The First Lesson 1 Kings 3:3-14A reading from First KingsSolomon loved the Lord, walking in the statutes ofDavid his father, only he sacrificed andmadeofferings at the high places. And the kingwent toGibeon to sacrifice there, for that was the greathigh place. Solomon used to offer a thousand burnt offerings on that altar. At Gibeon the Lordappeared to Solomon in a dream by night, and God said, “Ask what I shall give you.” AndSolomon said, “You have shown great and steadfast love to your servant David my father,because he walked before you in faithfulness, in righteousness, and in uprightness of hearttoward you. And you have kept for him this great and steadfast love and have given him a sonto sit on his throne this day.Andnow,OLordmyGod, you havemade your servant king in placeof David my father, although I am but a little child. I do not know how to go out or come in.And your servant is in themidst of your peoplewhomyouhave chosen, a great people, toomanyto be numbered or counted for multitude. Give your servant therefore an understanding mindto govern your people, that I may discern between good and evil, for who is able to govern thisyour great people?”

It pleased the Lord that Solomon had asked this. AndGod said to him, “Because you have askedthis, and have not asked for yourself long life or riches or the life of your enemies, but have askedfor yourself understanding to discern what is right, behold, I now do according to your word.Behold, I give you a wise and discerning mind, so that none like you has been before you andnone like you shall arise after you. I give you alsowhat youhavenot asked, both riches andhonor,so that no other king shall compare with you, all your days. And if you will walk in my ways,keeping my statutes and my commandments, as your father David walked, then I will lengthenyour days.”The Word of the LordPeople Thanks be to God

121 I have done that which is lawful and right; *O give me not over to my oppressors.

122 Be surety for your servant’s good, *O let not the arrogant oppress me.

123 My eyes have wasted away with looking for your salvation, *and for the word of your righteousness.

124 O deal with your servant according to your loving mercy, *and teach me your statutes.

125 I am your servant; O grant me understanding, *that I may know your testimonies.

126 It is time for you, O Lord, to act, *for they have broken your law.

127 For I love your commandments above all things, *more than gold and precious stones.

128 Therefore I hold all your commandments to be right, *and all false ways I utterly abhor.

129 Your testimonies are wonderful; *therefore does my soul keep them.

130 When your word goes forth it gives light *and understanding to the simple.

131 I opened my mouth, and drew in my breath, *for my delight was in your commandments.

132 O look upon me, and be merciful unto me, *as you always do for those who love your Name.

133 Order my steps according to your word, *and so shall no wickedness have dominion over me.

134 O deliver me from those who deal wrongfully, *and so shall I keep your commandments.

The Second Lesson Romans 8:26-34A reading from RomansLikewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought,but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. And he who searcheshearts knowswhat is themind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints accordingto the will of God. Andwe know that for those who loveGod all things work together for good,for those who are called according to his purpose. For those whom he foreknew he alsopredestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstbornamongmanybrothers.And thosewhomhepredestinedhe also called, and thosewhomhe calledhe also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.

What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did notspare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give usall things? Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. Who is tocondemn?Christ Jesus is the onewhodied—more than that,whowas raised—who is at the righthand of God, who indeed is interceding for us.The Word of the LordPeople Thanks be to God

The Gospel Matthew 13:31-33, 44-50The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to MatthewPeople Glory be to thee, O Lord.Jesus put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdomof heaven is like a grain ofmustardseed that a man took and sowed in his field. It is the smallest of all seeds, but when it has grownit is larger than all the gardenplants andbecomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come andmakenests in its branches.”

Page 7

He told them another parable. “The kingdom of heaven is like leaven that a woman took andhid in three measures of flour, till it was all leavened.”

---“The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up.Then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.

“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls, who, on finding onepearl of great value, went and sold all that he had and bought it.

“Again, the kingdomofheaven is like anet thatwas thrown into the sea andgathered fishof everykind.When it was full, men drew it ashore and sat down and sorted the good into containers butthrew away the bad. So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come out and separate theevil from the righteous and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weepingand gnashing of teeth.”The Gospel of the Lord.People Praise be to thee, O Christ.

By the Holy Ghost and the Virgin Mary he became flesh and dwelt among us. In obedience tothy will, he stretched out his arms upon the Cross and offered himself once for all, that by hissuffering and death we might be saved.
