Epistle

Deacon: Wisdom!

Reader: The reading is from the Letter of St. Paul to the Hebrews.

Deacon: Let us be attentive.

Reader: Brethren, who through faith subdued kingdoms, worked righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, became valiant in battle, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. Women received their dead raised to life again. Others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection. Still others had trial of mockings and scourgings, yes, and of chains and imprisonment. They were stoned, they were sawn in two, were tempted, were slain with the sword. They wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented— of whom the world was not worthy. They wandered in deserts and mountains, in dens and caves of the earth. And all these, having obtained a good testimony through faith, did not receive the promise, God having provided something better for us, that they should not be made perfect apart from us. Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Priest: Peace be with you.

Reader: And with your spirit. Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.

Verse: The righteous cried and the Lord heard him, and saved him from all his afflictions.

Verse: Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but He will deliver them from them all.

Communion Verses

Praise the Lord from the heavens, praise Him in the Highest. Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.

Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous, praise befits the upright. Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.

Апостол

Євр. 11:33–12:2

Браття, ті які вірою перемагали царства, творили правду, одержували обітниці, закривали пащі левів, гасили силу вогню і уникали вістря меча, зміцнювались від немочі, були сильні на війні, проганяли полки чужинців; жінки одержували померлих своїх воскреслими; інші ж замучені були, не прийнявши визволення, щоб одержати краще воскресіння; інші зазнали наруги та побоїв, а також кайданів і темниці, були побиті камінням, перепилювані, зазнавали катування, помирали від меча, скиталися в овечих і козячих шкурах, терплячи нестатки, скорботи, озлоблення; ті, котрих весь світ не був достойний, скиталися по пустелях і горах, по печерах та ущелинах землі. І всі ці, засвідчені у вірі, не одержали обіцяного, тому що Бог передбачив про нас щось краще, щоб вони не без нас досягли досконалості. Тому і ми, маючи довкола себе таку хмару свідків, скиньмо з себе всякий тягар і гріх, який нас обплутує, і з терпінням будемо проходити поприще, яке лежить перед нами, дивлячись на начальника і виконавця віри Ісуса, Котрий замість радості, яка Йому належала, витерпів хрест, зневаживши посоромлення, і сів праворуч престолу Божого.
