Psalm 66
2May God have mercy on us and bless us. May he shine his countenance upon us, and may he have mercy on us. 3So may we know your way upon the earth, your salvation among all nations. 4Let the peoples confess to you, O God. Let all the peoples confess to you. 5May the nations rejoice and exult. For you judge the peoples with equity, and you direct the nations on earth. 6Let the peoples confess to you, O God. Let all the peoples confess to you. 7The earth has provided her fruit. May God, our God, bless us. 8May God bless us, and may all the ends of the earth fear him.
John 12:44-50
44But Jesus cried out and said: “Whoever believes in me, does not believe in me, but in him who sent me. 45And whoever sees me, sees him who sent me. 46I have arrived as a light to the world, so that all who believe in me might not remain in darkness. 47And if anyone has heard my words and not kept them, I do not judge him. For I did not come so that I may judge the world, but so that I may save the world. 48Whoever despises me and does not accept my words has one who judges him. The word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him on the last day. 49For I am not speaking from myself, but from the Father who sent me. He gave a commandment to me as to what I should say and how I should speak. 50And I know that his commandment is eternal life. Therefore, the things that I speak, just as the Father has said to me, so also do I speak.”
