1 Blesse God O my soule: and all that is within me [prayse] his holy name
2 Blesse God O my soule: and forget not all his benefites
3 Who forgeueth all thy wickednesse: and healeth all thine infirmities
4 Who redeemeth thy lyfe from destruction: [and] crowneth thee with mercie and louyng kyndnesse
5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good thynges: causyng thy youth lyke an Egles to be renued
6 God executeth iustice and iudgement: for all them that are oppressed with wrong
7 He made his wayes knowen vnto Moyses: his workes vnto the children of Israel
8 God is full of compassion and pitie: loth to be angry, and exceedyng great in mercie
9 He vseth not to continue in chydyng: neither reserueth he [his anger] for euer
10 He dealeth not with vs accordyng to our sinnes: nor rewardeth vs according to our wickednesse
11 For accordyng to the hyghnesse of heauen aboue the earth: his mercie preuayleth to them that feare hym
12 [Loke] howe farre distaunt the east is from the west: so farre a sunder setteth he our sinnes from vs
13 Yea lyke as a father pitieth [his owne] children: euen so is God mercifull vnto them that feare hym
14 For he knoweth wherof we be made: he remembreth that we are but dust
15 The dayes of man are as [the dayes] of an hearbe: he florisheth as a flowre in the fielde
16 For the winde passeth ouer it, and it is no more [seene]: and the place therof knoweth it no more
17 But the mercifull goodnesse of God endureth for euer and euer, vpon them that feare hym: and his righteousnesse vpon childers children
18 Euen vpon such as kepe his couenaunt: and thinke vpon his commaundementes to do them
19 God hath prepared his seate in heauen: and his kyngdome ruleth ouer all
20 Blesse God O ye his angels mightie in operation: who fulfyll his worde in hearkening vnto the voyce of his word
21 Blesse God all ye his hoastes: you his ministers that do his pleasure
22 Blesse God all you his workes in all places of his dominion: O my soule blesse thou God
104 1 My soule blesse thou God: O God my Lord thou art become exceeding great, thou hast put on glory and maiestie
2 Who is decked with light as it were with a garment: spreadyng out the heauens like a curtayne
3 Who seeleth his vpper chaumbers with waters: and maketh the cloudes his charriot, and walketh vpon the wynges of the wynde
4 He maketh his angels spirites: and his ministers a flaming fire
5 He hath layde the earth sure vpon her foundations: that it can neuer moue at any tyme
6 Thou coueredst it with the deepe, lyke as with a garment: the waters stande vpon the hilles
7 At thy rebuke they flee: at the noyse of thy thunder they bluster downe apace
8 The hilles mount aloft: and the valleys settle downe beneath vnto the place where thou hast layde a foundation for them
9 Thou hast set them their boundes which they shall not passe: neither shall they returne agayne to couer the earth
10 Who also causeth the springes which runne betweene the hilles: to flowe into the riuers
11 All beastes of the fielde drinke therof: and the wylde asses quench their thirst
12 The foules of the ayre haue their habitation nigh vnto them: singing out of the midst of the bowes [of trees.
13 He watereth the hilles from aboue: the earth is replenished with the fruite of thy workes
14 He causeth grasse to growe for cattell: and hearbes for the vse of man
15 That he may bryng foorth foode out of the earth: both wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oyle to make hym haue a chearefull countenaunce, & also bread to strengthen mans heart
16 The trees of God be satisfied: euen the Cedars of Libanus which he hath planted
17 Wherin the birdes make their nestes: in the fyrre trees the storke buyldeth
18 The high hilles are a refuge for goates: and so are the stonie rockes for conies
19 He hath made the moone for certayne seasons: and the sunne knoweth his goyng downe
20 Thou makest darknes and it is night: wherein all the beastes of the forrest do go abrode
21 The Lions do roare after a pray: and in seeking their meate of God
22 When the sunne ariseth, they recoyle backe: and lay them downe to rest in their dennes
23 Man goeth foorth to his worke: and to do his seruice vntyll the euening
24 O God howe manyfolde are thy workes? thou hast made them al in wisdome, the earth is ful of thy ryches
25 So is the sea it selfe large and wyde in compasse: wherein are thinges creeping innumerable, both small and great beastes
26 There go the shippes, and there is that Leuiathan: whom thou hast made to take his pastime therin
27 These wayte all vpon thee: that thou mayest geue them meate in due season
28 When thou geuest it them, they gather it: and when thou openest thyne hand, they are filled with that which is good
