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 4 : 12 - 17
Chapter 4
12 | Now when Jesus heard that John had been put in prison, He departed to Galilee.
|
13 | And leaving Nazareth, He came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the regions of Zebulun and Naphtali,
|
14 | that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:
|
15 | "The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles:
|
16 | The people who sat in darkness have seen a great light, And upon those who sat in the region and shadow of death Light has dawned."
|
17 | From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."
|
And Glory be to God forever.
