Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)

3 (A psalm of Dovid, when he fled from Avshalom bno) Hashem, how are they increased that are my foes! Many are they that rise up against me.

^2 (3) Many there be which say of my nefesh, There is no yeshuah for him in Elohim. Selah.

^3 (4) But Thou, Hashem, art a mogen around me; my kavod, and the One who lifts up mine head.

^4 (5) I cried unto Hashem with my voice, and He heard me out of His Har Kodesh. Selah.

^5 (6) I laid me down and slept; I awaked, for Hashem sustains me.

^6 (7) I will not be afraid of ten thousands of am (people), that have set themselves against me round about.

^7 (8) Arise, Hashem; hoshieini (save me), O Elohai; for Thou hast struck all mine enemies upon the cheekbone; Thou hast broken the teeth of the resha’im.

^8 (9) HaYeshuah (salvation) belongeth unto Hashem; the Birkhat (blessing) of Thee is upon Thy people. Selah.

¹² Hoy (Woe) to him that buildeth a town with [shefach] dahm, and foundeth a city by iniquity!

¹³ Hinei, is it not from Hashem Tzva’os that the people shall labor only to feed the eish, and the people shall weary themselves in vain?

¹⁴ For the earth shall be filled with the da’as of the kavod Hashem, as the waters cover the yam.

¹⁵ Hoy (Woe) unto him that giveth his neighbor drink, pressing thy bottle to him, and makest him drunken also, that thou mayest look on their nakedness!

¹⁶ Thou art filled with shame instead of kavod; drink thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncovered; the kos of Hashem’s right hand shall be turned against thee, and utter shame shall be on thy kavod.

¹⁷ For the chamas of the Levanon shall cover thee, and the decimation of animals, by which you terrorized them, because of [shefach] dahm, and for the chamas eretz, and to the city, and all that dwell therein.

¹⁸ What profiteth the pesel (graven image) that the maker thereof hath shaped it; the molten image, and moreh sheker, that the maker of his work trusteth therein, to make dumb elilim (idols)?

¹⁹ Hoy (woe) unto him that saith to the wood, Awake; to the dumb even (stone), Arise, it shall teach! Hinei, it is laid over with zahav and kesef, and there is no ruach at all in it.

²⁰ But Hashem is in His Heikhal Kodesh; let kol ha’aretz keep silence before Him.

¹² And on the next day, when they came from Beit-Anyah, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was hungry.

¹³ And having seen in the distance an etz te’enah (fig tree) in leaf, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach approached it to see whether he might find pri (fruit) on it. But when he came to it, he found nothing except leaves. For it was not the te’enim season.

¹⁴ And in reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to it, May no one ever be nourished from pri from you again! And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach’s talmidim were listening.

²⁰ And in the boker (morning), early, as they passed by, they saw the etz teenah (fig tree) having been withered from [the] roots.

²¹ And, having remembered, Shimon Kefa says to him, Rebbe, look, the etz teenah (fig tree) which you cursed has been withered.

²² And in reply Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to them, Have emunah in Hashem.

²³ Omein, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, be lifted up and be thrown into the sea, and does not waver in his lev (heart) but has emunah that what he says happens, so it will be for him.

²⁴ For this reason, I say to you, everything for which you daven (pray), everything you request in tefillos (prayers), have emunah (faith) that you have received it, and so it will be for you.
