## 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 13:1–9

  **Show the text**

  1 Now there were some present at the same time who told him about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.

  2 Jesus answered them, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered such things?

  3 I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.

  4 Or those eighteen, on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them; do you think that they were worse offenders than all the men who dwell in Jerusalem?

  5 I tell you, no, but, unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.”

  6 He spoke this parable. “A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it, and found none.

  7 He said to the vine dresser, ‘Behold, these three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree, and found none. Cut it down. Why does it waste the soil?’

  8 He answered, ‘Lord, leave it alone this year also, until I dig around it and fertilize it.

  9 If it bears fruit, fine; but if not, after that, you can cut it down.’ ”
