Blessed is the man that walketh not in the council of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sin- ners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. Response. But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in His law doth he meditate day and night. L. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringetli forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. - R. The ungodly are not so, but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away. L. Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgement, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. R. For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous but the way of the ungodly shall perish. LESSON If. L. Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim, whose glorious beauty is a fading flower, which are on the head of the fat valleys of them that 15 lot In the ay of sin- bhe Lord; I. he rivers ason;his tie doeth he chaff in the of the are overcome with wine. R. But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink ; they err in vision, they stumble in judge- ment. * I L, And the Lord spoke unto Aaron saying, : R. Do not drink wine nor strong drink ,"^ thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye go into the tabernacle of the congregations, lest ye die; it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations. L. And that ye may put difference between holy and unholy, and between clean and unclean. ghtcous LESSON IV, ards of flower, im that L, And I set befcre the sons of the house of the Bechabites pots full of wine, and cups, and I said unto them. Drink ye wine, R. But they said. We will drink no wine: for Jona- dab the son of Rechab our father, commanded us #'■ If 16 saying, Ye shall drink no wine, neither ye, nor your sons for ever. ' L. That ye may live many days in [the [land'^iwhere ye be strangers. B. Thus have we obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Kechab our father in all that he charged us, to drink no wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons,nor our daughters-. L. And Jeremiah said unto the house of the Recha- bites. Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, because ye have obeyed the commandments of Jona- dab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done ac - cording unto all that iie hath commanded you: R. Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Jonadab the son of Rechab shall not want a man to stand before me for ever. L. It is good neither to eat flesh; nor to drink wine, nor anything whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is of- fended, or is made weak. Re For if any man see thee which has knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not tho conscience of him that is weak be'emboldened to eat those thimrs ■ e, nor your ■ .1 . . , land^iwliere rouadab the irgcd us, to ►ur sons,nor I the Recha- d of Israel, ts of Jona- nd done ac - ou: its, the God not want a drink wine, th, or is of- knowh^dge conscience hose thinirs 17 iivhich are offered to idols? L. And^through thy knowledge shall the weak bro- ;her perish for whom Christ died? R. But ye sin so against the brethren, and w^ound eir weak conscience, ye sin against Christ. L. Wherefore if meal raakethmy brother to offend, will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I ake my brother to offend. LESSON Y. L. God be merciful unto us, and bless us ; and canse is face to shine uj»on us; R, That Thy way may be known upon earth, Thy aving health among all nations. L. fjct the people praise Thee, :0, (xod; let all the jeople praise Thee. R. O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for Thou Shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon eai th. L. Let the people praise Thee, O God; let a'l the eople praise Thee. R . Then shall the earth yield her increr.se ; and God , 18 even our God, shall bless us. L. God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear Him. LESSON VI. If, Blesped are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom,^of heaven. R. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. L. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. B, Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst af- ter righteousness: for they shall be filled, L. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy, B. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. L. Blessed are the peace-makers: for they shall be called the'children of God. R. It is not for kings, O l.emuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink. I i T'jTBr - ■„. .J.-.. --..^ .., , ., ^^-^„„, ~ , ,_—■ . «»f«**?

And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. L. Nor thieves, nor coveteous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the king- dom of God. R , But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would nO'- defile himself with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he request- ed of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself. L. So he consented to them in this ^matter, and proved them ten days. And ^at the end of ten days their countenance appeared fairer and fatter in flesh than all the children which did eat the portion of the king's meat. Thus Melzar took away the portion of their meat, and the wine that they should drink. A NATIONAL ANTHBM.
