Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
1 ¶ O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name; make known his deeds among the peoples.
2 Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him; speak of all his wondrous works.
3 Glory in his holy name; let the heart of those that seek the LORD rejoice.
4 Seek the LORD and his strength; seek his face continually.
5 Remember his marvellous works that he has done, his wonders and the judgments of his mouth,
6 O ye seed of Abraham his slave, ye sons of Jacob his chosen.
7 He is the LORD our God; his judgments are in all the earth.
8 ¶ He has remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded for a thousand generations,
9 which covenant he made with Abraham and his oath unto Isaac
10 and confirmed the same unto Jacob by decree, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant:
11 Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance,
37 And he brought them forth with silver and gold, and there was not one sick person among their tribes.
38 Egypt was glad when they departed, for the fear of them fell upon them.
39 He spread a cloud for a covering and fire to give light in the night.
40 The people asked, and he brought quails and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
41 He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places and became a river.
42 For he remembered his holy word with Abraham his slave.
43 And he brought forth his people with joy and his chosen with singing
44 and gave them the lands of the Gentiles, and they inherited the labour of the nations,
45 that they might observe his statutes and keep his laws. Halelu-JAH.
10 Hear, O my son, and receive my words, and the years of thy life shall be multiplied.
11 I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have caused thee to walk in right paths.
12 When thou goest in these paths, thy steps shall not be hindered; and when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble.
13 Take fast hold of chastening; do not let go; keep this; for it is thy life.
14 ¶ Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men.
15 Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away.
16 For they do not sleep, unless they have done evil; and their sleep is taken away, unless they cause someone to fall.
17 For they eat the bread of wickedness, and drink the wine of violence.
18 But the path of the just is as the light of the morning star, that shines more and more until the day is perfect.
19 The way of the wicked is as darkness; they do not know in what they stumble.
20 ¶ My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my words.
21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.
22 For they are life unto those that find them and medicine to all their flesh.
23 Above all else, guard thy heart; for out of it flows the issues of life.
24 Put away from thee the perversion of the mouth, and the deviation of the lips put far from thee.
25 Let thine eyes look upon that which is right, and let thine eyelids straighten thy path before thee.
26 Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established.
27 Turn not to the right hand nor to the left; remove thy foot from evil.
12 ¶ And it came to pass in those days that he went out into the mountain to pray and continued all night in prayer to God.
13 And when it was day, he called unto him his disciples; and of them he chose twelve, whom he also named apostles:
14 Simon (whom he also named Peter) and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,
15 Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus and Simon called Zelotes
16 and Judas the brother of James and Judas Iscariot, who also was the traitor.
17 And he came down with them and stood in the plain, and the company of his disciples and a great multitude of people out of all Judaea and Jerusalem and from the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him and to be healed of their diseases;
18 and those that were tormented with unclean spirits were healed.
19 And the whole multitude sought to touch him, for there went virtue out of him and healed them all.
