Psalms 92:1-119:176 It is a good thinge to geue thankes vnto the LORDE, and to synge prayses vnto yi name, o most hyest.

Coverdale⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ It is a good thinge to geue thankes vnto the LORDE, and to synge prayses vnto yi name, o most hyest. ² To tell of thy louynge kyndnesse early in the mornynge, and of thy trueth in the night season. ³ Vpon an instrumet of ten strynges, vpon the lute and with a songe vpon the harpe. ⁴ For thou LORDE hast made me glad thorow thy workes, and I wil reioyse ouer the operacion of thy hondes. ⁵ O LORDE, how glorious are thy workes, thy thoughtes are very depe. ⁶ An vnwyse man wil not knowe this, & a foole wil not vnderstode it. ⁷ That the vngodly are grene as the grasse, and that all the workes of wickednes do florish, to be destroyed for euer. ⁸ But thou LORDE o most hyest, abydest worlde without ende. ⁹ For lo, thy enemies (o LORDE) lo, thy enemies shal perishe, and all the workers of wickednes shalbe scatred abrode. ¹⁰ But my horne shalbe exalted like the horne of an Vnicorne, & shal be anoynted with fresh oyle. ¹¹ Myne eye also shal se his lust of myne enemies, ¹² & myne eare shall heare his desyre of the wicked yt ryse vp agaynst me. ¹³ The rightuous shal florish like a palme tre, and growe like a Cedre of Libanus. ¹⁴ Soch as be planted in the house of the LORDE,be frutefull, plenteous & grene. ¹⁵ That they maye shewe, how true the LORDE my stregth is, and that there is no vnrightuousnesse in him. ⁹³ ¹ The LORDE is kynge, and hath put on glorious apparell, the LORDE hath put on his apparell, & gyrded himself with stregth: ² he hath made the rounde worlde so sure, that it can not be moued. ³ From that tyme forth hath yi seate bene prepared, thou art from euerlastinge. ⁴ The floudes aryse (o LORDE) the floudes lift vp their noyse, ye floudes lift vp their wawes. ⁵ The wawes of the see are mightie, & rage horribly: but yet the LORDE that dwelleth on hye, is mightier. Thy testimonies (o LORDE) are very sure, holynesse becommeth thyne house for euer. ⁹⁴ ¹ O Lorde God, to whom vengeaunce belogeth: thou God to whom vengeaunce belongeth, shewe thy self. ² Arise thou iudge of the worlde, & rewarde the proude after their deseruynge. ³ LORDE, how longe shal the vngodly, how longe shal the vngodly tryumphe? ⁴ How longe shal all wicked doers speake so di?daynedly, and make soch proude boastynge? ⁵ They smyte downe thy people (o LORDE) and trouble thine heretage. ⁶ They murthur the widdowe and the straunger, and put the fatherlesse to death. ⁷ And yet they saie: Tush, the LORDE seyth not, the God of Iacob regardeth it not. ⁸ Take hede, ye vnwise amonge the people: o ye fooles, when wil ye vnderstonde? ⁹ He that planted the eare, shal he not heare? he that made the eye, shal not he se? ¹⁰ He that nurtureth the Heithen, and teacheth a man knowlege, shal not he punysh? ¹¹ The LORDE knoweth the thoughtes of men, that they are but vayne. ¹² Blessed is the ma, whom thou lernest (o LORDE) and teachest him in thy lawe. ¹³ That thou mayest geue him pacience in tyme of aduersite, vntill the pytte be dygged vp for the vngodly. ¹⁴ For the LORDE wil not fayle his people, nether wil he forsake his inheritaunce. ¹⁵ And why? iudgment shalbe turned agayne vnto rightuousnesse, and all soch as be true of hert shal folowe it. ¹⁶ Who ryseth vp with me agaynst the wicked? who taketh my parte agaynst the euell doers? ¹⁷ Yf the LORDE had not helped me, my soule had allmost bene put to sylence. ¹⁸ When I sayde: my fote hath slipped, thy mercy (o LORDE) helde me vp. ¹⁹ In ye multitude of the sorowes that I had in my herte, thy comfortes haue refreshed my soule. ²⁰ Wilt thou haue eny thinge to do with the stole of wickednesse, which ymagineth myschefe in the lawe? ²¹ They gather them together agaynst the soule of the rightuous, & condemne the innocent bloude. ²² But the LORDE is my refuge, my God is the stregth of my confidece. ²³ He shal recompence the their wickednesse, and destroye them in their owne malice: yee the LORDE oure God shal destroye them. ⁹⁵ ¹ O come, let vs prayse the LORDE, let vs hertely reioyse in the strength of oure saluacion. ² Let vs come before his presence with thakesgeuynge, & shewe oure self glad in him wt psalmes. ³ For the LORDE is a greate God, and a greate kynge aboue all goddes. ⁴ In his honde are all ye corners of the earth, and the strength of the hilles is his also. ⁵ The see is his, for he made it, and his hondes prepared the drie lode. ⁶ O come, let vs worshipe and bowe downe oure selues: Let vs knele before the LORDE oure maker. ⁷ For he is oure God: as for vs, we are the people of his pasture, and the shepe of his hodes. ⁸ Todaye yf ye wil heare his voyce, harde not youre hertes, as whe ye prouoked in tyme of temptacion in the wildernes. ⁹ Where yor fathers tepted me, proued me, and sawe my workes. ¹⁰ XL. yeares longe was I greued with that generacion, & sayde: they euer erre in their hertes, they verely haue not knowne my wayes. ¹¹ Therfore I sware vnto the in my wrath, that they shulde not enter in to my rest. ⁹⁶ ¹ O synge vnto the LORDE a new songe, synge vnto the LORDE all the whole earth. ² Synge vnto ye LORDE, & prayse his name, be tellynge of his saluacion from daye to daye. ³ Declare his honoure amonge the Heithe, and his wonders amonge all people. ⁴ For ye LORDE is greate, and can not worthely be praysed: he is more to be feared then all goddes. ⁵ As for all ye goddes of the Heithe, they be but Idols, but it is the LORDE that made the heaues. ⁶ Thankesgeuynge and worshipe are before him, power and honoure are in his Sanctuary. ⁷ Ascrybe vnto the LORDE (o ye kinredes of the Heithen) ascrybe vnto the LORDE worshipe and strength. ⁸ Ascrybe vnto the LORDE the honoure of his name, brynge presentes, and