Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
76 God is known in Judah. His Name is great in Israel.
2 For in Salem is His Tabernacle; and His dwelling is in Zion.
3 There He broke the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. Selah.
4 You are brighter and more excellent than the mountains of prey.
5 The stout-hearted are spoiled. They have slept their sleep, and all the men of strength have not found their hands.
6 At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast dead asleep.
7 You. You are to be feared. And who shall stand in Your sight when You are angry!
8 You caused judgment to be heard from Heaven. The Earth feared, and was still,
9 when You, O God, rose to judgment to help all the meek of the Earth. Selah.
10 Surely, the rage of man shall turn to Your praise; the remnant of the rage You shall restrain.
11 Vow and perform to the LORD your God, all you who surround Him; let them bring presents to Him Who ought to be feared.
12 He shall cut off the spirit of princes; he is feared by the kings of the Earth. For the excellent musician, Jeduthun: A Psalm committed to Asaph
17 “For bronze will I bring gold, and for iron will I bring silver, and for wood, bronze, and for stones, iron. I will also make your government, peace, and your oppressors, righteousness.
18 “Violence shall be heard of no more in your land, or desolation, or destruction within your borders. But you shall call salvation, your walls, and praise, your gates.
19 “You shall have no more Sun to shine by day, nor shall the brightness of the Moon shine to you. For the LORD shall be your everlasting Light, and your God, your Glory.
20 “Your Sun shall never go down, nor shall your Moon be hidden. For the LORD shall be your everlasting light. And the days of your sorrow shall be ended.
21 “Also, your people shall all be righteous. They shall possess the land forever. The grass of My planting shall be the work of My Hands, so that I may be glorified.
22 “A little one shall become as a thousand, and a small one as a strong nation. I, the LORD, will hasten it in due time.”
25 Therefore, having laid aside lying, everyone speak truth to his neighbor. For we are members one of another.
26 Be angry, but do not sin. Do not let the Sun go down upon your irritation,
27 nor give place to the devil.
28 Let him who stole, steal no more. But rather, let him labor and work with his hands that which is good, so that he may have something to give to those in need.
29 Let no worthless word proceed out of your mouth, but only if it is good for edification, so that it may give grace to those who hear.
30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in Whom you are sealed for the Day of Redemption.
31 Let all bitterness and fury and anger, clamor and slander, be taken from you, along with all wickedness.
32 Be kind one to another, and tender-hearted, freely forgiving one another; even as God, for Christ’s sake, freely forgave you.
5 Therefore, be imitators of God, as beloved children.
2 And walk in love, just as Christ has loved us and has given Himself for us as an offering and a sacrifice of a sweet-smelling savor to God.
