​ READINGS FROM THE PSALMS

But as for me, my feet were almost gone;
   my steps had well nigh slipped.
For I was envious at the foolish,
   when I saw the prosperity of the wicked (73.2-3).


​READINGS FROM THE NEW TESTAMENT GOSPELS

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess (matthew 23.25).


​READINGS ON A JUST SOCIETY

But before ye seek for riches, seek ye for the kingdom of God. And after ye have obtained a hope in Christ ye shall obtain riches, if ye seek them; and ye will seek them for the intent to do good—to clothe the naked, and to feed the hungry, and to liberate the captive, and administer relief to the sick and the afflicted (jacob 2.18-19).