come in to his courte. ⁹ O worshipe the LORDE in the beutye of holynesse, let the whole earth stonde in awe of him. ¹⁰ Tell it out amonge the Heithe, that the LORDE is kynge: and that it is he which hath made the rounde worlde so fast, that it cannot be moued, and how that he shal iudge the people rightuously. ¹¹ Let the heaues reioyse, and let the earth be glad: let the see make a noyse, yee & all that therin is. ¹² Let the felde be ioyfull and all that is in it, let all the trees of the wodd leape for ioye. ¹³ Before the LORDE, for he commeth: for he cometh to iudge the earth: yee with rightuousnesse shal he iudge the worlde, and ye people with his trueth. ⁹⁷ ¹ The LORDE is kynge, the earth maye be glad therof: yee the multitude of the Iles maie be glad therof. ² Cloudes and darcknesse are rounde aboute him, rightuousnesse and iudgment are the habitacion of his seate. ³ There goeth a fyre before him, to burne vp his enemies on euery syde. ⁴ His lightenynges geue shyne vnto the worlde, the earth seyth it & is afraied. ⁵ The hilles melt like wax at the presence of ye LORDE, at the presence of the LORDE of the whole earth. ⁶ The very heauens declare his rightuousnes, & all people se his glory. ⁷ Cofounded be all they that worshipe ymages, and delite in their Idols: worshipe him all ye goddes. ⁸ Sion heareh of it and reioyseth: yee all ye doughters of Iuda are glad because of thy iudgmentes, o LORDE. ⁹ For thou LORDE art the most hyest ouer all the earth, thou art exalted farre aboue all goddes. ¹⁰ O ye that loue the LORDE, se that ye hate the thinge which is euell: the LORDE preserueth the soules of his sayntes, he shal delyuer the from the honde of the vngodly. ¹¹ There is spronge vp a light for the rightuous, and a ioyfull gladnesse for soch as be true herted. ¹² Reioyse therfore in the LORDE, ye rightuous: and geue thankes for a remembraunce of his holynesse. ⁹⁸ ¹ O synge vnto the LORDE a new songe, for he hath done maruelous thinges. ² With his owne right honde and with his holy arme hath he gotten the victory. ³ The LORDE hath declared his sauynge health, and his rightuousnes hath he openly shewed in the sight of the Heithe. ⁴ He hath remembred his mercy and trueth towarde the house of Israel: so that all the endes of the worlde se the sauynge health of oure God. ⁵ Shewe youre self ioyfull vnto the LORDE all ye londes, synge, reioyse and geue thankes. ⁶ Prayse the LORDE vpon the harpe, synge to the harpe with a psalme of thankesgeuynge. ⁷ With trompettes also & shawmes: O shewe youre selues ioyfull before the LORDE the kynge. ⁸ Let the see make a noyse and all yt therin is, yee the whole worlde & all that dwell therin. ⁹ Let the floudes clappe their hondes, and let all the hilles be ioyfull together. Before the LORDE, for he is come to iudge the earth. Yee with rightuousnes shall he iudge the worlde, and the people with equite. ⁹⁹ ¹ The LORDE is kynge, be the people neuer so vnpacient: he sytteth vpon the Cherubins, be the earth neuer so vnquiete. ² The LORDE is greate in Sion, & hye aboue all people. ³ O let men geue thakes vnto thy greate & wonderful name, for it is holy. ⁴ The kynges power loueth iudgment, thou preparest equite, thou executest iudgmet & rightuousnes in Iacob. ⁵ O magnifie the LORDE or God, fall downe before his fote stole, for he his holy. ⁶ Moses & Aaron amonge his prestes, & Samuel amonge soch as call vpo his name: these called vpon the LORDE, & he herde the. ⁷ He spake vnto the out of the cloudy piler, for they kepte his testimonies, & the lawe that he gaue them. ⁸ Thou herdest the (o LORDE or God) thou forgauest the o God, & punyshedst their owne invencions. ⁹ O magnifie the LORDE oure God, and worshipe him vpo his holy hill, for the LORDE oure God is holy. ¹⁰⁰ ¹ O be ioyfull in God (all ye lodes) serue the LORDE wt gladnes, come before his presence wt ioye. ² Be ye sure, yt the LORDE he is God: ³ It is he yt hath made vs, & not we oure selues: we are but his people, & the shepe of his pasture. ⁴ go youre waye in to his gates the with thankesgeuynge, & in to his courtes wt prayse: be thakfull vnto him, & speake good of his name. ⁵ For the LORDE is gracious, his mercy is euerlastinge, and his treuth endureth from generacion to generacion. ¹⁰¹ ¹ My songe shalbe of mercy and iudgment, yee vnto the (o LORDE) wil I synge. ² O let me haue vnderstondinge in the waye of godlynesse, vntill the tyme that thou come vnto me: & so shal I walke in my house wt an innocent herte. ³ I wil take no wicked thinge in honde, I hate the synne of vnfaithfulnesse, it shal not cleue vnto me. ⁴ A frowarde herte shal departe fro me, I wil not knowe a wicked personne. ⁵ Who so preuely slaundreth his neghboure, him wil I destroye: Who so hath a proude loke & an hye stomacke, I maye not awaye with him. ⁶ Myne eyes shal loke for soch as be faithfull in the londe, yt they maye dwell with me: and who so ledeth a godly life, shalbe my seruaunt. ⁷ There shall no disceatfull personne dwell in my house, he that telleth lyes shal not tary in my sight. ⁸ I shal soone destroye all the vngodly of the londe, that all wicked doers maye be roted out of the cite of the LORDE. ¹⁰² ¹ Heare my prayer (o LORDE) and let my criege come vnto the. ² Hyde not thy face fro me in the tyme of my trouble: enclyne thine eares vnto me when I call, O heare me, and that right soone. ³ For my dayes are consumed awaye like smoke, & my bones are brent vp as it were a fyre brande. ⁴ My hert is smytte downe and wythered like grasse, so that I forget to eate my bred. ⁵ For the voyce of my gronynge, my bone wil scarse cleue to my flesh. ⁶ I am become like a Pellicane in the wildernes, and like an Oule in a broken wall. ⁷ I wake, and am euen as it were a sparow sittinge alone vpon the house toppe. ⁸ Myne enemies reuyle me all