Readings for Celebrating Advent

⁶ His dominion will grow continually,
    and there will be endless peace
bestowed on David’s throne
    and over his kingdom.
He will establish and sustain it
    with justice and integrity
from this time onward and forevermore;
    the zeal of the Lord of hosts will accomplish this.

⁷ The Lord has sent forth his word against Jacob,
    and it has fallen on Israel.
