Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
42 Then Job answered the LORD, and said,
2 “I know that You can do all things, and that there is no thought hidden from You.
3 “Who is he who hides counsel without knowledge? Therefore, I have spoken of that which I did not understand, things too wonderful for me and which I did not know.
4 “Please hear, and I will speak. I will ask You, and You tell me.
5 “I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear. But now my eye sees You.
6 “Therefore, I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.”
10 Then the LORD turned the fortunes of Job, when he prayed for his friends. Also, the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.
11 Then all his brothers came to him, and all his sisters, and all those who had been his acquaintances before, and ate bread with him in his house, and had compassion on him, and comforted him for all the misery that the LORD had brought upon him. And every man gave him a piece of money, and everyone an earring of gold.
12 So the LORD blessed the last days of Job more than the first. For he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand female donkeys.
13 He also had seven sons and three daughters.
14 And he called the name of one, Jemimah, and the name of the second, Keziah, and the name of the third, Keren-Happuch.
15 In all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job. And their father gave them inheritance among their brothers.
16 And after this, Job lived a hundred forty years, and saw his sons and his son’s sons, for four generations.
17 So Job died, being old and full of days.
34 I will always give thanks to the LORD. His praise shall be in my mouth continually.
2 My soul shall glory in the LORD. The humble shall hear it and be glad.
3 Praise the LORD with me; and let us magnify His Name together.
4 I sought the LORD, and He heard me. Indeed, He delivered me out of all my fear.
5 They shall look to Him and run; and their faces shall not be ashamed.
6 This poor man cried; and the LORD heard and saved him out of all his troubles.
7 The Angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him and delivers them.
8 Taste and see how gracious the LORD is. Blessed is the man who trusts in Him.
19 Great are the troubles of the righteous. But the LORD delivers him out of them all.
20 He keeps all His bones. Not one of them is broken.
21 Malice shall slay the wicked; and those who hate the righteous shall perish.
22 The LORD redeems the souls of His servants; and no one who trusts in Him shall perish. A Psalm of David.
23 And many were made priests among them, because they were not allowed to endure by the reason of death.
24 But this Man, because He endures forever, has an unchangeable priesthood.
25 Therefore, He is also able to perfectly save those who come to God through Him (seeing He forever lives to make intercession for them).
26 For it was fitting for us to have such a High Priest: holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
27 Who does not need to offer up daily sacrifices (first for His own sins, and then for the people’s) as those High Priests. For He did that once and for all when He offered up Himself.
28 For the Law makes men (who have weakness) High Priests. But the Word of the oath (which came after the Law) makes the Son, Who is consecrated for evermore.
46 Then they came to Jericho. And as He went out of Jericho with His disciples (and a great multitude), Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, a blind man, sat by the wayside, begging.
47 And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry and say, “Jesus! The Son of David! Have mercy on me!”
48 And many rebuked him and told him to be quiet. But he cried much more, “O, Son of David! Have mercy on me!”
49 Then Jesus stood still and commanded him to be called. And they called the blind man, saying to him, “Be of good cheer! Arise, He calls you.”
50 So he threw off his cloak and rose and came to Jesus.
51 And Jesus answered, and said to him, “What would you have Me do for you?” And the blind said to Him, “Lord, that I may receive sight.”
52 Then Jesus said to him, “Go your way. Your faith has saved you.” And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the way.