the daye longe, they laugh me to scorne, and are sworne together against me. ⁹ I eate ashes with my bred, and mengle my drynke with wepynge. ¹⁰ And that because of ye indignacion and wrath, for thou hast taken me vp, and cast me awaye. ¹¹ My dayes are gone like a shadowe, and I am wythered like grasse. ¹² But thou (o LORDE) endurest for euer, and thy remembraunce thorow out all generacions. ¹³ Arise therfore and haue mercy vpon Sion, for it is tyme to haue mercy vpon her, yee the tyme is come. ¹⁴ And why? thy seruauntes haue a loue to hir stones, & it pitieth them to se her in the dust. ¹⁵ The Heithen shal feare thy name (o LORDE) and all the kynges of the earth thy maiesty. ¹⁶ For the LORDE shal buylde vp Sion, and shal apeare in his glory. ¹⁷ He turneth him vnto the prayer of the poore destitute, and despyseth not their desyre. ¹⁸ This shalbe written for those yt come after, that the people which shalbe borne, maye prayse the LORDE. ¹⁹ For He loketh downe from his Sanctuary, out of the heauen doth the LORDE beholde the earth. ²⁰ That he maye heare the mournynges of soch as be in captiuyte, and delyuer the children of death. ²¹ That they maie preach the name of the LORDE in Sion, and his worshipe at Ierusalem. ²² When the people are gathered together, and the kyngdomes also to serue ye LORDE. ²³ He hath brought downe my strength in my iourney, and shortened my dayes. ²⁴ Yet wil I saye: O my God, take me not awaye in ye myddest of myne age: as for thy yeares, they endure thorow out all generacions. ²⁵ Thou LORDE in the begynnynge hast layed ye foundacion of the earth, and the heauens are the workes of thy hondes. ²⁶ They shal perishe, but thou shalt endure: they all shall wexe olde as doth a garment, ²⁷ & as a vesture shalt thou chaunge the, and they shalbe chaunged. But thou art the same, and thy yeares shal not fayle. ²⁸ The children of thy seruauntes shall contynue, & their sede shal prospere in yi sight. ¹⁰³ ¹ Prayse the LORDE (o my soule) & all that is within me prayse his holy name. ² Prayse the LORDE o my soule, & forget not all his benefites. ³ Which forgeueth all thy synnes, and healeth all thy infirmities. ⁴ Which saueth thy life from destruccion, and crowneth the with mercy & louynge kyndnesse. ⁵ Which satisfieth thy desyre with good thinges, makynge the yonge and lusty as an Aegle. ⁶ The LORDE executeth rightuousnesse and iudgment, for all them yt suffre wronge. ⁷ He shewed his wayes vnto Moses, and his workes vnto the children of Israel. ⁸ The LORDE is full of compassion and mercy, longe sufferinge, and of greate goodnesse. ⁹ He wil not allwaye be chydinge, nether wil he kepe his anger for euer. ¹⁰ He hath not dealt with vs after oure synnes, ner rewarded vs acordinge to oure wickednesses. ¹¹ For loke how hye the heaue is in comparison of the earth, so greate is his mercy also towarde them that feare him. ¹² Loke how wyde the east is from the west, so farre hath he set oure synnes from vs. ¹³ Yee like as a father pitieth his owne children, euen so is the LORDE mercifull vnto the that feare him. ¹⁴ For he knoweth wherof we be made, he remembreth that we are but dust. ¹⁵ That a man in his tyme is but as is grasse, & florisheth as a floure of the felde. ¹⁶ For as soone as the wynde goeth ouer it, it gone, and the place therof knoweth it nomore. ¹⁷ But the mercifull goodnesse of ye LORDE endureth for euer and euer, vpon them yt feare him, and his rightuousnesse vpon their childers children. ¹⁸ Soch as kepe his couenaunt, and thinke vpon his commaundementes to do them. ¹⁹ The LORDE hath prepared his seate in heaue, and his kyngdome ruleth ouer all. ²⁰ O prayse the LORDE ye angels of his, ye that be mightie instregth, fulfillinge his commaundement, that me maye heare the voyce of his wordes. ²¹ O prayse the LORDE all ye his hoostes, ye seruauntes of his, that do his pleasure. ²² O speake good of the LORDE all ye workes of his, in euery place of his dominion: prayse thou the LORDE, o my soule. ¹⁰⁴ ¹ Prayse the LORDE o my soule: O LORDE my God, thou art become exceadinge glorious, thou art clothed with maiesty and honoure. ² Thou deckest thy self with light, as it were wt a garment, thou spredest out the heauen like a curtayne. ³ Thou voltest it aboue with waters, thou makest the cloudes thy charet, and goest vpon the wynges of the wynde. ⁴ Thou makest thine angels spretes, and thy ministers flammes of fyre. ⁵ Thou hast layed ye earth vpon hir foundacion, that it neuer moueth at eny tyme. ⁶ Thou couerest it with the depe like as with a garmet, so that the waters stonde aboue the hilles. ⁷ But at thy rebuke they fle, at the voyce of thy thonder they are afrayed. ⁸ Then are the hilles sene alofte, & the valleys beneth in their place which thou hast appoynted for the. ⁹ Thou hast set them their boundes, which they maie not passe, that they turne not agayne to couer ye earth. ¹⁰ Thou causest the welles to sprynge vp amonge the valleys, and the waters runne amonge ye hilles. ¹¹ That all the beastes of the felde maye haue drynke, & that the wylde asses maye quench their thyrste. ¹² Aboue vpon the hilles haue the foules of the ayre their habitacion, and synge amonge the braunches. ¹³ Thou watrest the hylles from aboue, the erth is fylled with ye frutes of thy workes. ¹⁴ Thou bryngest forth grasse for the catell, and grene herbe for the seruyce of men. ¹⁵ Thou bryngest fode out of the earth: wyne to make glad ye herte of ma, oyle to make him a chearfull countenaunce, & bred to strength mans herte. ¹⁶ The trees of the LORDE are full of sappe, euen the trees of Libanus which he hath planted. ¹⁷ There make the byrdes their nestes, and the fyrre trees are a dwellinge for the storcke. ¹⁸ The hilles are a refuge for the wylde goates, and so are the stony rockes for ye conyes. ¹⁹ Thou hast