2 Samuel 12, 2 Corinthians 5, Ezekiel 19, Psalm 64, 65

 

2 Samuel 12,

1 The LORD sent Nathan to David. When he came to him, he said, "There were two men in a certain town, one rich and the other poor.
 
2 The rich man had a very large number of sheep and cattle,
 
3 but the poor man had nothing except one little ewe lamb he had bought. He raised it, and it grew up with him and his children. It shared his food, drank from his cup and even slept in his arms. It was like a daughter to him.
 
4 "Now a traveler came to the rich man, but the rich man refrained from taking one of his own sheep or cattle to prepare a meal for the traveler who had come to him. Instead, he took the ewe lamb that belonged to the poor man and prepared it for the one who had come to him."
 
5 David burned with anger against the man and said to Nathan, "As surely as the LORD lives, the man who did this deserves to die!
 
6 He must pay for that lamb four times over, because he did such a thing and had no pity."
 
7 Then Nathan said to David, "You are the man! This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: 'I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you from the hand of Saul.
 
8 I gave your master's house to you, and your master's wives into your arms. I gave you the house of Israel and Judah. And if all this had been too little, I would have given you even more.
 
9 Why did you despise the word of the LORD by doing what is evil in his eyes? You struck down Uriah the Hittite with the sword and took his wife to be your own. You killed him with the sword of the Ammonites.
 
10 Now, therefore, the sword will never depart from your house, because you despised me and took the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your own.'
 
11 "This is what the LORD says: 'Out of your own household I am going to bring calamity upon you. Before your very eyes I will take your wives and give them to one who is close to you, and he will lie with your wives in broad daylight.
 
12 You did it in secret, but I will do this thing in broad daylight before all Israel.' "
 
13 Then David said to Nathan, "I have sinned against the LORD." Nathan replied, "The LORD has taken away your sin. You are not going to die.
 
14 But because by doing this you have made the enemies of the LORD show utter contempt, the son born to you will die."
 
15 After Nathan had gone home, the LORD struck the child that Uriah's wife had borne to David, and he became ill.
 
16 David pleaded with God for the child. He fasted and went into his house and spent the nights lying on the ground.
 
17 The elders of his household stood beside him to get him up from the ground, but he refused, and he would not eat any food with them.
 
18 On the seventh day the child died. David's servants were afraid to tell him that the child was dead, for they thought, "While the child was still living, we spoke to David but he would not listen to us. How can we tell him the child is dead? He may do something desperate."
 
19 David noticed that his servants were whispering among themselves and he realized the child was dead. "Is the child dead?" he asked. "Yes," they replied, "he is dead."
 
20 Then David got up from the ground. After he had washed, put on lotions and changed his clothes, he went into the house of the LORD and worshiped. Then he went to his own house, and at his request they served him food, and he ate.
 
21 His servants asked him, "Why are you acting this way? While the child was alive, you fasted and wept, but now that the child is dead, you get up and eat!"
 
22 He answered, "While the child was still alive, I fasted and wept. I thought, 'Who knows? The LORD may be gracious to me and let the child live.'
 
23 But now that he is dead, why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me."
 
24 Then David comforted his wife Bathsheba, and he went to her and lay with her. She gave birth to a son, and they named him Solomon. The LORD loved him;
 
25 and because the LORD loved him, he sent word through Nathan the prophet to name him Jedidiah.
 
26 Meanwhile Joab fought against Rabbah of the Ammonites and captured the royal citadel.
 
27 Joab then sent messengers to David, saying, "I have fought against Rabbah and taken its water supply.
 
28 Now muster the rest of the troops and besiege the city and capture it. Otherwise I will take the city, and it will be named after me."
 
29 So David mustered the entire army and went to Rabbah, and attacked and captured it.
 
30 He took the crown from the head of their king-its weight was a talent of gold, and it was set with precious stones-and it was placed on David's head. He took a great quantity of plunder from the city
 
31 and brought out the people who were there, consigning them to labor with saws and with iron picks and axes, and he made them work at brickmaking. He did this to all the Ammonite towns. Then David and his entire army returned to Jerusalem.
 

    

 


2 Corinthians 5,

1 Now we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands.
 
2 Meanwhile we groan, longing to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling,
 
3 because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked.
 
4 For while we are in this tent, we groan and are burdened, because we do not wish to be unclothed but to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.
 
5 Now it is God who has made us for this very purpose and has given us the Spirit as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.
 
