## Readings of the day

- Epistle

  2 Timothy 3:1–9

  **Show the text**

  1 But know this: that in the last days, grievous times will come.

  2 For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

  3 without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, not lovers of good,

  4 traitors, headstrong, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,

  5 holding a form of godliness, but having denied its power. Turn away from these, also.

  6 For some of these are people who creep into houses and take captive gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,

  7 always learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

  8 Even as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these also oppose the truth, men corrupted in mind, who concerning the faith are rejected.

  9 But they will proceed no further. For their folly will be evident to all men, as theirs also came to be.

- Gospel

  Luke 20:46–21:4

  **Show the text**

  46 “Beware of those scribes who like to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces, the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts;

  47 who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers: these will receive greater condemnation.”

  1 He looked up and saw the rich people who were putting their gifts into the treasury.

  2 He saw a certain poor widow casting in two small brass coins.

  3 He said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow put in more than all of them,

  4 for all these put in gifts for God from their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, put in all that she had to live on.”
