2 Samuel 23:1-7

23Now these are the last words of David: The oracle of David, son of Jesse, the oracle of the man whom God exalted, the anointed of the God of Jacob, the favorite of the Strong One of Israel: 2The spirit of the Lord speaks through me, his word is upon my tongue. 3The God of Israel has spoken, the Rock of Israel has said to me: One who rules over people justly, ruling in the fear of God, 4is like the light of morning, like the sun rising on a cloudless morning, gleaming from the rain on the grassy land. 5Is not my house like this with God? For he has made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things and secure. Will he not cause to prosper all my help and my desire? 6But the godless are all like thorns that are thrown away; for they cannot be picked up with the hand; 7to touch them one uses an iron bar or the shaft of a spear. And they are entirely consumed in fire on the spot.

Psalm 132

1O Lord, remember in David’s favor all the hardships he endured;

2how he swore to the Lord and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob,

3“I will not enter my house or get into my bed;

4I will not give sleep to my eyes or slumber to my eyelids,

5until I find a place for the Lord, a dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.”

6We heard of it in Ephrathah; we found it in the fields of Jaar.

7“Let us go to his dwelling place; let us worship at his footstool.”

8Rise up, O Lord, and go to your resting place, you and the ark of your might.

9Let your priests be clothed with righteousness, and let your faithful shout for joy.

10For your servant David’s sake do not turn away the face of your anointed one.

11The Lord swore to David a sure oath from which he will not turn back: “One of the sons of your body I will set on your throne.

12If your sons keep my covenant and my decrees that I shall teach them, their sons also, forevermore, shall sit on your throne.”

13For the Lord has chosen Zion; he has desired it for his habitation:

14“This is my resting place forever; here I will reside, for I have desired it.

15I will abundantly bless its provisions; I will satisfy its poor with bread.

16Its priests I will clothe with salvation, and its faithful will shout for joy.

17There I will cause a horn to sprout up for David; I have prepared a lamp for my anointed one.

18His enemies I will clothe with disgrace, but on him, his crown will gleam.”

Revelation 1:4b-8

4John to the seven churches that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven spirits who are before his throne, 5and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us and freed us from our sins by his blood, 6and made us to be a kingdom, priests serving his God and Father, to him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. 7Look! He is coming with the clouds; every eye will see him, even those who pierced him; and on his account all the tribes of the earth will wail. So it is to be. Amen. 8“I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.

John 18:33-38a

33Then Pilate entered the headquarters again, summoned Jesus, and asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” 34Jesus answered, “Do you ask this on your own, or did others tell you about me?” 35Pilate replied, “I am not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests have handed you over to me. What have you done?” 36Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not from this world. If my kingdom were from this world, my followers would be fighting to keep me from being handed over to the Jews. But as it is, my kingdom is not from here.” 37Pilate asked him, “So you are a king?” Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. For this I was born, and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to my voice.” 38Pilate asked him, “What is truth?” After he had said this, he went out to the Jews again and told them, “I find no case against him.
