CHAPTER 1

Year One


Ash Wednesday

A Reading (Lesson) from the Book of Jonah [3:1–4:11]

The word of the Lord came to Jonah a second time, saying, "Get up,go to Nineveh, that great city, and proclaim to it the message that I tellyou." So Jonah set out and went to Nineveh, according to the word ofthe Lord. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly large city, a three days'walk across. Jonah began to go into the city, going a day's walk. Andhe cried out, "Forty days more, and Nineveh shall be overthrown!" Andthe people of Nineveh believed God; they proclaimed a fast, and everyone,great and small, put on sackcloth. When the news reached theking of Nineveh, he rose from his throne, removed his robe, coveredhimself with sackcloth, and sat in ashes. Then he had a proclamationmade in Nineveh: "By the decree of the king and his nobles: No humanbeing or animal, no herd or flock, shall taste anything. They shall notfeed, nor shall they drink water. Human beings and animals shall becovered with sackcloth, and they shall cry mightily to God. All shallturn from their evil ways and from the violence that is in their hands.Who knows? God may relent and change his mind; he may turn fromhis fierce anger, so that we do not perish." When God saw what theydid, how they turned from their evil ways, God changed his mindabout the calamity that he had said he would bring upon them; and hedid not do it. But this was very displeasing to Jonah, and he becameangry. He prayed to the Lord and said, "O Lord! Is not this what Isaid while I was still in my own country? That is why I fled to Tarshishat the beginning; for I knew that you are a gracious God and merciful,slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love, and ready to relentfrom punishing. And now, O Lord, please take my life from me, for itis better for me to die than to live." And the Lord said, "Is it right foryou to be angry?" Then Jonah went out of the city and sat down eastof the city, and made a booth for himself there. He sat under it in theshade, waiting to see what would become of the city. The Lord Godappointed a bush, and made it come up over Jonah, to give shade overhis head, to save him from his discomfort; so Jonah was very happyabout the bush. But when dawn came up the next day, God appointeda worm that attacked the bush, so that it withered. When the sun rose,God prepared a sultry east wind, and the sun beat down on the head ofJonah so that he was faint and asked that he might die. He said, "It isbetter for me to die than to live." But God said to Jonah, "Is it rightfor you to be angry about the bush?" And he said, "Yes, angry enoughto die." Then the Lord said, "You are concerned about the bush, forwhich you did not labor and which you did not grow; it came intobeing in a night and perished in a night. And should I not be concernedabout Nineveh, that great city, in which there are more than a hundredand twenty thousand persons who do not know their right hand fromtheir left, and also many animals?"


A Reading (Lesson) from the Letter to the Hebrews [12:1–14]

Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, letus also lay aside every weight and the sin that clings so closely, and letus run with perseverance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesusthe pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the sake of the joy thatwas set before him endured...
