Genesis 3:9-15,20
(9) Yahweh God called to the man, and said to him, “Where are you?” (10) The man said, “I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.” (11) God said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?” (12) The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate it.” (13) Yahweh God said to the woman, “What have you done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.” (14) Yahweh God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this, you are cursed above all livestock, and above every animal of the field. You shall go on your belly and you shall eat dust all the days of your life. (15) I will put hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel.” (20) The man called his wife Eve because she would be the mother of all the living.

Acts 1:12-14
(12) Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day’s journey away. (13) When they had come in, they went up into the upper room, where they were staying; that is Peter, John, James, Andrew, Philip, Thomas, Bartholomew, Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James. (14) All these with one accord continued steadfastly in prayer and supplication, along with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.

Psalms 87:1-3,5-7
(1) His foundation is in the holy mountains. (2) Yahweh loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob. (3) Glorious things are spoken about you, city of God. Selah. (5) Yes, of Zion it will be said, “This one and that one was born in her”; the Most High himself will establish her. (6) Yahweh will count, when he writes up the peoples, “This one was born there.” Selah. (7) Those who sing as well as those who dance say, “All my springs are in you.”

John 19:25-34
(25) But there were standing by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. (26) Therefore when Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing there, he said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son!” (27) Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” From that hour, the disciple took her to his own home. (28) After this, Jesus, seeing that all things were now finished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, “I am thirsty.” (29) Now a vessel full of vinegar was set there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop, and held it at his mouth. (30) When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, “It is finished.” He bowed his head, and gave up his spirit. (31) Therefore the Jews, because it was the Preparation Day, so that the bodies wouldn’t remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special one), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. (32) Therefore the soldiers came, and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who was crucified with him; (33) but when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was already dead, they didn’t break his legs. (34) However one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.
