PSALM 5:
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.

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 20:
9 Then I said, I will not make mention of
him, nor speak any more in his name. But
his word was in mine heart as a burning
fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary
with forbearing, and I could not stay.
THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. JOHN.
CHAPTER 7:
21 Jesus answered and said unto them, I
have done one work, and ye all marvel.
22 Moses therefore gave unto you
circumcision; (not because it is of Moses,
but of the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath
day circumcise a man.
23 If a man on the sabbath day receive
circumcision, that the law of Moses
should not be broken; are ye angry at me,
because I have made a man every whit
whole on the sabbath day?
24 Judge not according to the appearance,
but judge righteous judgment.
THE EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO THE GALATIANS.
CHAPTER 3:
24 Wherefore the law was our
schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that
we might be justified by faith.
25 But after that faith is come, we are no
longer under a schoolmaster.
THE EPISTLE OF PAUL TO TITUS.
CHAPTER 3:
5 Not by works of righteousness which we
have done, but according to his mercy he
saved us, by the washing of regeneration,
and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
6 Which he shed on us abundantly through
Jesus Christ our Saviour;
7 That being justified by his grace, we
should be made heirs according to the
hope of eternal life.

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.

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.

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 3:
[11] My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction:
[12] For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.
CHAPTER 22:
6 Train up a child in the way he should
go: and when he is old, he will not depart
from it.
CHAPTER 13:
24 He that spareth his rod hateth his son:
but he that loveth him chasteneth him
betimes.
CHAPTER 17:
10 A reproof entereth more into a wise
man than an hundred stripes into a fool.
CHAPTER 19:
18 Chasten thy son while there is hope,
and let not thy soul spare for his crying.
CHAPTER 20:
30 The blueness of a wound cleanseth
away evil: so do stripes the inward parts
of the belly.
CHAPTER 22:
15 Foolishness is bound in the heart of a
child; but the rod of correction shall drive
it far from him.
CHAPTER 23:
13 Withhold not correction from the child:
for if thou beatest him with the rod, he
shall not die.
14 Thou shalt beat him with the rod, and
shalt deliver his soul from hell.
CHAPTER 29:
15 The rod and reproof give wisdom: but
a child left to himself bringeth his mother
to shame.
17 Correct thy son, and he shall give thee
rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy
soul.
THE EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO THE HEBREWS.
CHAPTER 12:
8 But if ye be without chastisement,
whereof all are partakers, then are ye
bastards, and not sons.
9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our
flesh which corrected us, and we gave
them reverence: shall we not much rather
be in subjection unto the Father of spirits,
and live?
10 For they verily for a few days
chastened us after their own pleasure; but
he for our profit, that we might be
partakers of his holiness.
11 Now no chastening for the present
seemeth to be joyous, but grievous:
nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the
peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them
which are exercised thereby.

CHAPTER 37:
AT this also my heart trembleth, and is
moved out of his place.
2 Hear attentively the noise of his voice,
and the sound that goeth out of his mouth.
3 He directeth it under the whole heaven,
and his lightning unto the ends of the
earth.
4 After it a voice roareth: he thundereth
with the voice of his excellency; and he
will not stay them when his voice is heard.

man pluck them out of my hand.

chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock:
if any man hear my voice, and open the
door, I will come in to him, and will sup
with him, and he with me.
21 To him that overcometh will I grant to
sit with me in my throne, even as I also
overcame, and am set down with my
Father in his throne.
22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what
the Spirit saith unto the churches.

CHAPTER 4:
4 He taught me also, and said unto me, Let
thine heart retain my words: keep my
commandments, and live.
5 Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it
not; neither decline from the words of my
mouth.
6 Forsake her not, and she shall preserve
thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.
7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore
get wisdom: and with all thy getting get
understanding.

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.
6 ¶ My people are destroyed for lack of
knowledge: because thou hast rejected
knowledge, I will also reject thee, that
thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou
hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will
also forget thy children.
THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. JOHN.

him must worship him in spirit and in
truth.
CHAPTER 8:
24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall
die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I
am he, ye shall die in your sins.
25 Then said they unto him, Who art
thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the
same that I said unto you from the beginning.
26 I have many things to say and to judge
of you: but he that sent me is true; and I
speak to the world those things which I
have heard of him.
27 They understood not that he spake to
them of the Father.

CHAPTER 23:
23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees,
hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and

weightier matters of the law, judgment,
mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have
done, and not to leave the other undone.

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.

gospel is preached unto you.
