關於升天節


 

 

升天日祝文
Collect, Ascension Day 
 
全能的上帝,祢當受頌揚的聖子我們的救主耶穌基督已經升到諸天之上,因此祂貫乎萬有;求祢施憐憫,賜給我們信心,使我們知道,依照祂的應許,祂在地上和教會同在,直到世界的末了;藉賴我們的主耶穌基督而求;聖子和聖父、聖靈,惟一上帝,一同永生,一同掌權,同享尊榮,永世無盡。阿們。
 
Almighty God, whose blessed Son our Saviour Jesus Christ ascended far above all heavens that He might fill all things: Mercifully give us faith to perceive that, according to His promise, He abides with His Church on earth, even to the end of the ages; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen. 
 
全能的上帝,我們深信獨生聖子我們的主耶穌基督已經升天,求祢使我們的心靈嚮慕天上的事,如同升到天上,常與祂同居;聖子和聖父、聖靈,惟一上帝,一同永生,一同掌權,永世無盡。阿們。
 
Grant, we pray, Almighty God, that as we believe Your only-begotten Son our Lord Jesus Christ to have ascended into heaven, so we may also in heart and mind there ascend, and with Him continually dwell; who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. 
 
 
升天日後主日祝文
Collect, The Sunday after Ascension Day 
 
上帝,榮耀的君王,祢已經使祢的獨生聖子耶穌基督得勝,升到祢天上的國:求祢切勿丟棄我們不得安慰,但求差遣聖靈激勵我們,使我們亦能升到我們的救主基督所先到的地方;聖子和聖父、聖靈,惟一上帝,一同永生,一同掌權,同享尊榮,永世無盡。阿們。
 
O God, the King of glory, You have exalted Your only Son Jesus Christ with great triumph to Your kingdom in heaven: Do not leave us comfortless, but send us Your Holy Spirit to strengthen us, and exalt us to that place where our Saviour Christ has gone before; who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen.
