Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
ALEPH.
1 ¶ Blessed are those who walk in the perfect way, who walk in the law of the LORD.
2 Blessed are those that keep his testimonies and that seek him with their whole heart.
3 For those who do no iniquity walk in his ways.
4 ¶ Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently.
5 O that my ways were ordered to keep thy statutes!
6 Then I shall not be ashamed, when I have insight unto all thy commandments.
7 ¶ I will praise thee with uprightness of heart when I shall have learned thy righteous judgments.
8 I will keep thy statutes; O do not utterly forsake me.
32 Thou shalt rise up before grey hair and honour the face of the elder and fear thy God. I am the LORD.
33 And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not oppress him.
34 But the stranger that dwells with you shall be as the natural of yourselves, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. I AM your God.
35 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in measurement of land, in weight, or in other measure.
36 Just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin shall ye have. I AM your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.
37 Keep, therefore, all my statutes and all my rights and do them. I am the LORD.
21 But now, without the law, the righteousness of God has been manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets:
22 the righteousness, that is, of God by the faith of Jesus, the Christ, for all and upon all those that believe in him, for there is no difference;
23 for all have sinned and are made destitute of the glory of God,
24 being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Jesus, the Christ,
25 whom God purposed for reconciliation through faith in his blood for the manifestation of his righteousness, for the remission of sins that are past, by the patience of God,
26 manifesting in this time his righteousness that he only be the just one and the justifier of him that is of the faith of Jesus.
27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? No, but by the law of faith.
28 Therefore, we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
29 Is he the God of the Jews only? Is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also,
30 seeing it is one God who shall justify the circumcision by faith and the uncircumcision by faith.
31 Do we then make void the law through faith? No, in no wise; to the contrary, we establish the law.
