Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
83 Do not keep silent, O God. Do not be still, and do not cease, O God.
2 For lo, Your enemies murmur and those who hate You have lifted up the head.
3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people and have consulted against Your treasured ones.
4 They have said, “Come and let us cut them off from being a nation. And let the name of Israel be in remembrance no more.”
9 Do to them as to the Midianites, as to Sisera and as to Jabin at the river of Kishon.
10 They perished at En Dor and were dung for the Earth.
17 Let them be confounded and troubled forever. Indeed, let them be put to shame and perish,
18 so that they may know that You, Who are called JEHOVAH, are alone, the Most High over all the Earth. To him who excels upon Gittith: A Psalm committed to the sons of Korah
2 Then, a man of the house of Levi went and took a daughter of Levi as his wife.
2 And the woman conceived and bore a son. And when she saw that he was fair, she hid him for three months.
3 But when she could no longer hide him, she took an ark for him made of reed, and daubed it with tar and with pitch, and laid the child therein, and put it among the bulrushes, by the river’s edge.
4 Now, his sister stood far off, to see what would become of him.
5 Then, the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself in the river; and her maidens walked by the river’s side. And when she saw the ark among the bulrushes, she sent her maid to fetch it.
6 Then she opened it and saw it was a child. And behold, the baby wept. So, she had compassion on it, and said, “This is one of the Hebrews’ children.”
7 Then his sister said to Pharaoh’s daughter, “Shall I go and call a nurse of the Hebrew women to nurse the child for you?”
8 And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Go.” So, the maid went and called the child’s mother,
9 to whom Pharaoh’s daughter said, “Take this child away and nurse it for me; and I will reward you.” Then the woman took the child and nursed him.
10 Now the child grew. And she brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter. And he was as her son. And she called his name, Moses. “Because” she said, “I drew him out of the water.”
12 Now, we urge you, brothers, that you acknowledge those who labor among you and are over you in the Lord and admonish you.
13 Hold them in singular love for their work’s sake. Be at peace among yourselves.
14 We desire, brothers, that you admonish those who are out of order, comfort the faint-hearted, bear with the weak, be patient toward all.
15 See that no one recompenses evil for evil to anyone. But always follow that which is good, both toward yourselves and toward all.
16 Rejoice always.
17 Pray continually.
18 Give thanks in all things. For this is the will of God toward you in Christ Jesus.
