Before Torah Reading
Matthew 5:17-20
Do not think that I came to dismiss the Torah or the Prophets. I have not come to dismiss, but to carry out. For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not one smallest letter or one stroke shall pass away from the Torah, until everything happens. Therefore, anyone who dismisses one of these small mitzvoth (Commandments), and thus teach the sons of men to do so, will be called little in the Kingdom of Heaven; but those who do and teach them shall be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven.
When Removing Torah From Ark
When the Ark set out, Mosha would say: Arise, O AdonYah, and Your adversaries will be scattered, and Your enemies will flee before You. For from Zion shall go forth the Torah, and the Word of AdonYah from Jerusalem. Blessed is He who in His holiness gave Torah to His people Israel.
The Torah which Moshe commanded us is the heritage of congregation of Ya’aqub. (Kiss the Torah)
THE BOOK OF JAMES
Chapter 5
1 O you rich ones, wail and weep, on account of the miseries that are coming upon you.
2 For your wealth is spoiled and putrid; and your garments are moth-eaten:
3 and your gold and your silver have contracted rust; and the rust of them will be testimony against you; and it will eat your flesh. You have heaped up a fire to you against the latter days.
4 Behold, the wages of the laborers who have reaped your ground, which you have wrongfully retained, cries out; and the clamor of the reapers has entered the ears of Mar-Yah of Sabaoth.
5 For you have lived in pleasure on the earth, and revelled, and feasted your bodies as in a day of slaughter.
6 You have condemned and slain the just, and none resisted you.
7 But, my brethren, be you patient until the advent of Mar-Yah; like the husbandman, who waits for the precious fruits of his ground, and is patient as to them, until he receive the early and the latter rain.
8 So also be you patient, and fortify your hearts; for the advent of Maran draws nigh
9 Be not querulous one against another, my brethren, lest you be judged: for lo, the judgment , stands before the door.
10 For patience in your afflictions, my brethren, take to you the example of the prophets, who spoke in the Name of Mar-Yah.
11 For lo, we ascribe blessedness to them who have borne suffering. You have heard of the patience of Job; and you have seen the result which Mar-Yah wrought for him: for Mar-Yah is merciful and compassionate.
12 But above all things, my brethren, swear you not; neither by heaven, nor by the earth, nor by any other oath: but let your language be yes, yes, and no, no, lest you become obnoxious to judgment.
13 And if any of you shall be in affliction, let him pray; or if he be joyous, let him sing psalms.
14 And if one is sick, let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray for him, and anoint him with oil in the name of Maran:
15 and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and Maran will raise him up; and if sins have been committed by him, they will be forgiven him.
16 And confess you your faults one to another, and pray you one for another, that you may be healed; for great is the efficacy of the prayer which a righteous man prays.
17 Eliyahu also was a man of sensations like us, and he prayed that rain might not descend upon the earth; and it descended not, for three years and six
18 And again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth gave forth its fruits.
19 My brethren, if one of you err from the way of truth, and any one convert him from his error;
20 let him know, that he who turns the sinner from the error of his way, will resuscitate his soul from death, and will cover the multitude of his sins.

Syriac Peshitto James 5 Authorized use by +Mar Eshwan, Bishop
Gospel of Thomas v. 90-9
90) Jesus said, “Come unto me, for My yoke is easy and My
lordship is mild, and you will find repose for yourselves.”
91) They said to Him, “Tell us who You are so that we may
believe in You.”
He said to them, “You read the face of the sky and of the
earth, but you have not recognized the one who is before you, and
you do not know how to read this moment.”
92) Jesus said, “Seek and you will find. Yet, what you asked Me
about in former times and which I did not tell you then, now I do
desire to tell, but you do not enquire after it.”
93)
throw them on the dung-heap. Do not throw the pearls to swine,
lest they grind it [to bits].”
94) Jesus [said], “He who seeks will find, and [he who knocks]
will be let in.”
95) [Jesus said,] “If you have money, do not lend it at
interest, but give [it] to one from whom you will not get it
back.”
96) Jesus [said], “The Kingdom of the Father is like a certain
woman. She took a little leaven, [concealed] it in some dough,
and made it into large loaves. Let him who has ears hear.”
97) Jesus said, “The Kingdom of the [Father] is like a certain
woman who was carrying a jar full of meal. While she was walking
[on] a road, still some distance from home, the handle of the jar
broke and the meal emptied out behind her on the road. She did
not realize it; she had noticed no accident. When she reached her
house, she set the jar down and found it empty.”
98) Jesus said, “The Kingdom of the Father is like a certain man
who wanted to kill a powerful man. In his own house he drew his
sword and stuck it into the wall in order to find out whether his
hand could carry through. Then he slew the powerful man.”
99) The disciples said to Him, “Your brothers and Your mother
are standing outside.”
He said to them, “Those here who do the will of My Father
are My brothers and My mother. It is they who will enter the
Kingdom of My Father.”

Ode 30
Ode Thirty 1 The gentle showers of the Lord overshadowed me with serenity, and they caused a cloud of peace to rise over my head;
2 That it might guard me at all times. And it became salvation to me.
3 Everyone was disturbed and afraid, and there came from them smoke and judgement.
4 But I was tranquil in the Lord’s legion; more than shade was He to me, and more than foundation.
5 And I was carried like a child by its mother; and He gave me milk, the dew of the Lord.
6 And I was enriched by His favour, and rested in His perfection.
7 And I spread out my hands in the ascent of myself, and I directed myself towards the Most High, and I was redeemed towards Him. Halleluyah.
After Torah Reading
Psalm 119:18
Happy are they who are upright in the way, who walk in the Torah of AdonYah. Happy are they who keep His testimonies, that seek Him with the whole heart. They do no unrighteousness; they walk in His way. You have ordained Your precepts, that we should observe them diligently. Oh that my ways were directed to observe Your statutes! Then I would not be ashamed, when I have given diligence unto all Your mitzvoth. I will give thanks unto You with uprightness of heart, when I learn Your righteous ordinances. I will observe Your statutes; do not utterly forsake me.
Lord Yeshua, you who were brought forth by the very hand of God the Father, made known to the Blessed Mother Maryam, by the message of the angel Gabriel — I praise you, I thank you and I honour you with all my heart. It was you who said, ‘I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me, shall not hunger; and he that believeth on me, shall never thirst.’ Grant unto the presence of the Spirit of holiness as you promised to your disciples, so that I may understand the Word of God and the Will of the Father for me. Amen.
