Psalm 5:1-12

THE BOOK OF PSALMS.

PSALM 5
To the chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A
Psalm of David.
GIVE ear to my words, O LORD, consider
my meditation.
2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my
King, and my God: for unto thee will I
pray.
3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning,
O LORD; in the morning will I direct my
prayer unto thee, and will look up.
4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure
in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell
with thee.
5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight:
thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak
leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody
and deceitful man.
7 But as for me, I will come into thy house
in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy
fear will I worship toward thy holy
temple.
8 Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness
because of mine enemies; make thy way
straight before my face.
9 For there is no faithfulness in their
mouth; their inward part is very
wickedness; their throat is an open
sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.
10 Destroy thou them, O God; let them
fall by their own counsels; cast them out
in the multitude of their transgressions; for
they have rebelled against thee.
11 But let all those that put their trust in
thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy,
because thou defendest them: let them
also that love thy name be joyful in thee.
12 For thou, LORD, wilt bless the
righteous; with favour wilt thou compass
him as with a shield.

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. LUKE.
CHAPTER 21:

34 ¶ And take heed to yourselves, lest at
any time your hearts be overcharged with
surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of
this life, and so that day come upon you
unawares.
35 For as a snare shall it come on all them
that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always,
that ye may be accounted worthy to
escape all these things that shall come to
pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

CHAPTER 6:

10 To whom shall I speak, and give
warning, that they may hear? behold, their
ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot
hearken: behold, the word of the LORD is
unto them a reproach; they have no delight
in it.

CHAPTER 4
HEAR the word of the LORD, ye children
of Israel: for the LORD hath a controversy
with the inhabitants of the land, because
there is no truth, nor mercy, nor
knowledge of God in the land.

THE BOOK OF THE PROPHET JEREMIAH.
CHAPTER 9:

23 ¶ Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise
man glory in his wisdom, neither let the
mighty man glory in his might, let not the
rich man glory in his riches:
24 But let him that glorieth glory in this,
that he understandeth and knoweth me,
that I am the LORD which exercise
lovingkindness, judgment, and
righteousness, in the earth: for in these
things I delight, saith the LORD.

CHAPTER 2:

MY son, if thou wilt receive my words,
and hide my commandments with thee;
2 So that thou incline thine ear unto
wisdom, and apply thine heart to
understanding;
3 Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and
liftest up thy voice for understanding;
4 If thou seekest her as silver, and
searchest for her as for hid treasures;
5 Then shalt thou understand the fear of
the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.
6 For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his
mouth cometh knowledge and
understanding.

CHAPTER 34:

16 ¶ Seek ye out of the book of the LORD,
and read: no one of these shall fail, none
shall want her mate: for my mouth it hath
commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered
them.
17 And he hath cast the lot for them, and
his hand hath divided it unto them by line:
they shall possess it for ever, from
generation to generation shall they dwell
therein.

without spot, unrebukeable, until the

is the blessed and only Potentate, the King

unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can
see: to whom be honour and power
everlasting. Amen.

3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them

not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of
Christ, who is the image of God, should
shine unto them.

CHAPTER 9:

3 And as he journeyed, he came near
Damascus: and suddenly there shined
round about him a light from heaven:
4 And he fell to the earth, and heard a
voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why
persecutest thou me?
5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And
the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou
persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick
against the pricks.
6 And he trembling and astonished said,
Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And
the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into
the city, and it shall be told thee what thou
must do.
7 And the men which journeyed with him
stood speechless, hearing a voice, but
seeing no man.
8 And Saul arose from the earth; and
when his eyes were opened, he saw no
man: but they led him by the hand, and
brought him into Damascus.
9 And he was three days without sight,
and neither did eat nor drink.

 CHAPTER 22:

6 And it came to pass, that, as I made my
journey, and was come nigh unto
Damascus about noon, suddenly there
shone from heaven a great light round
about me.
7 And I fell unto the ground, and heard a
voice saying unto me, Saul, Saul, why
persecutest thou me?
8 And I answered, Who art thou, Lord?
And he said unto me, I am Jesus of
Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.
9 And they that were with me saw indeed
the light, and were afraid; but they heard
not the voice of him that spake to me.
10 And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And
the Lord said unto me, Arise, and go into
Damascus; and there it shall be told thee
of all things which are appointed for thee
to do.
11 And when I could not see for the glory
of that light, being led by the hand of them
that were with me, I came into Damascus.
12 And one Ananias, a devout man
according to the law, having a good report
of all the Jews which dwelt there,
13 Came unto me, and stood, and said
unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight.
And the same hour I looked up upon him.
14 And he said, The God of our fathers
hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest
know his will, and see that Just One, and
shouldest hear the voice of his mouth.

CHAPTER 26:

13 At midday, O king, I saw in the way a
light from heaven, above the brightness of
the sun, shining round about me and them
which journeyed with me.
14 And when we were all fallen to the
earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me,
and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul,
Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard
for thee to kick against the pricks.
15 And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And
he said, I am Jesus whom thou
persecutest.
16 But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I
have appeared unto thee for this purpose,
to make thee a minister and a witness both
of these things which thou hast seen, and
of those things in the which I will appear
unto thee;

17 Delivering thee from the people, and
from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send
thee,
18 To open their eyes, and to turn them
from darkness to light, and from the power
of Satan unto God, that they may receive
forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among
them which are sanctified by faith that is
in me.

PSALM 33:

11 The counsel of the LORD standeth for
ever, the thoughts of his heart to all
generations.

THE BOOK OF THE PROPHET EZEKIEL.
CHAPTER 3:

18 When I say unto the wicked, Thou
shalt surely die; and thou givest him not
warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked
from his wicked way, to save his life; the
same wicked man shall die in his iniquity;
but his blood will I require at thine hand.
19 Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he
turn not from his wickedness, nor from his
wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity;
but thou hast delivered thy soul.

CHAPTER 33:

7 ¶ So thou, O son of man, I have set thee
a watchman unto the house of Israel;
therefore thou shalt hear the word at my
mouth, and warn them from me.
8 When I say unto the wicked, O wicked
man, thou shalt surely die; if thou dost not
speak to warn the wicked from his way,
that wicked man shall die in his iniquity;
but his blood will I require at thine hand.
9 Nevertheless, if thou warn the wicked of
his way to turn from it; if he do not turn
from his way, he shall die in his iniquity;
but thou hast delivered thy soul.
10 Therefore, O thou son of man, speak
unto the house of Israel; Thus ye speak,
saying, If our transgressions and our sins
be upon us, and we pine away in them,
how should we then live?
11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord
GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of
the wicked; but that the wicked turn from
his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from
your evil ways; for why will ye die, O
house of Israel?

THE ACTS OF THE APOSTLES.

26 Wherefore I take you to record this
