Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
To You, O Lord, I Lift Up My Soul
A Prayer of David.
86 (A)Incline Your ear, O Yahweh, and answer me;
For I am (B)afflicted and needy.
2 (C)Keep my [a]soul, for I am a (D)holy one;
O You my God, save Your slave who (E)trusts in You.
3 Be (F)gracious to me, O Lord,
For (G)to You I call all day long.
4 Make glad the soul of Your slave,
For to You, O Lord, (H)I lift up my soul.
5 For You, Lord, are (I)good, and (J)by nature forgiving,
And (K)abundant in lovingkindness to all who call upon You.
6 (L)Give ear, O Yahweh, to my prayer;
And give heed to the voice of my supplications!
7 In (M)the day of my distress I shall call upon You,
For (N)You will answer me.
8 There is (O)no one like You among the gods, O Lord,
Nor are there any works (P)like Yours.
9 (Q)All nations whom You have made shall come and worship before You, O Lord,
And they shall glorify Your name.
10 For You are (R)great and (S)do [b]wondrous deeds;
You alone (T)are God.
The Statute of the Passover
43 And Yahweh said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the statute of (A)the Passover: no [a](B)foreigner shall eat of it; 44 but every man’s (C)slave purchased with money, after you have circumcised him, then he may eat of it. 45 (D)A foreign resident or a hired person shall not eat of it. 46 It shall be eaten in a single house; you shall not bring forth any of the flesh outside of the house, (E)and you shall not break any bone of it. 47 (F)All the congregation of Israel shall [b]celebrate this. 48 But (G)if a sojourner sojourns with you and [c]celebrates the Passover to Yahweh, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near to [d]celebrate it; and he shall be like a native of the land. But no uncircumcised person may eat of it. 49 [e](H)The same law shall [f]apply to the native as to the sojourner who sojourns among you.”
Jesus, the Author of Salvation
5 For He did not subject to angels [a](A)the world to come, concerning which we are speaking. 6 But one has testified (B)somewhere, saying,
“(C)What is man, that You remember him?
Or the son of man, that You are concerned about him?
7 (D)You have made [b]him for a little while lower than the angels;
You have crowned him with glory and honor,
[c]And have appointed him over the works of Your hands;
8 (E)You have put all things in subjection under his feet.”
For in subjecting all things to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him. But now (F)we do not yet see all things subjected to him. 9 But we do see Him who was (G)made [d]for a little while lower than the angels—Jesus, (H)because of the suffering of death (I)crowned with glory and honor, so that (J)by the grace of God He might (K)taste death (L)for everyone.
