Commontide

For Mercy

Almighty God, you have not dealt with us according to our sins, nor rewarded us according to our iniquities; grant that we, who for our evil deeds deserve to be punished, by the might of your grace may mercifully be relieved; through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Psalm 82

A Psalm of Asaph.

God stands in the council of princes; he is a Judge among gods.

“How long will you give wrong judgment and accept the ungodly?

Defend the poor and fatherless; see that those who are in need and necessity have what is right.

Deliver the outcast and poor; save them from the hand of the ungodly.”

They will not learn nor understand, but walk about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken.

I have said, “You are gods, and you are all the children of the Most High;

But you shall die like mortals, and fall like one of the princes.”

Arise, O God, and judge the earth, for you shall take all nations for your inheritance.
