The Way of Wisdom
9 (A)Wisdom has built her house;
she has hewn her (B)seven (C)pillars.
2 She has (D)slaughtered her beasts; she has (E)mixed her wine;
she has also (F)set her table.
3 She has (G)sent out her young women to (H)call
from (I)the highest places in the town,
4 (J)“Whoever is simple, let him turn in here!”
(K)To him who lacks sense she says,
5 “Come, (L)eat of my bread
and (M)drink of (N)the wine I have mixed.
6 Leave (O)your simple ways,[a] and (P)live,
(Q)and walk in the way of insight.”

Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene
9 [[Now when he rose early on the first day of the week, (A)he appeared first to (B)Mary Magdalene, (C)from whom he had cast out seven demons. 10 (D)She went and told those who had been with him, (E)as they (F)mourned and wept. 11 But when they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, they (G)would not believe it.
Jesus Appears to Two Disciples
12 (H)After these things (I)he appeared in (J)another form to two of them, as they were walking into the country. 13 (K)And they went back and told the rest, but they did not believe them.
The Great Commission
14 Afterwards (L)he appeared (M)to the eleven themselves as they were reclining at table, and he rebuked them for their (N)unbelief and (O)hardness of heart, because (P)they had not believed those who saw him after he had risen. 15 And he said to them, (Q)“Go into all the world and (R)proclaim the gospel to (S)the whole creation. 16 (T)Whoever believes and is (U)baptized (V)will be saved, but (W)whoever (X)does not believe will be condemned. 17 And (Y)these signs will accompany those who believe: (Z)in my name they will cast out demons; (AA)they will speak in new tongues; 18 (AB)they will pick up serpents with their hands; and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; (AC)they will lay their hands (AD)on the sick, and they will recover.”
