1 Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High ♦︎
and abides under the shadow of the Almighty,
2 Shall say to the Lord, My refuge and my stronghold, ♦︎
my God, in whom I put my trust.
3 For he shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler ♦︎
and from the deadly pestilence.
4 He shall cover you with his wings
and you shall be safe under his feathers; ♦︎
his faithfulness shall be your shield and buckler.
5 You shall not be afraid of any terror by night, ♦︎
nor of the arrow that flies by day;
6 Of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, ♦︎
nor of the sickness that destroys at noonday.
7 Though a thousand fall at your side
and ten thousand at your right hand, ♦︎
yet it shall not come near you.
8 Your eyes have only to behold ♦︎
to see the reward of the wicked.
9 Because you have made the Lord your refuge ♦︎
and the Most High your stronghold,
10 There shall no evil happen to you, ♦︎
neither shall any plague come near your tent.
11 For he shall give his angels charge over you, ♦︎
to keep you in all your ways.
12 They shall bear you in their hands, ♦︎
lest you dash your foot against a stone.
13 You shall tread upon the lion and adder; ♦︎
the young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.
14 Because they have set their love upon me,
therefore will I deliver them; ♦︎
I will lift them up, because they know my name.
15 They will call upon me and I will answer them; ♦︎
I am with them in trouble,
I will deliver them and bring them to honour.
16 With long life will I satisfy them ♦︎
and show them my salvation.
1 It is a good thing to give thanks to the Lord ♦︎
and to sing praises to your name, O Most High;
2 To tell of your love early in the morning ♦︎
and of your faithfulness in the night-time,
3 Upon the ten-stringed instrument, upon the harp, ♦︎
and to the melody of the lyre.
4 For you, Lord, have made me glad by your acts, ♦︎
and I sing aloud at the works of your hands.
5 O Lord, how glorious are your works! ♦︎
Your thoughts are very deep.
6 The senseless do not know, ♦︎
nor do fools understand,
7 That though the wicked sprout like grass ♦︎
and all the workers of iniquity flourish,
8 It is only to be destroyed for ever; ♦︎
but you, O Lord, shall be exalted for evermore.
9 For lo, your enemies, O Lord,
lo, your enemies shall perish, ♦︎
and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10 But my horn you have exalted
like the horns of wild oxen; ♦︎
I am anointed with fresh oil.
11 My eyes will look down on my foes; ♦︎
my ears shall hear the ruin of the evildoers
who rise up against me.
12 The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree, ♦︎
and shall spread abroad like a cedar of Lebanon.
13 Such as are planted in the house of the Lord ♦︎
shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14 They shall still bear fruit in old age; ♦︎
they shall be vigorous and in full leaf;
15 That they may show that the Lord is true; ♦︎
he is my rock,
and there is no unrighteousness in him.

6 Upon your walls, O Jerusalem,
I have posted sentinels;
all day and all night
they shall never be silent.
You who remind the Lord,
take no rest,
7 and give him no rest
until he establishes Jerusalem
and makes it renowned throughout the earth.
8 The Lord has sworn by his right hand
and by his mighty arm:
I will not again give your grain
to be food for your enemies,
and foreigners shall not drink the wine
for which you have laboured;
9 but those who garner it shall eat it
and praise the Lord,
and those who gather it shall drink it
in my holy courts.
10 Go through, go through the gates,
prepare the way for the people;
build up, build up the highway,
clear it of stones,
lift up an ensign over the peoples.
11 The Lord has proclaimed
to the end of the earth:
Say to daughter Zion,
See, your salvation comes;
his reward is with him,
and his recompense before him.
12 They shall be called, The Holy People,
The Redeemed of the Lord;
and you shall be called, Sought Out,
A City Not Forsaken.
63Who is this that comes from Edom,
from Bozrah in garments stained crimson?
Who is this so splendidly robed,
marching in his great might?
It is I, announcing vindication,
mighty to save.
2 Why are your robes red,
and your garments like theirs who tread the wine press?
3 I have trodden the wine press alone,
and from the peoples no one was with me;
I trod them in my anger
and trampled them in my wrath;
their juice spattered on my garments,
and stained all my robes.
4 For the day of vengeance was in my heart,
and the year for my redeeming work had come.
5 I looked, but there was no helper;
I stared, but there was no one to sustain me;
so my own arm brought me victory,
and my wrath sustained me.
6 I trampled down peoples in my anger,
I crushed them in my wrath,
and I poured out their lifeblood on the earth.

11When they were approaching Jerusalem, at Bethphage and Bethany, near the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples
2and said to them, Go into the village ahead of you, and immediately as you enter it, you will find tied there a colt that has never been ridden; untie it and bring it.
3If anyone says to you, Why are you doing this? just say this, The Lord needs it and will send it back here immediately.
4They went away and found a colt tied near a door, outside in the street. As they were untying it,
5some of the bystanders said to them, What are you doing, untying the colt?
6They told them what Jesus had said; and they allowed them to take it.
7Then they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks on it; and he sat on it.
8Many people spread their cloaks on the road, and others spread leafy branches that they had cut in the fields.
9Then those who went ahead and those who followed were shouting,
Hosanna!
Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!
10 Blessed is the coming kingdom of our ancestor David!
Hosanna in the highest heaven!
11 Then he entered Jerusalem and went into the temple; and when he had looked around at everything, as it was already late, he went out to Bethany with the twelve.
