Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
31 In You, O LORD, have I put my trust. Let me never be confounded. Deliver me in Your righteousness.
2 Bow down Your ear to me. Make haste to deliver me. Be to me a strong rock, a house of defense to save me.
3 For You are my rock and my fortress. Therefore, direct me and guide me for Your Name’s sake.
4 Draw me out of the net which they have secretly laid for me. For You are my strength.
5 Into Your hand I commend My spirit. For You have redeemed me, O LORD God of Truth.
15 My times are in Your hand. Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, and from those who persecute me.
16 Make Your face to shine upon Your servant. Save me through Your mercy.
20 And there was also a man who prophesied in the Name of the LORD: Urijah, the son of Shemaiah, of Kirjath Jearim; who prophesied against this city and against this land, according to all the words of Jeremiah.
21 Now when Jehoiakim the king, with all his men of power and all the princes, heard his words, the king sought to kill him. But when Urijah heard it, he was afraid and fled, and went into Egypt.
22 Then Jehoiakim the king sent men into Egypt — Elnathan the son of Achbor, and certain with him — into Egypt.
23 And they fetched Urijah out of Egypt and brought him to Jehoiakim the king, who killed him with the sword and cast his dead body into the graves of the children of the people.
24 But the hand of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, was with Jeremiah, so that they would not give him into the hand of the people, to put him to death.
48 Then the Jews answered, and said to Him, “Are we not correct in saying that You are a Samaritan, and have a demon?”
49 Jesus answered, “I have no demon. But I honor My Father. And you have dishonored Me.
50 “And I do not seek My own praise. But there is One Who seeks it, and judges.
51 “Truly, truly I say to you, “If anyone keeps My Word, he shall never see death.”
52 Then the Jews said to Him, “Now we know that You have a demon. Abraham is dead, and the Prophets, and You say, ‘If anyone keeps My Word, he shall never taste of death.
53 “Are You greater than our father, Abraham, who is dead?! And the Prophets are dead! Who do You think You are!?”
54 Jesus answered, “If I honor Myself, My honor is worth nothing. It is My Father Who honors Me; the One you say is your God.
55 “Yet you have not known Him. But I know Him. And if I should say I do not know Him, I would be a liar, like you. But I know Him and keep His word.
56 “Your father, Abraham, rejoiced to see My day. And he saw it and was glad.”
57 Then the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and You have seen Abraham?”
58 Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly I say to you: Before Abraham was, I am.”
59 Then they took up stones to throw at Him. But Jesus hid Himself and went out of the Temple. And He passed through the midst of them, and so went His way.
