The Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ
according to Saint Luke 10:38-42
Now as they went on their way, he entered a certain village,
where a woman named Martha welcomed him into her home. She
had a sister named Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet and listened to
what he was saying.
But Martha was distracted by her many tasks; so she came to him
and asked, ‘Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to do all
the work by myself? Tell her then to help me.’ But the Lord answered
her, ‘Martha, Martha, you are worried and distracted by many things;
there is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part,
which will not be taken away from her.’
