Book of Common Prayer
93 The LORD reigns and is clothed with majesty. The LORD is clothed and girded with power. Also, the world shall be established, so that it cannot be moved.
2 Your throne is established of old. You are from everlasting.
3 The floods have lifted up, O LORD. The floods have lifted up their voice. The floods lift up their waves.
4 The waves of the sea are marvelous through the noise of many waters. The LORD on High is more mighty.
5 Your testimonies are very sure. Holiness becomes Your House, O LORD, forever.
96 Sing to the LORD a new song! Sing to the LORD all the Earth!
2 Sing to the LORD! Praise His Name! Declare His salvation from day to day.
3 Declare His Glory among all nations, His wonders among all people.
4 For the LORD is great and greatly to be praised. He is to be feared above all gods.
5 For all the gods of the people are idols. But the LORD made the heavens.
6 Strength and glory are before Him. Power and beauty are in His Sanctuary.
7 Give to the LORD, you families of the people! Give to the LORD glory and power!
8 Give to the LORD the glory of His Name. Bring an offering and enter into His courts.
9 Worship the LORD in the glorious Sanctuary. Tremble before Him, all the Earth.
10 Say among the nations, “The LORD reigns!” Surely, the world shall be stable and not move; and He shall judge the people in righteousness.
11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the Earth be glad! Let the sea roar, and all that therein is.
12 Let the field be joyful, and all that is in it! Let all the trees of the wood then rejoice
13 before the LORD. For He comes. For He comes to judge the Earth. He will judge the world with righteousness, and the people in His truth.
34 I will always give thanks to the LORD. His praise shall be in my mouth continually.
2 My soul shall glory in the LORD. The humble shall hear it and be glad.
3 Praise the LORD with me; and let us magnify His Name together.
4 I sought the LORD, and He heard me. Indeed, He delivered me out of all my fear.
5 They shall look to Him and run; and their faces shall not be ashamed.
6 This poor man cried; and the LORD heard and saved him out of all his troubles.
7 The Angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him and delivers them.
8 Taste and see how gracious the LORD is. Blessed is the man who trusts in Him.
9 Fear the LORD, you, His saints. For those who fear Him lack nothing.
10 The lions lack and suffer hunger. But those who seek the LORD shall lack nothing that is good.
11 Come children, hear me. I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
12 What man is he who desires life and loves long days to see good?
13 Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips, so that they speak no deceit.
14 Turn from evil and do good. Seek peace and follow after it.
15 The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous; and His ears are open to their cry.
16 The face of the LORD is against those who do evil, to cut off their remembrance from the Earth.
17 The righteous cry and the LORD hears and delivers them out of all their troubles.
18 The LORD is near to those who are of a contrite heart; and will save such as are afflicted in spirit.
19 Great are the troubles of the righteous. But the LORD delivers him out of them all.
20 He keeps all His bones. Not one of them is broken.
21 Malice shall slay the wicked; and those who hate the righteous shall perish.
22 The LORD redeems the souls of His servants; and no one who trusts in Him shall perish. A Psalm of David.
14 “And He shall say, ‘Cast up! Cast up! Prepare the way! Take the stumbling blocks out of the way of My people!’”
15 For thus says He Who is high and excellent, He Who inhabits the eternity, Whose Name is the Holy One, “I dwell in the High and Holy Place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble and to give life to those who are of a contrite heart.
16 “For I will not contend forever. Nor will I always be angry. For the spirit should fail before me. And I have made the breath.
17 “I am angry with him for his wicked covetousness and have stricken him. I hid Myself and was angry. Yet he went away and turned after the way of his own heart.
18 “I have seen his ways and will heal him. I will also lead him and restore comfort to him, and to those who lament him.
19 “I create the fruit of the lips: peace—peace to those who are far off and to those who are near,” says the LORD, “—for I will heal him.
20 “But the wicked are like the raging sea that cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt.
21 “There is no peace,” says my God, “to the wicked.”
12 Therefore, seeing that we are surrounded with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also cast away everything that presses down and the sin that so easily entangles. Let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
2 looking to Jesus - the Author and Finisher of our faith - Who, for the joy that was set before Him, endured the cross and despised the shame and is set at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 Therefore, consider Him Who endured such hostility from sinners, so that you will not be wearied and faint in your minds.
4 In striving against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of bloodshed.
5 And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to children, “My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when you are rebuked by Him.
6 “For whom the Lord loves, he chastens. And He scourges every son that He receives.”
37 Now, on the last day (the great day) of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink!
38 “The one who believes in Me, as says the Scripture, ‘Out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water’!”
39 (He spoke this about the Spirit, Whom those who believed in Him were about to receive. For the Holy Ghost was not yet given because Jesus was not yet glorified.)
40 So, many of the people, when they heard this saying, said, “Truly this is the Prophet!”
41 Others said, “This is the Christ!” And some said, “But shall the Christ come out of Galilee?
42 “Does not the Scripture say that the Christ shall come from the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?
43 So there was dissension among the people because of Him.
44 And some of them would have taken Him, but no one laid hands on Him.
45 Then the officers came to the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, “Why have you not brought Him?”
46 The officers answered, “No man ever spoke like this Man speaks.”
