1 Kings 3, Ephesians 1, Ezekiel 34, Psalm 83, 84

 

1 Kings 3,

1 Solomon made an alliance with Pharaoh king of Egypt and married his daughter. He brought her to the City of David until he finished building his palace and the temple of the LORD, and the wall around Jerusalem.
 
2 The people, however, were still sacrificing at the high places, because a temple had not yet been built for the Name of the LORD.
 
3 Solomon showed his love for the LORD by walking according to the statutes of his father David, except that he offered sacrifices and burned incense on the high places.
 
4 The king went to Gibeon to offer sacrifices, for that was the most important high place, and Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on that altar.
 
5 At Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon during the night in a dream, and God said, "Ask for whatever you want me to give you."
 
6 Solomon answered, "You have shown great kindness to your servant, my father David, because he was faithful to you and righteous and upright in heart. You have continued this great kindness to him and have given him a son to sit on his throne this very day.
 
7 "Now, O LORD my God, you have made your servant king in place of my father David. But I am only a little child and do not know how to carry out my duties.
 
8 Your servant is here among the people you have chosen, a great people, too numerous to count or number.
 
9 So give your servant a discerning heart to govern your people and to distinguish between right and wrong. For who is able to govern this great people of yours?"
 
10 The Lord was pleased that Solomon had asked for this.
 
11 So God said to him, "Since you have asked for this and not for long life or wealth for yourself, nor have asked for the death of your enemies but for discernment in administering justice,
 
12 I will do what you have asked. I will give you a wise and discerning heart, so that there will never have been anyone like you, nor will there ever be.
 
13 Moreover, I will give you what you have not asked for-both riches and honor-so that in your lifetime you will have no equal among kings.
 
14 And if you walk in my ways and obey my statutes and commands as David your father did, I will give you a long life."
 
15 Then Solomon awoke-and he realized it had been a dream. He returned to Jerusalem, stood before the ark of the Lord's covenant and sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings. Then he gave a feast for all his court.
 
16 Now two prostitutes came to the king and stood before him.
 
17 One of them said, "My lord, this woman and I live in the same house. I had a baby while she was there with me.
 
18 The third day after my child was born, this woman also had a baby. We were alone; there was no one in the house but the two of us.
 
19 "During the night this woman's son died because she lay on him.
 
20 So she got up in the middle of the night and took my son from my side while I your servant was asleep. She put him by her breast and put her dead son by my breast.
 
21 The next morning, I got up to nurse my son-and he was dead! But when I looked at him closely in the morning light, I saw that it wasn't the son I had borne."
 
22 The other woman said, "No! The living one is my son; the dead one is yours." But the first one insisted, "No! The dead one is yours; the living one is mine." And so they argued before the king.
 
23 The king said, "This one says, 'My son is alive and your son is dead,' while that one says, 'No! Your son is dead and mine is alive.' "
 
24 Then the king said, "Bring me a sword." So they brought a sword for the king.
 
25 He then gave an order: "Cut the living child in two and give half to one and half to the other."
 
26 The woman whose son was alive was filled with compassion for her son and said to the king, "Please, my lord, give her the living baby! Don't kill him!" But the other said, "Neither I nor you shall have him. Cut him in two!"
 
27 Then the king gave his ruling: "Give the living baby to the first woman. Do not kill him; she is his mother."
 
28 When all Israel heard the verdict the king had given, they held the king in awe, because they saw that he had wisdom from God to administer justice.
 

    

 


Ephesians 1,

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, To the saints in Ephesus, the faithful in Christ Jesus:
 
2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
 
3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.
 
4 For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love
 
5 he predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will-
 
6 to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves.
 
7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace
 
8 that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding.
 
9 And he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ,
 
10 to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment-to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ.
 
11 In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will,
 
12 in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory.
 
13 And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit,
 
14 who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession-to the praise of his glory.
 
15 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints,
 
16 I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers.
 
17 I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better.
 
18 I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints,
 
19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength,
 
20 which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms,
 
21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.
 
22 And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church,
 
23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.

 

 

Ezekiel 34,

1 The word of the LORD came to me:
 
2 "Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel; prophesy and say to them: 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Woe to the shepherds of Israel who only take care of themselves! Should not shepherds take care of the flock?
 
3 You eat the curds, clothe yourselves with the wool and slaughter the choice animals, but you do not take care of the flock.
 
4 You have not strengthened the weak or healed the sick or bound up the injured. You have not brought back the strays or searched for the lost. You have ruled them harshly and brutally.
 
5 So they were scattered because there was no shepherd, and when they were scattered they became food for all the wild animals.
 
6 My sheep wandered over all the mountains and on every high hill. They were scattered over the whole earth, and no one searched or looked for them.
 
