Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
9 Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble. My eye, my soul and my belly are consumed with grief.
10 For my life is wasted with heaviness, and my years with mourning. My strength fails because of my pain; and my bones are consumed.
11 I was a reproach among all my enemies — but especially among my neighbors — and a fear to my acquaintances. Who, seeing me in the street, fled from me.
12 I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind. I am like a broken vessel.
13 For I have heard the railing of great men. Fear was on every side, while they conspired together against me and consulted to take my life.
14 But I trusted in You, O LORD. I said, “You are my God.”
15 My times are in Your hand. Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, and from those who persecute me.
16 Make Your face to shine upon Your servant. Save me through Your mercy.
23 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘The feasts of the LORD which you shall call the Holy Assemblies, these are My Feasts.
3 “Six days work shall be done. But on the seventh day, the Sabbath of Rest, a Holy Convocation. You shall do no work. It is the Sabbath of the LORD, in all your dwellings.
4 “These are the Feasts of the LORD, Holy Convocations which you shall proclaim in their seasons.
5 “In the first month, on the fourteenth of the month, at evening , the Passover of the LORD.
6 “And on the fifteenth day of this month, the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the LORD. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread.
7 “On the first day you shall have a Holy Convocation. You shall do no servile work.
8 “Also, you shall offer sacrifice made by fire to the LORD for seven days. The seventh day shall be a Holy Convocation. You shall do no servile work.”
22 Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread drew near (which is called the Passover).
2 And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill Him. For they feared the people.
3 Then Satan entered into Judas (who was called Iscariot and was among the number of the twelve).
4 And he went his way and discussed with the chief priests and captains how he might betray Him to them.
5 So they were glad and agreed to give him money.
6 And he consented and sought opportunity to betray Him to them when the people were away.
7 Then the Day of Unleavened Bread came (when the Passover must be sacrificed).
8 And He sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, so that we may eat it.”
9 And they said to Him, “Where would You have us prepare it?”
10 Then He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered into the city, a man bearing a pitcher of water shall meet you. Follow him into the house where he enters.
11 “And say to the good man of the house, ‘The Master says to you, “Where is the lodging where I shall eat My Passover with My disciples?”’
12 “Then he will show you a large, furnished upper room. Make it ready there.”
13 So they went and found as He had said to them. And they made ready the Passover.
