Song of Solomon 2:8-13 
2:8 The voice of my beloved! Look, he comes, leaping upon the mountains, bounding over the hills. 
 
2:9 My beloved is like a gazelle or a young stag. Look, there he stands behind our wall, gazing in at the windows, looking through the lattice. 
 
2:10 My beloved speaks and says to me: "Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away; 
 
2:11 for now the winter is past, the rain is over and gone. 
 
2:12 The flowers appear on the earth; the time of singing has come, and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land. 
 
2:13 The fig tree puts forth its figs, and the vines are in blossom; they give forth fragrance. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away.

Psalm 145 
 
1 I will exalt you, my God the King; 
 I will praise your name for ever and ever. 
2 Every day I will praise you 
 and extol your name for ever and ever. 
 
3 Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; 
 his greatness no one can fathom. 
4 One generation commends your works to another; 
 they tell of your mighty acts. 
5 They speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty— 
 and I will meditate on your wonderful works.[b] 
6 They tell of the power of your awesome works— 
 and I will proclaim your great deeds. 
7 They celebrate your abundant goodness 
 and joyfully sing of your righteousness. 
 
8 The Lord is gracious and compassionate, 
 slow to anger and rich in love. 
 
9 The Lord is good to all; 
 he has compassion on all he has made. 
10 All your works praise you, Lord; 
 your faithful people extol you. 
11 They tell of the glory of your kingdom 
 and speak of your might, 
12 so that all people may know of your mighty acts 
 and the glorious splendor of your kingdom. 
13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, 
 and your dominion endures through all generations. 
 
The Lord is trustworthy in all he promises 
 and faithful in all he does.[c] 
14 The Lord upholds all who fall 
 and lifts up all who are bowed down. 
15 The eyes of all look to you, 
 and you give them their food at the proper time. 
16 You open your hand 
 and satisfy the desires of every living thing. 
 
17 The Lord is righteous in all his ways 
 and faithful in all he does. 
18 The Lord is near to all who call on him, 
 to all who call on him in truth. 
19 He fulfills the desires of those who fear him; 
 he hears their cry and saves them. 
20 The Lord watches over all who love him, 
 but all the wicked he will destroy. 
 
21 My mouth will speak in praise of the Lord. 
 Let every creature praise his holy name 
 for ever and ever.

Job 39:13-25 
 
13 “Did you give the beautiful wings to the peacocks? 
 Or wings and feathers to the ostrich, 
14 who leaves her eggs in the earth, 
 and warms them in dust, 
15 and forgets that a foot may crush them, 
 or that the wild beast may break them? 
16 She is hardened against her young ones, 
 as though they were not hers; 
 her labor is in vain, without concern, 
17 because God has deprived her of wisdom, 
 nor has He imparted understanding to her. 
18 When she lifts up herself on high, 
 she scorns the horse and his rider. 
 
19 “Have you given the horse strength? 
 Have you clothed his neck with thunder? 
20 Can you make him afraid like a grasshopper? 
 The glory of his nostrils is awesome. 
21 He paws in the valley and rejoices in his strength; 
 he goes on to meet the armed men. 
22 He mocks at fear and is not frightened, 
 nor does he turn back from the sword. 
23 The quiver rattles against him, 
 the glittering spear and the shield. 
24 He devours the distance with fierceness and rage, 
 and he does not stand still at the sound of the trumpet. 
25 At the sound of the trumpet he says, ‘Aha’; 
 he smells the battle afar off, 
 the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.

Exodus 19:16-25 
New Revised Standard Version 
 
16 On the morning of the third day there was thunder and lightning, as well as a thick cloud on the mountain, and a blast of a trumpet so loud that all the people who were in the camp trembled. 17 Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet God. They took their stand at the foot of the mountain. 18 Now Mount Sinai was wrapped in smoke, because the Lord had descended upon it in fire; the smoke went up like the smoke of a kiln, while the whole mountain shook violently. 19 As the blast of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses would speak and God would answer him in thunder. 20 When the Lord descended upon Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain, the Lord summoned Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up. 21 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go down and warn the people not to break through to the Lord to look; otherwise many of them will perish. 22 Even the priests who approach the Lord must consecrate themselves or the Lord will break out against them.” 23 Moses said to the Lord, “The people are not permitted to come up to Mount Sinai; for you yourself warned us, saying, ‘Set limits around the mountain and keep it holy.’” 24 The Lord said to him, “Go down, and come up bringing Aaron with you; but do not let either the priests or the people break through to come up to the Lord; otherwise he will break out against them.” 25 So Moses went down to the people and told them.

Psalm 66:16-20 
 
16 Come and hear, all you who fear God, 
 and I will tell what he has done for me. 
17 I cried aloud to him, 
 and he was extolled with my tongue. 
18 If I had cherished iniquity in my heart, 
 the Lord would not have listened. 
19 But truly God has listened; 
 he has given heed to the words of my prayer. 
 
20 Blessed be God, 
 because he has not rejected my prayer 
 or removed his steadfast love from me.