29 When thou hydest thy face, they are troubled: when thou takest away their spirite, they dye, and are turned agayne to their dust
30 When thou sendest out thy spirite, they be recreated: and thou reuiuest the face of the earth
31 The glorious maiestie of God shal endure for euer: God wyll reioyce in his workes
32 He beholdeth the earth, & it trembleth: he toucheth the hilles, and they smoke
33 I wyll syng vnto God as long as I liue: I will sing psalmes vnto my Lord so long as I shall be
34 My meditations of hym shalbe very pleasaunt: for all my ioy shalbe in God
35 As for sinners they shalbe consumed out of the earth: and the vngodly shall come to an ende, blesse thou God O my soule, [and] prayse you the Lorde
105 1 Confesse you [it] vnto God, call vppon his name: cause the people to vnderstande his deuises
2 Sing vnto hym, sing psalmes vnto him: talke you of all his wonderous workes
3 Glary ye in his holy name: let the heart of them reioyce that do seeke God
4 Seeke God and his strength: seeke his face euermore
5 Remember the meruaylous workes that he hath done: his wonders, and the iudgementes of his mouth
6 (105:6a) O ye seede of Abraham his seruaunt, ye his chosen chyldren of Iacob
7 (105:6b) he is God our Lord, his iudgementes are in all the earth
8 (105:7a) He hath ben mindfull alwayes of his couenaunt (for he promised a worde to a thousande generations:
9 (105:7b) euen of his couenaunt that he made with Abraham, and of his othe vnto Isaac
10 (105:8) And he appointed the same vnto Iacob for a law: and to Israel for an euerlasting couenaunt
11 (105:9) Saying, vnto thee I wyll geue the lande of Chanaan: the lot of your inheritaunce
12 (105:10a) When they were a fewe men in number, and had ben straungers but a litle whyle in it
13 (105:10b) and when they went from one nation to another, from one kingdome to another people
14 (105:11) He suffred no man to do them wrong: yea he reproued euen kynges for their sakes
15 (105:12) Touche not mine annoynted: and triumph not ouer my prophetes
16 (105:13) Moreouer he called for a famine vpon the lande: and he made all maner of foode to fayle
17 (105:14) But he had sent a man before them: euen Ioseph, who was solde to be a bonde seruaunt
18 (105:15) Whose feete they dyd hurt in the stockes: the iron entred into his soule
19 (105:16) Vntill the tyme came that his cause [was knowen:] the worde of the Lorde tryed hym
20 (105:17) The king sent and caused hym to be let go: yea the prince of the people opened a way foorth for hym
21 (105:18) He made him Lorde of his house: and ruler of all his substaunce
22 (105:19) That he might enfourme his princes according to his minde: and teache his senatours wysdome
23 (105:20) Israel also came into Egypt: & Iacob was a straunger in the lande of Cham
24 (105:21) And he encreased his people exceedinglye: and made them stronger then their enemies
25 (105:22) Whose heart so turned that they hated his people: and dealt subtilly with his seruauntes
26 (105:23a) [Then] he sent Moyses his seruaunt, and Aaron whom he had chosen
27 (105:23b) they did their message, workyng his signes among them, and wonders in the lande of Cham
28 (105:24) He sent darknes, & it was darke: and they went not from his wordes
29 (105:25) He turned their waters into blood: and slue their fishe
30 (105:26) Their lande brought foorth frogges: yea euen in their kinges chaumbers
31 (105:27) He spake the worde, and there came a swarme of all maner of flyes: [and] of lyce in all their quarters
32 (105:28) He gaue them haylestones for rayne: [and] flambes of fire in their lande
33 (105:29) He smote their vines also & figge trees: and he destroyed the trees that were in their coastes
34 (105:30) He spake the worde, and the grashoppers came: & caterpillers innumerable
35 (105:31) And they did eate vp all the grasse in their lande: and deuoured the fruite of their grounde
36 (105:32) He smote al the first borne in their land: euen the first fruites of all their concupiscence
37 (105:33) He also brought them foorth with siluer and golde: there was not one feeble person in their tribes
38 (105:34) Egypt was glad at their departing: for they were smytten with dread of them
39 (105:35) He spred out a cloude to be a couering: and fire to geue light in the night season
40 (105:36) The [people] required and he brought quayles: and he filled them with the bread of heauen
41 (105:37) He opened the rocke of stone and the waters flowed out: so that streames ranne in drye places
42 (105:38) For he remembred his holy worde: [spoken] vnto Abraham his seruaunt
43 (105:39) And he brought foorth his people with gladnes: [and] his chosen with a ioyfull noyse
44 (105:40) And he gaue them the landes of the Heathen, and they toke to inheritaunce the labours of the people
