you.”
7:49 And those who sat at table with him began to say within themselves, “Who is this, who even forgives sins?"
7:50 Then he said to the woman: “Your faith has brought you salvation. Go in peace.”
