Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
138 I will praise You with my whole heart; before the gods I will praise You.
2 I will worship toward Your Holy Temple, and praise Your Name, because of Your lovingkindness and for Your Truth; for You have magnified Your Name by Your Word above all things.
3 When I called, then You heard me and increased strength in my soul.
4 All the kings of the Earth shall praise You, O LORD; for they have heard the words of Your mouth.
5 And they shall sing of the ways of the LORD, because the Glory of the LORD is great.
6 For the LORD is high, yet He beholds the lowly; but He knows the proud afar off.
7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me. You will stretch forth Your hand upon the wrath of my enemies; and Your right hand shall save me.
8 The LORD will perform toward me. O LORD, Your mercy endures forever! Do not forsake the works of Your hands. To him who excels: A Psalm of David
33 ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: “On the day that I shall have cleansed you from all your iniquities, I will cause you to dwell in the cities; and the desolate places shall be built.
34 “And the desolate land shall be tilled instead of laying waste in the sight of all who pass by.
35 “For they said, ‘This waste land is like the Garden of Eden. And these once waste and desolate and ruinous cities are strong and inhabited.’
36 “Then the rest of the heathen who are left all around you shall know that I, the LORD, build the ruinous places and plant the desolate places. I, the LORD, have spoken it and will do it.”
37 ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: “I will also allow for this to be sought by the House of Israel, to perform it to them: I will increase them with men like a flock.
38 “As the holy flock, as the flock of Jerusalem in their solemn feasts, so shall the desolate cities be filled with flocks of men. And they shall know that I am the LORD.”’”
5 And when His disciples had come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread.
6 Then Jesus said to them, “Watch, and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, “It is because we have brought no bread.”
8 But Jesus, knowing it, said to them, “O, you of little faith. Why are you thinking among yourselves, ‘because you have brought no bread’?”
9 Do you still not perceive or remember the five loaves - when there were five thousand - and how many baskets did you take up;
10 “or the seven loaves - when there were four thousand - and how many baskets did you take up?
11 “How do you not understand that what I said to you was not concerning bread, but that you should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees?”
12 Then they understood that He had not said that they should beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
