M’Cheyne Bible Reading Plan
20 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “You shall also say to the children of Israel, ‘Whoever of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who dwell in Israel, who gives his children to Molech, he shall die the death. The people of the land shall stone him to death.
3 ‘And I will set My Face against that man and cut him off from among his people, because he has given his children to Molech, to defile My Sanctuary and to pollute My Holy Name.
4 ‘And if the people of the land hide their eyes—winking at that man when he gives his children to Molech—and do not kill him,
5 ‘then will I set My Face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off and all that go a whoring after him to commit whoredom with Molech from among their people.
6 ‘If anyone turns after such as work with spirits and after soothsayers, to go a whoring after them, then will I set My Face against that person and will cut him off from among his people.
7 ‘Sanctify yourselves, therefore, and be holy. For I am the LORD your God.
8 ‘Therefore, keep My ordinances and do them. I am the LORD, Who sanctifies you.
9 ‘If anyone curses his father or his mother, he shall die the death. He has cursed his father and his mother. His blood shall be upon him.
10 ‘And the man who commits adultery with another man’s wife, because he has committed adultery with his neighbor’s wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall die the death.
11 ‘And the man who lies with his father’s wife, he has uncovered his father’s nakedness. They shall both die, their blood upon them.
12 ‘Also, the man who lies with his daughter-in-law, they both shall die the death. They have wrought abomination, their blood upon them.
13 ‘Also, the man who lies with the male, as one lies with a woman, they have both committed abomination. They shall die the death, their blood upon them.
14 ‘Likewise, he who takes a wife and her mother commits wickedness. They shall burn him and them with fire, so that there is no wickedness among you.
15 ‘Also, the man who lies with a beast shall die the death. And you shall kill the beast.
16 ‘And if a woman comes to any beast, and lies with it, then you shall kill the woman and the beast. They shall die the death, their blood upon them.
17 ‘Also, if a man takes his sister, his father’s daughter, or his mother’s daughter, and sees her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness, it is wickedness. Therefore, they shall be cut off in the sight of their people. He who uncovered his sister’s shame, he shall bear his iniquity.
18 ‘Also, the man who lies with a woman who has her period, and uncovers her nakedness, opens her fountain, and she opens the fountain of her blood, they shall both be cut off from among their people.
19 ‘Moreover, you shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister or of your father’s sister, because you have uncovered your kin. They shall bear their iniquity.
20 ‘Likewise, the man who lies with his father’s brother’s wife, and uncovers his uncle’s nakedness, they shall bear their iniquity and shall die childless.
21 ‘So, the man who takes his brother’s wife commits filthiness. He has uncovered his brother’s shame. They shall be childless.
22 ‘Therefore, you shall keep all My Ordinances and all My Judgments, and do them, so that the land where I bring you to dwell does not spew you out.
23 ‘Therefore, you shall not walk in the manners of this Nation which I cast out before you. For they have committed all these things. Therefore, I abhorred them.
24 ‘But I have said to you, “You shall inherit their land. And I will give it to you to possess it, a land that flows with milk and honey.” I am the LORD your God, Who has separated you from the people.
25 ‘Therefore, you shall distinguish between clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean birds and clean. You shall not defile yourselves with beast and bird, or with any creeping thing that the ground brings forth which I have separated from you as unclean.
26 ‘Therefore, you shall be holy to Me. For I, the LORD, am holy. And I have separated you from the people, so that you should be Mine.
27 ‘And if a man or woman has a spirit of divination or soothsaying in them, they shall die the death. They shall stone them to death, their blood upon them.’”
25 To You, O LORD, I lift up my soul.
2 My God, I trust in You. Let me not be confounded. Do not let my enemies rejoice over me.
3 So all who hope in You shall not be ashamed. Let those who transgress without cause be confounded.
4 Show me Your ways, O LORD, and teach me Your paths.
5 Lead me forth in Your truth and teach me. For You are the God of my salvation. In You do I trust, all the day.
6 Remember, O LORD, Your tender mercies, and Your lovingkindness. For they have been forever.
7 Do not remember the sins of my youth, nor my rebellions. But according to Your kindness remember me, for Your goodness’ sake, O LORD.
