Prvo branje

 

The Acts of the Apostles 10: 25-26, 34-35, 44-48

10:25 In zgodilo se je to, when Peter had entered, Cornelius went to meet him. And falling before his feet, he reverenced.

10:26 Pa vendar resnično, Peter, lifting him up, rekel: »Vstani, for I also am only a man.”

10:34 Potem, Peter, opening his mouth, rekel: “I have concluded in truth that God is not a respecter of persons.

10:35 But within every nation, whoever fears him and works justice is acceptable to him.

10:44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell over all of those who were listening to the Word.

10:45 And the faithful of the circumcision, who had arrived with Peter, were astonished that the grace of the Holy Spirit was also poured out upon the Gentiles.

10:46 For they heard them speaking in tongues and magnifying God.

10:47 Then Peter responded, “How could anyone prohibit water, so that those who have received the Holy Spirit would not be baptized, just as we also have been?”

10:48 And he ordered them to be baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Then they begged him to remain with them for some days.

 

Drugo branje

The First Letter of Saint John 4: 7-10

4:7 Najbolj ljubljeni, imejmo se radi. Kajti ljubezen je od Boga. In vsak, ki ljubi, je rojen iz Boga in pozna Boga.

4:8 Kdor ne ljubi, ne pozna Boga. Kajti Bog je ljubezen.

4:9 Na ta način se nam je razodela Božja ljubezen: da je Bog poslal svojega edinorojenega Sina na svet, da bi lahko živeli po njem.

4:10 V tem je ljubezen: ne kot da bi ljubili Boga, ampak da nas je prvi ljubil, in tako je poslal svojega Sina kot spravo za naše grehe.

 

Evangelij

The Holy Gospel According to John 15: 9-17

15:9 Kakor je Oče mene ljubil, tako da sem te ljubil. Ostani v moji ljubezni.

15:10 Če se držiš mojih zapovedi, ostal boš v moji ljubezni, kakor sem tudi jaz izpolnjeval zapovedi svojega Očeta in ostajam v njegovi ljubezni.

15:11 Te stvari sem vam govoril, da bo moje veselje v tebi, in vaše veselje se lahko izpolni.

15:12 To je moj predpis: da se ljubita, tako kot sem ljubil tebe.

15:13 Nihče nima večje ljubezni od te: da je dal življenje za svoje prijatelje.

15:14 Vi ste moji prijatelji, če narediš, kar ti naročim.

15:15 Ne bom vas več imenoval služabniki, kajti služabnik ne ve, kaj njegov Gospod dela. Vendar sem vas imenoval prijatelji, kajti vse, kar sem slišal od svojega Očeta, dal sem ti vedeti.

15:16 Niste me izbrali, ampak izbral sem tebe. In jaz sem te imenoval, da boste lahko šli naprej in obrodili sad, in da bo tvoj sad trajal. Potem, kar koli ste prosili Očeta v mojem imenu, dal ti bo.

15:17 To ti zapovedujem: da se ljubita.
