his love endures forever.^(C)

²Let Israel say:^(D)
    “His love endures forever.”^(E)
³Let the house of Aaron say:^(F)
    “His love endures forever.”
⁴Let those who fear the Lord^(G) say:
    “His love endures forever.”

⁵When hard pressed,^(H) I cried to the Lord;
    he brought me into a spacious place.^(I)
⁶The Lord is with me;^(J) I will not be afraid.
    What can mere mortals do to me?^(K)
⁷The Lord is with me; he is my helper.^(L)
    I look in triumph on my enemies.^(M)

⁸It is better to take refuge in the Lord^(N)
    than to trust in humans.^(O)
⁹It is better to take refuge in the Lord
    than to trust in princes.^(P)
¹⁰All the nations surrounded me,
    but in the name of the Lord I cut them down.^(Q)
¹¹They surrounded me^(R) on every side,^(S)
    but in the name of the Lord I cut them down.
¹²They swarmed around me like bees,^(T)
    but they were consumed as quickly as burning thorns;^(U)
    in the name of the Lord I cut them down.^(V)
¹³I was pushed back and about to fall,
    but the Lord helped me.^(W)
¹⁴The Lord is my strength^(X) and my defense^[a];
    he has become my salvation.^(Y)

¹⁵Shouts of joy^(Z) and victory
    resound in the tents of the righteous:
“The Lord’s right hand^(AA) has done mighty things!^(AB)
¹⁶    The Lord’s right hand is lifted high;
    the Lord’s right hand has done mighty things!”
¹⁷I will not die^(AC) but live,
    and will proclaim^(AD) what the Lord has done.
¹⁸The Lord has chastened^(AE) me severely,
    but he has not given me over to death.^(AF)
¹⁹Open for me the gates^(AG) of the righteous;
    I will enter^(AH) and give thanks to the Lord.
²⁰This is the gate of the Lord^(AI)
    through which the righteous may enter.^(AJ)
²¹I will give you thanks, for you answered me;^(AK)
    you have become my salvation.^(AL)

²²The stone^(AM) the builders rejected
    has become the cornerstone;^(AN)
²³the Lord has done this,
    and it is marvelous^(AO) in our eyes.
²⁴The Lord has done it this very day;
    let us rejoice today and be glad.^(AP)

²⁵Lord, save us!^(AQ)
Lord, grant us success!

²⁶Blessed is he who comes^(AR) in the name of the Lord.
    From the house of the Lord we bless you.^[b]^(AS)
²⁷The Lord is God,^(AT)
    and he has made his light shine^(AU) on us.
With boughs in hand,^(AV) join in the festal procession
    up^[c] to the horns of the altar.^(AW)

²⁸You are my God, and I will praise you;
you are my God,^(AX) and I will exalt^(AY) you.

²⁹Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
his love endures forever.

The Song of Moses and Miriam

15 Then Moses and the Israelites sang this song^(A) to the Lord:

“I will sing^(B) to the Lord,
for he is highly exalted.
Both horse and driver^(C)
he has hurled into the sea.^(D)

²“The Lord is my strength^(E) and my defense^[a];
    he has become my salvation.^(F)
He is my God,^(G) and I will praise him,
    my father’s God, and I will exalt^(H) him.
³The Lord is a warrior;^(I)
    the Lord is his name.^(J)
⁴Pharaoh’s chariots and his army^(K)
    he has hurled into the sea.
The best of Pharaoh’s officers
    are drowned in the Red Sea.^[b]
⁵The deep waters^(L) have covered them;
    they sank to the depths like a stone.^(M)
⁶Your right hand,^(N) Lord,
    was majestic in power.
Your right hand,^(O) Lord,
    shattered^(P) the enemy.

⁷“In the greatness of your majesty^(Q)
    you threw down those who opposed you.
You unleashed your burning anger;^(R)
    it consumed^(S) them like stubble.
⁸By the blast of your nostrils^(T)
    the waters piled up.^(U)
The surging waters stood up like a wall;^(V)
    the deep waters congealed in the heart of the sea.^(W)
⁹The enemy boasted,
    ‘I will pursue,^(X) I will overtake them.
I will divide the spoils;^(Y)
    I will gorge myself on them.
I will draw my sword
    and my hand will destroy them.’
¹⁰But you blew with your breath,^(Z)
    and the sea covered them.
They sank like lead
    in the mighty waters.^(AA)
¹¹Who among the gods
    is like you,^(AB) Lord?
Who is like you—
    majestic in holiness,^(AC)
awesome in glory,^(AD)
    working wonders?^(AE)

Jesus Has Risen^(A)

24 On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared^(B) and went to the tomb. ²They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, ³but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.^(C) ⁴While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning^(D) stood beside them. ⁵In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? ⁶He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee:^(E) ⁷‘The Son of Man^(F) must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’ ”^(G) ⁸Then they remembered his words.^(H)

⁹When they came back from the tomb, they told all these things to the Eleven and to all the others. ¹⁰It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the others with them^(I) who told this to the apostles.^(J) ¹¹But they did not believe^(K) the women, because their words seemed to them like nonsense. ¹²Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb. Bending over, he saw the strips of linen lying by themselves,^(L) and he went away,^(M) wondering to himself what had happened.

1 Corinthians 15:1-11

New International Version

The Resurrection of Christ

15 Now, brothers and sisters, I want to remind you of the gospel^(A) I preached to you,^(B) which you received and on which you have taken your stand. ²By this gospel you are saved,^(C) if you hold firmly^(D) to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.

³For what I received^(E) I passed on to you^(F) as of first importance^[a]: that Christ died for our sins^(G) according to the Scriptures,^(H) ⁴that he was buried,^(I) that he was raised^(J) on the third day^(K) according to the Scriptures,^(L) ⁵and that he appeared to Cephas,^[b]^(M) and then to the Twelve.^(N) ⁶After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers and sisters at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep.^(O) ⁷Then he appeared to James,^(P) then to all the apostles,^(Q) ⁸and last of all he appeared to me also,^(R) as to one abnormally born.

⁹For I am the least of the apostles^(S) and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted^(T) the church of God.^(U) ¹⁰But by the grace^(V) of God I am what I am, and his grace to me^(W) was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them^(X)—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.^(Y) ¹¹Whether, then, it is I or they,^(Z) this is what we preach, and this is what you believed.
