Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)

134 A Song of the Ascents. Lo, bless Jehovah, all servants of Jehovah, Who are standing in the house of Jehovah by night.

² Lift up your hands [in] the sanctuary, And bless ye Jehovah.

³ Jehovah doth bless thee out of Zion, The maker of the heavens and earth!

24 And unto Moses He said, `Come up unto Jehovah, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, and ye have bowed yourselves afar off;'

² and Moses hath drawn nigh by himself unto Jehovah; and they draw not nigh, and the people go not up with him.

³ And Moses cometh in, and recounteth to the people all the words of Jehovah, and all the judgments, and all the people answer -- one voice, and say, `All the words which Jehovah hath spoken we do.'

⁴ And Moses writeth all the words of Jehovah, and riseth early in the morning, and buildeth an altar under the hill, and twelve standing pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel;

⁵ and he sendeth the youths of the sons of Israel, and they cause burnt-offerings to ascend, and sacrifice sacrifices of peace-offerings to Jehovah -- calves.

⁶ And Moses taketh half of the blood, and putteth in basins, and half of the blood hath he sprinkled on the altar;

⁷ and he taketh the Book of the Covenant, and proclaimeth in the ears of the people, and they say, `All that which Jehovah hath spoken we do, and obey.'

⁸ And Moses taketh the blood, and sprinkleth on the people, and saith, `Lo, the blood of the covenant which Jehovah hath made with you, concerning all these things.'

⁹ And Moses goeth up, Aaron also, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel,

¹⁰ and they see the God of Israel, and under His feet [is] as the white work of the sapphire, and as the substance of the heavens for purity;

¹¹ and unto those of the sons of Israel who are near He hath not put forth His hand, and they see God, and eat and drink.

21 After these things did Jesus manifest himself again to the disciples on the sea of Tiberias, and he did manifest himself thus:

² There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas who is called Didymus, and Nathanael from Cana of Galilee, and the [sons] of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples.

³ Simon Peter saith to them, `I go away to fish;' they say to him, `We go -- we also -- with thee;' they went forth and entered into the boat immediately, and on that night they caught nothing.

⁴ And morning being now come, Jesus stood at the shore, yet indeed the disciples did not know that it is Jesus;

⁵ Jesus, therefore, saith to them, `Lads, have ye any meat?'

⁶ they answered him, `No;' and he said to them, `Cast the net at the right side of the boat, and ye shall find;' they cast, therefore, and no longer were they able to draw it, from the multitude of the fishes.

⁷ That disciple, therefore, whom Jesus was loving saith to Peter, `The Lord it is!' Simon Peter, therefore, having heard that it is the Lord, did gird on the outer coat, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea;

⁸ and the other disciples came by the little boat, for they were not far from the land, but as it were about two hundred cubits off, dragging the net of the fishes;

⁹ when, therefore, they came to the land, they behold a fire of coals lying, and a fish lying on it, and bread.

¹⁰ Jesus saith to them, `Bring ye from the fishes that ye caught now;'

¹¹ Simon Peter went up, and drew the net up on the land, full of great fishes, an hundred fifty and three, and though they were so many, the net was not rent.

¹² Jesus saith to them, `Come ye, dine;' and none of the disciples was venturing to inquire of him, `Who art thou?' knowing that it is the Lord;

¹³ Jesus, therefore, doth come and take the bread and give to them, and the fish in like manner;

¹⁴ this [is] now a third time Jesus was manifested to his disciples, having been raised from the dead.
