A reading from the book of wisdom.

The souls of the just are in the hand of God, and no torment shall touch them.

They seemed, in the view of the foolish, to be dead, and their passing away was thought in affliction, and they're going forth from us utter destruction.

But they are in peace.

For if in the sight of others, indeed they be punished,

yet is their hope full of immortality,

chastise a little, they shall be greatly blessed

because God tried them and found them worthy of himself.

As gold in the furnace, he proved them, and as sacrificial offerings, he took them to himself. In the time of their visitation,

they shall shine, and shall dart about as sparks through stubble, and they shall judge nations

and rule over peoples, and the Lord shall be their king forever.

Those who trust in him shall understand truth, and the faithful shall abide with him in love,

because grace and mercy are with His holy ones, and his care is with His elect.

The word of the Lord.

Praise you God. I'm gonnae. I'm gonna I'm

The The Lord is my shepherd.

There is nothing I shall want.

The shepherd, there is nothing i shall want the lord is my shepherd i shall not want.

In bed and pastures he gives me repose

beside restful waters he leads me to me.

He refreshes my soul

The Lord
