Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
105 O give thanks unto Hashem; call upon Shmo; make known His deeds among the amim.
2 Sing unto Him, sing praise unto Him; talk ye of all His nifle’ot (wondrous works).
3 Glory ye in the Shem Kadosh of Him; let the lev of them that seek Hashem be glad.
4 Seek Hashem, and His oz (strength); seek His face tamid.
5 Remember His nifla’ot (marvellous works) that He hath done; His mofetim (wonders), and the mishpatim of His mouth;
6 O ye zera Avraham His eved, ye Bnei Ya’akov His Bechirim (chosen ones).
7 He is Hashem Eloheinu; His mishpatim are in kol ha’aretz.
8 He hath remembered His Brit l’olam, the Dvar which He commanded to an elef dor (a thousand generations)
9 Which Brit He made with Avraham, and His shevu’ah (oath) unto Yitzchak;
10 And confirmed the same unto Ya’akov for a chok (decree), and to Yisroel as Brit Olam;
11 Saying, Unto thee will I give Eretz Kena’an, the chevel (lot, portion) of your nachalah.
37 He brought them forth also with kesef and zahav; and there was not one stumbling among His Shvatim (tribes).
38 Mitzrayim was glad when they departed; for the pachad (terror, dread) of them had fallen upon them.
39 He spread an anan for a curtain; and eish to give light in the lailah.
40 The people asked, and He brought slav (quails), and satisfied them with the lechem Shomayim.
41 He opened the Tzur, and the mayim gushed out; it ran in the dry places like a nahar.
42 For He remembered His Davar Kadosh, and Avraham His eved.
43 And He brought forth His people with sasson, and His chosen with joyful shouts;
44 And gave them the lands of the Goyim; and they inherited the amal (labor, toil) of the amim;
45 That they might be shomer over His chukkot, and observe His torot (laws). Praise Hashem.
1 Now after the mot Moshe Eved Hashem it came to pass, that Hashem spoke unto Yehoshua ben Nun, mesharet Moshe, saying,
2 Moshe Avdi is dead; now therefore arise, cross over this Yarden, thou, and kol HaAm Hazeh, unto HaAretz which I do give to them, even to the Bnei Yisroel.
3 Every place that the sole of your regel shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, just as I said unto Moshe.
4 From the midbar and this Levanon even unto the Nahar Hagadol, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Chittim, and unto the Yam HaGadol toward the going down of the shemesh, shall be your territory.
5 There shall not any ish be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life; as I was with Moshe, so I will be with thee; I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
6 Chazak! (be strong!) And be of good courage: for unto HaAm Hazeh shalt thou divide for a nachalah HaAretz, which I swore unto their avot to give them.
7 Only chazak (be strong) and very courageous, that thou mayest be shomer to do according to kol HaTorah, which Moshe Avdi commanded thee; turn not from it to the yamin or to the semol, in order that thou mayest succeed everywhere thou goest.
8 This Sefer HaTorah shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate on it yomam valailah so that thou mayest be shomer to do according to all that is written therein; for then thou shalt make thy derech prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
9 Have not I commanded thee? Chazak! And be of good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed; for Hashem Eloheicha is with thee everywhere thou goest.
10 Then Yehoshua commanded the Shotrei HaAm, saying,
11 Pass through the machaneh, and command HaAm, saying, Prepare you supplies; for within shloshet yamim ye shall pass over this Yarden, to go in to possess HaAretz, which Hashem Eloheichem giveth you to possess it.
3 Therefore, when we could no longer endure it, we resolved to be left behind alone in Athens.
2 Also we sent Timotiyos, acheinu and fellow po’el of Hashem in the Besuras HaGeulah of Moshiach. We sent Timotiyos in order to give you chozek (strength) and to speak divrei chizzuk to you on behalf of our [orthodox Jewish] Emunah [of the true Dat haYehudit].
3 This was for the tachlis that no one be unsettled because of ES TZARAH. For you yourselves have da’as that we have a divine calendar date with ES TZARAH.
4 For, hinei, when we were with you, we kept telling you beforehand that we were going to suffer redifah, just as also it came to pass, of which you have da’as.
5 For this reason, when I could no longer endure it, I sent in order to know your emunah, lest somehow [Hasatan Samma’el] the Tempter [HaMenasseh] had ensnared you by nissayon and our labor should be for nothing.
