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.

3 And the na’ar Shmuel ministered unto Hashem before Eli. And the Devar Hashem was yakar (precious, dear, rare) in those days; there was no chazon nifratz ([prophetic] vision open, spread out, common, i.e., prophetic vision was uncommon).

² And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was lying down in his makom (his eyes had began to grow dim, that he could not see);

³ And the Ner Elohim had not yet gone out in the Heikhal Hashem, where the Aron Elohim was, and Shmuel was lying down;

⁴ That Hashem called Shmuel; and he answered, Hineni.

⁵ And he ran unto Eli, and said, Hineni; for thou calledst me. And he said, I called not; lie down again. And he went and lay down.

⁶ And Hashem called yet again, Shmuel. And Shmuel got up and went to Eli, and said, Hineni; for thou didst call me. And he answered, I called not, beni; lie down again.

⁷ Now Shmuel did not yet know Hashem; the Devar Hashem was not yet revealed unto him [See Yn 1:1,14).

⁸ And Hashem called Shmuel again the third time. And he got up and went to Eli, and said, Hineni; for thou didst call me. And Eli perceived that Hashem was calling the na’ar.

⁹ Therefore Eli said unto Shmuel, Go, lie down; and it shall be, if He call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, Hashem; for Thy eved (servant) shomei’a (is listening). So Shmuel went and lay down in his makom.

¹³ But we ought always to offer hodayah (thankgiving) and make brachot to Hashem concerning you, Achim b’Moshiach, ahuvei Hashem, because Hashem chose you as bikkurim (first fruits) for the Geulah through mekudash b’Ruach HaKodesh (being set apart as holy in the Ruach HaKodesh) and through emunah in HaEmes.

¹⁴ This is HaEmes to which Hashem called you through our Besuras HaGeulah to the obtaining of the kavod of Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach Adoneinu Yehoshua.

¹⁵ So then, Achim b’Moshiach, stand fast and hold fast to the [orthodox Jewish] emunah, the Moshiach’s pnimiyus hatorah that was handed over and transmitted to you, which you were taught, whether by divrei pinu (words of our mouth) or by our iggeret hakodesh.

¹⁶ Now may HaMelech HaMoshiach Yehoshua Adoneinu Himself and Elohim Avinu, who has regarded us with ahavah (agape), and has granted us nechamat olam (eternal consolation) and tikvah tovah (good hope) by the unmerited Chesed of Hashem

¹⁷ May He give chozek (strength) and encouragement to you in every mitzvah (good deed) you do and in every dibur (utterance) you speak.

3 Lemaskana (finally), Achim b’Moshiach, daven for us, that the Dvar Hashem will run on and be lifted up in kavod, just as it is also with you,

² And that we may be delivered from anshei resha (men of wickedness), for not all possess the Messianic emunah.

³ But Ne’eman (Faithful) is Hashem who gives you chozek (strength) and is shomer over you, guarding you from the Evil One.

⁴ And we have bitachon in Hashem concerning you, that you are doing and will continue to do what we have directed.

⁵ Now may Hashem direct your levavot in the Ahavas Hashem and into the zitzfleisch of Moshiach.
