Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
67 God be merciful unto us and bless us, and cause His face to shine upon us, Selah
2 that Thy way may be known upon earth, Thy saving health among all nations.
3 Let the people praise Thee, O God; let all the people praise Thee.
4 O let the nations be glad and sing for joy, for Thou shalt judge the people righteously and govern the nations upon the earth. Selah
5 Let the people praise Thee, O God; let all the people praise Thee.
6 Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us.
7 God shall bless us, and all the ends of the earth shall fear Him.
9 Then shalt thou understand righteousness and judgment and equity, yea, every good path.
10 When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul,
11 discretion shall preserve thee, and understanding shall keep thee,
12 to deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from men that speaketh froward things,
13 who leave the paths of uprightness to walk in the ways of darkness,
14 who rejoice to do evil and delight in the frowardness of the wicked,
15 whose ways are crooked and who are froward in their paths.
19 And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho.
2 And behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus who was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.
3 And he sought to see Jesus, who He was, but could not for the press of the crowd, because he was short in stature.
4 And he ran ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see Him, for He was to pass that way.
5 And when Jesus came to the place, He looked up and saw him, and said unto him, “Zacchaeus, make haste and come down, for today I must abide at thy house.”
6 And he made haste and came down, and received Him joyfully.
7 And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying that He had gone to be the guest of a man who was a sinner.
8 And Zacchaeus stood and said unto the Lord, “Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken anything from any man by false accusation, I restore to him fourfold.”
9 And Jesus said unto him, “This day is salvation come to this house, in that he also is a son of Abraham.
10 For the Son of Man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.”
