Vespers Gospel
Stand in the fear of God and listen to the Holy Gospel.
A reading from the Gospel according to our teacher Saint Luke the Evangelist.
May His Blessings be with us all.
Luke 22 : 24 - 30
Chapter 22
| 24 | Now there was also a dispute among them, as to which of them should be considered the greatest.
|
| 25 | And He said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called "benefactors.'
|
| 26 | But not so among you; on the contrary, he who is greatest among you, let him be as the younger, and he who governs as he who serves.
|
| 27 | For who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet I am among you as the One who serves.
|
| 28 | "But you are those who have continued with Me in My trials.
|
| 29 | And I bestow upon you a kingdom, just as My Father bestowed one upon Me,
|
| 30 | that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel."
|
And Glory be to God forever.
