## Readings of the day

- Epistle

  Ephesians 1:22–2:3

  **Show the text**

  22 He put all things in subjection under his feet, and gave him to be head over all things for the assembly,

  23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.

  1 You were made alive when you were dead in transgressions and sins,

  2 in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the children of disobedience.

  3 We also all once lived among them in the lusts of our flesh, doing the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.

- Gospel

  Luke 6:24–30

  **Show the text**

  24 “But woe to you who are rich! For you have received your consolation.

  25 Woe to you, you who are full now, for you will be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will mourn and weep.

  26 Woe, when men speak well of you, for their fathers did the same thing to the false prophets.

  27 “But I tell you who hear: love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,

  28 bless those who curse you, and pray for those who mistreat you.

  29 To him who strikes you on the cheek, offer also the other; and from him who takes away your cloak, don’t withhold your coat also.

  30 Give to everyone who asks you, and don’t ask him who takes away your goods to give them back again.
