A prayer for Pentecost from the Gelasian Sacramentary

O God, who didst graciously send on thy disciples the Holy Spirit in the burning fire of thy love: Grant to thy people to be fervent in the unity of faith; that abiding in thee evermore, they may be found steadfast in faith and active in service; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

From the Morning Bible Readings

He who justifies the wicked and he who condemns the righteous
    are both alike an abomination to the Lord.
Why should a fool have a price in his hand to buy wisdom,
    when he has no mind?
A friend loves at all times,
    and a brother is born for adversity.
A man without sense gives a pledge,
    and becomes surety in the presence of his neighbor.
He who loves transgression loves strife;
    he who makes his door high seeks destruction.
A man of crooked mind does not prosper,
    and one with a perverse tongue falls into calamity.

–Proverbs 17:5-10
