Reading

The Letter of Saint Paul to the Ephesians 2: 12-22

2:12	and that you were, in that time, without Christ, being foreign to the way of life of Israel, being visitors to the testament, having no hope of the promise, and being without God in this world.
2:13	でも今, in Christ Jesus, あなた, who were in times past far away, have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
2:14	For he is our peace. He made the two into one, by dissolving the intermediate wall of separation, of opposition, by his flesh,
2:15	emptying the law of commandments by decree, so that he might join these two, in himself, into one new man, making peace
2:16	and reconciling both to God, in one body, through the cross, destroying this opposition in himself.
2:17	And upon arriving, he evangelized peace to you who were far away, and peace to those who were near.
2:18	For by him, we both have access, 一つの御霊の中で, to the Father.
2:19	今, したがって, you are no longer visitors and new arrivals. その代わり, you are citizens among the saints in the household of God,
2:20	having been built upon the foundation of the Apostles and of the Prophets, with Jesus Christ himself as the preeminent cornerstone.
2:21	彼の中で, all that has been built is framed together, rising up into a holy temple in the Lord.
2:22	彼の中で, you also have been built together into a habitation of God in the Spirit.

Gospel

The Holy Gospel According to Luke 12: 35-38

12:35	腰を締めましょう, そしてあなたの手の中でランプを灯しましょう.
12:36	そしてあなたたちも主を待ち望む人々のようになりなさい, 彼が結婚式からいつ帰ってくるのか; となることによって, 彼が到着してノックしたとき, 彼らはすぐに彼に心を開くかもしれない.
12:37	主が与えてくださる僕たちは幸いです, 彼が戻ってきたら, 警戒していることが分かるだろう. アーメン、あなたに言います, 彼は帯を締めて彼らに座って食事をさせるだろう, 一方彼は, 続けて, 彼らに奉仕するだろう.
12:38	そして彼が2回目の時計で戻ってくるとしたら, または 3 番目の時計の場合, そしてもし彼が彼らがそうだと思うなら: それでは、それらの僕たちは祝福されています.
