The Book of the Prophet Ezekiel 17: 22-24

17:22	Thus says the Lord God: “I myself will take from the kernel of the exalted cedar, and I will establish it. I will tear off a tender twig from the top of its branches, and I will plant it on a mountain, lofty and exalted.
17:23	On the sublime mountains of Israel, I will plant it. And it shall spring forth in buds and bear fruit, and it shall be a great cedar. And all the birds will live under it, and every bird will make its nest under the shadow of its branches.
17:24	And all the trees of the regions will know that I, the Lord, have brought low the sublime tree, and have exalted the lowly tree, and have dried up the green tree, and have caused the dry tree to flourish. I, the Lord, have spoken and acted.”

The Second Letter of of Saint Paul to the Corinthians 5: 6-10

5:6	Затоа, ние сме секогаш уверени, знаејќи го тоа, додека сме во телото, ние сме на аџилак во Господа.
5:7	Зашто ние одиме по верата, а не по видување.
5:8	Значи ние сме уверени, и имаме добра волја да бидеме на аџилак во телото, за да биде присутен на Господа.
5:9	И така се бориме, без разлика дали е отсутен или присутен, да му угоди.
5:10	Зашто потребно е да се појавиме пред Христовиот суд, за секој да ги прими правилните работи на телото, според неговото однесување, дали било добро или зло.

Светото Евангелие според Марко 4: 26-34

4:26	И рече тој: “The kingdom of God is like this: it is as if a man were to cast seed on the land.
4:27	And he sleeps and he arises, night and day. And the seed germinates and grows, though he does not know it.
4:28	For the earth bears fruit readily: first the plant, then the ear, next the full grain in the ear.
4:29	And when the fruit has been produced, immediately he sends out the sickle, because the harvest has arrived.”
4:30	И рече тој: “To what should we compare the kingdom of God? Or to what parable should we compare it?
4:31	It is like a grain of mustard seed which, when it has been sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds which are in the earth.
4:32	And when it is sown, it grows up and becomes greater than all the plants, and it produces great branches, so much so that the birds of the air are able to live under its shadow.”
4:33	And with many such parables he spoke the word to them, as much as they were able to hear.
4:34	But he did not speak to them without a parable. Yet separately, he explained all things to his disciples.
