Ps. 95.

1	O come, let us sing unto the Lord; let us heartily rejoice in the strength of our salvation.
2	Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and shew ourselves glad in him with psalms.
3	For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods.
4	In his hand are all the corners of the earth, and the strength of the hills is his also.
5	The sea is his, and he made it; and his hands prepared the dry land.
6	O come, let us worship and fall down, and kneel before the Lord our Maker.
7	For he is the Lord our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand.
8	Today if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts: as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness;
9	When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works.
10	Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their hearts, for they have not known my ways;
11	Unto whom I sware in my wrath, that they should not enter into my rest.
†	Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Ps. 68.

1	Let God arise, and let his enemies be scattered; let them also that hate him flee before him.
2	Like as the smoke vanisheth, so shalt thou drive them away; and like as wax melteth at the fire, so let the ungodly perish at the presence of God.
3	But let the righteous be glad and rejoice before God; let them also be merry and joyful.
4	O sing unto God, and sing praises unto his Name: magnify him that rideth upon the heavens, as it were upon an horse; praise him in his Name JAH, and rejoice before him.
5	He is a father of the fatherless, and defendeth the cause of the widows; even God in his holy habitation.
6	He is the God that maketh men to be of one mind in an house, and bringeth the prisoners out of captivity; but letteth the runagates continue in scarceness.
7	O God, when thou wentest forth before the people, when thou wentest through the wilderness;
8	The earth shook, and the heavens dropped at the presence of God: even as Sinai also was moved at the presence of God, who is the God of Israel.
9	Thou, O God, sentest a gracious rain upon thine inheritance, and refreshedst it when it was weary.
10	Thy congregation shall dwell therein; for thou, O God, hast of thy goodness prepared for the poor.
11	The Lord gave the word; great was the company of the preachers.
12	Kings with their armies did flee, and were discomfited, and they of the household divided the spoil.
13	Though ye have lien among the pots, yet shall ye be as the wings of a dove that is covered with silver wings, and her feathers like gold.
14	When the Almighty scattered kings for their sake, then were they as white as snow in Salmon.
15	As the hill of Basan, so is God's hill; even an high hill, as the hill of Basan.
16	Why hop ye so, ye high hills? this is God's hill, in the which it pleaseth him to dwell; yea, the Lord will abide in it for ever.
17	The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of angels; and the Lord is among them, as in the holy place of Sinai.
18	Thou art gone up on high, thou hast led captivity captive, and received gifts for men; yea, even for thine enemies, that the Lord God might dwell among them.
19	Praised be the Lord daily, even the God who helpeth us, and poureth his benefits upon us.
20	He is our God, even the God of whom cometh salvation: God is the Lord, by whom we escape death.
21	God shall wound the head of his enemies, and the hairy scalp of such a one as goeth on still in his wickedness.
22	The Lord hath said, I will bring my people again, as I did from Basan; mine own will I bring again, as I did sometime from the deep of the sea.
23	That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine enemies, and that the tongue of thy dogs may be red through the same.
24	It is well seen, O God, how thou goest; how thou, my God and King, goest in the sanctuary.
25	The singers go before, the minstrels follow after: in the midst are the damsels playing with the timbrels.
26	Give thanks, O Israel, unto God the Lord in the congregations, from the ground of the heart.
27	There is little Benjamin their ruler, and the princes of Judah their counsel; the princes of Zabulon, and the princes of Nephthali.
28	Thy God hath sent forth strength for thee; stablish the thing, O God, that thou hast wrought in us,
29	For thy temple's sake at Jerusalem: so shall kings bring presents unto thee.
30	When the company of the spearmen and multitude of the mighty are scattered abroad among the beasts of the people, so that they humbly bring pieces of silver: and when he hath scattered the people that delight in war;
31	Then shall the princes come out of Egypt; the Morians' land shall soon stretch out her hands unto God.
32	Sing unto God, O ye kingdoms of the earth; O sing praises unto the Lord;
33	Who sitteth in the heavens over all from the beginning: lo, he doth send out his voice, yea, and that a mighty voice.
34	Ascribe ye the power to God over Israel; his worship and strength is in the clouds.
35	O God, wonderful art thou in thy holy places: even the God of Israel, he will give strength and power unto his people; blessed be God.
†	Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Here beginneth the 11th chapter of Numbers.

