Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)

To the chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A Psalm: a Song.

67 God be gracious unto us, and bless us, [and] cause his face to shine upon us; Selah,

² That thy way may be known upon earth, thy salvation among all nations.

³ Let the peoples praise thee, O God, let all the peoples praise thee.

⁴ Let the nations rejoice and sing for joy: for thou wilt judge the peoples equitably; and the nations upon earth, thou wilt guide them. Selah.

⁵ Let the peoples praise thee, O God; let all the peoples praise thee.

⁶ The earth will yield her increase; God, our God, will bless us:

⁷ God will bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.

2 My son, if thou receivest my words, and layest up my commandments with thee,

² so that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom [and] thou apply thy heart to understanding;

³ yea, if thou criest after discernment [and] liftest up thy voice to understanding;

⁴ if thou seekest her as silver and searchest for her as for hidden treasures:

⁵ then shalt thou understand the fear of Jehovah, and find the knowledge of God.

³⁶ But after certain days Paul said to Barnabas, Let us return now and visit the brethren in every city where we have announced the word of the Lord, [and see] how they are getting on.

³⁷ And Barnabas proposed to take with [them] John also, called Mark;

³⁸ but Paul thought it not well to take with them him who had abandoned them, [going back] from Pamphylia, and had not gone with them to the work.

³⁹ There arose therefore very warm feeling, so that they separated from one another; and Barnabas taking Mark sailed away to Cyprus;

⁴⁰ but Paul having chosen Silas went forth, committed by the brethren to the grace of God.

⁴¹ And he passed through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the assemblies.
