Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
97 O how I love Thy law! It is my meditation all the day.
98 Thou, through Thy commandments, hast made me wiser than mine enemies; for Thy commands are ever with me.
99 I have more understanding than all my teachers, for Thy testimonies are my meditation.
100 I understand more than the ancients, because I keep Thy precepts.
101 I have restrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep Thy word.
102 I have not departed from Thy judgments, for Thou hast taught me.
103 How sweet are Thy words unto my taste, yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
104 Through Thy precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way.
11 And when the people complained, it displeased the Lord; and the Lord heard it, and His anger was kindled. And the fire of the Lord burned among them, and consumed those who were in the uttermost parts of the camp.
2 And the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto the Lord, the fire was quenched.
3 And he called the name of the place Taberah [that is, A burning], because the fire of the Lord burned among them.
4 And the mixed multitude that was among them fell to lusting. And the children of Israel also wept again and said, “Who shall give us flesh to eat?
5 We remember the fish which we ate in Egypt freely, the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic;
6 but our soul is dried away. There is nothing at all besides this manna before our eyes.”
7 And the manna was as coriander seed, and the color thereof as the color of bdellium.
8 And the people went about and gathered it, and ground it in mills or beat it in a mortar, and baked it in pans and made cakes of it; and the taste of it was as the taste of fresh oil.
9 And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon it.
17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark those who cause divisions and offenses, contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned, and avoid them.
18 For such as they serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly, and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
19 For your obedience has become known abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf; but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil.
20 And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
