Tuesday of the 2nd week of Easter

32And the multitude of believers had but one heart and one soul: neither did any one say that aught of the things which he possessed, was his own; but all things were common unto them. 33And with great power did the apostles give testimony of the resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord; and great grace was in them all. 34For neither was there any one needy among them. For as many as were owners of lands or houses, sold them, and brought the price of the things they sold, 35And laid it down before the feet of the apostles. And distribution was made to every one, according as he had need. 36And Joseph, who, by the apostles, was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, by interpretation, The son of consolation,) a Levite, a Cyprian born, 37Having land, sold it, and brought the price, and laid it at the feet of the apostles.

1The Lord hath reigned, he is clothed with beauty: the Lord is clothed with strength, and hath girded himself. For he hath established the world which shall not be moved.

2Thy throne is prepared from of old: thou art from everlasting.

5Thy testimonies are become exceedingly credible: holiness becometh thy house, O Lord, unto length of days.

7Wonder not, that I said to thee, you must be born again. 8The Spirit breatheth where he will; and thou hearest his voice, but thou knowest not whence he cometh, and whither he goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. 9Nicodemus answered, and said to him: How can these things be done? 10Jesus answered, and said to him: Art thou a master in Israel, and knowest not these things? 11Amen, amen I say to thee, that we speak what we know, and we testify what we have seen, and you receive not our testimony. 12If I have spoken to you earthly things, and you believe not; how will you believe, if I shall speak to you heavenly things? 13And no man hath ascended into heaven, but he that descended from heaven, the Son of man who is in heaven. 14And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert, so must the Son of man be lifted up: 15That whosoever believeth in him, may not perish; but may have life everlasting.
