Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
100 Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands!
2 Serve the Lord with gladness; come before His presence with singing!
3 Know ye that the Lord, He is God; it is He that hath made us, and not we ourselves. We are His people, and the sheep of His pasture.
4 Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise! Be thankful unto Him, and bless His name!
5 For the Lord is good, His mercy is everlasting; and His truth endureth to all generations.
17 “Israel is a scattered sheep; the lions have driven him away. First the king of Assyria hath devoured him, and last this Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon hath broken his bones.”
18 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: “Behold, I will punish the king of Babylon and his land, as I have punished the king of Assyria.
19 And I will bring Israel again to his habitation; and he shall feed on Carmel and Bashan, and his soul shall be satisfied upon Mount Ephraim and Gilead.
20 In those days and in that time,” saith the Lord, “the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah and they shall not be found: for I will pardon them whom I reserve.
31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone Him.
32 Jesus answered them, “Many good works have I shown you from My Father. For which of those works do ye stone Me?”
33 The Jews answered Him, saying, “For a good work we stone thee not, but for blasphemy and because thou, being a man, makest thyself God.”
34 Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your law, ‘I said “Ye are gods”’?
35 If He called them gods unto whom the Word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken),
36 do ye say of Him whom the Father hath sanctified and sent into the world, ‘Thou blasphemest,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’?
37 If I do not the works of My Father, believe Me not.
38 But if I do, though ye believe not Me, believe the works, that ye may know and believe that the Father is in Me, and I in Him.”
39 Therefore they sought again to take Him, but He escaped out of their hand,
40 and went away again beyond the Jordan into the place where John had first baptized; and there He abode.
41 And many resorted unto Him and said that John did no miracle, but all things that John spoke of this Man were true.
42 And many believed in Him there.
