The earth is the Lord’s, and
everything in it.
The world and all its people
belong to him.
For he laid the earth’s foundation
on the seas
and built it on the ocean depths.
Who may climb the mountain of
the Lord?
Who may stand in his holy
place?
Only those whose hands and
hearts are pure,
who do not worship idols
and never tell lies.
They will receive the Lord’s
blessing
and have a right relationship
with God their savior.
Such people may seek you
and worship in your presence,
O God of Jacob.*

and let the King of glory enter.

My child,* if you have put up
security for a friend’s debt
or agreed to guarantee the debt
of a stranger—
if you have trapped yourself by
your agreement
and are caught by what you
said—
follow my advice and save
yourself,
for you have placed yourself
at your friend’s mercy.
Now swallow your pride;
go and beg to have your name
erased.
Don’t put it off; do it now!
Don’t rest until you do.
Save yourself like a gazelle
escaping from a hunter,
like a bird fleeing from a net.
6:1 Hebrew My son.
Lord, so many names in the news, so many faces on the
campaign trail. They all think they can lead, but is that
true? Lord, give those who are stretching beyond their
abilities the courage to step away; give those you’ve
called the courage to stay the course. Amen.
EXODUS 10:1–12:13
Then the Lord said to M
oses, “Return
to Pharaoh and make your demands
again. I have made him and his officials stubborn* so I can display my miraculous signs among them. 2 I’ve also
done it so you can tell your children

and grandchildren about how I made
a mockery of the Egyptians and about
the signs I displayed among them—
and so you will know that I am the
Lord.”
