Fifth praise

Laudato si', mi' Signore per sora nostra matre terra 

la quale ne sustenta et governa

e produce diversi fructi, con coloriti flori et herba

(Praised be You, my Lord, through Sister Mother Earth, 

who sustains us and governs us 

and who produces varied fruits with coloured flowers and herbs)

Mk 4, 2-8

And Jesus taught them at length in parables, and in the course of his instruction he said to them, “Hear this! A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seed fell on the path, and the birds came and ate it up. Other seed fell on rocky ground where it had little soil. It sprang up at once because the soil was not deep. And when the sun rose, it was scorched and it withered for lack of roots. Some seed fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it and it produced no grain. And some seed fell on rich soil and produced fruit. It came up and grew and yielded thirty, sixty, and a hundredfold.”

(short meditation) 

Laudato si', mi' Signore, 

per sora nostra matre terra

(10 volte) 

Glory be to the Father 

and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, 

as it was in the beginning is now, 

and ever shall be world without end.

Amen