appoynted the Moone for certayne seasons, the Sonne knoweth his goinge downe. ²⁰ Thou makest darcknesse, that it maye be night, wherin all the beastes of the forest do moue. ²¹ Yee and the yonge lyons which roare after the praye, and seke their meate at God. ²² But when the Sonne ariseth, they get them awaye together, and lye them downe in their dennes. ²³ Then goeth man forth to his worke, and to till his londe vntill the euenynge. ²⁴ O LORDE, how manifolde are thy workes, right wysely hast thou made the all: yee the earth is full of thy riches. ²⁵ So is this greate and wyde see also, wherin are thinges crepinge innumerable, both small and greate beastes. ²⁶ There go the shippes ouer, and there is that Leuiathan, whom thou hast made, to take his pastyme therin. ²⁷ They wayte all vpo the, that thou mayest geue them meate in due season. ²⁸ Whe thou geuest it them, they gather it: whe thou openest thine honde, they are fylled with good. ²⁹ But when thou hydest thy face, they are soroufull: yf thou takest awaye their breth, they dye, & are turned agayne to their dust. ³⁰ Agayne, when thou lattest thy breth go forth, they are made, and so thou renuest the face of the earth. ³¹ The glorious magesty of the LORDE endureth for euer, and the LORDE reioyseth in his workes. ³² The earth trebleth at the loke of him, he doth but touch ye hilles and they smoke. ³³ I will synge vnto the LORDE as longe as I lyue, I wil prayse my God whyle I haue my beinge. ³⁴ O that my wordes might please him, for my ioye is in the LORDE. ³⁵ As for synners, they shalbe cosumed out of the earth, and the vngodly shal come to an ende: but prayse thou the LORDE, o my soule. Halleluya. ¹⁰⁵ ¹ O geue thankes vnto the LORDE, and call vpon his name: tell the people what thinges he hath done. ² O let youre songes be of him: prayse him, and let youre talkynge be of all his wonderous workes. ³ Geue his holy name a good reporte, let their hertes reioyse that seke the LORDE. ⁴ Seke the LORDE, and his strength, seke his face euermore. ⁵ Remembre the maruelous workes that he hath done, his wonders and the iudgmentes of his mouth. ⁶ O ye sede of Abraham his seruaunt, ye children of Iacob his chosen. ⁷ He is the LORDE oure God, whose punyshmentes are thorow out all the worlde. ⁸ He is allwaye myndfull of his couenaunt, and promyse that he made to a thousande generacions. ⁹ Yee the couenaunt that he made wt Abraham, and the ooth that he swore vnto Isaac. ¹⁰ And apoynted the same vnto Iacob for a lawe, and to Israel for an euerlastinge testament. ¹¹ Sayenge: vnto the wil I geue the londe of Canaan, the lott of youre heretage. ¹² When there was yet but a fewe of them, and they straungers therin. ¹³ What tyme as they wente from one nacion to another, from one kyngdome to another. ¹⁴ He suffred no man to hurte them, but reproued euen kynges for their sakes. ¹⁵ Touch not myne anoynted, do my prophetes no harme. ¹⁶ Morouer he called for a derth vpon the lode, and destroyed all the prouysion of bred. ¹⁷ But he had sent a man before them, euen Ioseph which was solde to be a bonde seruaunt. ¹⁸ They hurte his fete in the stockes, the yron pearsed his herte. ¹⁹ Vntill the tyme that his worde came, and till the worde of ye LORDE had tried him. ²⁰ Then sent the kinge and caused him be delyuered, the prynce of the people bad let him go. ²¹ He made him lorde of his house, & ruler of all his substaunce. ²² That he might enfourme his prynces after his wil, and teach his Senatours wysdome. ²³ Israel also came in to Egipte, and Iacob was a straunger in the lode of Ham. ²⁴ But he increased his people exceadingly, and made them stronger then their enemies. ²⁵ Whose hert turned, so that they hated his people, and dealt vntruly with his seruauntes. ²⁶ Then sent he Moses his seruaunt, and Aaron whom he had chosen. ²⁷ These dyd his tokens amoge them, and wonders in the londe of Ham. ²⁸ He sent darcknesse and it was darcke, for they were not obedient vnto his worde. ²⁹ He turned their waters in to bloude, and slewe their fishe. ³⁰ Their londe brought forth frogges, yee euen in their kynges chambers. ³¹ He spake the worde, & their came all maner of flies & lise in all their quarters. ³² He gaue them hale stones for rayne, and flammes of fyre in their lode. ³³ He smote their vynyardes & fige trees, and destroyed the trees that were in their coastes. ³⁴ He spake ye worde, and their came greshoppers & catirpillers innumerable. ³⁵ These ate vp all the grasse in their lode, and deuoured the frutes of their groude. ³⁶ He smote all ye first borne in their lode, euen the chefe of all their substaunce. ³⁷ He brought them forth wt syluer & golde, there was not one feble personne amoge their trybes. ³⁸ Egipte was glad of their departinge, for they were afraied of the. ³⁹ e spred out a cloude to be a couerynge, and fyre to geue light in the night season. ⁴⁰ At their desyre, there came quales, and he fylled them with the bred of heaue. ⁴¹ He opened the rocke of stone, & the waters flowed out: so that ryuers ranne in the wildernesse. ⁴² For why, he remembred his holy promyse which he had made vnto Abraham his seruaunt. ⁴³ Thus he brought forth his people with ioye, and his chosen with gladnesse. ⁴⁴ And gaue them the lodes of the Heithe, where they toke the labours of the people in possession. ⁴⁵ That they might kepe his statutes, and obserue his lawes. Halleluya. Halleluya. ¹⁰⁶ ¹ O geue thankes vnto the LORDE, for he is gracious, and his mercy endureth for euer. ² Who can expresse ye noble actes of the LORDE, or shewe forth all his prayse? ³ Blessed are they that allwaye kepe iudgment, and do rightuousnes. ⁴ Remembre vs (o LORDE) acordinge to the fauoure that thou bearest vnto thy people: o vyset vs wt thy sauinge health. ⁵ That we might se the pleasure of thy chosen, that we