BY YOUR ENDURANCE YOU WILL WIN
Reading Apocalypse 15:1-4
The victors sang the hymn of Moses and of the Lamb
What I, John, saw in heaven was a great and wonderful sign: seven angels were bringing the seven plagues that are the last of all, because they exhaust the anger of God. I seemed to see a glass lake suffused with fire, and standing by the lake of glass, those who had fought against the beast and won, and against his statue and the number which is his name. They all had harps from God, and they were singing the hymn of Moses, the servant of God, and of the Lamb: Readings from Universalis
Gospel Luke 21:12-19 Your endurance will win you your lives
Jesus said to his disciples: ‘Men will seize you and persecute you; they will hand you over to the synagogues and to imprisonment, and bring you before kings and governors because of my name – and that will be your opportunity to bear witness. Keep this carefully in mind: you are not to prepare your defence, because I myself shall give you an eloquence and a wisdom that none of your opponents will be able to resist or contradict. You will be betrayed even by parents and brothers, relations and friends; and some of you will be put to death. You will be hated by all men on account of my name, but not a hair of your head will be lost. Your endurance will win you your lives.’ Reflection MCL
‘How great and
wonderful are all your works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are all your
ways,King of nations.
Who would not revere and praise your name, O Lord? You alone are holy, and all
the people will come and adore you for the many acts of justice you have
shown.’ The hymn of Moses

Lecture de l’Apocalypse de saint Jean 15, 1-4 « Ils chantent le cantique de Moïse
et le cantique de l’Agneau »
Moi, Jean, j’ai vu dans le ciel un autre signe, grand et merveilleux : sept
anges qui détiennent sept fléaux ; ce sont les derniers, puisque s’achève avec
eux la fureur de Dieu. J’ai vu comme une mer de cristal, mêlée de feu, et ceux qui sont victorieux de
la Bête, de son image, et du chiffre qui correspond à son nom : ils se tiennent
debout sur cette mer de cristal, ils ont en main les cithares de Dieu. Ils
chantent le cantique de Moïse, serviteur de Dieu, et le cantique de l’Agneau.
Ils disent :
Évangile Luc 21, 12-19 « Vous serez détestés
de tous, à cause de mon nom. Mais pas un cheveu de votre tête ne sera perdu »
