Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
72 Give Your judgments to the King, O God, and Your righteousness to the King’s Son.
2 He shall judge Your people in righteousness, and Your poor with equity.
3 The mountains and the hills shall bring peace to the people by justice.
4 He shall judge the poor of the people. He shall save the children of the needy and shall subdue the oppressor.
5 They shall fear You as long as the Sun and Moon endure, from generation to generation.
6 He shall come down like the rain upon the mown grass, as the showers that water the Earth.
7 In His days shall the righteous flourish, and abundance of peace shall be so long as the Moon endures.
18 Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, Who only does wondrous things.
19 And blessed be His glorious Name forever. And let all the Earth be filled with His Glory. So be it, even so be it.
2 On that day, the Branch of the LORD shall be beautiful and glorious. And the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and pleasant for those of Israel who have escaped.
3 Then he who shall be left in Zion, and he who shall remain in Jerusalem, shall be called holy. Everyone in Jerusalem shall be written among the living
4 when the LORD shall wash the filthiness of the daughters of Zion and purge the blood of Jerusalem out of its midst by the spirit of judgment and by the spirit of burning.
5 And the LORD shall create upon every place of Mount Zion, and upon its assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day and the shining of a flaming fire by night. For upon all the Glory shall be a defense.
6 And a covering shall be for shade from the heat during the day, and a place of refuge and a shelter from the storm and from the rain.
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mount that is called ‘Olivet’, which is near Jerusalem, being from it a Sabbath’s journey.
13 And when they had come in, they went up into an upper room, where Peter and James were, and John and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon Zealot, and Judas (James’ brother).
14 These all continued, with one mind, in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers.
15 And in those days, Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said (now the number of names that were in one place were about a hundred and twenty).
16 “You men and brothers, this Scripture, which the Holy Ghost, through David, spoke of Judas (guide to those who took Jesus), must have been fulfilled.
17 “For he was numbered with us and had obtained fellowship in this ministry.
21 “Therefore, of these men who have been with us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
22 “beginning from the baptism of John until the day that He was taken up from us, one of them must be made a fellow witness of His resurrection.”
23 And they presented two: Joseph, called Barsabas (whose surname was Justus) and Matthias.
24 And they prayed, saying, “You Lord, Who knows the hearts of all, show us which of these two You have chosen,
25 “so that he may take the part of this ministry and Apostleship from which Judas has gone astray to go to his own place.”
26 Then they cast their lots. And the lot fell on Matthias. And he was counted with the eleven Apostles.