might reioyse in the gladnesse of thy people, and geue thankes with thine enheritaunce. ⁶ We haue synned with oure fathers, we haue done amysse, we haue dealt wickedly. ⁷ Oure fathers regarded not thy wonders in Egipte, they kepte not thy greate goodnesse in remebraunce: but were dishobediet at the see, eue at the reed see. ⁸ Neuertheles, he helped the for his names sake, that he might make his power to be knowne. ⁹ He rebuked the reed see, and it was dried vp: so he led the thorow the depe as in a wildernesse. ¹⁰ Thus he saued them from the honde of the hater, & delyuered them from the honde of the enemie. ¹¹ As for those yt troubled them, the waters ouerwhelmed the, there was not one of the left. ¹² Then beleued they in his worde, and songe prayse vnto him. ¹³ But within a whyle they forgat his workes, & wolde not abyde his councell. ¹⁴ A lust came vpo them in the wildernesse, so that they tempted God in the deserte. ¹⁵ Yet he gaue them their desyre, and sent the ynough at their willes. ¹⁶ They angred Moses in the tetes, and Aaron the saynte of the LORDE. ¹⁷ So the earth opened & swalowed vp Dathan, and couered the congregacio of Abiram. ¹⁸ The fyre was kyndled in their company, the flame brent vp the vngodly. ¹⁹ They made a calfe in Horeb, and worshipped the molte ymage. ²⁰ Thus they turned his glory into the similitude of a calfe, yt eateth haye. ²¹ They forgat God their Sauior, which had done so greate thinges in Egipte. ²² Wonderous workes in the londe of Ham, and fearfull thinges in the reed see. ²³ So he sayde he wolde haue destroyed them, had not Moses his chosen stonde before him in yt gappe: to turne awaie his wrothfull indignacion, lest he shulde destroye the. ²⁴ Yee they thought scorne of yt pleasaunt londe, and gaue no credence vnto his worde. ²⁵ But murmured in their tentes, and herkened not vnto the voyce of the LORDE. ²⁶ Then lift he vp his honde agaynst them, to ouerthrowe them in the wildernes. ²⁷ To cast out their sede amonge the nacions, and to scater them in the londes. ²⁸ They ioyned them selues vnto Baal Peor, and ate the offeringes of the deed. ²⁹ Thus they prouoked him vnto anger with their owne invecions, and the plage was greate amonge them. ³⁰ Then stode vp Phineas and excuted iustice, & so the plage ceased. ³¹ And that was counted vnto him for rightuousnesse, amonge all posterites for euermore. ³² They angerd him also at the waters of strife, so that Moses was punyshed for their sakes. ³³ Because they prouoked his sprete, and he tolde the planely with his lippes. ³⁴ Nether destroyed they the Heithen, as the LORDE commaunded them. ³⁵ But were mengled amonge the Heithen, and lerned their workes. ³⁶ In so moch that they worshipped their ymages, which turned to their owne decaye. ³⁷ Yee they offred their sonnes & their doughters vnto deuels. ³⁸ And shed the innocent bloude of their sonnes and of their doughters, whom they offred vnto the ymages of Canaan, so that the londe was defyled with bloude. ³⁹ Thus were they stayned wt their owne workes, and wente a whoringe with their owne invencions. ⁴⁰ Therfore was the wrath of the LORDE kyndled agaynst his people, in so moch that he abhorred his owne enheritaunce. ⁴¹ And gaue them ouer in to the honde of the Heithe, and they that hated them, were lordes ouer them. ⁴² Their enemies oppressed the, and had them in subieccion. ⁴³ Many a tyme dyd he delyuer them, but they prouoked him with their owne invecions, and were brought downe for their wickednesse. ⁴⁴ Neuerthelesse whe he sawe their aduersite, he herde their complaynte. ⁴⁵ He thought vpo his couenaunt, and pitied the, acordinge vnto the multitude of his mercies. ⁴⁶ Yee he made all those yt had led them awaye captiue, to pitie them. ⁴⁷ Delyuer vs (o LORDE oure God) & gather vs from amoge the Heithen: that we maye geue thankes to thy holy name, & make oure boast of thy prayse. ⁴⁸ Blessed be the LORDE God of Israel from euerlastinge and worlde without ende, and let all people saye: Amen, Amen. Halleluya. ¹⁰⁷ ¹ O geue thankes vnto the LORDE, for he is gracious, and his mercy endureth for euer. ² Let them geue thakes whom the LORDE hath redemed, & delyuered from the hande of the enemie. ³ And gathered the out of the londes, fro the east, fro the west, fro the north & from the south. ⁴ They wente astraye in the wildernesse in an vntroden waye, & founde no cite to dwell in. ⁵ Hongrie & thirstie, & their soule faynted in the. ⁶ So they cried vnto the LORDE in their trouble, & he delyuered the from their distresse. ⁷ He led the forth by ye right waie, yt they might go to ye cite where they dwelt. ⁸ O that me wolde prayse the goodnesse of the LORDE, & the wonders that he doth for the childre of me. ⁹ For he satisfied the emptie soule, & fylled the hongrie soule wt good. ¹⁰ Soch as sat in darcknesse and in the shadowe of death, beynge fast bounde in misery & yron. ¹¹ Because they were not obediet to the comaundementes of God, but lightly regarded the councell of the most highest. ¹² Their herte was vexed with labor, they fell downe, & there was none to helpe them. ¹³ So they cried vnto the LORDE in their trouble, & he delyuered them out of their distresse. ¹⁴ He brought the out of darcknesse & out of the shadowe of death, & brake their bondes in sonder. ¹⁵ O that men wolde prayse the goodnesse of the LORDE, & the woders that he doth for the childre of men. ¹⁶ For he hath broken the gates of brasse, & smitte the barres of yron in sonder. ¹⁷ Foolish me were plaged for their offence, & because of their wickednesse. ¹⁸ Their soule abhorred all maner of meate, they were eue harde at deathes dore. ¹⁹ So they cried vnto the LORDE in their trouble, & he delyuered the out of their distresse. ²⁰ He sent his worde & healed the, & saued the from destruccion. ²¹ O that men wolde prayse