Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
9 Because you have made the Lord your (A)dwelling place—
the Most High, who is my (B)refuge[a]—
10 (C)no evil shall be allowed to befall you,
(D)no plague come near your tent.
A Time for Everything
3 For everything there is a season, and (A)a time for every matter under heaven:
2 a time to be born, and a time to (B)die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
3 a time to kill, and a time to heal;
a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4 a time to (C)weep, and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and a time to (D)dance;
5 a time to (E)cast away stones, and a time to (F)gather stones together;
a time to embrace, and a time to (G)refrain from embracing;
6 a time to seek, and a time to (H)lose;
a time to keep, and a time to (I)cast away;
7 a time to (J)tear, and a time to sew;
a time to (K)keep silence, and a time to speak;
8 a time to love, and a time to (L)hate;
a time for war, and a time for peace.
The Son of Man Must Be Lifted Up
27 (A)“Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? ‘Father, (B)save me from (C)this hour’? But (D)for this purpose I have come to (E)this hour. 28 Father, glorify your name.” Then (F)a voice came from heaven: “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.” 29 The crowd that stood there and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, (G)“An angel has spoken to him.” 30 Jesus answered, (H)“This voice has come for your sake, not mine. 31 (I)Now is the judgment of this world; now will (J)the ruler of this world (K)be cast out. 32 And I, (L)when I am lifted up from the earth, (M)will draw (N)all people to myself.” 33 He said this (O)to show by what kind of death he was going to die. 34 So the crowd answered him, “We have heard from the Law that (P)the Christ remains forever. How can you say that (Q)the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man?” 35 So Jesus said to them, (R)“The light is among you (S)for a little while longer. (T)Walk while you have the light, lest darkness (U)overtake you. (V)The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going. 36 While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become (W)sons of light.”
The Unbelief of the People
When Jesus had said these things, he departed and hid himself from them.