45 (105:41) To the intent that they shoulde kepe his statutes: and obserue his lawes. Prayse ye the Lorde
106 1 Confesse you [it] vnto god, for he is gratious: and his mercy endureth for euer
2 Who can expresse the valiaunt actes of God: who can publishe abrode all his prayse
3 Blessed are they that kepe iudgement: and do iustice at all times
4 Remember me O God according to the fauour that thou bearest vnto thy people: O visite me with thy saluation
5 That I may see the felicitie of thy chosen, that I may reioyce at the gladnes of thy people: [and] that I may glorie with thyne inheritaunce
6 We haue sinned with our fathers: we haue done amisse and dealt wickedly
7 Our fathers did not well consider thy wonders in Egypt, neither did they remember thy manifolde great goodnes: but they rebelled at the sea, euen at the red sea
8 Neuerthelesse, he saued them for his names sake: that he myght make his power to be knowen
9 And he rebuked the red sea, and it was dryed vp: so he led them through the deepe, as through a wyldernesse
10 And he saued them from the hande of suche as hated them: & redeemed them from the hande of the enemie
11 As for their aduersaries the waters ouerwhelmed them: there was not one of them left remayning
12 Then beleued they his wordes: and song prayse vnto him
13 But within a very short whyle they forgat his workes: they woulde not wayte for his counsell
14 And they were taken with a great lust in the wyldernesse: and they tempted God in the desert
15 And he gaue them their desire: and sent leannes withal into their soule
16 They enuied also at Moyses in the tentes: [and] at Aaron the saint of God
17 So the earth opened and swalowed vp Dathan: and couered the company of Abiram
18 And the fire was kindled in their company: the flambe brent vp the vngodly
19 They made a calfe in Horeb: and worshipped the moulten image
20 Thus they turned their glory: into the similitude of a calfe that eateth hay
21 (106:21a) They forgat God their sauiour, who had done so great thynges in Egypt
22 (106:21b) wonderous workes in ye land of Cham, [and] terrible thinges at the red sea
23 (106:22) Wherfore he appointed to destroy them, had not Moyses his chosen stand in the breache before hym: to turne away his wrathful indignation, lest he should destroy them
24 (106:23) Yea they thought scorne of the lande most to be desired: they gaue no credite vnto his worde
25 (106:24) But they murmured in their tentes: they would not hearken vnto the voyce of God
26 (106:25a) Then lift he vp his hand against them, to geue them an ouerthrowe in the wildernesse
27 (106:25b) to geue their seede an ouerthrowe amongst the nations, and to scatter them in sundry landes
28 (106:26) They ioyned them selues vnto Baal Peor: they also did eate of the sacrifices of the dead
29 (106:27) And they prouoked the [Lorde] vnto anger with their owne inuentions: and a plague fell mightily amongst them
30 (106:28) Then stoode vp Phinehes, he executed iustice: and so the plague ceassed
31 (106:29) And that was imputed vnto hym for righteousnesse: in generation and generation for euermore
32 (106:30) They also prouoked [God] at the waters of strife: and all was not well with Moyses for their sakes
33 (106:31) For they had caused an alteration to be of his spirite: so that he spake vnaduisedly with his lippes
34 (106:32) Moreouer, they destroyed not the Heathen: as God commaunded them
35 (106:33) But they were mingled amongst the Heathen: and learned their workes
36 (106:34) Insomuch that they dyd seruice vnto their idols: whiche were to the a snare
37 (106:35) Yea they sacrifised their sonnes: and their daughters vnto deuils
38 (106:36) And they shed innocent blood, euen the blood of their sonnes and of their daughters: whom they sacrifised vnto the idols of Chanaan, and the lande was defiled with blood
39 (106:37) Thus were they stayned with their owne workes: and went a whoryng with their owne inuentions
40 (106:38) Therfore was the wrath of God kindeled against his people: insomuch that he abhorred his owne inheritaunce
41 (106:39) And he gaue them ouer into the hand of the Heathen: and they that dyd hate them, were lordes ouer them
42 (106:40) Their enemies oppressed them: and brought them into subiection vnder their hande
43 (106:41) Many a time dyd [God] deliuer them, but they rebelled [against hym] with their owne inuentions: and were brought downe for their wickednes
44 (106:42) Neuerthelesse, he did beholde them in their aduersitie: in geuing eare to their complaint
45 (106:43) And he remembred his couenaunt: and repented, according to the multitude of his mercies
46 (106:44) Yea he made all those that led them away captiue: to pitie them
47 (106:45) Saue vs O God our Lorde, and gather vs from among the Heathen: that we may geue thankes to thy holy name, and glory of thy prayse
