## Readings of the day

- Epistle

  1 Thessalonians 5:1–8

  **Show the text**

  1 But concerning the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that anything be written to you.

  2 For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord comes like a thief in the night.

  3 For when they are saying, “Peace and safety,” then sudden destruction will come on them, like birth pains on a pregnant woman. Then they will in no way escape.

  4 But you, brothers, aren’t in darkness, that the day should overtake you like a thief.

  5 You are all children of light and children of the day. We don’t belong to the night, nor to darkness,

  6 so then let’s not sleep, as the rest do, but let’s watch and be sober.

  7 For those who sleep, sleep in the night; and those who are drunk are drunk in the night.

  8 But since we belong to the day, let’s be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.

- Gospel

  Luke 18:31–34

  **Show the text**

  31 He took the twelve aside, and said to them, “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written through the prophets concerning the Son of Man will be completed.

  32 For he will be delivered up to the Gentiles, will be mocked, treated shamefully, and spit on.

  33 They will scourge and kill him. On the third day, he will rise again.”

  34 They understood none of these things. This saying was hidden from them, and they didn’t understand the things that were said.
