The First Lesson 2 Samuel 23:1-7Reader A Reading from the Second Book of the Prophet Samuel.These are the last words of David:

The oracle of David, son of Jesse,the oracle of the man whom God exalted,

the anointed of the God of Jacob,the favorite of the Strong One of Israel:

The spirit of the LORD speaks through me,his word is upon my tongue.

The God of Israel has spoken,the Rock of Israel has said to me:

One who rules over people justly,ruling in the fear of God,

is like the light of morning,like the sun rising on a cloudless morning,

gleaming from the rain on the grassy land.Is not my house like this with God?

For he has made with me an everlasting covenant,ordered in all things and secure.

Will he not cause to prosperall my help and my desire?

But the godless are all like thorns that are thrown away;for they cannot be picked up with the hand;

Psalm 132:1-13 BCP 7851

LORD, remember David, *and all the hardships he endured;

2

How he swore an oath to the LORD *and vowed a vow to the Mighty One of Jacob:

3

"I will not come under the roof of my house, *nor climb up into my bed;

4

I will not allow my eyes to sleep, *nor let my eyelids slumber;

5

Until I find a place for the LORD, *a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob."

6

"The ark! We heard it was in Ephratah; *we found it in the fields of Jearim.

7

Let us go to God's dwelling place; *

let us fall upon our knees before his footstool."8

Arise, O LORD, into your resting-place, *you and the ark of your strength.

9

Let your priests be clothed with righteousness; *let your faithful people sing with joy.

Pilate entered the headquarters again, summoned Jesus, and asked him, "Are you the Kingof the Jews?" Jesus answered, "Do you ask this on your own, or did others tell you aboutme?" Pilate replied, "I am not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests havehanded you over to me. What have you done?" Jesus answered, "My kingdom is not fromthis world. If my kingdom were from this world, my followers would be fighting to keepme from being handed over to the Jews. But as it is, my kingdom is not from here." Pilateasked him, "So you are a king?" Jesus answered, "You say that I am a king. For this I wasborn, and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs tothe truth listens to my voice."