48 (106:46) Blessed be God the Lord of Israel from world to world without end: and let all people say, so be it. Prayse ye the Lord
107 1 Confesse you [it] vnto God: for he is gratious, and his mercy endureth for euer
2 Let such as God did redeme speake: whom he hath redeemed from the hande of the enemie
3 And whom he gathered out of the landes: from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south
4 (107:4a) They went astray out of the way in solitarines [and] in wildernes, and found no citie to dwell in
5 (107:4b) they were hungry and thirstie, their soule fainted in them
6 (107:5) And they cry vnto god in their trouble: who deliuereth them from their distresse
7 (107:6) And he leadeth them foorth by the right way: that they might go to the citie inhabited
8 (107:7) O that men would confesse vnto God his louyng kindnesse: and his marueylous actes [done] to the chyldren of men
9 (107:8) For he satisfieth the greedie soule: and filleth the hungry soule with goodnes
10 (107:9) Suche as sit in darknesse and in the shadowe of death: beyng fast bounde in miserie and iron
11 (107:10) Because they went from the wordes of the Lorde: and lightly regarded the counsayle of the most highest
12 (107:11) Therfore he humbled their heart thorowe heauines: they fall downe, and there is none to helpe them
13 (107:12) And they cry vnto god in their trouble: who deliuereth the out of their distresse
14 (107:13) For he bringeth them out of darknesse and out of the shadowe of death: and breaketh their bondes in sunder
15 (107:14) O that men would confesse vnto God: his louing kindnes and his marueylous actes [done] to the chyldren of men
16 (107:15) For he breaketh the gates of brasse: & smyteth the barres of iron in sunder
17 (107:16) Foolish men are plagued for their mischeuous wayes: & for their wickednes
18 (107:17) Their soule abhorreth all maner of meate: and they be euen harde at deathes doore
19 (107:18) And they crye vnto God in their trouble: who deliuereth them out of their distresse
20 (107:19) he sendeth his worde & healeth them: and he maketh them to scape safe from their corruptnes
21 (107:20) O that men would confesse vnto God: his louing kindnes and his marueylous actes [done] to the chyldren of men
22 (107:21) And that they would offer [vnto him] sacrifices of thankes geuing: and set foorth in wordes his workes with a ioyfull noyse
23 (107:22a) Such as go downe to the sea in ships and folowe their busines in great waters
24 (107:22b) they see the workes of God, and his wonders in the deepe
25 (107:23) For he commaundeth and causeth a stormie winde to arise: and he lifteth vp on high his waues
26 (107:24) [Then] they ascende vp to heauen, and come downe agayne to the deepe: so that their soule melteth away through trouble
27 (107:25) They reele to and fro, and they do stacker like a drunken man: and their wysdome fayleth them
28 (107:26) And they cry vnto god in their trouble: who deliuereth the out of their distresse
29 (107:27) For he maketh the storme to ceasse: so that the waues therof are still
30 (107:28) Then be they glad because they are at rest: and he bringeth them to the hauen where they woulde be
31 (107:29) O that men would confesse vnto god: his louyng kyndnes and meruaylous actes [done] to the chyldren of men
32 (107:30) And that they would exalt him in the congregation of the people: and prayse him in the consistorie of the aged
33 (107:31) He turneth fluddes into a wildernes: and waterspringes into a drye grounde
34 (107:32) He [maketh] a fruitfull grounde barren: for the wickednes of them that dwell therein
35 (107:33) [Contrary] he reduceth a wyldernes into a standing water: and a drye ground into water springes
36 (107:34) And he setteth there the hungry: and they buylde them a citie to dwell in
37 (107:35) And they sowe their lande and plant vineyardes: and they yelde [vnto them] aboundant store of fruites
38 (107:36) He blesseth them, so that they multiplie exceedingly: and he suffereth not their cattle to decrease
39 (107:37) But [when they do fall from God,] they are diminished & brought low: through oppression, calamitie, & griefe of minde
40 (107:38) He bringeth princes into contempt: & he maketh them to wander in a wildernesse where there is no way at all
41 (107:39) Yet he exalteth the poore out of miserie: and geueth him housholdes equall to flockes of cattell
42 (107:40) The righteous will marke [this] and reioyce: and the mouth of all wickednesse shalbe stopped
43 (107:41) Whosoeuer is wyse, he wyll both obserue these thinges: and also well consider the louing kindnesse of God
108 1 My heart is redye O Lorde: I wyll sing & prayse thee in singing of psalmes, yea my glory also is [redie.
