Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
34 And opening his mouth, Kefa said, "Omein, I have binah that Hashem is not one to show masso panim (partiality), [Dt 10:17; 2Ch 19:7; Job 34:19]
35 "But in every nation the ones who have yirat Shomayim and work Tzidkat Hashem are acceptable to him.
36 "The dvar which he sent to the Bnei Yisroel, preaching shalom through Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua (Hu Adon Kol!) [Isa 52:7; Ps 107:20; 147:18 TARGUM HASHIVIM]
37 "That word, I say, you know the thing which took place throughout all Yehudah, having begun from the Galil after the tevilah of teshuva which Yochanan preached;
38 "You know Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua from Natzeret, how Hashem anointed him with the Ruach Hakodesh and with ko’ach (power), and how he went about doing mitzvot and giving refu’ah shlemah to all the ones being oppressed by Samael (the devil) because Hashem was with him. [YESHAYAH 61:1]
39 "We are edim (witnesses) of all things which he did both in the countryside of Yehudah and in Yerushalayim. And they also put him to death, having hanged nivlato al haEtz (his body on the Tree, DEVARIM 21:23).
40 "This one Hashem made to stand up alive again on the Yom HaShelishi and granted to him to be visible,
41 "Not to Klal Yisroel, but to edim which had been chosen beforehand by Hashem, that is, to us who ate and drank together with him at Tish after the Techiyas HaMoshiach.
42 "Moshiach gave mitzvah to us to preach to the people and to bear solemn edut that this one is the one having been appointed by Hashem as Shofet HaChayyim v’HaMesim.
43 "To this one all the Nevi’im bear witness that through ha-Shem of him [Moshiach Yehoshua, Yeshua] everyone who has emunah in him has selicha (forgiveness) of chatta’'im (averos, sins).
31 (30:25) At the same time, saith Hashem, I will be Elohim l’khol mishpekhot Yisroel, and they shall be My people.
2 (1) Thus saith Hashem, The Am seridei cherev (the People that survived the cherev [as a Remnant]) found chen (grace) in the midbar; even Yisroel, when Yisroel journeyed to find [a place of] rest.
3 (2) Hashem hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yes, I have loved thee with an ahavat olam; therefore with chesed have I drawn thee.
4 (3) Again I will build thee up, and thou shalt be rebuilt, O Betulat Yisroel; thou shalt again adorn thyself with thy timbrels, and shalt go forth in the dance of merrymakers.
5 (4) Thou shalt yet plant keramim upon the hills of Shomron; the planters shall plant, and shall put the fruit to ordinary use [See Lv 19:24-25].
6 (5) For there shall be a yom, that the notzrim (watchmen) upon har Ephrayim shall cry, Arise ye, and let us go up to Tziyon unto Hashem Eloheinu.
118 O give thanks unto Hashem; for He is tov; Ki l’olam chasdo (for His mercy endureth forever).
2 Let Yisroel now say, Ki l’olam chasdo.
14 Hashem is my oz (strength) and zimrah (song), and He is become my Yeshuah (salvation).
15 The voice of rejoicing and Yeshuah (salvation) is in the ohalim of the tzaddikim; the Yamin Hashem doeth valiantly.
16 The Yamin Hashem is exalted; the Yamin Hashem doeth valiantly.
17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the ma’asim (works) of Hashem.
18 Hashem hath hard chastened me severely; but He hath not given me over unto mavet (death).
19 Open to me the sha’arei tzedek; I will go through them, and I will praise Hashem;
20 This is the sha’ar of Hashem, into which the tzaddikim shall enter.
21 I will praise Thee; for Thou hast heard me, and art become my Yeshuah (salvation).
22 The Even (Stone) which the Bonim (Builders) rejected [mem-alef-samech, see same word Psalm 89:38 (39)] has become the Rosh Pinnah (Cornerstone).
23 This is Hashem’s doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.
24 This is the yom which Hashem hath made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
3 If therefore you were made to stand up alive in hitkhadshut with Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, seek the things above, where Moshiach is, LI’MINI ("at my right hand" TEHILLIM 110:1), sitting at the right hand of Hashem.
2 Place your machshavot (thoughts) above (in Shomayim), not on the things of the Olam Hazeh.
3 For you died and the Chayyim of you has become nistar (hidden, 2:3) with Moshiach in Hashem.
4 When Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach who is Chayyeinu (our Life) is made manifest in hisgalus (revelation), then also you with Him will be made manifest in hisgalus in kavod.
