Reading

The Acts of the Apostles 20: 28-38

20:28	Take care of yourselves and of the entire flock, over which the Holy Spirit has stationed you as Bishops to rule the Church of God, which he has purchased by his own blood.
20:29	I know that after my departure ravenous wolves will enter among you, not sparing the flock.
20:30	And from among yourselves, men will rise up, speaking perverse things in order to entice disciples after them.
20:31	ان جي ڪري, محتاط رھڻ, retaining in memory that throughout three years I did not cease, رات ۽ ڏينهن, with tears, to admonish each and every one of you.
20:32	۽ ھاڻ, I commend you to God and to the Word of his grace. He has the power to build up, and to give an inheritance to all who are sanctified.
20:33	I have coveted neither silver and gold, nor apparel,
20:34	as you yourselves know. For that which was needed by me and by those who are with me, these hands have provided.
20:35	I have revealed all things to you, because by laboring in this way, it is necessary to support the weak and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ ”
20:36	۽ جڏهن هن اهي ڳالهيون ڪيون هيون, گوڏا کوڙڻ, he prayed with all of them.
20:37	Then a great weeping occurred among them all. ۽, falling upon the neck of Paul, they kissed him,
20:38	being grieved most of all over the word which he had said, that they would never see his face again. And they brought him to the ship.

 

Gospel

پاڪ انجيل جان جي مطابق 17: 11-19

17:11	۽ جيتوڻيڪ مان دنيا ۾ نه آهيان, اهي دنيا ۾ آهن, ۽ مان توهان وٽ اچي رهيو آهيان. پيءُ تمام مقدس, انهن کي پنهنجي نالي ۾ محفوظ ڪريو, جن کي تو مون کي ڏنو آهي, ته جيئن اهي هڪ ٿي سگهن, جيتوڻيڪ اسان هڪ آهيون.
17:12	جڏهن ته مان به ساڻن گڏ هوس, مون انهن کي توهان جي نالي ۾ محفوظ ڪيو. مون انهن جي حفاظت ڪئي آهي جن کي تو مون کي ڏنو آهي, ۽ انهن مان هڪ به گم ناهي, سواءِ تباهي جي پٽ جي, ته جيئن ڪتاب پورو ٿئي.
17:13	۽ هاڻي مان توهان وٽ اچي رهيو آهيان. پر مان اهي ڳالهيون دنيا ۾ ڳالهائي رهيو آهيان, ته جيئن اهي پنهنجي اندر ۾ منهنجي خوشي جي پوري پوري ڪن.
17:14	مون کين تنهنجو لفظ ڏنو آهي, ۽ دنيا انهن کان نفرت ڪئي آهي. ڇاڪاڻ ته اهي دنيا جا نه آهن, جيئن مان, پڻ, مان دنيا جو نه آهيان.
17:15	مان دعا نه ڪري رهيو آهيان ته توهان انهن کي دنيا مان ڪڍي ڇڏيو, پر تون انھن کي برائي کان بچائيندين.
17:16	اهي دنيا جا نه آهن, جيئن مان پڻ دنيا جو نه آهيان.
17:17	انھن کي سچائي سان پاڪ ڪريو. تنهنجي ڳالهه سچي آهي.
17:18	جيئن تو مون کي دنيا ۾ موڪليو آهي, مون انهن کي به دنيا ۾ موڪليو آهي.
17:19	۽ اھو انھن لاء آھي جيڪو مان پاڻ کي پاڪ ڪريان ٿو, ته جيئن اهي, پڻ, سچ ۾ پاڪ ٿي سگهي ٿو.
