Láthair Dé

A Thiarna, tá tú i gcónaí ann
ag fanacht liom.
Ná raibh mé ró-ghnóthach riamh le
teacht ar am le caitheamh i do láthair.

Saoirse

D’fhuascail do bhás ar an gCrois mé.
Is féidir liom maireachtáil go sona sásta gan srian,
gan eagla faoin mbás.
Níl teorainn ar bith ar do thrócaire.

Comhfhios

A Thiarna thug tú “solas an domhain” orm.
Lig dom a bheith feasach i gcónaí orthu siúd a dteastaíonn uait go ndéanfainn freastal orthu:
daoine ocracha agus gan dídean,
na heasláin agus na bochtáin,
an strainséir agus an teifeach.

Briathar Dé

³³“Listen to another parable. There was a landowner who planted a vineyard, put a fence around it, dug a winepress in it, and built a watchtower. Then he leased it to tenants and went away. ³⁴When the harvest time had come, he sent his slaves to the tenants to collect his produce. ³⁵But the tenants seized his slaves and beat one, killed another, and stoned another. ³⁶Again he sent other slaves, more than the first, and they treated them in the same way. ³⁷Then he sent his son to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’ ³⁸But when the tenants saw the son, they said to themselves, ‘This is the heir; come, let us kill him and get his inheritance.’ ³⁹So they seized him, threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him. ⁴⁰Now when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?” ⁴¹They said to him, “He will put those wretches to a miserable death and lease the vineyard to other tenants who will give him the produce at the harvest time.”

⁴²Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the scriptures:

‘The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; this was the Lord’s doing, and it is amazing in our eyes’?

⁴³“Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people that produces its fruits.

⁴⁵When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they realized that he was speaking about them. ⁴⁶They wanted to arrest him, but they feared the crowds, because they regarded him as a prophet.

Inspioráid

Nuair a chuir úinéir na talún a mhac chun an cíos a bhí dlite ag na tionóntaí a bhailiú, caitheadh ​​go náireach leis an bhfear óg agus maraíodh é sa deireadh. Mar an gcéanna le hÍosa, nuair a léirigh an tAthair flaithiúlacht mhór trína sheoladh chugainn. Ach bhí Dia in ann rudaí móra a dhéanamh as an drochíde a tugadh dá mhac. Thug an chros, crann an bháis, deis do Dhia méid a mhaitheasa a nochtadh dúinn uile.

Comhrá

“Fan agus bí ag faire liom.”
B’iad seo do bhriathra, a Thiarna, leis na deisceabail,
roimh d’fhulaingt agus do bhás.
Tá a fhios agam, a Thiarna, go bhfanfaidh tú agus go bhféachfaidh tú orm
gach lá de mo shaol.

Conclúid

Lán le láithreacht ghrámhar Dé,
Iarraim air beannacht a thabhairt dom agus mo chéimeanna a threorú
agus mé ag dul chun a chuid oibre a dhéanamh i mo shaol laethúil.
