5 Every word of God proves true;
he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.
6 Do not add to his words,
or else he will rebuke you, and you will be found a liar.
7 Two things I ask of you;
do not deny them to me before I die:
8 Remove far from me falsehood and lying;
give me neither poverty nor riches;
feed me with the food that I need,
9 or I shall be full, and deny you,
and say, Who is the Lord?
or I shall be poor, and steal,
and profane the name of my God.

105 Your word is a lantern to my feet ♦︎
and a light upon my path.
106 I have sworn and will fulfil it, ♦︎
to keep your righteous judgements.
107 I am troubled above measure; ♦︎
give me life, O Lord, according to your word.
108 Accept the freewill offering of my mouth, O Lord, ♦︎
and teach me your judgements.
109 My soul is ever in my hand, ♦︎
yet I do not forget your law.
110 The wicked have laid a snare for me, ♦︎
but I have not strayed from your commandments.
111 Your testimonies have I claimed as my heritage for ever; ♦︎
for they are the very joy of my heart.
112 I have applied my heart to fulfil your statutes: ♦︎
always, even to the end.

9Then Jesus* called the twelve together and gave them power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases, 2and he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal. 3He said to them, Take nothing for your journey, no staff, nor bag, nor bread, nor moneynot even an extra tunic. 4Whatever house you enter, stay there, and leave from there. 5Wherever they do not welcome you, as you are leaving that town shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against them. 6They departed and went through the villages, bringing the good news and curing diseases everywhere.
