praise you,
and all your holy ones bless you!
Psalm 145
1. Praise the Lord, O my soul.
2. I shall praise the Lord while I live;
I shall sing to my God as long as I exist.
3. Do not trust in rulers,
or in any human offspring,
in whom there is no salvation.
4. Their breath shall be exhaled,
and they shall return to their earth;
on that day all their thoughts
shall perish.
5. Blessed is the one whose help
is the God of Jacob;
whose hope is in the Lord his God,
6. who made heaven and earth,
the seas and everything in them;
who keeps truth forever;
7. who executes justice for the wronged;
who provides food for the hungry.
The Lord liberates those held
in bondage.
The Lord grants wisdom to the blind.
8. The Lord restores the broken-hearted.
The Lord loves the righteous.
9. The Lord protects the resident alien,
and shall adopt the orphan
and the widow,
but destroy the way of sinners.
The Lord shall reign forever;
your God, O Zion, for all generations.

Hebrew Texts
Genesis 1:1–2 TNK
In the beginning, when God created the heavens and earth, the earth was a formless void, and darkness covered the face of the deep, but the Spirit of God, she hovered, brooding over the face of the waters.
Genesis 1:26–27 TNK
God said, “Let us make Man in our own image, in the likeness of ourselves, and let them be masters of the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the cattle, all the wild animals and all the creatures that crawl upon the earth.” And so God created Man in his image; in the image of God he created him, male and female he created them.
Genesis 17:1–8 TNK
When Abram was ninety-nine years old, God appeared to Abram and said, “I am El Shaddai—God, the Breasted One. Walk in my presence and be blameless. I will establish my covenant between myself and you and exceedingly increase your numbers.” Then Abram fell on his face; and God spoke to him as follows: “For my part, my covenant with you is this: you will become the father of many nations. Thus you will no longer be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham for I have made you the father of many nations. I will make you abundantly fertile; thus I will make you into nations, and kings will issue from you. And I will maintain my covenant between myself and you, and your descendants after you, from generation to generation, as an everlasting covenant, to be your God and the God of your progeny after you. And I will give to you and your descendants after you the land in which you are now sojourneying, the entire territory of Canaan, as a perpetual possession; and I will be their God.”
Genesis 17:1–4, 9–14 TNK
When Abram was ninety-nine years old, God appeared to Abram and said, “I am El Shaddai—God, the Breasted One. Walk in my presence and be blameless. I will establish my covenant between me and you and exceedingly increase your numbers.” Then Abram fell on his face; and God spoke to him as follows: “For my part, my covenant with you is this: you will become the father of many nations. . . .” God further said to Abraham, “You for your part must keep my covenant, and your descendants after you, from generation to generation. This is my covenant that you must keep between myself and you and your descendants after you: every male among you must be circumcised. You must circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, and this will serve as the sign of the covenant between myself and you. As soon as your males are eight days old, every one of them, generation after generation, they must be circumcised, including slaves born within the household as well as those bought from a foreigner not of your progeny. Whether born within the household or purchased, they must all be circumcised. Thus my covenant shall be in your flesh as a perpetual pact. But the uncircumcised male, whose foreskin has not been cut off, that person must be cut off from his people; he has broken my covenant.”
Genesis 17:1–4, 15–21 TNK
When Abram was ninety-nine years old, God appeared to Abram and said, “I am El Shaddai—God, the Breasted One. Walk in my presence and be blameless. I will establish my covenant between me and you and exceedingly increase your numbers.” Then Abram fell on his face; and God spoke to him as follows: “For my part, my covenant with you is this: you will become the father of many nations. . . .” And God concluded saying to Abraham, “As for your wife Sarai, you must no longer call her Sarai; her name shall be Sarah. I shall bless her, thus indeed I will give you a son by her. I shall bless her so that she shall be a mother of nations; kings of peoples will issue from her.” Now Abraham bowed to the ground and laughed, thinking to himself, “Can a child be born to a hundred year old man? Or can Sarah, a ninety year old woman, give birth?” So Abraham said to God, “May Ishmael live in your presence!” But God replied, “Nevertheless, your wife Sarah shall bear you a son and you will name him Isaac. I shall maintain my covenant with him, as an everlasting covenant, even for his descendants after him. As to Ishmael, I heard your request. I hereby bless him so that he will be fruitful and greatly increase in numbers. He will be the father of twelve princes, and I shall make him into a great nation. But I will establish my covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you by this time next year.”
Genesis 28:1–5 TNK
Then Isaac summoned Jacob, blessed him and commanded him saying, “You must not marry any of the Canaanite women. Arise, go to Paddan-Aram, the house of Bethuel your mother’s father, and there choose for yourself a wife from the daughters of Laban, your mother’s brother. May El Shaddai—God the Breasted One, bless you, make you fruitful, and cause you to multiply so that you become a company of peoples. May God bestow on you the blessing of Abraham, to you and your descendants after you, so that you may take possession of the land where you sojourn, which God granted to Abraham.” Then Isaac sent Jacob on his way, and Jacob traveled to Paddan-Aram, to Laban son of Bethuel the Aramaean, and brother of Rebecca, mother of Jacob and Esau.
Genesis 35:9–13 TNK
God appeared to Jacob again as he returned from Paddan-Aram, and blessed him. God said to him, “Your name is Jacob; but you will no longer be called Jacob, but your name shall be Israel.” (That is why he called himself Israel.) God said to him, “I am El Shaddai—God, the Breasted One. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation, indeed a throng of nations, will come from you, even kings will spring from your loins. The land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac I now give to you; and this country I will give to your descendants after you.” Then God departed from him.
Genesis 43:1–14 TNK
Now the famine in the land only grew more severe. So when they had finished eating the grain which they had brought back from Egypt their father said to them, “Go back and buy us some food.” “But,” Judah replied, “the man solemnly warned us, ‘You will not be permitted in my presence unless your brother is with you.’ If you are willing to send our brother along
