Psalm 103:1-8

103 1 He provoketh all to praise the Lord, which hath pardoned his sins, delivered him from destruction and given him sufficient of all good things. 10 Then he addeth the tender mercies of God, which he showeth like a most tender Father toward his children. 14 The frailty of man’s life. 20 An exhortation to man and Angels to praise the Lord.

A Psalm of David.

My soul, [a]praise thou the Lord, and all that is within me, praise his holy Name.

My soul, praise thou the Lord, and forget not all his benefits.

Which [b]forgiveth all thine iniquity, and healeth all thine infirmities.

Which redeemeth thy life from the [c]grave; and crowneth thee with mercy and compassions.

Which satisfieth thy mouth with good things: and thy [d]youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

The Lord executeth righteousness and judgment to all that are oppressed.

He made his ways known unto [e]Moses, and his works unto the children of Israel.

The Lord is full of compassion and mercy, slow to anger and of great kindness.

2 Chronicles 8:12-15

12 ¶ Then Solomon offered burnt offerings unto the Lord, on the (A)altar of the Lord, which he had built before the porch,

13 To (B)offer according to the commandment of Moses [a]every day, in the Sabbaths, and in the new moons, and in the solemn feasts, [b]three times in the year, that is, in the feast of the Unleavened bread, and in the feast of the Weeks, and in the feast of the Tabernacles.

14 And he set the courses of the Priests to their offices according to the order of David his father, and the Levites in their watches, for to praise and minister before the Priests every day, and the porters by their (C)courses, at every gate: for so was the commandment of David the man of God.

15 And they declined not from the commandment of the king, concerning the Priests and the Levites, touching all things, and touching the treasures.

Acts 17:1-9

17 1 Paul at Thessalonica 3 preaching Christ, 6, 7 is entertained of Jason: 10 He is sent to Berea: 15 from thence coming to Athens, 19 in Mars’ street 23 he preacheth the living God to them unknown, 34 and so many are converted unto Christ.

Now [a]as they passed through Amphipolis, and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was a Synagogue of the Jews.

And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three Sabbath days disputed with them by the Scriptures,

[b]Opening, and alleging that Christ must have suffered, and risen again from the dead, and this is Jesus Christ, whom said he, I preach to you.

And some of them believed, and joined in company with Paul and Silas: also of the Grecians that feared God a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few.

[c]But the Jews which believed not, moved with envy, took unto them certain [d]vagabonds and wicked fellows, and when they had assembled the multitude, they made a tumult in the city, and made assault against the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people.

But when they found them not, they drew Jason and certain brethren unto the heads of the city, crying, These are they which have subverted the state of the [e]world, and here they are,

Whom Jason hath received, and these all do against the decrees of Caesar, saying, that there is another King one Jesus.

Then they troubled the people, and the heads of the city, when they heard these things.

Notwithstanding when they had received sufficient [f]assurance of Jason and of the others, they let them go.
