Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
Make Your Face Shine upon Us
To the choirmaster: with (A)stringed instruments. A Psalm. A Song.
67 May God (B)be gracious to us and bless us
and make his face to (C)shine upon us, Selah
2 that (D)your way may be known on earth,
your (E)saving power among all nations.
3 (F)Let the peoples praise you, O God;
let all the peoples praise you!
4 Let the nations be glad and sing for joy,
for you (G)judge the peoples with equity
and guide the nations upon earth. Selah
5 (H)Let the peoples praise you, O God;
let all the peoples praise you!
6 The earth has (I)yielded its increase;
God, our God, shall bless us.
7 God shall bless us;
let (J)all the ends of the earth fear him!
The Value of Wisdom
2 (A)My son, (B)if you receive my words
and treasure up my commandments with you,
2 making your ear attentive to wisdom
and inclining your heart to understanding;
3 yes, if you call out for insight
and raise your voice (C)for understanding,
4 if you seek it like (D)silver
and search for it as for (E)hidden treasures,
5 then (F)you will understand the fear of the Lord
and find the knowledge of God.
Paul and Barnabas Separate
36 And after some days Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us return and visit (A)the brothers (B)in every city where we proclaimed the word of the Lord, and see how they are.” 37 Now Barnabas wanted to take with them (C)John called Mark. 38 But Paul thought best not to take with them one (D)who had withdrawn from them in Pamphylia and had not gone with them to the work. 39 And there arose (E)a sharp disagreement, so that they separated from each other. (F)Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed away to Cyprus, 40 but Paul chose Silas and departed, (G)having been commended by (H)the brothers to (I)the grace of the Lord. 41 And he went through Syria and Cilicia, (J)strengthening the churches.
