Psalm 81

81 A psalm for Asaph. God hath stood in the congregation of gods: and being in the midst of them he judgeth gods.

How long will you judge unjustly: and accept the persons of the wicked?

Judge for the needy and fatherless: do justice to the humble and the poor.

Rescue the poor; and deliver the needy out of the hand of the sinner.

They have not known nor understood: they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be moved.

I have said: You are gods and all of you the sons of the most High.

But you like men shall die: and shall fall like one of the princes.

Arise, O God, judge thou the earth: for thou shalt inherit among all the nations.

Leviticus 23:1-8

23 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: These are the feasts of the Lord, which you shall call holy.

Six days shall ye do work: the seventh day, because it is the rest of the sabbath, shall be called holy. You shall do no work on that day: it is the sabbath of the Lord in all your habitations.

These also are the holy days of the Lord, which you must celebrate in their seasons.

The first month, the fourteenth day of the month at evening, is the phase of the Lord:

And the fifteenth day of the same month is the solemnity of the unleavened bread of the Lord. Seven days shall you eat unleavened bread.

The first day shall be most solemn unto you, and holy: you shall do no servile work therein:

But you shall offer sacrifice in fire to the Lord seven days. And the seventh day shall be more solemn, and more holy: and you shall do no servile work therein.

Romans 8:31-39

31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who is against us?

32 He that spared not even his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how hath he not also, with him, given us all things?

33 Who shall accuse against the elect of God? God that justifieth.

34 Who is he that shall condemn? Christ Jesus that died, yea that is risen also again; who is at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

35 Who then shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation? or distress? or famine? or nakedness? or danger? or persecution? or the sword?

36 (As it is written: For thy sake we are put to death all the day long. We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.)

37 But in all these things we overcome, because of him that hath loved us.

38 For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor might,

39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
