Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
22 ¶ Then Solomon stood before (A)the altar of the Lord in the sight of all the Congregation of Israel, and stretched out his hands toward heaven,
23 And said, O Lord God of Israel, there is no God like thee in heaven above, or in the earth beneath, thou that keepest covenant and mercy with thy servants that walk before thee, with [a]all their heart,
41 Moreover as touching the [a]stranger that is not of thy people Israel, who shall come out of a far country for thy Name’s sake,
42 (When they shall hear of thy great Name, and of thy mighty hand, and of thy stretched out arm) and shall come and pray in this house,
43 Hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger calleth for unto thee: that all the people of the earth may know thy Name, and fear thee, as do thy people Israel: and that they may know that thy [b]Name is called upon in this house which I have built.
96 1 An exhortation both to the Jews and Gentiles to praise God for his mercy. And this specially ought to be referred to the kingdom of Christ.
1 Sing [a]unto the Lord a new song: sing unto the Lord all the earth.
2 Sing unto the Lord, and praise his Name: declare his salvation from day to day.
3 Declare his glory among all nations, and his wonders among all people.
4 For the Lord is [b]great and much to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.
5 For all the gods of the people are [c]idols: but the Lord [d]made the heavens.
6 [e]Strength and glory are before him: power and beauty are in his Sanctuary.
7 Give unto the Lord, ye families of the people: give unto the Lord glory and [f]power.
8 Give unto the Lord the glory of his Name: bring [g]an offering, and enter into his courts.
9 Worship the Lord in the glorious Sanctuary: tremble before him all the earth.
The Epistle of the Apostle Paul to the Galatians
1 1 Straight after the salutation, 6 He reprehendeth the Galatians for revolting, 9 from his Gospel, 15 which he received from God, 17 before he had communicated with any of the Apostles.
1 Paul [a]an Apostle (not [b]of men, neither by [c]man, (A)but by [d]Jesus Christ, and God the Father which hath raised him from the dead.)
2 And all the brethren which are with me unto the Churches of Galatia:
3 Grace be with you, and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
4 [e]Which gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us (B)from this present evil [f]world according to the will of God even our Father,
5 To whom be glory forever and ever, Amen.
6 [g]I marvel that ye are so soon [h]removed away unto another Gospel, from him that had called you in the grace of Christ,
7 [i]Which is not another Gospel, save that there be some which trouble you, and intend to [j]pervert the Gospel of Christ.
8 But though that we, or an Angel from heaven preach unto you otherwise than that which we have preached unto you, let him be [k]accursed.
9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach unto you otherwise than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
10 [l]For now preach I [m]man’s doctrine, or God’s? or go I about to please men? for if I should yet please men, I were not the servant of Christ.
11 (C)[n]Now I certify you, brethren, that the Gospel which was preached of me, was not after man.
12 For neither received I it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the [o]revelation of Jesus Christ.
7 1 Of the Centurion’s servant. 9 The Centurion’s faith. 11 The widow’s son raised from death at Nain. 19 John sendeth his disciples to Christ. 33 His peculiar kind of living. 37 The sinful woman washeth Jesus’ feet.
1 When (A)[a]he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
2 And a certain Centurion’s servant was sick and ready to die, which was dear unto him.
3 And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the Elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come, and heal his servant.
4 So they came to Jesus, and besought him instantly, saying that he was worthy that he should do this for him:
5 For he loveth, said they, our nation, and he hath built us a Synagogue.
6 Then Jesus went with them: but when he was now not far from the house, the Centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof:
7 Wherefore I thought not myself worthy to come unto thee: but say the word, and my servant shall be whole:
8 For I likewise am a man set under authority, and have under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth: and to another, Come, and he cometh: and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
9 When Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned him, and said to the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no not in Israel.
10 And when they that were sent, turned back to the house, they found the servant that was sick, whole.
