Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
95 Come, let us sing to the LORD! Let us sing aloud to the Rock of our Salvation!
2 Let us come before His Face with praise. Let us sing loud to Him with Psalms.
3 For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods,
4 in Whose hand are the deep places of the Earth, and the heights of the mountains are His.
5 The sea belongs to Him, for He made it; and His hands formed the dry land.
6 Come, let us worship and bow down, and kneel before the LORD our Maker.
7 For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture and the sheep of His Hand. Today, if you will hear His voice,
8 “Do not harden your heart as in Meribah, as in the day of Massah in the wilderness,
9 “when your fathers tempted Me (tested Me) though they had seen My work.
10 “Forty years I have contended with this generation, and said they are a people that err in heart, for they have not known My ways.
11 “Therefore, I swore in My wrath, saying, ‘Surely, they shall not enter into My rest.’”
8 Do not rejoice against me, O my enemy! Though I fall, I shall rise. When I shall sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light to me.
9 I will bear the wrath of the LORD, because I have sinned against Him, until He pleads my case and executes judgment for me. He will bring me forth to the light. And I shall see His righteousness.
10 Then she who is my enemy shall look upon it. And shame shall cover her who said to me, “Where is the LORD your God?” My eyes shall behold her. Now she shall be trampled down as the mire of the streets.
11 This is the day that your walls shall be built. This day shall drive the decree far away.
12 Also at this time they shall come to you from Assyria and the strong cities, and from the strongholds to the river, and from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain.
13 Nevertheless, the land shall be desolate because of those who dwell in it, for the fruits of their inventions.
14 Feed Your people with Your rod, the flock of Your heritage (who dwell solitarily in the forest) in the midst of Carmel. Let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in days of old.
15 “According to the days of your coming out of the land of Egypt, I will show to him marvelous things.”
16 The nations shall see and be confounded for all their power. They shall lay their hand upon their mouth. Their ears shall be deaf.
17 They shall lick the dust like a serpent. They shall move out of their holes like worms. They shall be afraid of the LORD our God, and shall fear because of You.
18 Who is a God like You, Who takes away iniquity and passes over the transgression of the remnant of His heritage! He does not retain His wrath forever, because mercy pleases Him.
19 He will turn again and have compassion upon us. He will subdue our iniquities and cast all their sins into the bottom of the sea.
20 You will perform truth to Jacob, mercy to Abraham, as You have sworn to our fathers in days of old.
26 And when they had sung a Psalm, they went out to the mount of Olives.
27 Then Jesus said to them, “All of you shall desert Me this night. For it is written, ‘I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.’
28 “But after I am risen, I will go into Galilee before you.”
29 And Peter said to Him, “Although all men should desert You, yet would not I!”
30 Then Jesus said to him, “Truly I say to you, this day, even this night, before the cock crows twice, you shall deny Me three times.”
31 But he said more earnestly, “If I should die with You, I will not deny You!” And so said they all.
