Matins 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 12 : 15 - 23
Chapter 12
15 | But when Jesus knew it, He withdrew from there. And great multitudes followed Him, and He healed them all.
|
16 | Yet He warned them not to make Him known,
|
17 | that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:
|
18 | "Behold! My Servant whom I have chosen, My Beloved in whom My soul is well pleased! I will put My Spirit upon Him, And He will declare justice to the Gentiles.
|
19 | He will not quarrel nor cry out, Nor will anyone hear His voice in the streets.
|
20 | A bruised reed He will not break, And smoking flax He will not quench, Till He sends forth justice to victory;
|
21 | And in His name Gentiles will trust."
|
22 | Then one was brought to Him who was demon-possessed, blind and mute; and He healed him, so that the blind and mute man both spoke and saw.
|
23 | And all the multitudes were amazed and said, "Could this be the Son of David?"
|
And Glory be to God forever.
