And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

Truly, truly, I say to you, you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn into joy.When a woman is giving birth, she has sorrow because her hour has come, but when she has delivered the baby, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a human being has been born into the world.So also you have sorrow now, but I will see you again, and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you.

Now there were in the church at Antioch prophets and teachers, Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen a lifelong friend of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said,“ Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”Then after fasting and praying they laid their hands on them and sent them off.

And when they had appointed elders for them in every church, with prayer and fasting they committed them to the Lord in whom they had believed.

In that day the Lord God of hosts called for weeping and mourning, for baldness and wearing sackcloth;

That very day two of them were going to a village named Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem,and they were talking with each other about all these things that had happened.While they were talking and discussing together, Jesus himself drew near and went with them.But their eyes were kept from recognizing him.And he said to them,“ What is this conversation that you are holding with each other as you walk?” And they stood still, looking sad.Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered him,“ Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?”And he said to them,“ What things?” And they said to him,“ Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, a man who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people,and how our chief priests and rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him.But we had hoped that he was the one to redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things happened.

“ Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom.Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them,but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps.As the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and slept.But at midnight there was a cry,‘ Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.’Then all those virgins rose and trimmed their lamps.And the foolish said to the wise,‘ Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’But the wise answered, saying,‘ Since there will not be enough for us and for you, go rather to the dealers and buy for yourselves.’And while they were going to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut.

Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

In many-colored robes she is led to the king, with her virgin companions following behind her.With joy and gladness they are led along as they enter the palace of the king.

But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart.

As soon as the people saw him, they brought thirty companions to be with him.And Samson said to them,“ Let me now put a riddle to you. If you can tell me what it is, within the seven days of the feast, and find it out, then I will give you thirty linen garments and thirty changes of clothes,but if you cannot tell me what it is, then you shall give me thirty linen garments and thirty changes of clothes.” And they said to him,“ Put your riddle, that we may hear it.”And he said to them,“ Out of the eater came something to eat. Out of the strong came something sweet.” And in three days they could not solve the riddle.On the fourth day they said to Samson’s wife,“ Entice your husband to tell us what the riddle is, lest we burn you and your father’s house with fire. Have you invited us here to impoverish us?”And Samson’s wife wept over him and said,“ You only hate me; you do not love me. You have put a riddle to my people, and you have not told me what it is.” And he said to her,“ Behold, I have not told my father nor my mother, and shall I tell you?”She wept before him the seven days that their feast lasted, and on the seventh day he told her, because she pressed him hard. Then she told the riddle to her people.And the men of the city said to him on the seventh day before the sun went down,“ What is sweeter than honey? What is stronger than a lion?” And he said to them,“ If you had not plowed with my heifer, you would not have found out my riddle.”And the Spirit of the Lord rushed upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon and struck down thirty men of the town and took their spoil and gave the garments to those who had told the riddle. In hot anger he went back to his father’s house.And Samson’s wife was given to his companion, who had been his best man.

And when he had said these things, as they were looking on, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him out of their sight.And while they were gazing into heaven as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white robes,

in toil and hardship, through many a sleepless night, in hunger and thirst, often without food, in cold and exposure.
