The Letter of Saint Paul to the Philippians 3: 17- 4:1

3:17	Be imitators of me, aħwa, and observe those who are walking similarly, just as you have seen by our example.
3:18	For many persons, about whom I have often told you (and now tell you, weeping,) are walking as enemies of the cross of Christ.
3:19	Their end is destruction; their god is their belly; and their glory is in their shame: for they are immersed in earthly things.
3:20	But our way of life is in heaven. And from heaven, wisq, we await the Savior, Sidna Ġesù Kristu,
3:21	who will transform the body of our lowliness, according to the form of the body of his glory, by means of that power by which he is even able to subject all things to himself.

Philippians 4

4:1	U għalhekk, my most beloved and most desired brothers, my joy and my crown: stand firm in this way, in the Lord, l-aktar għeżież.

Evanġelju

Mattew 16: 1-8

16:1 U Fariżej u Sadduċej resqu lejh biex jittestjawh, u talbuh jurihom sinjal mis-sema.

16:2 Imma hu wieġeb billi qalilhom: “Meta tasal filgħaxija, tgħid int, ‘Se jkun kalm, għax is-sema huwa aħmar,’

16:3 u filgħodu, ‘Illum se jkun hemm maltempata, għax is-sema hu aħmar u dlam.’ Mela mela, taf kif tiġġudika d-dehra tas-sema, imma int ma tistax tkun taf is-sinjali taż-żminijiet?

16:4 Ġenerazzjoni ħażina u adultera tfittex sinjal. U m’għandux jingħatalu sinjal, ħlief is-sinjal tal-profeta Ġona.” U jħalluhom warajhom, telaq.

16:5 U meta d-dixxipli tiegħu marru jaqsmu l-baħar, insew iġibu l-ħobż.

16:6 U qalilhom, “Iqis u oqgħod attent mill-ħmira tal-Fariżej u s-Sadduċej.”

16:7 Imma kienu qed jaħsbu fihom infushom, qal, “Huwa għax ma ġibniex ħobż.”

16:8 Imbagħad Ġesù, jafu dan, qal: “Għaliex tqisu fikom infuskom, O ċkejken fil-fidi, li huwa għax m’għandekx ħobż?
