إنجيل القدّيس لوقا .6-1:3
في السَّنَةِ الخَامِسَةَ عَشْرَةَ مِنْ حُكْمِ طِيبَاريُوسَ قَيْصَر، يَوْمَ كانَ بُنْطُسُ بِيلاطُسُ والِيًا على اليَهُودِيَّة، وهِيرُودُسُ رَئِيسَ رُبْعٍ على الجَلِيل، وفِيلِبُّسُ أَخُوهُ رَئيسَ رُبْعٍ على بِلادِ إِيطُورِيَّةَ وتَراخُونِيتِس، ولِيسَانِيوسُ رَئِيسَ رُبْعٍ على أَبِيلِينَة
في أَيَّامِ حَنَّانَ وقَيَافَا عَظِيمَي الأَحْبَار، كَانَتْ كَلِمَةُ اللهِ إِلى يُوحَنَّا بنِ زَكَرِيَّا في البَرِّيَّة
فأَتَى إِلى كُلِّ جِوَارِ الأُرْدُنِّ يُنَادِي بِمَعْمُودِيَّةِ التَّوْبَة، لِمَغْفِرَةِ الخَطايَا
كمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ في كِتَابِ أَقْوَالِ آشَعْيَا النَّبِيّ : «صَوْتُ صَارِخٍ في البَرِّيَّة: أَعِدُّوا طَرِيقَ الرَّبّ، وٱجْعَلُوا سُبُلَهُ قَويمَة
كُلُّ وادٍ يُرْدَم، وكُلُّ جَبَلٍ وتَلٍّ يُخْفَض، وتَصِيرُ السُّبُلُ المُلْتَوِيةُ مُسْتَقِيمَة، والأَمَاكِنُ الوَعِرَةُ طُرُقًا سَهْلَة
ويَرَى كُلُّ بَشَرٍ خَلاصَ الله
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 4:12-17.23-25.
When Jesus heard that John had been arrested, he withdrew to Galilee.
He left Nazareth and went to live in Capernaum by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali,
that what had been said through Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled:
Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, the way to the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles,
the people who sit in darkness have seen a great light, on those dwelling in a land overshadowed by death light has arisen.”
From that time on, Jesus began to preach and say, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
He went around all of Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom, and curing every disease and illness among the people.
His fame spread to all of Syria, and they brought to him all who were sick with various diseases and racked with pain, those who were possessed, lunatics, and paralytics, and he cured them.
And great crowds from Galilee, the Decapolis, Jerusalem, and Judea, and from beyond the Jordan followed him.