8 Gracious and righteous are the LORD. Therefore, He will teach sinners in the way.
9 Those who are meek, He will guide in judgment and teach the humble His way.
10 All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth to those who keep His covenant and His testimonies.
11 For Your Name’s sake, O LORD, be merciful to my iniquity. For it is great.
12 What man is he who fears the LORD? He will teach him the way he shall choose.
13 His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the land.
14 The secret of the LORD is revealed to those who fear Him, and His Covenant, to give them understanding.
15 My eyes are ever toward the LORD. For He will bring my feet out of the net.
16 Turn Your face to me; and have mercy upon me. For I am desolate and poor.
17 The sorrows of my heart are enlarged. Draw me out of my troubles.
18 Look upon my affliction, and my travail, and forgive all my sins.
19 Behold my enemies, for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.
20 Keep my soul and deliver me. Let me not be confounded; for I trust in You.
21 Let my uprightness and equity preserve me; for my hope is in You.
22 Deliver Israel, O God, out of all its troubles. A Psalm of David.
3 To all things there is an appointed time, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.
2 A time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot that which is planted,
3 a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to break down and a time to build,
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5 a time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones, a time to embrace and a time to be far from embracing,
6 a time to seek and a time to lose, a time to keep and a time to cast away,
7 a time to tear and a time to sow, a time to keep silent and a time to speak,
8 a time to love and a time to hate, a time of war and a time of peace.
9 What profit does the worker have from the thing in which he works?
10 I have seen the work that God has given to the sons of men by which to humble them.
11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set the world in their heart, yet man cannot find out the work that God has done from the beginning to the end.
12 I know that there is nothing better for him than to rejoice, and to do good in his life.
13 And also that every man eats and drinks and sees the good of all his labor. This is the gift of God.
14 I know that whatever God shall do, it shall be forever. No man can add to it, and from it no one can subtract. For God has done it so that they would fear before Him.
15 Whatever has already been, is now. And whatever shall be, has already been. For God requires that which is past.
16 And moreover, I have seen the place of judgment under the Sun, where wickedness was, and the place of justice, where iniquity was.
17 I thought in my heart, “God will judge the just and the wicked. For there is a time for every purpose and for every work.”
18 I considered the state of the children of men in my heart, that God had examined them, so that they too see themselves as beasts.
19 For the condition of the children of men and the condition of beasts is the same, as the one dies so dies the other. For they all have one breath. And there is no excellency of man above beast. For all is vanity.
20 All go to one place. And all were of the dust. And all shall return to the dust.
21 Who knows whether the spirit of man ascends upward, and the spirit of the beast descends downward to the earth?
22 Therefore, I see that there is nothing better than that a man should rejoice in his affairs, because that is his portion. For who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?
5 Do not rebuke an elder, but encourage him as a father, and the younger men as brothers;
2 the elder women as mothers, the younger as sisters, with all pureness.
3 Honor widows which are truly widows.
4 But if any widow has children or nephews, let them learn first to show godliness toward their own house, and to repay their family. For that is an honorable thing, and acceptable before God.
5 And she who is a true widow, and left alone, trusts in God, and continues in supplications and prayers night and day.
6 But she who lives in pleasure is dead while she lives.
7 Therefore, warn them of these things, so that they may be blameless.
8 If there is anyone who does not look out for his own, and namely for those of his household, he denies the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
9 Do not let a widow under 60 years old be registered; who has been the wife of one husband
10 and has a reputation for good works (whether she has nourished her children, taken in strangers, washed the saints’ feet, ministered to those who were in adversity, and if she has constantly pursued every good work).
11 But refuse the younger widows. For when their desires begin to draw them away from Christ, they will marry,
12 having damnation because they have broken their first faith.
13 And also, being idle, they learn to go about from house to house. Indeed, not only are they idle, but also gossips and busybodies, speaking things which are not necessary.
14 Therefore, I desire that the younger women marry, and bear children, and govern the house, and give no opportunity for the adversary to speak evil.
15 For some have already turned back after Satan.
16 If any faithful man or faithful woman has widows, let them minister to them, and do not let the Church be charged, so that there may be enough for those who are true widows.
17 Let the elders who rule well have double the honor, especially those who labor in the Word and doctrine.
18 For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treads out the corn,” and, “The laborer is worthy of his wages.”
19 Receive no accusation against an elder unless by two or three witnesses.
20 Rebuke those who sin openly, so that the rest may also fear.
21 I charge you before God and the Lord Jesus Christ and the elect angels to observe these things, without preferring one to another. And do nothing with partiality.
22 Do not quickly lay hands on anyone or share in the sins of others. Keep yourself pure.
23 Drink water no longer. But use a little wine for your stomach’s sake, and your frequent infirmities.
24 Some men’s sins are evident, preceding them to judgment. But some follow afterward.
25 Likewise, good works are also evident beforehand. And those which are otherwise cannot be hidden.