34 And opening his mouth, Kefa said, "Omein, I have binah that Hashem is not one to show masso panim (partiality), [Dt 10:17; 2Ch 19:7; Job 34:19]
35 "But in every nation the ones who have yirat Shomayim and work Tzidkat Hashem are acceptable to him.
36 "The dvar which he sent to the Bnei Yisroel, preaching shalom through Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua (Hu Adon Kol!) [Isa 52:7; Ps 107:20; 147:18 TARGUM HASHIVIM]

39 "We are edim (witnesses) of all things which he did both in the countryside of Yehudah and in Yerushalayim. And they also put him to death, having hanged nivlato al haEtz (his body on the Tree, DEVARIM 21:23).

20 Now on the Yom Rishon, Miryam of Magdala comes early, while it was still dark, to the kever (tomb) and sees the stone having been taken away from the kever.
2 Miryam of Magdala runs therefore and comes to Shimon Kefa and to the talmid ha’ahuv and says to them, They have taken Adoneinu from the kever (tomb) and we do not have da’as where they placed him.
3 Therefore, Shimon Kefa went forth and the other talmid, and they were coming to the kever (tomb),
4 And were running, the two together and the other talmid ran ahead faster than Kefa, and came first to the kever,
5 And having stooped down, the other talmid [talmid ha’ahuv] sees the tachrichin linen clothes lying there. However, he did not enter the kever.
6 Then comes also Shimon Kefa following him and Shimon Kefa entered into the kever (tomb), and sees the tachrichin linen clothes lying there.
7 And also the mitznefet (head wrapping), which had been upon the rosh of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, the mitznefet not lying with the tachrichin, but apart, having been folded up in one place.
8 Then, therefore, entered also the other talmid, the one having come first to the kever (tomb), and he saw and had emunah (faith).
9 For they did not yet have da’as of the Kitvei Hakodesh that it is necessary for Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach to have his Techiyas HaMoshiach. [TEHILLIM 16:9; YESHAYAH 53:10]
10 Then the talmidim went away again to their own homes.
11 Now Miryam had stood at the kever (tomb) outside weeping. Then, as she was weeping, she bent down into the kever (tomb)
12 And sees two malachim (angels) in white, sitting, one at the head and one at the feet, where the Guf of Yehoshua had previously been lying.
13 And those ones say to her, Isha, why do you weep? She says to them, They took Adoni, and I don’t have da’as of where they placed him.
14 When she had said these things, she turned back around, and she sees Yehoshua standing there, and she did not have da’as that it was Yehoshua.
15 Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to her, Isha, why do you weep? Whom do you seek? Miryam, supposing that he was the shomer hagahn (the keeper of the garden), says to him, Adon, if you carried him away, tell me where you placed him, and I’ll take him.
16 He says to her, Miryam. She turns and she says to him in Ivrit, Rabboni. (This means mori [my teacher].)
17 He says to her, Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet made the aliyah ascent to HaAv; but go to my Achim and tell them, I make the aliyah ascent to Avi and to Avichem, to Elohai and Eloheichem. [TEHILLIM 22:23]
18 Miryam from Magdala comes announcing to the talmidim, I have seen HaAdon [MALACHI 3:1]. And she told them that He had said to her these things.
28 Now after Shabbos, at the time of Shacharis on Yom Rishon (the first day of the week), Miryam of Magdala and the other Miryam came to look at the kever.
2 And hinei! a great earthquake had occurred, for a malach Adonoi (an angel of Hashem) descended from Shomayim and came and rolled away the stone and sat upon it.
3 And his appearance was like lightning and his garment as white as snow.
4 And the shomrim (guards) shook for fear of him and became like dead men.
5 And the malach, in reply, said to the nashim, Do not be afraid, for I know that you are seeking Yehoshua, who has been hanged on HaEtz.
6 He is not here. To him has come the Techiyas HaMesim, just as he said. Come, see the place where HaAdon was lying.
7 And go quickly, tell his talmidim about the Techiyas HaMoshiach from HaMesim. And, hinei! He is going ahead of you into the Galil. There you will see him. Hinei! I have told you!
8 And they departed quickly from the kever with fear and great simcha and ran to report everything to Moshiach’s talmidim.
9 And hinei! Moshiach met them, saying Shalom Aleichem. And they came up and took hold of his feet and fell prostrate before him.
10 Then he said to them, Do not be afraid; go and take word to my Achim that they may go away to the Galil, and there they shall see me.
