Isomo rya 1: Izayi 49,8-15
Uhoraho avuze atya: Igihe cy’ubutoneshwe naragusubije, ku munsi wo gukizwa naragutabaye, ndaguhanga, nkugenera kuvugurura isezerano nagiranye n’imbaga nyamwinshi, kugira ngo mbyutse igihugu, maze nsubize iminani abari barayinyazwe. Imfungwa nzazibwire nti «Nimusohoke» n’abari mu mwijima nti «Nimujye ahabona.» Iruhande rw’inzira, bazahabona ubwatsi, ku misozi yose y’agasi, bazahagire urwuri. Inzara n’inyota ntibizabica, icyocyere cy’umusenyi cyangwa izuba ntibizabageraho; kuko ubakunda bihebuje azabayobora, akaberekeza ku masoko y’amazi afutse. Ku misozi yose nzahahanga inzira, n’imihanda yanjye nyabagendwa iringanizwe. Ngabo baraje, baturutse iyo bigwa, bamwe mu majyaruguru no mu burengerazuba, abandi baturutse mu gihugu cya Asuwani. Ijuru nirivuze impundu, isi nisabagire, imisozi itere indirimbo z’ibyishimo, kuko Uhoraho yahumurije umuryango we, abakozwaga isoni, akabereka urukundo rwe. Siyoni yaravugaga iti «Uhoraho yarantereranye, Nyagasani yaranyibagiwe.» Mbese ye, umugore yakwibagirwa umwana yonsa? Ese yaburira impuhwe umwana yibyariye? Kabone n’aho we yarengwaho, jyewe sinzigera nkwibagirwa.
Zaburi ya 144 (145), 8-9, 13cd-14, 17-18
Uhoraho ni umunyampuhwe n’umunyaneza,
atinda kurakara kandi akagira urugwiro.
Uhoraho agirira bose ibambe,
maze imbabazi ze zigasakara ku biremwa bye byose.
Uhoraho ni mutabeshya,
akaba indahemuka mu byo akora byose.
Uhoraho aramira abagwa bose,
abunamiranye akabaha kwemarara.
Uhoraho ni umunyabutungane mu nzira ze zose,
akarangwa n’urukundo mu bikorwa bye byose.
Uhoraho aba hafi y’abamwiyambaza,
hafi y’abamwiyambaza babikuye ku mutima.
Ivanjili ya Mutagatifu Yohani 5,17-30
Nuko Yezu arabasubiza ati «Kugeza ubu Data arakora, nanjye ngakora.» Ayo magambo atuma Abayahudi barushaho gushaka impamvu yo kumwica, batamuziza gusa ko yicaga isabato, ahubwo bamuziza kandi ko yavugaga ko Imana ari Se, akiringaniza n’Imana. Nuko Yezu aboneraho, arababwira ati «Ndababwira ukuri koko: Mwana nta cyo ashobora gukora ku bwe, uretse icyo abonye Se akora, kuko icyo akoze, na Mwana aragikora. Koko rero Data akunda Mwana, kandi amwereka ibyo akora byose. Ndetse azamwereka ibirushije ibi ngibi maze muzatangare. Uko Data azura abapfuye kandi akabeshaho, ni na ko Mwana abeshaho abo yishakiye. Nyamara Data nta we acira urubanza; imanza zose yazeguriye Mwana, kugira ngo bose bubahe Mwana nk’uko bubaha Data. Utubaha Mwana ntiyubaha na Data wamwohereje. Ndababwira ukuri koko: uwumva ijambo ryanjye kandi akemera n’Uwantumye, agira ubugingo bw’iteka kandi ntazacirwa urubanza, ahubwo aba avuye mu rupfu yinjiye mu bugingo. Ndababwira ukuri koko: igihe kiregereje ndetse tukirimo, maze abapfuye bakazumva ijwi ry’Umwana w’Imana, kandi abaryumvise bakazabaho. Uko Data yifitemo ubugingo, ni na ko yahaye Mwana kwigiramo ubugingo. Kandi amuha ububasha bwo guca imanza, kuko ari Umwana w’umuntu. Ibyo ntibibatangaze, kuko igihe cyegereje, maze abari mu mva bose, bazumve ijwi rye. Nuko abazaba barakoze neza, bazazukire kubaho, naho abazaba barakoze nabi, bazukire gucirwa urubanza. Nta cyo nshobora gukora ku bwanjye. Nca urubanza nkurikije ibyo numvise, kandi urubanza rwanjye ntirubera; kuko ndakurikiza ugushaka kwanjye, ahubwo nkurikiza icyo Uwantumye ashaka.
