Vespers Gospel
Stand in the fear of God and listen to the Holy Gospel.
A reading from the Gospel according to our teacher Saint Matthew the Evangelist.
May His Blessings be with us all.
Matthew 13 : 44 - 52
Chapter 13
| 44 | "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
|
| 45 | "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking beautiful pearls,
|
| 46 | who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it.
|
| 47 | "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet that was cast into the sea and gathered some of every kind,
|
| 48 | which, when it was full, they drew to shore; and they sat down and gathered the good into vessels, but threw the bad away.
|
| 49 | So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come forth, separate the wicked from among the just,
|
| 50 | and cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth."
|
| 51 | Jesus said to them, "Have you understood all these things?" They said to Him, "Yes, Lord."
|
| 52 | Then He said to them, "Therefore every scribe instructed concerning the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out of his treasure things new and old."
|
And Glory be to God forever.
