Psalm 128:1-5
1 A Canticle in steps. Blessed are all those who fear the Lord, who walk in his ways. 2 For you will eat by the labors of your hands. Blessed are you, and it will be well with you. 3 Your wife is like an abundant vine on the sides of your house. Your sons are like young olive trees surrounding your table. 4 Behold, so will the man be blessed who fears the Lord. 5 May the Lord bless you from Zion, and may you see the good things of Jerusalem, all the days of your life. Genesis 17:1, 9-10, 15-22 1 In the beginning, God created heaven and earth. 9 Truly God said: "Let the waters that are under heaven be gathered together into one place; and let the dry land appear." And so it became. 10 And God called the dry land, 'Earth,' and he called the gathering of the waters, 'Seas.' And God saw that it was good. 15 Let them shine in the firmament of heaven and illuminate the earth." And so it became. 16 And God made two great lights: a greater light, to rule over the day, and a lesser light, to rule over the night, along with the stars. 17 And he set them in the firmament of heaven, to give light over all the earth, 18 and to rule over the day as well as the night, and to divide light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. 19 And it became evening and morning, the fourth day. 20 And then God said, "Let the waters produce animals with a living soul, and flying creatures above the earth, under the firmament of heaven." 21 And God created the great sea creatures, and everything with a living soul and the ability to move that the waters produced, according to their species, and all the flying creatures, according to their kind. And God saw that it was good. 22 And he blessed them, saying: "Increase and multiply, and fill the waters of the sea. And let the birds be multiplied above the land."
