The Reading is from Genesis:

Reader: God appeared unto Abram and said to

him: “I am thy God. Be well-pleasing before

Me, and be blameless. And I will establish My

covenant between Me and thee, and I will

multiply thee exceedingly. Thou shalt be the

father of a multitude of nations. And thy name

shall no more be called Abram, but thy name

shall be Abraham, for I have made thee a father

of many nations. And I will increase thee very

exceedingly, and I will make nations of thee,

and kings shall come out of thee. And I will

establish My covenant between thee and thy

seed after thee, to their generations, for an

everlasting covenant, to be thy God, and the

God of thy seed after thee.” And Abraham fell

upon his face, and worshipped the Lord. And

the Lord said unto Abraham: “Thou shalt also

fully keep My covenant, thou and thy seed after

thee for their generations. And this is the

covenant which thou shalt fully keep between

Me and you, and between thy seed after thee for

their generations: every male of you shall be

circumcised. And ye shall be circumcised in the

flesh of your foreskin, and it shall be for a sign

of a covenant between me and you, and between

thy seed after thee for their generations. And

the child of eight days old shall be circumcised

by you, every male throughout your

generations. And the uncircumcised male, who

shall not be circumcised in the flesh of his

foreskin on the eighth day, he shall be utterly

cut-off from his family, for he hath broken My

covenant.”

before all the hills, He begat Me. The Lord

made countries and uninhabited tracts, and the

highest inhabited parts of the world. When He

prepared heaven, I was present with Him; and

when He prepared His throne upon the winds,

and when He strengthened the clouds above,

and when He secured the fountains of the earth,

and when He strengthened the foundations of

the earth: I was like unto Him. I was that

wherein He took delight, and daily I rejoiced in

His presence continually.

The Reading is from Proverbs:

Reader: The mouth of the righteous droppeth

wisdom: but the tongue of the unjust shall

perish. The lips of just men drop grace: but the

mouth of the ungodly is perverse. False

balances are an abomination before the Lord:

but a just weight is acceptable unto Him.

Wherever pride entereth, there will also

disgrace: but the mouth of the humble doth

meditate wisdom. The integrity of the upright

shall guide them, but the overthrow of the

rebellious shall spoil them. Possessions shall

not profit in the day of wrath, but

¬righteousness will deliver from death. When a

just man dieth, he leaveth regret: but the

destruction of the ungodly is speedy and causeth

joy. Righteousness traceth out blameless paths:

but ungodliness encountereth unjust dealing.

The righteousness of upright men delivereth

them: but transgressors are caught in their own

destruction. At the death of a just man his hope

doth not perish: but the boast of the ungodly

perisheth. A righteous man escapeth from a

snare, and the ungodly man is delivered up in

his place. In the mouth of ungodly men is a

snare for citizens: but the understanding of

righteous men is prosperous. In the prosperity

of righteous men a city prospereth, but at the

destruction of the wicked there is exultation. At

the blessing of the upright a city shall be

exalted, but by the mouths of ungodly men it is

overthrown. A man void of understanding

sneereth at his fellow citizens: but a sensible

man is quiet.
