The Introit Psalm
130. De profundis.
OUT of the deep have I called
unto thee, O LORD; * Lord, hear my voice.
2 O let thine ears consider well * the voice of my complaint.
3 If thou, LORD, wilt be extreme to mark what is done amiss, * O Lord, who may abide it?
4 For there is mercy with thee; * therefore shalt thou be feared.
5 I look for the LORD; my soul doth wait for him; * in his word is my trust.
2 O let thine ears consider well * the voice of my complaint.

6 My soul fleeth unto the Lord before the
morning watch; * I say, before the morning watch.
7 O Israel, trust in the LORD; for with the LORD there is mercy, * and with him is plenteous redemption.
8 And he shall redeem Israel * from all his sins.

2 Behold, even as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, * and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress,
3 Even so our eyes wait upon the Lord Our God, * until he have mercy upon us.
4 Have mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy upon us; * for we are utterly despised.
5 Our soul is filled with the scornful reproof of the wealthy, * and with the despitefulness of the proud.

The Collect.
The Epistle. Jeremiah 2:4-13.
HEAR ye the word of the LORD, O house of Jacob, and all the families
of the house of Israel: Thus saith the LORD, What iniquity have your fathers
found in me, that they are gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and
are become vain? Neither said they, Where is the LORD that brought us up out of
the land of Egypt, that led us through the wilderness, through a land of
deserts and of pits, through a land of drought, and of the shadow of death,
through a land that no man passed through, and where no man dwelt? And I brought
you into a plentiful country, to eat the fruit thereof and the goodness
thereof; but when ye entered, ye defiled my land, and made mine heritage an
abomination. The priests said not, Where is the LORD?and they that handle the
law knew me not: the shepherds also transgressed against me, and the prophets
prophesied by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit. Wherefore I
will yet plead with you, saith the LORD, and with your children's children will
I plead. For pass over the isles of Chittim, and see; and send unto Kedar, and
consider diligently, and see if there be such a thing. Hath a nation changed
their gods, which are yet no gods? but my people have changed their glory for
that which doth not profit. Be astonished, O ye heavens, at this, and be horribly
afraid, be ye very desolate, saith the LORD. For my people have committed two
evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out
cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.
The Gospel. St. John 4:5-26.
THEN cometh Jesus to a city of Samaria, which is called, near to the
parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. Now Jacob's well was there.
Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it
was about the sixth hour. There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus
saith unto her, Give me to drink. (For his disciples were gone away unto the
city to buy meat.) Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that
thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews
have no dealings with the Samaritans. Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou
knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink;
thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water. The
woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is
deep: from whence then hast thou that living water? Art thou greater than our
father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children,
and his cattle? Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this
water shall thirst again: but whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give
him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well
of water springing up into everlasting life. The woman saith unto him, Sir,
give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw. Jesus saith
unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither. The woman answered and said, I
have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:
for thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband:
in that saidst thou truly. The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art
a prophet. Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in
Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worshiy. Jesus saith unto her, Woman,
believe me, the hour cometn, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at
Jerusalem, worship the Father. Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we
worship: for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour cometh, and now is, when
the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father
seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must
worship him in spirit and in truth. The woman saith unto him, I know that
Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all
things. Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.

in the Second Week of Lent
The Collect.
The Epistle. Numbers 20:1-13.
THEN came the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, into
the desert of Zin in the first month: and the people abode in Kadesh; and
Miriam died there, and was buried there. And there was no water for the congregation:
and they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron. And the people
chode with Moses, and spake, saying, Would God that we had died when our
brethren died before the LORD! And why have ye brought up the congregation of
the LORD into this wilderness, that we and our cattle should die there? And
wherefore have ye made us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in unto this
evil place? it is no place of seed, or of figs, or of vines, or of
pomegranates; neither is there any water to drink. And Moses and Aaron went
from the presence of the assembly unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,
and they fell upon their faces: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto them.
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Take the rod, and gather thou the
assembly together, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock
before their eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and thou shall bring
forth to them water out of the rock: so thou shalt give the congregation and
their beasts drink. And Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he
commanded him. And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the
rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out
of this rock? And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock
twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their
beasts also. And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me
not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall
not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them. This is the water
of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he showed
himself holy among them.
The Gospel. St. John 5:1-16.
AFTER this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
Now there is at Jerusalem by we sheep market a pool, which is called in the
Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches. In these lay a great Multitude of
crippled folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the
water: who soever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was
made whole of whatsoever disease he had. And a certain man was there, which had
an infirmity thirty and eight years. When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he
had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt 23 thou be made
whole? The crippled man answered Aim, Sir, I have no man, when the water is
troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down
before me. Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk. And
immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the
same day was the sabbath. The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It
is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed. He answered
them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk.
Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed,
and walk? And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed
himself away, a multitude being in that place. Afterward Jesus findeth him in the
temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a
worse thing come unto thee. The man departed, and told the Jews that it was
Jesus, which had made him whole. And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus,
and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.