2 Bestirre thee O lute and harpe: I my selfe wil bestirre me right early in the morning
3 I wyll prayse thee O God among the people: I wyll sing psalmes vnto thee among the nations
4 For the greatnes of thy mercy reacheth vnto the heauens: and thy trueth vnto the cloudes
5 Exalt thy selfe O Lord aboue the heauens: and let thy glory [be] aboue all the earth
6 That thy beloued may be deliuered: saue [me] with thy right hande, and heare thou me
7 The Lorde hath spoken this in his holynes (whereof I wyll reioyce:) I wyll deuide Sichem, and measure the valley of Sucoth
8 Gilead shalbe myne, and Manasses shalbe mine: Ephraim also shalbe the strength of my head, and Iuda my law geuer
9 Moab shalbe my washpot: ouer Edome I wyll cast my shoe, vpon Philistea I wyll triumph
10 Who wyll leade me into the strong citie? who wyll bring me into Edom
11 Hast not thou remoued vs from thence? and wylt not thou O Lorde go out with our hoastes
12 Geue vs ayde against trouble: for the sauing helpe of man is but vayne
13 Through the Lorde wyll we do valiaunt actes: for he him selfe will treade downe our enemies
109 1 Holde not thy tongue: O thou the Lorde of my prayse
2 For the mouth of the vngodly and the mouth of the deceiptfull is opened vpon me: they haue spoken against me with a false tongue
3 And they haue compassed me about with hatefull wordes: and fought against me without a cause
4 For the loue that I bare vnto them, they are become mine aduersaries: but I geue my selfe vnto prayer
5 Thus haue they rewarded me euyll for good: and hatred for my good wyll
6 Set thou an vngodly man to be ruler ouer him: and let Satan stande at his right hande
7 When sentence is geuen vpon hym, let him be condemned: and let his prayer be turned into sinne
8 Let his dayes be fewe: and let another take his office
9 Let his chyldren be fatherlesse: and his wyfe a wydowe
10 Let his children be vagaboundes and go a begging: and let them seeke [foode] out of their barren groundes
11 Let the extortioner bryng into his snare all that he hath: and let straungers spoyle his labour
12 Let there be no man to shewe hym any gentlenes: nor to haue compassion vpon his fatherlesse children
13 Let his posteritie come to destruction: and in the next generation let his name be cleane put out
14 Let the wyckednes of his fathers be had in remembraunce in the sight of God: and let not the sinne of his mother be wyped away
15 Let them be alway before God: that he may roote out the memorial of them from the earth
16 Because that he remembred not to do good: but he persecuted the afflicted and poore man, and hym whose heart was broken with sorow, that he might take his life from hym
17 His delight was in cursing, and it shal happen vnto him: he loued not blessing, therfore it hath ben farre from him
18 He clothed hym selfe with cursing, as with his garment: and it hath entred into his bowels like water, and like oyle into his bones
19 Let it be vnto hym as the garment that he is wrapt in: and as the gyrdle that he is alway gyrded withall
20 Let this rewarde be from God vnto myne aduersaries: and vnto those that speake euill against my soule
21 But thou O God my Lorde, do vnto me according vnto thy name: for sweete is thy mercy
22 Deliuer me, for truely I am afflicted: and I am poore, and my heart is wounded within me
23 I passe away like a vading shadowe: and I am dryuen from place to place lyke the grashopper
24 My knees are weake through fasting: my fleshe is dryed vp for want of fatnesse
25 I am become also a reproche vnto them: they gase vpon me [and] they shake their head
26 Helpe me O my Lorde: oh saue me according to thy mercy
27 And let the know how that this is thy hande: & that thou O God hast done it
28 They will curse, but thou wylt blesse: they wyl rise vp [against me] but let them be confounded, and thy seruaunt wyll reioyce
29 Let mine aduersaries be clothed with shame: & let them couer the selues with their owne cofusion, as with a garment
30 As for me I will greatly prayse God with my mouth: and I wyll prayse hym among the multitude
31 For he wyll stande at the right hande of the poore: to saue him from the iudges of his soule
110 1 God sayd vnto my Lorde: sit thou on my right hande, vntyll I make thyne enemies thy footestoole
2 God wyll sende the scepter of his power out of Sion: rule thou in the midst of thyne enemies
3 Thy people wyll be very wyllyng in the time [of shewing] thy most mightie power with a beautifull holynes: the deawe of thy byrth is to thee from the wombe [as] from the morning
4 God sware and he wyll not repent: thou art a priest for euer after the order of Melchisedec
5 The Lorde at thy right hande: wyll wounde euen kinges in the day of his wrath
6 He wyll iudge the Heathen: he wyll fill euery place with dead bodyes, he wyll smyte the head of a great countrey
7 He wyll drinke of the swyft running brooke in the way: therfore he wyll lift vp his head
111 1 I wyll prayse God with my whole heart: in the congregation and assemblie of righteous men
2 Great are the workes of God: sought out of all them that haue pleasure therin
3 His worke is glory and maiestie: and his righteousnes endureth for euer
4 The merciful and gratious God: hath so left a remembraunce of his meruaylous workes
