Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
15 LORD, who shall dwell in Your Tabernacle? Who shall rest on Your Holy Mountain?
2 He who walks uprightly and works righteousness and speaks the truth in his heart;
3 he who does not slander with his tongue, nor do evil to his neighbor, nor receive a false report against his neighbor;
4 in whose eyes a vile person is despised; but honors those who fear the LORD. He who swears to his own injury yet does not change.
5 He who does not give his money to usury, nor takes reward against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be moved. Michtam of David.
17 “You shall not pervert the right of the stranger or of the fatherless, nor take a widow’s clothes to pledge.
18 “But remember that you were a servant in Egypt, and how the LORD your God delivered you from there. Therefore, I command you to do this thing.
19 “When you cut down your harvest in your field, and have forgotten a sheaf in the field, you shall not go back to fetch it. It shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow, so that the LORD your God may bless you in all the works of your hands.
20 “When you beat your olive tree, you shall not go over the boughs again. It shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
21 “When you gather your vineyard, you shall not glean afterward. They shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
22 “And remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt. Therefore, I command you to do this thing.”
25 “When there shall be strife between men, and they shall come to judgment, and sentence shall be given upon them, and the righteous shall be justified, and the wicked condemned,
2 “then, if the wicked is worthy to be beaten, the judge shall cause him to lie down and to be beaten before his face, according to his trespass, to a certain number.
3 “Forty shall he cause him to have, and not past, lest if he should exceed and beat him above that with many stripes, your brother should be dishonored.
4 “You shall not muzzle the ox that treads out the corn.
17 Let the elders who rule well have double the honor, especially those who labor in the Word and doctrine.
18 For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treads out the corn,” and, “The laborer is worthy of his wages.”
19 Receive no accusation against an elder unless by two or three witnesses.
20 Rebuke those who sin openly, so that the rest may also fear.
21 I charge you before God and the Lord Jesus Christ and the elect angels to observe these things, without preferring one to another. And do nothing with partiality.
22 Do not quickly lay hands on anyone or share in the sins of others. Keep yourself pure.
23 Drink water no longer. But use a little wine for your stomach’s sake, and your frequent infirmities.
24 Some men’s sins are evident, preceding them to judgment. But some follow afterward.
