Qari

The First Letter of Saint Peter 1: 3-9

1:3	Imbierek Alla u Missier Sidna Ġesù Kristu, who according to his great mercy has regenerated us into a living hope, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead:
1:4	unto an incorruptible and undefiled and unfading inheritance, which is reserved for you in heaven.
1:5	By the power of God, you are guarded through faith for a salvation which is ready to be revealed in the end time.
1:6	In this, you should exult, if now, for a brief time, it is necessary to be made sorrowful by various trials,
1:7	so that the testing of your faith, which is much more precious than gold tested by fire, may be found in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
1:8	For though you have not seen him, you love him. In him also, though you do not see him, you now believe. And in believing, you shall exult with an inexpressible and glorious joy,
1:9	returning with the goal of your faith, the salvation of souls.

Evanġelju

L-Evanġelju Qaddis Skond Mark 10: 17-27

10:17	U meta kien telaq fit-triq, ċerta waħda, tiġri u tinżel quddiemu, staqsieh, “Għalliem Tajjeb, x'għandi nagħmel, sabiex nassigura l-ħajja ta’ dejjem?”
10:18	Imma Ġesù qallu, “Għaliex sejjaħli tajjeb? Ħadd mhu tajjeb ħlief Alla wieħed.
10:19	Inti taf il-preċetti: “Tagħmlux adulterju. Toqtolx. Tisraqx. Tkellimx xhieda falza. Tqarraqx. Onora lil missierek u lil ommok.”
10:20	Iżda bi tweġiba, qallu, “Għalliem, dawn kollha osservajt sa minn żgħożiti.”
10:21	Imbagħad Ġesù, iħares lejh, ħabbtu, u qallu: “Ħaġa waħda hija nieqsa għalik. Mur, ibigħ dak kollu li għandek, u agħti lill-foqra, u allura jkollok teżor fis-sema. U ejja, imxi warajja."
10:22	Imma mar imnikket, wara li ddejjaq bil-kbir bil-kelma. Għax kellu ħafna ġid.
10:23	U Ġesù, tħares madwar, qal lid-dixxipli tiegħu, “Kemm hu diffiċli għal dawk li għandhom l-għana li jidħlu fis-saltna t’Alla!”
10:24	U d-dixxipli baqgħu mistagħġbin bi kliemu. Imma Ġesù, wieġeb mill-ġdid, qalilhom: “Ulied żgħar, kemm hu diffiċli għal min jafda fil-flus biex jidħol fis-saltna ta’ Alla!
10:25	Huwa aktar faċli li ġemel jgħaddi minn għajn ta' labra, milli biex l-għonja jidħlu fis-saltna ta’ Alla.”
10:26	U staqsew saħansitra aktar, jgħidu bejniethom, “Min, imbagħad, jistgħu jiġu salvati?”
10:27	U Ġesù, iħares lejhom, qal: “Bl-irġiel huwa impossibbli; imma mhux ma’ Alla. Għax għal Alla kollox hu possibbli.”