1	And when the people complained, it displeased the Lord: and the Lord heard it; and his anger was kindled; and the fire of the Lord burnt among them, and consumed them that were in the uttermost parts of the camp.
2	And the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto the Lord, the fire was quenched.
3	And he called the name of the place Taberah: because the fire of the Lord burnt among them.
4	And the mixt multitude that was among them fell a lusting: and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, Who shall give us flesh to eat?
5	We remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt freely; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlick:
6	But now our soul is dried away: there is nothing at all, beside this manna, before our eyes.
7	And the manna was as coriander seed, and the colour thereof as the colour of bdellium.
8	And the people went about, and gathered it, and ground it in mills, or beat it in a mortar, and baked it in pans, and made cakes of it: and the taste of it was as the taste of fresh oil.
9	And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon it.
10	Then Moses heard the people weep throughout their families, every man in the door of his tent: and the anger of the Lord was kindled greatly; Moses also was displeased.
11	And Moses said unto the Lord, Wherefore hast thou afflicted thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favour in thy sight, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me?
12	Have I conceived all this people? have I begotten them, that thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing father beareth the sucking child, unto the land which thou swarest unto their fathers?
13	Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat.
14	I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me.
15	And if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray thee, out of hand, if I have found favour in thy sight; and let me not see my wretchedness.
16	And the Lord said unto Moses, Gather unto me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and bring them unto the tabernacle of the congregation, that they may stand there with thee.
17	And I will come down and talk with thee there: and I will take of the spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear it not thyself alone.
18	And say thou unto the people, Sanctify yourselves against to morrow, and ye shall eat flesh: for ye have wept in the ears of the Lord, saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for it was well with us in Egypt: therefore the Lord will give you flesh, and ye shall eat.
19	Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days;
20	But even a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it be loathsome unto you: because that ye have despised the Lord which is among you, and have wept before him, saying, Why came we forth out of Egypt?
21	And Moses said, The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand footmen; and thou hast said, I will give them flesh, that they may eat a whole month.
22	Shall the flocks and the herds be slain for them, to suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to suffice them?
23	And the Lord said unto Moses, Is the Lord's hand waxed short? thou shalt see now whether my word shall come to pass unto thee or not.
24	And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the Lord, and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the tabernacle.
25	And the Lord came down in a cloud, and spake unto him, and took of the spirit that was upon him, and gave it unto the seventy elders: and it came to pass, that, when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not cease.
26	But there remained two of the men in the camp, the name of the one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad: and the spirit rested upon them; and they were of them that were written, but went not out unto the tabernacle: and they prophesied in the camp.
27	And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad do prophesy in the camp.
28	And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his young men, answered and said, My lord Moses, forbid them.
29	And Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? would God that all the Lord's people were prophets, and that the Lord would put his spirit upon them!
30	And Moses gat him into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
31	And there went forth a wind from the Lord, and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, as it were a day's journey on this side, and as it were a day's journey on the other side, round about the camp, and as it were two cubits high upon the face of the earth.
32	And the people stood up all that day, and all that night, and all the next day, and they gathered the quails: he that gathered least gathered ten homers: and they spread them all abroad for themselves round about the camp.
33	And while the flesh was yet between their teeth, ere it was chewed, the wrath of the Lord was kindled against the people, and the Lord smote the people with a very great plague.
34	And he called the name of that place Kibroth-hattaavah: because there they buried the people that lusted.
35	And the people journeyed from Kibroth-hattaavah unto Hazeroth; and abode at Hazeroth.

Here endeth the first lesson.

O all ye Works of the Lord, bless ye the Lord:
