Opening Sentence
Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
HEBREWS 4:14, 16
Confession of Sin
The Officiant says to the People
Let us humbly confess our sins to Almighty God.
Dearly beloved, the Scriptures teach us to acknowledge our many sins and offenses, not concealing them from our heavenly Father, but confessing them with humble and obedient hearts that we may obtain forgiveness by his infinite goodness and mercy. We ought at all times humbly to acknowledge our sins before Almighty God, but especially when we come together in his presence to give thanks for the great benefits we have received at his hands, to declare his most worthy praise, to hear his holy Word, and to ask, for ourselves and on behalf of others, those things which are necessary for our life and our salvation. Therefore, draw near with me to the throne of heavenly grace.
Let us humbly confess our sins to Almighty God.
Silence is kept. All kneeling, the Officiant and People say
Almighty and most merciful Father,
we have erred and strayed from your ways like lost sheep.
We have followed too much the devices and desires
of our own hearts.
We have offended against your holy laws.
We have left undone those things which we ought to have done,
and we have done those things which we ought not
to have done;
and apart from your grace, there is no health in us.
O Lord, have mercy upon us.
Spare all those who confess their faults.
Restore all those who are penitent, according to your promises
declared to all people in Christ Jesus our Lord.
And grant, O most merciful Father, for his sake,
that we may now live a godly, righteous, and sober life,
to the glory of your holy Name. Amen.
A Deacon or layperson remains kneeling and prays
Grant to your faithful people, merciful Lord, pardon and peace; that we may be cleansed from all our sins, and serve you with a quiet mind; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Priest alone stands and says
The Almighty and merciful Lord grant you absolution and remission of all your sins, true repentance, amendment of life, and the grace and consolation of his Holy Spirit.Amen.
Almighty God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, desires not the death of sinners, but that they may turn from their wickedness and live. He has empowered and commanded his ministers to pronounce to his people, being penitent, the absolution and remission of their sins. He pardons and absolves all who truly repent and genuinely believe his holy Gospel. For this reason, we beseech him to grant us true repentance and his Holy Spirit, that our present deeds may please him, the rest of our lives may be pure and holy, and that at the last we may come to his eternal joy; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Almighty and merciful Lord grant you absolution and remission of all your sins, true repentance, amendment of life, and the grace and consolation of his Holy Spirit. Amen.

Psalm 74
Ut quid, Deus?
1 O God, why have you utterly cast us off?*
Why is your wrath so hot against the sheep of your pasture?
2 O think upon your congregation*
whom you have purchased and redeemed of old.
3 Think upon the tribe of your inheritance,*
and Mount Zion, where you have dwelt.
4 Draw near and behold how all is made desolate*
and how the enemy has destroyed all that is in your sanctuary.
5 Your adversaries roar in the midst of your holy place*
and set up their banners as tokens of victory.
6 Like hewers of timber in a thicket of trees,*
so have they broken down all the carved work with axes and hammers.
7 They have set fire to your holy place*
and have defiled the dwelling place of your Name, even to the ground.
8 They said in their hearts, "Let us make havoc of them altogether."*
Thus have they burnt up all the houses of God in the land.
9 We do not see any signs; there is not one prophet anymore;*
there is no one who knows how long these things shall continue.
10 O God, how long shall the adversary do this dishonor?*
How long shall the enemy blaspheme your Name, for ever?
11 Why do you withdraw your hand?*
Why do you not take your right hand out of your bosom to consume the enemy?
12 For God is my King of old;*
he is the one bringing help upon the earth.
13 You divided the sea through your power;*
you broke the heads of the dragons in the waters.
14 You smote the heads of Leviathan in pieces*
and gave him to be food for the people in the wilderness.
15 You brought fountains and waters out of the hard rocks,*
and you dried up mighty waters.
16 The day is yours, and the night is yours;*
you have prepared the light and the sun.
17 You have set all the borders of the earth;*
you have made summer and winter.
18 Remember this, O Lord, how the enemy scoffed,*
and how the foolish people have blasphemed your Name.
19 Deliver not the soul of your turtledove to the wild beasts,*
and forget not for ever the lives of your poor.
20 Look upon your covenant,*
for the dark places of the earth are full of violence.
21 Let not the oppressed go away ashamed,*
but let the poor and needy give praise to your Name.
22 Arise, O God, maintain your own cause;*
remember how the foolish one blasphemes you daily.
23 Forget not the voice of your enemies,*
nor the tumult of those who hate you, which increases ever more and more.

