Book of Common Prayer
24 The Earth is the LORD’s and all that therein is, the world and those who dwell therein.
2 For He has founded it upon the seas and established it upon the floods.
3 Who shall ascend into the Mountain of the LORD? And who shall stand in His Holy Place?
4 He who has innocent hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted up his mind to vanity nor sworn deceitfully.
5 He shall receive a blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6 This is the generation of those who seek Him, of those who seek Your face. This is Jacob. Selah.
7 Lift up your heads, you gates. And be lifted up, you everlasting doors. And the King of Glory shall come in.
8 Who is this King of Glory: The LORD, strong and mighty. The LORD, mighty in battle.
9 Lift up your heads, you gates. And lift up yourselves, you everlasting doors. And the King of Glory shall come in.
10 Who is this King of Glory: The LORD of Hosts. He is the King of Glory. Selah. A Psalm of David.
29 Give to the LORD, you sons of the Mighty. Give to the LORD glory and strength.
2 Give to the LORD glory due His Name. Worship the LORD in the glorious Sanctuary.
3 The voice of the LORD is upon the waters. The God of Glory makes it thunder. The LORD is upon the great waters.
4 The voice of the LORD is mighty. The voice of the LORD is glorious.
5 The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars. Indeed, the LORD breaks the cedars of Lebanon.
6 He also makes them leap like a calf, Lebanon and Shirion like a young unicorn.
7 The voice of the LORD divides the flames of fire.
8 The voice of the LORD makes the wilderness tremble. The LORD makes the wilderness of Kadesh tremble.
9 The voice of the LORD makes the hinds calve and discovers the forests. In His Temple, every man speaks of His Glory.
10 The LORD sits upon the floods; and the LORD remains King forever.
11 The LORD shall give strength to His people. The LORD shall bless His people with peace. A Psalm or song of the dedication of the House of David.
8 O LORD, our Lord, how excellent is Your Name in all the world; Who has set Your Glory above the heavens!
2 Out of the mouth of children and infants You have ordained strength, because of Your enemies; that You might cease the enemy and the avenger.
3 When I behold Your heavens, the works of Your fingers; the moon and the stars which You have ordained,
4 what is man that You are mindful of him; and the son of man that You seek him?
5 For You have made him a little lower than God and crowned him with glory and worship.
6 You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands. You have put all things under his feet,
7 all sheep and oxen; indeed, and the beasts of the field,
8 the birds of the air and the fish of the sea; that which passes through the paths of the seas.
9 O LORD, our Lord, how excellent is Your Name in all the world! To him who excels upon Muth Labben: A Psalm of David.
84 O LORD of Hosts, how lovely are Your Tabernacles!
2 My soul longs, indeed, and fainted for the courts of the LORD! My heart and my flesh rejoice in the living God!
3 Indeed, the sparrow has found a house, and the swallow a nest for her; where she may lay her young by Your altars, O LORD of Hosts, my King and my God.
4 Blessed are those who dwell in Your House. They will ever praise You. Selah.
5 Blessed is the man whose strength is in You, in whose heart are Your ways.
6 They, going through the valley of Baca, make wells therein. The rain also covers the pools.
7 They go from strength to strength, until every one appears before God in Zion.
8 O, LORD God of Hosts, hear my prayer! Give ear, O God of Jacob! Selah.
9 Behold, O God Our Shield, and look upon the face of Your Anointed.
10 For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the House of my God than to dwell in the tabernacles of wickedness.
11 For the LORD God is the Sun and Shield. The LORD will give grace and glory; and He will withhold no good thing from those who walk uprightly.
12 O, LORD of Hosts, blessed is the man who trusts in You. To him who excels: A Psalm committed to the sons of Korah
1 The words of Jeremiah, the son of Hilkiah, one of the Priests who were at Anathoth, in the land of Benjamin,
2 to whom the Word of the LORD came in the days of Josiah, the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign,
3 and also in the days of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, to the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month.
4 Then the Word of the LORD came to me, saying,
5 “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you. And before you came out of the womb, I sanctified you and ordained you to be a Prophet to the nations.”
6 Then I said, “Oh, LORD God. Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a child.”
7 But the LORD said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am a child’. For you shall go to all that I shall send you. And whatever I Command you, you shall speak.
8 “Do not be afraid of their faces. For I am with you, to deliver you,” said the LORD.
9 Then the LORD stretched out His Hand and touched my mouth. And the LORD said to me, “Behold, I have put My Words in your mouth.
10 “Behold, this day I have set you over the nations, and over the kingdoms, to pluck up, and to root out, and to destroy, and throw down, to build, and to plant.”
11 For no one can lay a foundation other than that which is laid; which is Jesus Christ.
12 And if anyone builds gold, silver, precious stones, timber, hay, or stubble upon this foundation,
13 everyone’s work shall be made apparent. For the Day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by the fire. And the fire shall test everyone’s work, of what sort it is.
14 If anyone’s work that he has built upon abides, he shall receive wages.
15 If anyone’s work burns, he shall suffer loss. But he himself shall be saved, although still, as it were, by fire.
16 Do you not know that you are the Temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?
17 If anyone destroys the Temple of God, God shall destroy him. For the Temple of God is holy, which you are.
18 Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this world, let him be a fool, that he may be wise.
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, ‘He catches the wise in their own craftiness’.
20 And again, ‘The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are useless’.
21 Therefore, let no one boast in man. For all things are yours,
22 whether it be Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death - whether things present, or things to come - all are yours,
23 and you Christ’s, and Christ God’s.
31 Then His brothers and mother came and stood outside and sent word to Him and called Him.
32 And the people who sat around Him said to Him, “Behold, your mother and your brothers seek you outside.”
33 But He answered them, saying, “Who is my mother and my brothers?”
34 And He looked at those who sat around Him, and said, “Behold My mother and My brothers.
35 “For whoever does the will of God, he is My brother, My sister, and My mother.”
4 And He began again to teach by the seaside. And there gathered to Him a great multitude. So that He entered into a ship and sat in the sea. And all the people were by the seaside, on the land.
2 And He taught them many things in parables, and said to them in His doctrine,
3 “Hear now. Behold, there went out a sower to sow.
4 “And it happened that, as he sowed, some fell by the wayside. And the birds of the heaven came and devoured it up.
5 “And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth. And it quickly sprang up, because it had not depth of earth.
6 “But as soon as the Sun was up, it was burnt up. And because it had no root, it withered away.
7 “And some fell among the thorns. And the thorns grew up and choked it, so that it gave no fruit.
8 “Some again fell in good ground, and did yield fruit, that sprang up and grew. And it brought forth - some thirtyfold, some sixtyfold, and some a hundredfold.”
9 Then He said to them, “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”