the goodnesse of the LORDE, & the wonders that he doth for the children of men. ²² That they wolde offre vnto him the sacrifice of thankesgeuynge, and tell out his workes with gladnes. ²³ They that go downe to the see in shippes, & occupie their busynesse in greate waters. ²⁴ These men se the workes of the LORDE, & his wonders in the depe. ²⁵ For at his worde, the stormy wynde aryseth, and lifteth vp the wawes therof. ²⁶ They are caried vp to the heauen, & downe agayne to the depe, their soule melteth awaye in the trouble. ²⁷ They rele to and fro, they stacker like a droncken man, and are at their wittes ende. ²⁸ So they crie vnto the LORDE in their trouble, & he delyuereth the out of their distresse. ²⁹ He maketh the storme to ceasse, so that the wawes are still. ³⁰ The are they glad because they be at rest, & so he bryngeth them vnto the hauen where they wolde be. ³¹ O that men wolde prayse the goodnes of the LORDE, and the wonders that he doth for the children of men. ³² That they wolde exalte him in the cogregacion of the people, & loaue him in the seate of the elders. ³³ Which turneth the floudes in to drie londe, and drieth vp the water sprynges. ³⁴ A frutefull londe maketh he baren, for the wickednesse of them that dwell therin. ³⁵ Agayne, he maketh the wildernes a stondinge water, and water sprynges of a drye grounde. ³⁶ There he setteth the hongrie, that they maye buylde them a cite to dwell in. ³⁷ That they maye sowe their groude, plante vynyaydes, to yelde them frutes of increase. ³⁸ He blesseth them, so that they multiplie exceadingly, and suffreth not their catell to decrease. ³⁹ Whe they are minished & brought lowe thorow oppressio, thorow eny plage or trouble. ⁴⁰ Though he suffre the to be euell intreated thorow tyrauntes, or let them wandre out of the waye in the wildernesse: ⁴¹ Yet helpeth he the poore out of misery (at the last) and maketh him an housholde like a flocke of shepe. ⁴² The rightuous wil cosidre this and reioyse, the mouth of all wickednesse shall be stopped. ⁴³ Who so is wyse, and pondreth these thinges well, shall vnderstonde the louynge kyndnesses of the LORDE. ¹⁰⁸ ¹ O God, my hert is ready to synge, & to geue prayse. ² Awake (o my glory) awake lute & harpe, I my selfe will awake right early. ³ I wil geue thakes vnto the (o LORDE) amonge the people, I wil synge prayses vnto the amonge the Heithe. ⁴ For the greatnesse of thy mercy is higher then the heauens, and thy faithfulnesse reacheth vnto the cloudes. ⁵ Set vp thy self (o God) aboue the heaues, & thy glory aboue all the earth. ⁶ That thy beloued maye be delyuered: helpe then with thy right hande, & heare me. ⁷ God hath spoken in his Sanctuary (which thinge reioyseth me.) I will deuyde Sichem, and mete out the valley of Suchoth. ⁸ Galaad is myne, Manasses is myne, Ephraim is the stregth of my heade, ⁹ Iuda is my captaine. Moab is my wash potte, ouer Edom wil I stretch out my shue, Philistea shal be glad of me. ¹⁰ Who wil lede me in to the stronge cite? Who wil brynge me in to Edom? ¹¹ Shalt not thou do it (o God) which hast cast vs out: thou God, yt wentest not forth with oure hoostes? ¹² O be thou or helpe in trouble, for vayne is the helpe of man. ¹³ Thorow God we shall do greate actes, for it is he yt shal treade downe oure enemies. ¹⁰⁹ ¹ Holde not thy toge, o God of my prayse. For the mouth of the vngodly, yee and the mouth of the disceatfull is opened vpon me, ² and speake agaynst me with false toges. They compase me aboute with wordes of hatred, & fight agaynst me without a cause. ³ For the loue that I had vnto them, they take now my contrary parte, but I geue my self vnto prayer. ⁴ Thus they rewarde me euell for good, & hatred for my good will. ⁵ Set an vngodly man to be ruler ouer him, & let Satan stonde at his right hande. ⁶ When sentence is geuen vpon him, let him be codempned, and let his prayer be turned in to synne. ⁷ Let his dayes be fewe, and his bishopricke another take. ⁸ Let his children be fatherlesse, & his wife a wyddowe. ⁹ Let his children be vagabundes, and begg their bred: let them seke it, as they that be destroyed. ¹⁰ Let the extorcioner cosume all that he hath, and let straungers spoyle his laboure. ¹¹ Let there be no man to petie, ner to haue compassion vpon his fatherlesse children. ¹² Let his ende be destruccion, and in the nexte generacion let his name be clene put out. ¹³ Let the wickednesse of his fathers be had in remembraunce in the sight of the LORDE, and let not the synne of his mother be done awaye. ¹⁴ Let them be allwaye before the LORDE, but as for the memoriall of them selues, let it perish from out of the earth. ¹⁵ And that because his mynde was not to do good, but persecuted the poore helplesse, and him that was vexed at the herte, to slaye him. ¹⁶ His delite was in cursynge, and therfore shall it happe vnto him: he loued not blessynge, and that shall be farre fro him. ¹⁷ He clothed him self with cursynge like as with a rayment: yee it wente in to his bowels like water, and like oyle in to his bones. ¹⁸ Let it be vnto him as the cloke that he hath vpon him, and as the gyrdle that he is gyrded withall. ¹⁹ Let it thus happen from the LORDE vnto myne enemies, and to those that speake euell agaynst my soule. ²⁰ But deale thou with me (o LORDE God) acordinge vnto thy name, for swete is thy mercy. ²¹ O delyuer me, for I am helplesse & poore, & my herte is wounded within me, ²² I go hence like ye shadowe that departeth, and am dryuen awaye as ye greshoppers. ²³ My knees are weake thorow fastinge, my flesh is dried vp for want of fatnesse. ²⁴ I am become a rebuke vnto them, they loke vpo me and shake their heades. ²⁵ Helpe me o LORDE my God, oh saue me for thy mercies sake. ²⁶ That they maye knowe, how that this is thy hande, and that thou hast done it. ²⁷ Though