7 " 'Therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the LORD :
 
8 As surely as I live, declares the Sovereign LORD, because my flock lacks a shepherd and so has been plundered and has become food for all the wild animals, and because my shepherds did not search for my flock but cared for themselves rather than for my flock,
 
9 therefore, O shepherds, hear the word of the LORD :
 
10 This is what the Sovereign LORD says: I am against the shepherds and will hold them accountable for my flock. I will remove them from tending the flock so that the shepherds can no longer feed themselves. I will rescue my flock from their mouths, and it will no longer be food for them.
 
11 " 'For this is what the Sovereign LORD says: I myself will search for my sheep and look after them.
 
12 As a shepherd looks after his scattered flock when he is with them, so will I look after my sheep. I will rescue them from all the places where they were scattered on a day of clouds and darkness.
 
13 I will bring them out from the nations and gather them from the countries, and I will bring them into their own land. I will pasture them on the mountains of Israel, in the ravines and in all the settlements in the land.
 
14 I will tend them in a good pasture, and the mountain heights of Israel will be their grazing land. There they will lie down in good grazing land, and there they will feed in a rich pasture on the mountains of Israel.
 
15 I myself will tend my sheep and have them lie down, declares the Sovereign LORD.
 
16 I will search for the lost and bring back the strays. I will bind up the injured and strengthen the weak, but the sleek and the strong I will destroy. I will shepherd the flock with justice.
 
17 " 'As for you, my flock, this is what the Sovereign LORD says: I will judge between one sheep and another, and between rams and goats.
 
18 Is it not enough for you to feed on the good pasture? Must you also trample the rest of your pasture with your feet? Is it not enough for you to drink clear water? Must you also muddy the rest with your feet?
 
19 Must my flock feed on what you have trampled and drink what you have muddied with your feet?
 
20 " 'Therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says to them: See, I myself will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep.
 
21 Because you shove with flank and shoulder, butting all the weak sheep with your horns until you have driven them away,
 
22 I will save my flock, and they will no longer be plundered. I will judge between one sheep and another.
 
23 I will place over them one shepherd, my servant David, and he will tend them; he will tend them and be their shepherd.
 
24 I the LORD will be their God, and my servant David will be prince among them. I the LORD have spoken.
 
25 " 'I will make a covenant of peace with them and rid the land of wild beasts so that they may live in the desert and sleep in the forests in safety.
 
26 I will bless them and the places surrounding my hill. I will send down showers in season; there will be showers of blessing.
 
27 The trees of the field will yield their fruit and the ground will yield its crops; the people will be secure in their land. They will know that I am the LORD, when I break the bars of their yoke and rescue them from the hands of those who enslaved them.
 
28 They will no longer be plundered by the nations, nor will wild animals devour them. They will live in safety, and no one will make them afraid.
 
29 I will provide for them a land renowned for its crops, and they will no longer be victims of famine in the land or bear the scorn of the nations.
 
30 Then they will know that I, the LORD their God, am with them and that they, the house of Israel, are my people, declares the Sovereign LORD.
 
31 You my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, are people, and I am your God, declares the Sovereign LORD.' "
 

    

 

 

Psalm 83, 84

1 O God, do not keep silent; be not quiet, O God, be not still.
 
2 See how your enemies are astir, how your foes rear their heads.
 
3 With cunning they conspire against your people; they plot against those you cherish.
 
4 "Come," they say, "let us destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel be remembered no more."
 
5 With one mind they plot together; they form an alliance against you-
 
6 the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, of Moab and the Hagrites,
 
7 Gebal, Ammon and Amalek, Philistia, with the people of Tyre.
 
8 Even Assyria has joined them to lend strength to the descendants of Lot. Selah
 
9 Do to them as you did to Midian, as you did to Sisera and Jabin at the river Kishon,
 
10 who perished at Endor and became like refuse on the ground.
 
11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
 
12 who said, "Let us take possession of the pasturelands of God."
 
13 Make them like tumbleweed, O my God, like chaff before the wind.
 
14 As fire consumes the forest or a flame sets the mountains ablaze,
 
15 so pursue them with your tempest and terrify them with your storm.
 
16 Cover their faces with shame so that men will seek your name, O LORD.
 
17 May they ever be ashamed and dismayed; may they perish in disgrace.
 
18 Let them know that you, whose name is the LORD-that you alone are the Most High over all the earth.
 

    
1 How lovely is your dwelling place, O LORD Almighty!
 
2 My soul yearns, even faints, for the courts of the LORD; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.
 
3 Even the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young-a place near your altar, O LORD Almighty, my King and my God.
 
4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house; they are ever praising you. Selah
 
5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you, who have set their hearts on pilgrimage.
 
6 As they pass through the Valley of Baca, they make it a place of springs; the autumn rains also cover it with pools.
 
7 They go from strength to strength, till each appears before God in Zion.
 
8 Hear my prayer, O LORD God Almighty; listen to me, O God of Jacob. Selah
 
9 Look upon our shield, O God; look with favor on your anointed one.
 
10 Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
 
11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless.
 
12 O LORD Almighty, blessed is the man who trusts in you.
