Bless the Lord, whose name is to be praised,
Our Father who art in heaven,
who has given us his laws,
to show us the error of our ways,
Blessed is his son, Christ the Messiah,
who redeemed us from having broken them.
Blessed are you, O Holy Spirit,
who assists us in sinning no more,
and sustains us in the way of the Lord,
grant us wisdom and understanding this day.
Amen.
Apocrypha Reading - God’s own children
1Then the righteous will stand with great confidence
in the presence of those who have oppressed them
and those who make light of their labours.
2When the unrighteousa see them,
they will be shaken with dreadful fear,
and they will be amazed at the unexpected salvation of the righteous.
3They will speak to one another in repentance,
and in anguish of spirit they will groan, and say,
4‘These are persons whom we once held in derision
and made a byword of reproach — fools that we were!
We thought that their lives were madness
and that their end was without honour.
5Why have they been numbered among the children of God?
And why is their lot among the saints?
6So it was we who strayed from the way of truth,
and the light of righteousness did not shine on us,
and the sun did not rise upon us.
