Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
Israel’s Rebelliousness and the Lord’s Help.
106 [a]Praise [b]the Lord!
Oh (A)give thanks to the Lord, for He (B)is good;
For (C)His mercy is everlasting.
2 Who can speak of the (D)mighty deeds of the Lord,
Or can proclaim all His praise?
3 How blessed are those who maintain [c]justice,
[d]Who (E)practice righteousness at all times!
4 Remember me, Lord, in Your (F)favor [e]toward Your people.
Visit me with Your salvation,
5 So that I may see the (G)prosperity of Your chosen ones,
That I may (H)rejoice in the joy of Your nation,
That I may (I)boast with Your [f]inheritance.

13 They quickly (A)forgot His works;
They (B)did not wait for His plan,
14 But (C)became lustfully greedy in the wilderness,
And (D)put God to the test in the desert.
15 So He (E)gave them their request,
But (F)sent a [a]wasting disease among them.
16 When they became (G)envious of Moses in the camp,
And of Aaron, the holy one of the Lord,
17 The (H)earth opened and swallowed up Dathan,
And engulfed the [b]company of Abiram.
18 And a (I)fire blazed up in their [c]company;
The flame consumed the wicked.
19 They (J)made a calf in Horeb,
And worshiped a cast metal image.
20 So they (K)exchanged their glory
For the image of an ox that eats grass.
21 They (L)forgot God their Savior,
Who had done (M)great things in Egypt,
22 [d](N)Wonders in the land of Ham,
And awesome things by the [e]Red Sea.
23 Therefore (O)He said that He would destroy them,
If (P)Moses, His chosen one, had not stood in the gap before Him,
To turn away His wrath from destroying them.

9 “Only (A)be careful for yourself and watch over your soul diligently, so that you do not forget the things which your eyes have seen and they do not depart from your heart (B)all the days of your life; but (C)make them known to your sons and your grandsons. 10 Remember the day you stood before the Lord your God at Horeb, when the Lord said to me, ‘Assemble the people to Me, that I may have them hear My words (D)so that they may learn to [a]fear Me all the days that they live on the earth, and that they may (E)teach their children.’ 11 You came forward and stood at the foot of the mountain, (F)and the mountain was burning with fire to the heart of the heavens: darkness, cloud, and thick gloom. 12 Then the Lord spoke to you from the midst of the fire; you heard the sound of words, but you saw no form—there was only a voice. 13 So He declared to you His covenant which He commanded you to perform, that is, (G)the Ten [b]Commandments; and (H)He wrote them on two tablets of stone. 14 The Lord commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and judgments, so that you would perform them in the land where you are going over to take possession of it.

A Good Minister’s Discipline
6 In pointing out these things to (A)the brothers and sisters, you will be a good (B)servant of Christ Jesus, constantly nourished on the words of the faith and of the (C)good doctrine which you (D)have been following. 7 But [a]stay away from (E)worthless (F)stories that are typical of old women. Rather, [b]discipline yourself for the purpose of (G)godliness; 8 for (H)bodily training is just slightly beneficial, but (I)godliness is beneficial for all things, since it (J)holds promise for the (K)present life and also for the life to come. 9 (L)It is a trustworthy statement deserving full acceptance. 10 For it is for this we labor and strive, because we have set (M)our hope on (N)the living God, who is (O)the Savior of all mankind, especially of believers.
11 [c](P)Prescribe and teach these things. 12 (Q)Let no one look down on your youthfulness, but rather in speech, conduct, (R)love, faith, and purity, show yourself (S)an example [d]of those who believe. 13 (T)Until I come, give your attention to the public [e](U)reading, to exhortation, and teaching. 14 Do not neglect the spiritual gift within you, which was granted to you through words of (V)prophecy with (W)the laying on of hands by the [f](X)council of elders. 15 Take pains with these things; be absorbed in them, so that your progress will be evident to all. 16 (Y)Pay close attention to yourself and to the teaching; persevere in these things, for as you do this you will (Z)save both yourself and those who hear you.
