Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
32 Blessed is he whose wickedness is forgiven; whose sin is covered.
2 Blessed is the man to whom the LORD does not impute iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.
3 When I held my tongue (my bones being consumed when I roared all day,
4 for Your hand is heavy upon me day and night) and my moisture turned into the drought of Summer (Selah),
5 I acknowledged my sin to You and did not hide my iniquity. I thought, “I will confess to the LORD my wickedness against myself.” And You forgave the punishment of my sin. Selah.
6 Therefore, everyone who is godly shall make his prayer to You in a time when You may be found. Surely, in the flood of great waters they shall not come near him.
7 You are my Secret Place. You preserve me from trouble. You surround me with joyful deliverance. Selah.
8 “I will instruct you and teach you in the way that you shall go. I will guide you with My eye.
9 “Be not like a horse, or like a mule, which do not understand; whose mouths you bind with bit and bridle, lest they come near you.”
10 Many sorrows shall come to the wicked. But he who trusts in the LORD, mercy shall surround him.
11 Be glad, you righteous, and rejoice in the LORD; and be joyful, all you who are upright in heart!
34 And the LORD said to Moses, “Carve for yourself two Tablets of stone, like the first. And I will write upon the Tablets the words that were on the first Tablets which you broke in pieces.
2 “And be ready in the morning, so that you may come up to Mount Sinai early; and wait there for Me on the top of the mount.
3 “But let no man come up with you. And do not let any man be seen throughout all the mount. And do not let the sheep or cattle feed before this mount.
4 Then Moses carved two Tablets of stone like the first. And he rose up early in the morning and went up to Mount Sinai, as the LORD had commanded him, and took the two Tablets of stone in his hand.
5 And the LORD descended in the cloud and stood with him there and proclaimed the Name of the LORD.
6 So the LORD passed before his face, and cried, “The LORD! The LORD! Strong! Merciful! Gracious! Slow to anger! Abundant in goodness and Truth!
7 Reserving mercy for thousands! Forgiving iniquity, transgression and sin! Not making the wicked innocent! Visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and upon children’s children, to the third and fourth generation!”
8 Then Moses quickly bowed himself to the earth, and worshipped,
9 and said, “O Lord, I pray—if I have found grace in Your sight—that the LORD would now go with us (for we are a stiff-necked people) and pardon our iniquity and our sin and take us for Your inheritance.”
27 And the LORD said to Moses, “Write these Words. For according to the tenor of these Words I have made a Covenant with you and with Israel.”
28 So, he was there with the LORD for forty days and forty nights, neither eating bread nor drinking water. And he wrote the Words of the Covenant, the Ten Commandments, on the Tablets.
10 “See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I say to you that, in Heaven, their angels always behold the face of My Father Who is in Heaven.
11 “For the Son of Man has come to save that which was lost.
12 “What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine, and go into the mountains, and seek those which have gone astray?
13 “And if he finds it? Truly I say to you, he rejoices more over that sheep than over the ninety-nine which did not go astray.
14 “Nor is it the will of your Father Who is in Heaven that one of these little ones should perish.
