OLD TESTAMENT:  Deuteronomy 18: 15 - 20   (all)

 

Deut 18:15 (NRSV) The LORD your God will raise up for you a prophet like me
from among your own people; you shall heed such a prophet. 16 This is what
you requested of the LORD your God at Ho'reb on the day of the assembly when
you said: "If I hear the voice of the LORD my God any more, or ever again
see this great fire, I will die." 17 Then the LORD replied to me: "They are
right in what they have said. 18 I will raise up for them a prophet like you
from among their own people; I will put my words in the mouth of the
prophet, who shall speak to them everything that I command. 19 Anyone who
does not heed the words that the prophet shall speak in my name, I myself
will hold accountable. 20 But any prophet who speaks in the name of other
gods, or who presumes to speak in my name a word that I have not commanded
the prophet to speak--that prophet shall die." 

 

 

PSALM 111   (all but Roman Catholic)

 

Psal 111:1 (NRSV) Praise the LORD!

Psalm 95: 1 - 2, 6 - 9  (Roman Catholic)

 

Psal 95:1 (NRSV) O come, let us sing to the LORD; 

let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation! 

2 Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; 

let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise! 

 

6 O come, let us worship and bow down, 

let us kneel before the LORD, our Maker! 

7 For he is our God, 

and we are the people of his pasture, 

and the sheep of his hand. 

O that today you would listen to his voice! 

8 Do not harden your hearts, as at Mer'ibah, 

as on the day at Mas'sah in the wilderness, 

9 when your ancestors tested me, 

and put me to the proof, though they had seen my work.