Benedictus Dominus
1 Blessed be the Lord my strength,*
who teaches my hands to war and my fingers to fight,
2 My hope and my fortress, my stronghold and deliverer, my defender in whom I trust,*
who subdues the peoples under me.
3 O Lord, what is man, that you have shown such respect to him,*
or the son of man, that you so regard him?
4 Man is like a thing of nought;*
his time passes away like a shadow.
5 Bow your heavens, O Lord, and come down;*
touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.
6 Cast forth your lightning and scatter them;*
shoot out your arrows and consume them.
7 Send down your hand from above;*
deliver me, and take me out of the great waters, from the hand of strangers,
8 Whose mouth talks of vain things,*
and whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
9 I will sing a new song unto you, O God,*
and sing praises unto you upon a ten-stringed lute.
10 You have given victory to kings,*
and have delivered David your servant from the peril of the sword.
11 Save me, and deliver me from the hand of strangers,*
whose mouth talks of vain things, and whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood;
12 That our sons may grow up as young plants,*
and that our daughters may be as the polished corners of the temple,
13 That our storehouses may be full and plenteous with all manner of grain, *
that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields,
14 That our oxen may be strong to labor, that there be no decay,*
no leading into captivity, and no outcry in our streets.
15 Happy are the people of whom this is so;*
indeed, blessed are the people who have the Lord for their God.

Exaltabo te, Deus
1 I will magnify you, O God my King,*

2 Every day will I give thanks to you,*
and praise your Name for ever and ever.
3 Great is the Lord, and most worthy to be praised;*
there is no end of his greatness.
4 One generation shall praise your works to another,*
and shall declare your power.
5 As for me, I will be talking of the glorious splendor of your majesty,*
and of all your wondrous works.
6 They shall speak of the might of your marvelous acts,*
and I also will tell of your greatness.
7 The remembrance of your abundant goodness shall they proclaim,*
and they shall sing of your righteousness.
8 The Lord is gracious and merciful,*
long-suffering, and of great kindness.
9 The Lord is loving to everyone,*
and his mercy is over all his works.
10 All your works praise you, O Lord,*
and your faithful servants give thanks to you.
11 They speak of the glory of your kingdom*
and talk of your power,
12 That your power may be known to the children of men,*
even the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,*
and your dominion endures throughout all ages.
14 The Lord upholds all those who fall*
and lifts up all those who are bowed down.
15 The eyes of all wait upon you, O Lord,*
and you give them their food in due season.
16 You open wide your hand,*
and fill all things living with plenteousness.
17 The Lord is righteous in all his ways*
and merciful in all his works.
18 The Lord is near to all those who call upon him,*
to all who call upon him faithfully.
19 He will fulfill the desire of those who fear him;*
he also will hear their cry and will help them.
20 The Lord preserves all those who love him,*
but he will destroy all the ungodly.
21 My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord;*
and let all flesh give thanks unto his holy Name for ever and ever.
Psalm 146
Lauda, anima mea
1 Praise the Lord, O my soul;*
while I live I will praise the Lord.
2 Indeed, as long as I have my being,*
I will sing praises unto my God.
3 Put not your trust in princes, nor in any child of man,*
for there is no help in them.
4 For when one breathes his last, he shall return again to the earth,*
and in that day all his thoughts perish.
5 Blessed is the one who has the God of Jacob for his help*
and whose hope is in the Lord his God,
6 Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is therein;*
who keeps his promise for ever;
7 Who does right to those who suffer wrong;*
and who feeds the hungry.
8 The Lord sets prisoners free;*
the Lord gives sight to the blind.
9 The Lord helps those who have fallen;*
the Lord loves the righteous.
10 The Lord cares for the strangers in the land; he defends the fatherless and widow;*
but the way of the ungodly he makes crooked.
11 The Lord shall be King for evermore,*
even your God, O Zion, throughout all generations. Praise the Lord.

