Adonai-Nissi
Psalm 20
1 For the music director, a psalm of David.
2 May Adonai answer you in the day of trouble!
May the Name of the God of Jacob set you up securely on high.
3 May He send you help from the Sanctuary
and support you from Zion.
4 May He remember all your meal offerings
and accept the fat of your burnt offering. Selah
5 May He grant you your heart’s desire
and fulfill all your plans.
6 We will shout for joy in your victory
and lift up our banners in the Name of our God!
May Adonai fulfill all your petitions.
7 Now I know that Adonai saves His anointed.
He answers him from His holy heaven with saving strength of His right hand.
8 Some have chariots, some have horses,
but we remember the Name of Adonai our God.
9 They have collapsed and fallen,
but we rise up and support each other.
10 Adonai, save the king!
Answer us on the day we call!
Aaronic Benediction
22 Again Adonai spoke to Moses saying, 23 “Speak to Aaron and to his sons saying: Thus you are to bless Bnei-Yisrael, by saying to them:
24 ‘Adonai bless you and keep you!
25 Adonai make His face to shine on you and be gracious to you![a]
26 Adonai turn His face toward you and grant you shalom!’
27 In this way they are to place My Name over Bnei-Yisrael, and so I will bless them.”
Reaping What You Sow
21 He also was saying to them, “Is a lamp put under a basket or a bed? No, shouldn’t it be placed on a lampstand? 22 For there is nothing hidden that will not be revealed, nor anything kept secret except that it would come to light. 23 If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.” 24 Then He continued, “Pay attention to what you hear. With the measure you use, it will be measured to you; and more will be added to you. 25 For whoever has, to him more will be given. And whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.”