6 Therefore we are always confident and know that as long as we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord.
 
7 We live by faith, not by sight.
 
8 We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord.
 
9 So we make it our goal to please him, whether we are at home in the body or away from it.
 
10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.
 
11 Since, then, we know what it is to fear the Lord, we try to persuade men. What we are is plain to God, and I hope it is also plain to your conscience.
 
12 We are not trying to commend ourselves to you again, but are giving you an opportunity to take pride in us, so that you can answer those who take pride in what is seen rather than in what is in the heart.
 
13 If we are out of our mind, it is for the sake of God; if we are in our right mind, it is for you.
 
14 For Christ's love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died.
 
15 And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.
 
16 So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer.
 
17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!
 
18 All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation:
 
19 that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.
 
20 We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God.
 
21 God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
 

    

 


Ezekiel 19,

1 "Take up a lament concerning the princes of Israel
 
2 and say: " 'What a lioness was your mother among the lions! She lay down among the young lions and reared her cubs.
 
3 She brought up one of her cubs, and he became a strong lion. He learned to tear the prey and he devoured men.
 
4 The nations heard about him, and he was trapped in their pit. They led him with hooks to the land of Egypt.
 
5 " 'When she saw her hope unfulfilled, her expectation gone, she took another of her cubs and made him a strong lion.
 
6 He prowled among the lions, for he was now a strong lion. He learned to tear the prey and he devoured men.
 
7 He broke down their strongholds and devastated their towns. The land and all who were in it were terrified by his roaring.
 
8 Then the nations came against him, those from regions round about. They spread their net for him, and he was trapped in their pit.
 
9 With hooks they pulled him into a cage and brought him to the king of Babylon. They put him in prison, so his roar was heard no longer on the mountains of Israel.
 
10 " 'Your mother was like a vine in your vineyard planted by the water; it was fruitful and full of branches because of abundant water.
 
11 Its branches were strong, fit for a ruler's scepter. It towered high above the thick foliage, conspicuous for its height and for its many branches.
 
12 But it was uprooted in fury and thrown to the ground. The east wind made it shrivel, it was stripped of its fruit; its strong branches withered and fire consumed them.
 
13 Now it is planted in the desert, in a dry and thirsty land.
 
14 Fire spread from one of its main branches and consumed its fruit. No strong branch is left on it fit for a ruler's scepter.' This is a lament and is to be used as a lament."
 

    

 

 

Psalm 64, 65

1 Hear me, O God, as I voice my complaint; protect my life from the threat of the enemy.
 
2 Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from that noisy crowd of evildoers.
 
3 They sharpen their tongues like swords and aim their words like deadly arrows.
 
4 They shoot from ambush at the innocent man; they shoot at him suddenly, without fear.
 
5 They encourage each other in evil plans, they talk about hiding their snares; they say, "Who will see them?"
 
6 They plot injustice and say, "We have devised a perfect plan!" Surely the mind and heart of man are cunning.
 
7 But God will shoot them with arrows; suddenly they will be struck down.
 
8 He will turn their own tongues against them and bring them to ruin; all who see them will shake their heads in scorn.
 
9 All mankind will fear; they will proclaim the works of God and ponder what he has done.
 
10 Let the righteous rejoice in the LORD and take refuge in him; let all the upright in heart praise him!
 

    
1 Praise awaits you, O God, in Zion; to you our vows will be fulfilled.
 
2 O you who hear prayer, to you all men will come.
 
3 When we were overwhelmed by sins, you forgave our transgressions.
 
4 Blessed are those you choose and bring near to live in your courts! We are filled with the good things of your house, of your holy temple.
 
5 You answer us with awesome deeds of righteousness, O God our Savior, the hope of all the ends of the earth and of the farthest seas,
 
6 who formed the mountains by your power, having armed yourself with strength,
 
7 who stilled the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the turmoil of the nations.
 
8 Those living far away fear your wonders; where morning dawns and evening fades you call forth songs of joy.
 
9 You care for the land and water it; you enrich it abundantly. The streams of God are filled with water to provide the people with grain, for so you have ordained it.
 
10 You drench its furrows and level its ridges; you soften it with showers and bless its crops.
 
11 You crown the year with your bounty, and your carts overflow with abundance.
 
12 The grasslands of the desert overflow; the hills are clothed with gladness.
 
13 The meadows are covered with flocks and the valleys are mantled with grain; they shout for joy and sing.