they curse, yet blesse thou: ²⁸ and let them be cofounded, that ryse vp agaynst me, but let thy seruaunt reioyse. ²⁹ Let myne aduersaries be clothed with their owne shame, as with a cloake. ³⁰ As for me, I wil geue thankes vnto the LORDE with my mouth, and prayse him amonge the multitude. ³¹ For he stondeth at the right hande of the poore, to saue him from soch as condempne his soule. ¹¹⁰ ¹ The LORDE sayde vnto my LORDE: Syt thou on my right hande, vntill I make thine enemies thy fotestole. ² The LORDE shal sende the rodde of thy power out of Sion, be thou ruler euen in ye myddest amonge thine enemies. ³ In the daye of thy power shal thy people offre the frewill offeringes with an holy worshipe, ye dewe of thy byrth is of the wobe of the mornynge. ⁴ The LORDE sware, and wil not repent: Thou art a prest for euer after ye order of Melchisedec. ⁵ The LORDE vpon thy right honde, shal smyte euen kynges in the daye of his wrath. ⁶ He shal be iudge amoge the Heithen, he shal fyll them with deed bodies, and smyte in sonder the heades ouer dyuerse countres. ⁷ He shal drynke of the broke in the waye, therfore shal he lift vp his heade. ¹¹¹ ¹ I wil geue thankes vnto the LORDE with my whole herte: secretly amonge the faithfull, and in the congregacion. ² The workes of the LORDE are greate, sought out of all the that haue pleasure therin. ³ His worke is worthy to be praysed and had in honoure, and his rightuousnesse endureth for euer. ⁴ The mercifull & gracious LORDE hath so done his marvelous workes, yt they ought to be had in remebrauce. ⁵ He geueth meate vnto the yt feare him, he is euer myndfull of his couenaut. ⁶ He sheweth his people the power of his workes, that he maye geue them the heretage of the Heithen. ⁷ The workes of his hodes are verite & iudgment, all his comaundemetes are true. ⁸ They stonde fast for euer & euer, & are done in trueth & equite. ⁹ He sent redempcion vnto his people, he hath commaunded his couenaunt for euer, holy & reuerent is his name. ¹⁰ The feare of the LORDE is the begynnynge of wy?dome, a good vnderstondinge haue all they that do therafter: the prayse of it endureth for euer. ¹¹² ¹ Blessed is the man yt feareth the LORDE, & hath greate delite in his commaundementes. ² His sede shall be mightie vpon earth, the generacion of the faithfull shalbe blessed. ³ Riches & pleteousnesse shalbe in his house, & his rightuousnes endureth for euer. ⁴ Vnto the godly there ariseth vp light in the darcknesse: he is merciful, louynge & rightuous. ⁵ Wel is him that is mercifull, & lendeth gladly, & podreth his wordes wt discrecion. ⁶ For he shal neuer be moued, the rightuous shal be had in an euerlastinge remembraunce. ⁷ He wil not be afrayed for eny euell tydinges, his herte stondeth fast, & beleueth in ye LORDE. ⁸ His herte is stablished, he wil not shrencke, vntill he se his desyre vpon his enemies. ⁹ He hath sparsed abrode, & geue to the poore, his rightuousnes remayneth for euer, his horne shalbe exalted wt honor. ¹⁰ The vngodly shal se it, & it shal greue him: he shall gnash wt his teth & consume awaye, & the desyre of the vngodly shal perish. ¹¹³ ¹ Prayse the LORDE (O ye seruauntes) O prayse the name of the LORDE. ² Blessed be the name of the LORDE, fro this tyme forth for euermore. ³ The LORDES name is worthy to be praysed, fro the rysinge vp of the Sonne vnto the goinge downe of the same. ⁴ The LORDE is hye aboue all Heithen, and his glory aboue the heaues. ⁵ Who is like vnto the LORDE oure God, yt hath his dwellinge so hye, ⁶ which humbleth himself, to beholde that is in heauen and earth? ⁷ Which taketh vp the symple out of the dust, and lifteth the poore out of the myre. ⁸ That he maye set him amonge the prynces, euen amonge the prynces of his people. ⁹ Which maketh the baren woman to kepe house, and to be a ioyfull mother of children. Halleluya. ¹¹⁴ ¹ When Israel came out of Egipte, & the house of Iacob from amonge that straunge people. ² Iuda was his Sactuary, Israel his dominion. ³ The see sawe that, and fled, Iordan turned backe. ⁴ The mountaynes skipped like rammes, & the litle hilles like yonge shepe. ⁵ What ayled the (o thou see) that thou fleddest? and thou Iordan, that thou turnedest backe? ⁶ Ye mountaynes, that ye skipped like rammes? and ye litle hilles, like yonge shepe? ⁷ The earth trembled at the presence of the LORDE, at the presence of the God of Iacob. ⁸ Which turned the harde rocke in to a stondinge water, & the flynt stone in to a sprynginge well. ¹¹⁵ ¹ Not vnto vs (o LORDE) not vnto vs, but vnto thy name geue the prayse, for thy louinge mercy and faithfulnes. ² Wherfore shal the Heithen saye: where is now their God? ³ As for oure God, he is in heauen, he doth what soeuer it pleaseth him. ⁴ Their ymages are but syluer and golde, euen the worke of mens hodes. ⁵ They haue mouthes, and speake not: eyes haue they, but they se not. ⁶ They haue eares, and heare not: noses haue they, but they smell not. ⁷ They haue handes and handle not, fete haue they, but they can not go, nether can they speake thorow their throte. ⁸ They that made them, are like vnto them, and so are all soch as put their trust in them. ⁹ But let Israel trust in ye LORDE, for he is their sucoure & defence. ¹⁰ Let the house of Aaron put their trust in ye LORDE, for he is their sucoure & defence. ¹¹ They that feare the LORDE, let the put their trust in the LORDE, for he is their sucoure and defence. ¹² The LORDE is myndefull of vs, & blesseth vs: he blesseth ye house of Israel, he blesseth ye house of Aaron. ¹³ Yee he blesseth all them that feare the LORDE, both small & greate. ¹⁴ The LORDE encrease you more & more: you, and youre childre. ¹⁵ For ye are ye blessed of the LORDE, which made heauen & earth. ¹⁶ All the whole heauens are the LORDES, but the earth hath he geue vnto ye childre