إنجيل القدّيس متّى .22-16:23
قالَ الربُّ يَسوع: أَلوَيلُ لَكُم، أَيُّهَا القَادَةُ العُمْيَان! لأَنَّكُم تَقُولُون: مَنْ حَلَفَ بِالمَقْدِس، فَلا قِيمَةَ لِحَلَفِهِ، أَمَّا مَنْ حَلَفَ بِذَهَبِ المَقْدِس، فَحَلَفُهُ مُلْزِم
أَيُّهَا الجُهَّالُ والعُمْيَان، مَا الأَعْظَم؟ الذَّهَبُ أَمِ المَقْدِسُ الَّذي يُقَدِّسُ الذَّهَب؟
وتَقُولُون أَيضًا: مَنْ حَلَفَ بِالمَذْبَح، فلا قِيمَةَ لِحَلَفِهِ، أَمَّا مَنْ حَلَفَ بِالتَّقْدِمَةِ الَّتي عَلَيه، فَحَلَفُهُ مُلْزِم
أَيُّهَا العُمْيَان! مَا الأَعْظَم؟ التَّقْدِمَةُ أَمِ ٱلمَذْبَحُ الَّذي يُقَدِّسُ التَّقْدِمَة؟
فَمَنْ حَلَفَ بِالمَذْبَح، فَقَدْ حَلَفَ بِهِ وَبِكُلِّ مَا عَلَيْه
ومَنْ حَلَفَ بِالمَقْدِس، فَقَدْ حَلَفَ بِهِ وبِٱللهِ السَّاكنِ فِيهِ
ومَنْ حَلَفَ بِالسَّمَاء، فَقَدْ حَلَفَ بِعَرْشِ اللهِ وبِالجَالِسِ عَلَيه
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 13:36-43.
Jesus dismissed the crowds and went into the house. His disciples approached him and said, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field.”
He said in reply, “He who sows good seed is the Son of Man,
the field is the world, the good seed the children of the kingdom. The weeds are the children of the evil one,
and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.
Just as weeds are collected and burned (up) with fire, so will it be at the end of the age.
The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will collect out of his kingdom all who cause others to sin and all evildoers.
They will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.
Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Whoever has ears ought to hear.”