Joshua to Succeed Moses
So Moses continued to speak these words to all Israel. 2 And he said to them, “I am 120 years old today. I am no longer able to go out and come in. The Lord has said to me, ‘You shall not go over this Jordan.’ 3 The Lord your God himself will go over before you. He will destroy these nations before you, so that you shall dispossess them, and Joshua will go over at your head, as the Lord has spoken. 4 And the Lord will do to them as he did to Sihon and Og, the kings of the Amorites, and to their land, when he destroyed them. 5 And the Lord will give them over to you, and you shall do to them according to the whole commandment that I have commanded you. 6 Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.”
7 Then Moses summoned Joshua and said to him in the sight of all Israel, “Be strong and courageous, for you shall go with this people into the land that the Lord has sworn to their fathers to give them, and you shall put them in possession of it. 8 It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.”
The Reading of the Law
9 Then Moses wrote this law and gave it to the priests, the sons of Levi, who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and to all the elders of Israel. 10 And Moses commanded them, “At the end of every seven years, at the set time in the year of release, at the Feast of Booths, 11 when all Israel comes to appear before the Lord your God at the place that he will choose, you shall read this law before all Israel in their hearing. 12 Assemble the people, men, women, and little ones, and the sojourner within your towns, that they may hear and learn to fear the Lord your God, and be careful to do all the words of this law, 13 and that their children, who have not known it, may hear and learn to fear the Lord your God, as long as you live in the land that you are going over the Jordan to possess.”
Joshua Commissioned to Lead Israel
14 And the Lord said to Moses, “Behold, the days approach when you must die. Call Joshua and present yourselves in the tent of meeting, that I may commission him.” And Moses and Joshua went and presented themselves in the tent of meeting. 15 And the Lord appeared in the tent in a pillar of cloud. And the pillar of cloud stood over the entrance of the tent.
16 And the Lord said to Moses, “Behold, you are about to lie down with your fathers. Then this people will rise and whore after the foreign gods among them in the land that they are entering, and they will forsake me and break my covenant that I have made with them. 17 Then my anger will be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them and hide my face from them, and they will be devoured. And many evils and troubles will come upon them, so that they will say in that day, ‘Have not these evils come upon us because our God is not among us?’ 18 And I will surely hide my face in that day because of all the evil that they have done, because they have turned to other gods.
19 “Now therefore write this song and teach it to the people of Israel. Put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the people of Israel. 20 For when I have brought them into the land flowing with milk and honey, which I swore to give to their fathers, and they have eaten and are full and grown fat, they will turn to other gods and serve them, and despise me and break my covenant. 21 And when many evils and troubles have come upon them, this song shall confront them as a witness (for it will live unforgotten in the mouths of their offspring). For I know what they are inclined to do even today, before I have brought them into the land that I swore to give.” 22 So Moses wrote this song the same day and taught it to the people of Israel.
23 And the Lord commissioned Joshua the son of Nun and said, “Be strong and courageous, for you shall bring the people of Israel into the land that I swore to give them. I will be with you.”
24 When Moses had finished writing the words of this law in a book to the very end, 25 Moses commanded the Levites who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, 26 “Take this Book of the Law and put it by the side of the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, that it may be there for a witness against you. 27 For I know how rebellious and stubborn you are. Behold, even today while I am yet alive with you, you have been rebellious against the Lord. How much more after my death! 28 Assemble to me all the elders of your tribes and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears and call heaven and earth to witness against them. 29 For I know that after my death you will surely act corruptly and turn aside from the way that I have commanded you. And in the days to come evil will befall you, because you will do what is evil in the sight of the Lord, provoking him to anger through the work of your hands.”
The Song of Moses
30 Then Moses spoke the words of this song until they were finished, in the ears of all the assembly of Israel:

