The First Letter of Saint Peter 1: 3-9

1:3	Palaimintas Dievas ir mūsų Viešpaties Jėzaus Kristaus Tėvas, kuris savo dideliu gailestingumu mus atkūrė gyva viltimi, per Jėzaus Kristaus prisikėlimą iš numirusių:
1:4	į negendantį, nesuteptą ir neblėstantį palikimą, kuri tau skirta danguje.
1:5	Dievo galia, per tikėjimą esi saugomas išgelbėjimui, kuris pasiruošęs apsireikšti paskutiniame amžiuje.
1:6	Šiame, turėtum džiaugtis, jei dabar, trumpam laikui, būtina nuliūdinti įvairiais išbandymais,
1:7	kad jūsų tikėjimo išbandymas, kuris daug brangesnis už ugnies išbandytą auksą, Jėzaus Kristaus apreiškimas gali būti giriamas, šlovė ir garbė.
1:8	Nes nors tu jo nematei, tu myli jį. Jame taip pat, nors tu jo nematai, tu dabar tiki. Ir tikint, džiaugsitės neapsakomu ir didingu džiaugsmu,
1:9	grįžta su savo tikėjimo tikslu, sielų išganymas.

Gospel

The Holy Gospel According to Mark 10: 17-27

10:17	And when he had departed on the way, a certain one, running up and kneeling before him, asked him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do, so that I may secure eternal life?“
10:18	But Jesus said to him, “Why call me good? No one is good except the one God.
10:19	You know the precepts: “Do not commit adultery. Do not kill. Do not steal. Do not speak false testimony. Do not deceive. Honor your father and mother.”
10:20	But in response, he said to him, “Teacher, all these I have observed from my youth.”
10:21	Then Jesus, gazing at him, loved him, ir jis jam pasakė: “One thing is lacking to you. Go, sell whatever you have, and give to the poor, and then you will have treasure in heaven. And come, follow me.”
10:22	But he went away grieving, having been greatly saddened by the word. For he had many possessions.
10:23	And Jesus, looking around, said to his disciples, “How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into the kingdom of God!“
10:24	And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus, answering again, pasakė jiems: “Little sons, how difficult it is for those who trust in money to enter into the kingdom of God!
10:25	It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for the rich to enter into the kingdom of God.”
10:26	And they wondered even more, saying among themselves, “Who, tada, can be saved?“
10:27	And Jesus, gazing at them, sakė: “With men it is impossible; but not with God. For with God all things are possible.”
