Lessons and Psalm

First Lesson

Psalm

18Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon those who fear him, *on those who wait upon his love,

19To pluck their lives from death, *and to feed them in time of famine.

20Our soul waits for the Lord; *he is our help and our shield.

21Indeed, our heart rejoices in him, *for in his holy Name we put our trust.

22Let your loving-kindness, O Lord, be upon us, *as we have put our trust in you.

Psalm

19Open for me the gates of righteousness; *I will enter them; I will offer thanks to the Lord.

20“This is the gate of the Lord; *he who is righteous may enter.”

21I will give thanks to you, for you answered me *and have become my salvation.

22The same stone which the builders rejected *has become the chief cornerstone.

23This is the Lord’s doing, *and it is marvelous in our eyes.

24On this day the Lord has acted; *we will rejoice and be glad in it.

Acts 2:36-41

36 Therefore let the entire house of Israel know with certainty that God has made him both Lord and Messiah, this Jesus whom you crucified.” 37 Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and to the other apostles, “Brothers, what should we do?” 38 Peter said to them, “Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ so that your sins may be forgiven; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is for you, for your children, and for all who are far away, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to him.” 40 And he testified with many other arguments and exhorted them, saying, “Save yourselves from this corrupt generation.” 41 So those who welcomed his message were baptized, and that day about three thousand persons were added.

John 20:11-18

11 But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb; 12 and she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had been lying, one at the head and the other at the feet. 13 They said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him.” 14 When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not know that it was Jesus. 15 Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you looking for?” Supposing him to be the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away.” 16 Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned and said to him in Hebrew, “Rabbouni!” (which means Teacher). 17 Jesus said to her, “Do not hold on to me, because I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’” 18 Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord”; and she told them that he had said these things to her.
