2nd Sunday of the Great Fast
Sunday of the Paralytic
Heb 1:10 - 2:3

A reading - from the Letter of Saint Paul the Apostle to the Hebrews

Brothers and sisters: [Scripture says:] “Lord, of old you established the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you remain; all of them will grow old like a | gar | ment.

You will roll them up like a cloak, like a garment they will be changed. But you are the same, and your years will have | no | end.”

To which of the angels has God ever said, “sit at my right hand till I make your enemies your footstool”? Are they not all ministering spirits, sent to serve those who are to inherit | sal | vation?

In view of this, we must attend all the more to what we have hard, lest we drift | a | way.

For if the word spoken through angels stood unchanged, and all transgressions and disobedience received its due punishment, how shall we escape if we ignore a salvation as great | as | ours?

Announced first by the Lord, it was confirmed to us by those who had - heard - him.
