Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
29 (Mizmor of Dovid) Ascribe unto Hashem, O ye bnei elim (sons of the mighty), ascribe unto Hashem kavod and oz (strength).
2 Ascribe unto Hashem the Kavod Shmo; worship Hashem in the Hadrat Kodesh (beauty of holiness).
3 The voice of Hashem is upon the waters; El HaKavod thundereth; Hashem is over the mayim rabbim.
4 The voice of Hashem is in Ko’ach; the voice of Hashem is in hadar (majesty).
5 The voice of Hashem breaketh the cedars; Hashem breaketh the cedars of the Levanon.
6 He maketh them also to skip like an egel (calf); Levanon and Siryon, like a young reimim (wild ox).
7 The voice of Hashem hews out with flashes of eish.
8 The voice of Hashem shaketh the midbar; Hashem shaketh the Midbar Kadesh.
9 The voice of Hashem causes the deer to calve, and strips bare the ye’arot (forests); and in His Heikhal doth everyone say, Kavod!
10 Hashem sitteth upon the mabbul (flood); yea, Hashem sitteth enthroned as Melech l’olam.
11 Hashem will give oz (strength) unto His people; Hashem will bless His people with shalom.
2 Now the days of Dovid drew near that he should die; and he charged Sh’lomo Bno, saying,
2 I go the derech kol ha’aretz; be thou chazak therefore, and show thyself a man;
3 And be shomer over the mishmeret (requirement, charge) of Hashem Eloheicha, to walk in His derakhim, to be shomer over His chukkot (decrees), and His mitzvot, and His mishpatim (ordinances), and His edot (testimonies), as it is written in the Torat Moshe, so that thou mayest prosper in all that thou doest, and wherever thou turnest;
4 So that Hashem may uphold His Davar (Word, Promise) which He spoke concerning me, saying, If thy banim are shomer over their derech, to walk before Me in emes with all their lev and with all their nefesh, there shall not yikaret l’cha (be cut off of you, fail thee) Ish on the Kisse Yisroel.
10 So Dovid slept with his avot, and was buried in Ir Dovid.
11 And the yamim that Dovid reigned as Melech over Yisroel were arba’im shanah; sheva shanim reigned he in Chevron, and shloshim v’shalosh shanim reigned he in Yerushalayim.
12 Then sat Sh’lomo upon the Kisse Dovid Aviv; and Malchuso was firmly established.
5 Now it came about that while the multitude was listening to the dvar Hashem and pressing in upon Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach, he had been standing beside Lake Kinneret,
2 And he saw two sirot (boats) having been beside the lake. But the daiyagim (fishermen) had left them and were cleaning the nets.
3 And embarking into one of the sirot which was Shimon’s, Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach asked Shimon to put out from the land a little; and having sat down, from the sirah (boat) to the multitudes Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach was saying shiurim.
4 And when he stopped speaking, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to Shimon, Put out into the deep (water) and let down your nets for a catch.
5 And in reply, Shimon said, Adoni, throughout the whole lailah we have labored and caught nothing. But on account of your dvar I will let down the nets.
6 And having done this, they enclosed asach (a lot of) dagim, and their nets were being torn.
7 And they signaled for their shuttafim (partners) in the other sirah to come and help them. And they came and they filled both sirot (boats) so much that they began to sink.
8 And having seen this, Shimon Kefa fell down before Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach, saying, Depart from me, Adoni, for an ish choteh (sinful man) am I. [BERESHIS 18:27; IYOV 42:6; YESHAYAH 6:5]
9 For astonishment seized Shimon Kefa and all the ones with him on account of the catch of dagim which they took;
10 And likewise also Yaakov and Yochanan the banim of Zavdai, who were business shuttafim (partners) with Shimon. And Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach said to Shimon, Do not be afraid. From now on you will catch bnei Adam.
11 And having left behind the sirot on the shore, they forsook all, and followed him [as talmidim].
