67 1 A prayer of the Church to obtain the favor of God and to be lightened with his countenance. 2 To the end that his way and judgment may be known throughout the earth. 7 And finally is declared the kingdom of God, which should be universally erected at the coming of Christ.
To him that excelleth on Neginoth. A Psalm or song.
1 God be merciful unto us, and bless us, and [a]cause his face to shine among us. (Selah.)
2 That [b]they may know thy way upon earth, and thy saving health among all nations.
3 Let the people praise thee, O God: let all the people praise thee.
4 [c]Let the people be glad and rejoice: for thou shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon the earth. Selah.
5 Let the people praise thee, O God: let all the people praise thee.
6 Then shall [d]the earth bring forth her increase, and God, even our God shall bless us.
7 God shall bless us, and all the ends of the earth [e]shall fear him.
9 Then shalt thou understand righteousness and judgment, and equity, and every good path.
10 ¶ When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge delighteth thy soul,
11 Then shall [a]counsel preserve thee, and understanding shall keep thee,
12 And deliver thee from the evil way, and from the man that speaketh froward things,
13 And from them that leave the [b]ways of righteousness to walk in the ways of darkness:
14 Which rejoice in doing evil, and delight [c]in the frowardness of the wicked,
15 Whose ways are crooked, and they are lewd in their paths.
19 2 Zacchaeus the Publican. 13 Ten pieces of money delivered to servants to occupy withall. 19 Jesus entereth into Jerusalem. 41 He foretelleth the destruction of the ciy with tears. 45 He casteth the sellers out of the Temple.
1 Now [a]when Jesus entered and passed through Jericho,
2 Behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the [b]chief receiver of the tribute, and he was rich.
3 And he sought to see Jesus, who he should be, and could not for the press, because he was of a low stature.
4 Wherefore he ran before, and climbed up into a wild fig tree, that he might see him: for he should come that way.
5 And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, come down at once: for today I must abide at thine house.
6 Then he came down hastily, and received him joyfully.
7 [c]And when all they saw it, they murmured, saying, that he was gone in to lodge with a sinful man.
8 [d]And Zacchaeus stood forth, and said unto the Lord, Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor: and if I have taken from any man by [e]forged cavillation, I restore him fourfold.
9 Then Jesus said to him, This day is salvation come unto this house, forasmuch as he is also become the [f]son of Abraham.
10 (A)For the son of man is come to seek, and to save that which was lost.
