Scripture Readings for this week.
 The following were the scripture readings for the service this week
Psalter Reading
Psalm 107
1 Give thanks to Yahweh, For he is good,
For his loving kindness endures forever.
2 Let the redeemed by Yahweh say so, Whom he has redeemed from the hand of the adversary, 3 And gathered out of the lands, From the east and from the west, From the north and from the south.
4 They wandered in the wilderness in a desert way. They found no city to live in.
5 Hungry and thirsty, Their soul fainted in them.
6 Then they cried to Yahweh in their trouble, And he delivered them out of their distresses,
7 He led them also by a straight way, That they might go to a city to live in.
8 Let them praise Yahweh for his loving kindness, For his wonderful works to the children of men!
9 For he satisfies the longing soul. He fills the hungry soul with good.
10 Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, Being bound in affliction and iron, 11 Because they rebelled against the words of God, And condemned the counsel of the Most High.
12 Therefore he brought down their heart with labor. They fell down, and there was none to help.
13 Then they cried to Yahweh in their trouble, And he saved them out of their distresses.
14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, And broke their bonds in sunder.
15 Let them praise Yahweh for his loving kindness, For his wonderful works to the children of men!
16 For he has broken the gates of brass, And cut through bars of iron.
17 Fools are afflicted because of their disobedience, And because of their iniquities.
18 Their soul abhors all kinds of food. They draw near to the gates of death.
19 Then they cry to Yahweh in their trouble, He saves them out of their distresses.
20 He sends his word, and heals them, And delivers them from their graves.
21 Let them praise Yahweh for his loving kindness, For his wonderful works to the children of men!
22 Let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, And declare his works with singing.
23 Those who go down to the sea in ships, Who do business in great waters; 24 These see Yahweh’s works, And his wonders in the deep.
25 For he commands, and raises the stormy wind, Which lifts up its waves.
26 They mount up to the sky; they go down again to the depths. Their soul melts away because of trouble.
27 They reel back and forth, and stagger like a drunken man, And are at their wits’ end.
28 Then they cry to Yahweh in their trouble, And he brings them out of their distress.
29 He makes the storm a calm, So that its waves are still.
30 Then they are glad because it is calm, So he brings them to their desired haven.
31 Let them praise Yahweh for his loving kindness, For his wonderful works for the children of men!
32 Let them exalt him also in the assembly of the people, And praise him in the seat of the elders.
33 He turns rivers into a desert, Water springs into a thirsty ground, 34 And a fruitful land into a salt waste, For the wickedness of those who dwell in it.
35 He turns a desert into a pool of water, And a dry land into water springs.
36 There he makes the hungry live, That they may prepare a city to live in, 37 Sow fields, plant vineyards, And reap the fruits of increase.
38 He blesses them also, so that they are multiplied greatly. He doesn’t allow their cattle to decrease.
39 Again, they are diminished and bowed down Through oppression, trouble, and sorrow.
40 He pours contempt on princes, And causes them to wander in a trackless waste.
41 Yet he lifts the needy out of their affliction, And increases their families like a flock.
42 The upright will see it, and be glad. All the wicked will shut their mouths.
43 Whoever is wise will pay attention to these things. They will consider the loving kindnesses of Yahweh.
Old Testament Lesson
Hosea 11:1-11
1 “When Israel was a child, then I loved him, And called my son out of Egypt. 2 They called to them, so they went from them. They sacrificed to the Baals, And burned incense to engraved images.
3 Yet I taught Ephraim to walk. I took them by his arms; But they didn’t know that I healed them.
4 I drew them with cords of a man, with ties of love; And I was to them like those who lift up the yoke on their necks; And I bent down to him and I fed him.
5 “They won’t return into the land of Egypt; But the Assyrian will be their king, Because they refused to repent.
6 The sword will fall on their cities, And will consume their gate bars, And will put an end to their plans.
7 My people are determined to turn from me. Though they call to the Most High, He certainly won’t exalt them.
8 “How can I give you up, Ephraim? How can I hand you over, Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I make you like Zeboiim?
My heart is turned within me, My compassion is aroused.
9 I will not execute the fierceness of my anger. I will not return to destroy Ephraim: For I am God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of you; And I will not come in wrath.
10 They will walk after Yahweh, Who will roar like a lion; For he will roar, and the children will come trembling from the west.
11 They will come trembling like a bird out of Egypt, And like a dove out of the land of Assyria;
And I will settle them in their houses,” says Yahweh.
Epistle Lesson Colossians 3:1-11 1 If then you were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God. 2 Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth. 3 For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, our life, is revealed, then you will also be revealed with him in glory. 5 Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, depraved passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry; 6 for which things’ sake the wrath of God comes on the sons of disobedience. 7 You also once walked in those, when you lived in them; 8 but now you also put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth. 9 Don’t lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his doings, 10 and have put on the new man, that is being renewed in knowledge after the image of his Creator, 11 where there can’t be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, bondservant, freeman; but Christ is all, and in all. Gospel Lesson Luke 12:13-21 13 One of the multitude said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.” 14 But he said to him, “Man, who made me a judge or an arbitrator over you?” 15 He said to them, “Beware! Keep yourselves from covetousness, for a man’s life doesn’t consist of the abundance of the things which he possesses.” 16 He spoke a parable to them, saying, “The ground of a certain rich man brought forth abundantly. 17 He reasoned within himself, saying, ‘What will I do, because I don’t have room to store my crops?’ 18 He said, ‘This is what I will do. I will pull down my barns, and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. 19 I will tell my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years. Take your ease, eat, drink, be merry.”’ 20 “But God said to him, ‘You foolish one, tonight your soul is required of you. The things which you have prepared — whose will they be?’ 21 So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.” |