5 He hath geuen meate vnto them that feare him: he wyll euer be myndfull of his couenaunt
6 He hath declared vnto his people the force of his workes: in geuing them the inheritaunce of the Heathen
7 The workes of his handes are veritie and iudgement: all his commaundementes are true
8 They be set sure for euer and euer: they are done in trueth and equitie
9 He did sende redemption vnto his people: he hath commaunded his couenaunt [to be] for euer, holy and terrible is his name
10 The beginning of wysdome is the feare of God: all they haue a good vnderstanding that do his commaundements, the praise of it endureth for euer
112 1 Blessed is the man that feareth God: he hath great delight in his commaundementes
2 His seede shalbe mightie vpon the earth: the generation of them that dwell vprightly, shalbe blessed
3 Riches and plenteousnes shalbe in his house: and his righteousnes endureth for euer
4 There ariseth vp light in the darknes: vnto them that deale vprightly he is merciful, and louing, and righteous

113 1 Prayse God ye seruauntes: prayse ye the name of God
2 Blessed be the name of God: from this time foorth for euermore
3 The name of God is to be praysed: from the rising vp of the sunne, vnto the goyng downe of the same
4 God is high aboue all Heathen: and his glory aboue the heauens
5 (113:5a) Who is like vnto God our Lord that dwelleth on hygh aboue all
6 (113:5b) and yet humbleth him selfe to beholde the thinges that are in heauen and in earth
7 (113:6) He rayseth vp the simple out of the dust: and lyfteth vp the poore from the dounghyll
8 (113:7) For to make him sit with the princes: euen with the princes of his people
9 (113:8) He maketh the barren woman to kepe house: and to be a ioyful mother of children. Prayse ye the Lorde
114 1 When Israel came out of Egypt: & the house of Iacob from among the barbarous people
2 Iuda was his holynesse: and Israel his dominion
3 The sea sawe that and fled: Iordane was driuen backe
4 The mountaynes skypped lyke rammes: and the litle hilles like young lambes
5 What ayleth thee O thou sea that thou fleddest? and thou Iordane that thou wast driuen backe
6 Ye mountaines what [ayled] you that ye skipped lyke rammes: and ye litle hilles like young lambes
7 Tremble thou earth at the presence of the Lorde: at the presence of the Lorde of Iacob
8 Whiche turned the harde rocke into a standing water: and the flint stone into a springing well of waters
115 1 Geue praise not vnto vs O God, not vnto vs, but vnto thy name: for thy louing mercy, and for thy truethes sake
2 Wherfore shal the Heathen say: where is nowe their God
3 Truely our Lorde is in heauen: he hath done whatsoeuer pleased him
4 Their idols are siluer and gold: euen the workes of mens handes
5 They haue a mouth and speake not: they haue eyes and see not
6 They haue eares and heare not: they haue noses and smell not
7 They haue handes and handle not, they haue feete and walke not: and they vtter no sounde out of their throtes
8 They that make them are lyke vnto them: euery one that putteth his trust in them
9 But Israel trust thou in God: he is their ayde and their shielde
10 Ye house of Aaron trust you in God: he is their ayde and their shielde
11 Ye that feare God, trust ye in God: he is their ayde and their shielde
12 God hath ben myndfull of vs, he wyll blesse vs: he wyll blesse the house of Israel, he wyll blesse the house of Aaron
13 He wyll blesse those that feare God: the small with the great
14 God wyll encrease you more and more: both you and also your children
15 Ye are the blessed of God: which made heauen and earth
16 The heauen, the heauen [I say] is Gods: and he hath geuen the earth vnto the children of men
17 The dead prayse not thee O Lorde: neither all they that go downe into the [place] of scilence
18 But we wyll prayse the Lord: from this tyme foorth for euermore. Prayse ye the Lorde
116 1 I haue loued: because God hath hearde my voyce [and] my prayers
2 Because he hath enclined his eare vnto me: therfore I wyll call vpon hym as long as I lyue
3 The snares of death compassed me rounde about: and the paynes of hell toke holde on me. (116:4a) I founde anguishe and heauinesse
4 (116:4b) but I called vpon the name of God: [saying] O God, I beseche thee deliuer my soul
5 Gratious is God and ryghteous: our Lorde is mercifull
6 God gardeth the simple: I was brought to the extremitie, and he preserued me
7 Returne O my soule vnto thy rest: for God hath rewarded thee
8 For [thou O Lorde] hast deliuered my soule from death: myne eyes from teares, and my feete from fallyng
9 I wyll walke before the face of God: in the lande of the lyuyng
10 (116:10a) I beleued, therfore I wyll speake: I was sore afflicted
11 (116:10b) insomuch that I said in my rashnesse euery man is a lyer
12 (116:11) What rewarde shal I geue vnto God: for all the benefites that he hath done vnto me
13 (116:12) I wyll take the cuppe of saluation: and I wyll call vpon the name of God
14 (116:13) I wyll pay my vowes nowe vnto God: in the presence of all his people
15 (116:14) The death of his saintes: is precious in the eyes of God
16 (116:15) It is euen so O God, for I am thy seruaunt and the sonne of thy handemayde: thou hast loosed my bondes in sunder
