In God We Live --- James 4:13-17

L-ewwel Qari ta' L-Erbgħa tas-seba' ġimgħa ta' matul is-sena.

Il-ftaħir żejjed

 

[Ġak:4:13] Issa ejjew, intom li tgħidu: "Illum jew għada mmorru f'din jew dik il-belt u nqattgħu sena hemmhekk, nixtru u nbigħu u nagħmlu l-flus," [Ġak:4:14] u intom ma tafux x'għad isir għada. Għax x'inhi ħajjitkom? Intom bħal fwar li jidher għal ftit u mbagħad jgħib. [Ġak:4:15] Flok ma tgħidu: "Jekk il-Mulej irid, ngħixu u nagħmlu dan jew dak," [Ġak:4:16] tiftaħru bil-frugħat tagħkom! Kull ftaħir bħal dan huwa ħażen. [Ġak:4:17] Jekk mela xi ħadd jagħraf it-tajjeb li għandu jagħmel u ma jagħmlux, jagħmel dnub.

1st Reading of Wednesday of week 7 in Ordinary Time

Boasting About Tomorrow (James 4:13-17)

¹³ Now listen, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.” ¹⁴ Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. ¹⁵ Instead, you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.” ¹⁶ As it is, you boast in your arrogant schemes. All such boasting is evil. ¹⁷ If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them.
