Psalm 98
Praise the Judge of the World
A Psalm.
1 O sing to the Lord a new song,
for he has done marvelous things.
His right hand and his holy arm
have gotten him victory.(A)
2 The Lord has made known his victory;
he has revealed his vindication in the sight of the nations.(B)
3 He has remembered his steadfast love and faithfulness
to the house of Israel.
All the ends of the earth have seen
the victory of our God.(C)
John 15:9-17
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
9 As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you; abide in my love. 10 If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments and abide in his love.(A) 11 I have said these things to you so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.(B)
12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.(C) 13 No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.(D) 14 You are my friends if you do what I command you.(E) 15 I do not call you servants[a] any longer, because the servant[b] does not know what the master is doing, but I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything that I have heard from my Father. 16 You did not choose me, but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit, fruit that will last, so that the Father will give you whatever you ask him in my name.(F) 17 I am giving you these commands so that you may love one another.
