Psalm 116

Thanks to God for Deliverance

¹I love the Lord because he has heard
my appeal for mercy.^(A)
²Because he has turned his ear to me,
I will call out to him as long as I live.^(B)

³The ropes of death were wrapped around me,
and the torments of Sheol overcame me;
I encountered trouble and sorrow.^(C)
⁴Then I called on the name of the Lord:
“Lord, save me!” ^(D)

⁵The Lord is gracious and righteous;
our God is compassionate.^(E)
⁶The Lord guards the inexperienced;
I was helpless, and he saved me.^(F)
⁷Return to your rest, my soul,
for the Lord has been good to you.^(G)
⁸For you, Lord, rescued me from death,
my eyes from tears,
my feet from stumbling.^(H)
⁹I will walk before the Lord
in the land of the living.^(I)
¹⁰I believed, even when I said,
“I am severely oppressed.”^(J)
¹¹In my alarm I said,
“Everyone is a liar.”^(K)

¹²How can I repay the Lord
for all the good he has done for me?^(L)
¹³I will take the cup of salvation
and call on the name of the Lord.^(M)
¹⁴I will fulfill my vows to the Lord
in the presence of all his people.^(N)

¹⁵The death of his faithful ones
is valuable in the Lord’s sight.^(O)
¹⁶Lord, I am indeed your servant;
I am your servant, the son of your female servant.
You have loosened my bonds.^(P)

¹⁷I will offer you a thanksgiving sacrifice
and call on the name of the Lord.^(Q)
¹⁸I will fulfill my vows to the Lord
in the presence of all his people,^(R)
¹⁹in the courts of the Lord’s house—
within you, Jerusalem.^(S)
Hallelujah!

Luke 24:1-12

Resurrection Morning

24 On^(A) the first day of the week,^(B) very early in the morning, they^[a] came to the tomb, bringing the spices they had prepared. ²They found the stone rolled away from the tomb. ³They went in but did not find the body^(C) of the Lord Jesus.^(D) ⁴While they were perplexed about this, suddenly two men stood by them in dazzling^(E) clothes. ⁵So the women were terrified and bowed down to the ground.

“Why are you looking for the living among the dead?” asked the men. ⁶“He is not here, but he has risen!^(F) Remember how he spoke to you when he was still in Galilee,^(G) ⁷saying, ‘It is necessary that the Son of Man be betrayed^(H) into the hands of sinful men, be crucified, and rise^(I) on the third day’?” ⁸And they remembered his words.

⁹Returning from the tomb, they reported all these things to the Eleven^(J) and to all the rest. ¹⁰Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James,^(K) and the other women with them were telling the apostles^(L) these things. ¹¹But these words seemed like nonsense to them, and they did not believe^(M) the women. ¹²Peter,^(N) however, got up and ran to the tomb. When he stooped to look in, he saw only the linen cloths.^[b]^(O) So he went away, amazed^(P) at what had happened.