The Siege of Jerusalem Symbolized
“And you, son of man, take a brick and lay it before you, and engrave on it a city, even Jerusalem. 2 And put siegeworks against it, and build a siege wall against it, and cast up a mound against it. Set camps also against it, and plant battering rams against it all around. 3 And you, take an iron griddle, and place it as an iron wall between you and the city; and set your face toward it, and let it be in a state of siege, and press the siege against it. This is a sign for the house of Israel.
4 “Then lie on your left side, and place the punishment of the house of Israel upon it. For the number of the days that you lie on it, you shall bear their punishment. 5 For I assign to you a number of days, 390 days, equal to the number of the years of their punishment. So long shall you bear the punishment of the house of Israel. 6 And when you have completed these, you shall lie down a second time, but on your right side, and bear the punishment of the house of Judah. Forty days I assign you, a day for each year. 7 And you shall set your face toward the siege of Jerusalem, with your arm bared, and you shall prophesy against the city. 8 And behold, I will place cords upon you, so that you cannot turn from one side to the other, till you have completed the days of your siege.
9 “And you, take wheat and barley, beans and lentils, millet and emmer, and put them into a single vessel and make your bread from them. During the number of days that you lie on your side, 390 days, you shall eat it. 10 And your food that you eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day; from day to day you shall eat it. 11 And water you shall drink by measure, the sixth part of a hin; from day to day you shall drink. 12 And you shall eat it as a barley cake, baking it in their sight on human dung.” 13 And the Lord said, “Thus shall the people of Israel eat their bread unclean, among the nations where I will drive them.” 14 Then I said, “Ah, Lord God! Behold, I have never defiled myself. From my youth up till now I have never eaten what died of itself or was torn by beasts, nor has tainted meat come into my mouth.” 15 Then he said to me, “See, I assign to you cow's dung instead of human dung, on which you may prepare your bread.” 16 Moreover, he said to me, “Son of man, behold, I will break the supply of bread in Jerusalem. They shall eat bread by weight and with anxiety, and they shall drink water by measure and in dismay. 17 I will do this that they may lack bread and water, and look at one another in dismay, and rot away because of their punishment.

The Second Lesson
Luke 17:1-19
The lesson is read, the people sitting
| Reader | A reading from the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to St. Luke, beginning with the seventeenth chapter, the first verse |
Temptations to Sin
And he said to his disciples, “Temptations to sin are sure to come, but woe to the one through whom they come! 2 It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were cast into the sea than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin. 3 Pay attention to yourselves! If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him, 4 and if he sins against you seven times in the day, and turns to you seven times, saying, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.”
Increase Our Faith
5 The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!” 6 And the Lord said, “If you had faith like a grain of mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.
Unworthy Servants
7 “Will any one of you who has a servant plowing or keeping sheep say to him when he has come in from the field, ‘Come at once and recline at table’? 8 Will he not rather say to him, ‘Prepare supper for me, and dress properly, and serve me while I eat and drink, and afterward you will eat and drink’? 9 Does he thank the servant because he did what was commanded? 10 So you also, when you have done all that you were commanded, say, ‘We are unworthy servants; we have only done what was our duty.’”
Jesus Cleanses Ten Lepers
11 On the way to Jerusalem he was passing along between Samaria and Galilee. 12 And as he entered a village, he was met by ten lepers, who stood at a distance 13 and lifted up their voices, saying, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.” 14 When he saw them he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went they were cleansed. 15 Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice; 16 and he fell on his face at Jesus' feet, giving him thanks. Now he was a Samaritan. 17 Then Jesus answered, “Were not ten cleansed? Where are the nine? 18 Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?” 19 And he said to him, “Rise and go your way; your faith has made you well.”

Acts 7:17-34
The lesson is read, the people sitting
| Reader | A reading from the Acts of the Apostles, beginning with the seventh chapter, the seventeenth verse |
17 “But as the time of the promise drew near, which God had granted to Abraham, the people increased and multiplied in Egypt 18 until there arose over Egypt another king who did not know Joseph. 19 He dealt shrewdly with our race and forced our fathers to expose their infants, so that they would not be kept alive. 20 At this time Moses was born; and he was beautiful in God's sight. And he was brought up for three months in his father's house, 21 and when he was exposed, Pharaoh's daughter adopted him and brought him up as her own son. 22 And Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and he was mighty in his words and deeds.
23 “When he was forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brothers, the children of Israel. 24 And seeing one of them being wronged, he defended the oppressed man and avenged him by striking down the Egyptian. 25 He supposed that his brothers would understand that God was giving them salvation by his hand, but they did not understand. 26 And on the following day he appeared to them as they were quarreling and tried to reconcile them, saying, ‘Men, you are brothers. Why do you wrong each other?’ 27 But the man who was wronging his neighbor thrust him aside, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge over us? 28 Do you want to kill me as you killed the Egyptian yesterday?’ 29 At this retort Moses fled and became an exile in the land of Midian, where he became the father of two sons.
30 “Now when forty years had passed, an angel appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai, in a flame of fire in a bush. 31 When Moses saw it, he was amazed at the sight, and as he drew near to look, there came the voice of the Lord: 32 ‘I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob.’ And Moses trembled and did not dare to look. 33 Then the Lord said to him, ‘Take off the sandals from your feet, for the place where you are standing is holy ground. 34 I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and have heard their groaning, and I have come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send you to Egypt.’
