Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
10 Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her: be filled with joy with her, all ye that mourn for her:
11 That ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye may milk out, and be delighted with the splendour of her glory.
12 For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream; then shall ye suck, ye shall be borne upon her sides, and be dandled upon her knees.
13 As a man child whom his mother comforts, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
14 And ye shall see, your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like grass; and the hand of the LORD shall be known toward his slaves and his indignation toward his enemies.
To the Overcomer, A Song or Psalm.
1 ¶ Make a joyful noise unto God, all the earth;
2 sing forth the glory of his name; put glory into thy praise.
3 Say unto God, How terrible art thou in thy works! Through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.
4 All the earth shall worship thee and shall sing unto thee; they shall sing to thy name. Selah.
5 Come and see the works of God; he is terrible in his doing toward the sons of men.
6 He turned the sea into dry land; they went through the river on foot; there did we rejoice in him.
7 He rules by his power for ever; his eyes watch the Gentiles; the rebellious shall not exalt themselves. Selah.
8 ¶ O bless our God, ye peoples, and make the voice of his praise to be heard.
9 It is he who placed our soul into life and did not suffer our feet to slip.
6 ¶ Brethren, if anyone is overtaken in a fault, ye who are spiritual restore such a one in the spirit of meekness, considering thyself lest thou also be tempted.
2 Bear ye one another’s burdens and so fulfil the law of the Christ.
3 For if anyone thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
4 But let everyone prove his own work, and then he shall have glory regarding only himself, and not in another.
5 For everyone shall bear his own burden.
6 Let the one that is taught in the word communicate unto the one that teaches in all good things.
7 Do not deceive yourselves; God is not mocked: for whatever a man sows that shall he also reap.
8 For he that sows to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption, but he that sows in the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap eternal life.
9 And let us not be weary in well doing, for in due season we shall reap if we faint not.
10 Therefore as long as we have the opportunity, let us do good unto everyone, especially unto those who are of the household of faith.
11 ¶ Ye see how large a letter I have written unto you with my own hand.
12 As many as desire to please in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised, only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross {Gr. stauros – stake} of the Christ.
13 For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law, but desire to have you circumcised that they may glory in your flesh.
14 But in no wise should I glory, except in the cross {Gr. stauros – stake} of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.
15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision avails any thing nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
10 ¶ After these things the Lord appointed another seventy also and sent them two by two before his face into every city and place where he himself would come.
2 Therefore he said unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few; pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.
3 Go; behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.
4 Carry neither purse nor provision bag nor shoes, and greet no one on the way.
5 And into whatever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.
6 And if indeed there is a son of peace there, your peace shall rest upon it; if not, it shall turn to you again.
7 And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give, for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.
8 And into whatever city ye enter and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you
9 and heal the sick that are therein and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come near unto you.
10 But into whatever city ye enter and they receive you not, go out into the streets of the same and say,
11 Even the very dust of your city which cleaves on us we do wipe off against you; notwithstanding be ye sure of this that the kingdom of God is come near unto you.
16 He that hears you hears me, and he that despises you despises me, and he that despises me despises him that sent me.
17 ¶ And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject unto us in thy name.
18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20 Notwithstanding, rejoice not in this, that the spirits are subject unto you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in the heavens.