17 (116:16) I wyll offer vnto thee the sacrifice of thankesgeuyng: and I wyll call vpon the name of God
18 (116:17a) I wyll pay my vowes vnto God in the sight of all his people
19 (116:17b) in the courtes of Gods house, euen in the myddest of thee O Hierusalem. Prayse ye the Lorde
117 1 O prayse God all ye heathen: prayse hym all ye nations
2 For his mercifull kyndnesse is euer more and more towarde vs: and the trueth of God endureth for euer. Prayse ye the Lorde
118 1 O confesse you [it] vnto God, for he is gratious: and his mercie endureth for euer
2 Let Israel nowe confesse: that his mercie endureth for euer
3 Let the house of Aaron nowe confesse: that his mercie endureth for euer
4 Let them nowe that feare God: confesse that his mercie endureth for euer
5 I called vpon the Lorde beyng in distresse: and the Lorde hath hearde me at large
6 God is with me: I wyll not feare what man can do vnto me
7 God is with me amongst them that ayde me: [therfore] I shall see [my desire] vpon them that hate me
8 It is better to trust in God: then to put any confidence in man
9 It is better to trust in God: then to put any confidence in princes
10 All nations compassed me rounde about: [but I trusted] in the name of God that I shoulde destroy them
11 They kept me in on euery syde, they kept me in I say on euery syde: [but I trusted] in the name of God that I shoulde destroy them
12 They swarmed about me lyke bees, and they be extinguished as the fire [made] of thornes: [for I trusted] in the name of God that I should destroy them
13 Thou hast thrust sore at me, that I might fall: but God dyd ayde m
14 The Lorde is my strength and my song: and he is become my saluation
15 The voyce of a ioyfull noyse & of saluation is in the dwellynges of the ryghteous: [saying] the ryght hande of God bryngeth mightie thynges to passe
16 The ryght hande of God is on hygh: the right hande of God bryngeth mightie thynges to passe
17 I shall not [as yet] dye, but I shal liue: and I wyll declare the workes of the Lorde
18 The Lorde hath greatly chastened me: but he hath not geuen me ouer vnto death
19 Open me the gates of ryghteousnesse, I wyll enter in by them: that I may geue thankes vnto the Lorde
20 This is the gate of God: the ryghteous shall enter in by it
21 I wyll thanke thee for that thou hast heard me: and art become my saluation
22 The same stone which the buylders refused: is become the head stone of the corner
23 This was the doyng of God: and it is marueylous in our eyes
24 This is the day whiche God hath made: we wyll reioyce and be glad in it
25 O God I pray thee nowe saue [vs]: O God I pray thee nowe geue [vs] prosperous successe
26 Blessed be he that commeth in the name of God: we do blesse you out of the house of God
27 It is the Lord God who hath geuen vs lyght: bynde a sacrifice with cordes vnto the hornes of the aulter
28 Thou art my Lorde, and I wyll confesse it vnto thee: thou art my Lorde and I wyll magnifie thee
29 O confesse you [it] vnto God, for he is gratious: and his mercie endureth for euer
119 1 Blessed are those that be perfect in the way: walkyng in the lawe of God

50 (119:2) That same is my comfort in my affliction: for thy worde maketh me to lyue
51 (119:3) The proude haue had me exceedingly in derision: yet I haue not shrinked from thy lawe
52 (119:4) [For] I called to remembraunce thy iudgementes from the begynnyng of the worlde O God: and so I comforted my selfe

59 (119:3) I haue considered mine owne wayes: and I haue turned my feete vnto thy testimonies
60 (119:4) I made haste and I made no delay: for to kepe thy commaundementes
61 (119:5) The vngodly haue tangled me in their snares: but I haue not forgotten thy lawe
62 (119:6) I wyll ryse at midnight to confesse me vnto thee: because of thy ryghteous iudgementes
63 (119:7) I am a companion of all them that feare thee: and kepe thy commaundementes
64 (119:8) The earth O God is replenished with thy louyng kyndnesse: O teache me thy statutes
65 (119:1) O God thou hast dealt gratiouslye with thy seruaunt: according vnto thy worde
66 (119:2) Learne me the good taste & cunning: for I haue beleued thy commaundementes
67 (119:3) Before I felt affliction I swarued out of the way: but nowe I kepe thy word
68 (119:4) Thou art good and beneficiall: teache me thy statutes
69 (119:5) The proude haue forged a false tale agaynst me: but I wyll kepe thy commaundementes with my whole heart
70 (119:6) Their heart is as fat as brawne: but my delyght hath ben in thy lawe
71 (119:7) It is good for me that I am brought into miserie: by that meanes I shall learne thy statutes
72 (119:8) The lawe of thy mouth is dearer vnto me: then thousandes of golde & siluer
73 (119:1) Thy handes haue made me and fashioned me: geue me vnderstanding, and I will learne thy comaundementes
74 (119:2) They that feare thee, shall see me, & reioyce: because I haue geuen earnest attendaunce vnto thy worde

84 (119:4) Howe many are the dayes of thy seruaunt? when wilt thou geue iudgement agaynst them that persecute me
85 (119:5) The proude haue digged pittes for me: which is [a thing] not [done] accordyng to thy lawe
86 (119:6) All thy commaundementes are the trueth it selfe: they wrongfully persecute me, O be thou my ayde
