Today is the Feast of Weeks.
Hayom chag shavuot.
Let every thing that has breath praise Adonai. Halleluyah!
(Psalm 150:6 CJB)
For the leader. With stringed instruments. A psalm. A song:
God, be gracious to us, and bless us.
May he make his face shine toward us, (Selah)
so that your way may be known on earth,
your salvation among all nations.
Let the peoples give thanks to you, God;
let the peoples give thanks to you, all of them.
Let the nations be glad and shout for joy,
for you will judge the peoples fairly
and guide the nations on earth. (Selah)
Let the peoples give thanks to you, God;
let the peoples give thanks to you, all of them.
The earth has yielded its harvest;
may God, our God, bless us.
May God continue to bless us,
so that all the ends of the earth will fear him.
(Psalm 67:1-7 CJB)
The festival of Shavu`ot arrived, and the believers all gathered together in one place. Suddenly there came a sound from the sky like the roar of a violent wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. Then they saw what looked like tongues of fire, which separated and came to rest on each one of them. They were all filled with the Ruach HaKodesh and began to talk in different languages, as the Spirit enabled them to speak.
(Acts 2:1-4 CJB)
