Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
86 1 David sore afflicted and forsaken of all, prayeth fervently for deliverance: sometimes rehearsing his miseries, 5 Sometimes the mercies received. 11 Desiring also to be instructed of the Lord, that he may fear him, and glorify his Name. 14 He complaineth also of his adversaries, and requireth to be delivered from them.
A prayer of David.
1 Incline [a]thine ear, O Lord, and hear me: for I am poor and needy.
2 Preserve thou my soul, for I am [b]merciful: my God, save thou thy servant, that trusteth in thee.
3 Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I [c]cry upon thee continually.
4 Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
5 For thou, Lord, art good and [d]merciful, and of great kindness unto all them that call upon thee.
6 Give ear, Lord, unto my prayer, and [e]hearken to the voice of my supplication.
7 In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou hearest me.
8 Among the gods there is none like thee, O Lord, and there is none [f]that can do like thy works.
9 All nations whom thou hast made, shall come and [g]worship before thee, O Lord, and shall glorify thy Name.
10 For thou art great and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone.
43 Also the Lord said unto Moses and Aaron, This is the Law of the Passover: [a]no stranger shall eat thereof.
44 But every servant that is bought for money, when thou hast circumcised him, then shall he eat thereof.
45 A stranger or an hired servant shall not eat thereof.
46 (A)In one house shall it be eaten: thou shalt carry none of the flesh out of the house, (B)neither shall ye break a bone thereof.
47 All the Congregation of Israel shall observe it.
48 But if a stranger dwell with thee, and will observe the passover of the Lord, let him circumcise all the males, that belong unto him, and then let him come and observe it, and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for none uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.
49 One [b]law shall be to him that is born in the land, and to the stranger that dwelleth among you.
5 [a]For he hath not put in subjection unto the Angels the [b]world to come, whereof we speak.
6 [c]But (A)one in a certain place witnessed, saying, [d]What is man, that thou shouldest be mindful of him? or the [e]son of man, that thou wouldest consider him?
7 Thou [f]madest him a little inferior to the Angels: thou crownedst him with [g]glory and honor, and hast set him above the works of thine hands.
8 (B)Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. And in that he hath put all things in subjection under him, he left nothing that should not be subject unto him. [h]But we yet see not all things subdued unto him,
9 [i]But we [j]see Jesus crowned with glory and honor, (C)which was made little [k]inferior to the Angels, [l]through the [m]suffering of death, that by God’s grace he might [n]taste death for [o]all men.