87 (119:7) They had almost made an ende of me vpon the earth: but I forsoke not thy commaundementes
88 (119:8) Make me to lyue accordyng to thy pietie: and I wyll kepe the testimonies of thy mouth

91 (119:3) [All thynges] continue this day accordyng to thine ordinaunce: for all thinges be thy seruauntes
92 (119:4) If my delight had not ben in thy lawe: I shoulde haue perished in myne affliction
93 (119:5) I wyll neuer forget thy commaundementes: for through them thou hast reuiued me
94 (119:6) I am thine, saue me: for I haue diligently studied thy commaundementes ouer
95 (119:7) When the vngodly layde wayte for me to destroy me: I endeuoured my selfe to vnderstande thy testimonies
96 (119:8) I see an ende of euery thing be it neuer so perfect: but thy commaundement is exceedyng large
97 (119:1) Howe greatly do I loue thy lawe? my study is all the day long in it
98 (119:2) Thou hast made me wyser then myne enemies through thy commaundementes: for they are euer with me
99 (119:3) I am able to geue better instruction then all they that were my teachers: for thy testimonies are my study

104 (119:8) Through thy commaundementes I get vnderstandyng: therfore I hate all wayes of falshood
105 (119:1) Thy worde is a candell vnto my feete: and a lyght vnto my pathes
106 (119:2) I haue made an oth (which I wil ratifie) for to kepe thy iuste iudgementes
107 (119:3) I am troubled aboue measure: quicken me O God accordyng vnto thy worde
108 (119:4) Let the freewyll offerynges of my mouth please thee O God: and teache me thy iudgementes
109 (119:5) My soule is alway in my hande: yet I do not forget thy lawe
110 (119:6) The vngodly haue layde a snare for me: but yet I swarued not from thy commaundementes
111 (119:7) I haue claymed thy testimonies as myne heritage for euer: for they are the very ioy of myne heart
112 (119:8) I haue applyed myne heart for to fulfyll thy statutes: euen to the worldes ende
113 (119:1) I hate hygh subtile deuices: and I do loue thy lawe
114 (119:2) Thou art my refuge and my shield: I geue earnest attendaunce vnto thy worde

116 (119:4) Strengthen me in thy worde and I shall lyue: and make me not ashamed of my hope
117 (119:5) Holde thou me vp and I shalbe safe: and I will loke gladly vpon thy statutes alwayes
118 (119:6) Thou hast troden vnder foote all them that go astray from thy statutes: for their crafty deuice is but falshood
119 (119:7) Thou hast dispatched out of the way all the vngodly of the earth lyke drosse: therfore I loue thy testimonies

122 (119:2) For thy owne goodnesse sake take thy seruaunt vnto thy protection: let not the proude oppresse me with wrong
123 (119:3) Myne eyes haue faynted with lokyng for thy saluation: and for the worde of thy [ryghteousnesse.
124 (119:4) Deale with thy seruaunt accordyng vnto thy owne louyng kyndnesse: and teache me thy statutes
125 (119:5) I am thy seruaunt, graunt me vnderstandyng: that I may knowe thy testimonies
126 (119:6) It is tyme for [me] to do for Gods cause: for they haue brought thy lawe almost to nothyng
127 (119:7) Therfore I loue thy commaundementes: aboue golde and precious stone
128 (119:8) Therfore I take all thy commaundementes euery one of them to be ryght: & I vtterly hate all wayes of falshood
129 (119:1) Thy testimonies [contayne] wonderfull thinges: therfore doth my soule kepe them
130 (119:2) The first entering of thy wordes will illuminate: geuyng vnderstanding euen vnto the simple

132 (119:4) Loke thou vpon me and be mercifull vnto me: as thou vsest to do vnto those that loue thy name
133 (119:5) Direct my steppes in thy worde: and so shall no wickednesse haue dominion ouer me
134 (119:6) Redeeme me from the fraudulent dealyng of men: and I wyll kepe thy commaundementes
135 (119:7) Make the lyght of thy countenaunce shyne vpon thy seruaunt: and teache me thy statutes

138 (119:2) Thou hast commaunded the iustice and the veritie of thy testimonies: [to be obserued] very strayghtly
139 (119:3) My zeale hath consumed me: because myne aduersaries haue forgotten thy wordes
140 (119:4) Thy worde is purified to the vttermost: and thy seruaunt loueth it
141 (119:5) I am small and of no reputation: [yet] I do not forget thy comaundementes
142 (119:6) Thy ryghteousnesse is an euerlastyng righteousnesse: & thy lawe is the trueth
143 (119:7) Trouble and griefe haue taken holde vpon me: yet thy commaundementes be my delyght
144 (119:8) The righteousnesse of thy testimonies is euerlastyng: make me to vnderstande [them] and I shall lyue

156 (119:4) Thy mercies be manifolde O God: make me to liue accordyng to thy iudgementes
157 (119:5) There be many that do persecute me and be myne aduersaries: yet I do not swarue from thy testimonies

159 (119:7) Beholde howe I loue thy commaundementes: quicken me O God accordyng to thy louyng kindnesse
160 (119:8) The beginning of thy word is trueth: and all the iudgementes of thy ryghteousnesse endure for euermore
161 (119:1) Princes haue persecuted me without a cause: but my heart hath stoode in awe of thy wordes
162 (119:2) I am as glad of thy worde: as he that fyndeth a great bootie
163 (119:3) That which is false I hate and abhorre: but thy lawe I do loue
