Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
Nations Praise God
67 May God show loving-kindness toward us and bring good to us. May He make His face shine upon us. 2 May Your way be known on the earth, and Your saving power among all nations. 3 May the people praise You, O God. May all the people praise You. 4 May the nations be glad and sing for joy. For You will be fair when You judge the people and rule the nations of the earth. 5 May the people praise You, O God. May all the people praise You. 6 The earth has given its fruit. God, our God, will bring good to us. 7 God will bring good to us, and all the ends of the earth will fear Him.
All Nations Can Be Saved
56 The Lord says, “Hold on to what is right and fair. Do what is right and good. My saving power will soon come, and I will show what is right. 2 How happy is the man who does this, and the son of man who takes hold of it! How happy is he who keeps the Day of Rest holy, and keeps his hand from doing wrong.” 3 Let not the man from a strange land who has joined the Lord say, “For sure the Lord will keep me away from His people.” Let not the man who had been made so that he could not have children say, “See, I am a dry tree.” 4 To these the Lord says, “If these servants keep My Days of Rest and choose what pleases Me, and hold on to My agreement, 5 I will give them something in My house and within My walls to be remembered. I will give them a name better than that of sons and daughters, a name that will be forever and never be cut off.
People Are Healed at Gennesaret (A)
34 When they had gone over to the other side, they came to the land of Gennesaret. 35 When the men of that land saw it was Jesus, they sent word into all the country around. They brought all who were sick to Jesus. 36 They begged Him that they might touch the bottom of His coat. As many as touched the bottom of His coat were healed.