of men. ¹⁷ The deed prayse not the (o LORDE) nether all they that go downe in to sylence. ¹⁸ But we will prayse the LORDE, from this tyme forth for euermore. Halleluya. ¹¹⁶ ¹ I am wel pleased, yt the LORDE hath herde ye voyce of my prayer. ² That he hath enclyned his eare vnto me, therfore wil I call vpo him as longe as I lyue. ³ The snares of death copased me rounde aboute, the paynes of hell gat holde vpon me, ⁴ I founde trouble and heuynesse. Then called I vpon ye name of the LORDE: o LORDE, delyuer my soule. ⁵ Gracious is ye LORDE & rightuous, yee oure God is mercifull. ⁶ The LORDE preserueth ye symple, I was brought downe, and he helped me. ⁷ Turne agayne then vnto thy rest (o my soule) for the LORDE hath geuen the thy desyre. ⁸ And why? thou hast delyuered my soule from death, myne eyes from teares, and my fete from fallinge. ⁹ I wil walke before ye LORDE, in the londe of the lyuynge. ¹⁰ I beleued, and therfore haue I spoke, but I was sore troubled. ¹¹ I sayde in my haist: All men are lyers. ¹² What rewarde shal I geue vnto ye LORDE, for all the benefites yt he hath done vnto me? ¹³ I wil receaue the cuppe of saluacio, and call vpon the name of the LORDE. ¹⁴ I wil paye my vowes in the presence of all his people, right deare in the sight of ye LORDE is the death of his sayntes. ¹⁵ O LORDE, I am thy seruaunt, I am thy seruaunt, ¹⁶ and the sonne of thy handmayden, thou hast broken my bondes in sonder. ¹⁷ I wil offre the the sacrifice of thankes geuynge, and wil call vpon the name of the LORDE. ¹⁸ I wil paye my vowes vnto the LORDE in the sight of all his people, ¹⁹ in the courtes of the LORDES house, eue in the myddest of the, o Ierusalem. Halleluya. ¹¹⁷ ¹ O prayse the LORDE all ye Gentiles, laude him all ye people. ² For his mercifull kyndnes is euer more and more towarde vs, & the trueth of the LORDE endureth for euer. Halleluya. ¹¹⁸ ¹ O Geue thankes vnto the LORDE, for he is gracious, and his mercy endureth for euer. ² Let Israel now confesse, yt his mercy endureth for euer. ³ Let the house of Aaron now confesse, that his mercy endureth for euer. ⁴ Yee let the now that feare the LORDE, confesse, that his mercy endureth for euer. ⁵ I called vpon the LORDE in trouble, and the LORDE herde me at large. ⁶ The LORDE is my helper, I wil not feare what man doeth vnto me. ⁷ The LORDE is my helper, & I shal se my desyre vpon myne enemies. ⁸ It is better to trust in the LORDE, then to put eny confidence in man. ⁹ It is better to trust in the LORDE, then to put eny confidece in prynces. ¹⁰ All Heithen compased me rounde aboute, but in the name of the LORDE wil I destroye the. ¹¹ They kepte me in on euery syde, but in the name of the LORDE, I wil destroye them. ¹² They came aboute me like bees, & were as hote as the fyre in the thornes, but in the name of the LORDE I wil destroye them. ¹³ They thrust at me, that I might fall, but the LORDE was my helpe. ¹⁴ The LORDE is my stregth, & my songe, & is become my saluacion. ¹⁵ The voyce of ioye & myrth is in the dwellynges of ye rightuous, for ye right hande of the LORDE hath gotte the victory. ¹⁶ The right hande of the LORDE hath the preemynence, the right hade of the LORDE hath gotte the victory. ¹⁷ I wil not dye, but lyue, and declare the workes of the LORDE. ¹⁸ The LORDE hath chastened & correcte me, but he hath not geuen me ouer vnto death. ¹⁹ Open me the gates of rightuousnes, yt I maye go in there thorow, & geue thakes vnto the LORDE. ²⁰ This is the dore of the LORDE, the rightuous shall entre in thorow it. ²¹ I thanke the, yt thou hast herde me, & art become my saluacio. ²² The same stone which the buylders refused, is become the heade stone in the corner. ²³ This was the LORDES doinge, & it is maruelous in or eyes. ²⁴ This is the daye which the LORDE hath made, let vs reioyse and be glad in it. ²⁵ Helpe now o LORDE, o LORDE sende vs now prosperite. ²⁶ Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORDE, we wish you good lucke, ye that be of the house of the LORDE. ²⁷ God is the LORDE, & hath shewed vs light: O garnish the solempne feast with grene braunches, eue vnto the hornes of ye aulter. ²⁸ Thou art my God, & I wil thanke the: thou art my God, and I wil prayse the. ²⁹ O geue thankes vnto the LORDE, for he is gracious, & his mercy endureth for euer. ¹¹⁹ ¹ Blessed are those yt be vndefiled in the waye: which walke in the lawe of ye LORDE. ² Blessed are they that kepe his testimonies, & seke him with their whole herte. ³ Which walke in his wayes, & do no wickednesse. ⁴ Thou hast geuen strayte charge to kepe thy commaundementes. ⁵ O that my wayes were stablished to kepe thy statutes. ⁶ So shulde I not be confounded, whyle I haue respecte vnto all thy commaundementes. ⁷ I wil thanke the with an vnfayned herte, because I am lerned in the iudgmentes of thy rightuousnesse. ⁸ I wil kepe thy statutes, o forsake me not vtterly. ⁹ Where withall shall a yonge man clense his waye? Euen by rulinge himself after thy worde. ¹⁰ With my whole herte do I seke ye, O let me not go wronge out of thy comaundemetes. ¹¹ Thy wordes haue I hyd within my herte, yt I shulde not synne agaynst the. ¹² Praysed be thou O LORDE, O teach me thy statutes. ¹³ With my lippes wil I be tellynge out all the iudgmentes of thy mouth. ¹⁴ I haue as greate delite in the waye of thy testimonies, as in all maner of riches. ¹⁵ I wil exercise my self in thy comaundementes, & haue respecte vnto thy fotepathes. ¹⁶ My delite shalbe in thy statutes, I will not forget thy wordes. ¹⁷ O do well vnto thy seruaunt, that I maye lyue and kepe thy wordes. ¹⁸ Open thou myne eyes, & so shal I spie out wonderous thinges in yi lawe. ¹⁹ I am a strauger vpo earth, O hyde not thy commaundementes fro me. ²⁰ My soule breaketh out, for the very feruent desyre that I haue allwaye vnto thy iudgmentes. ²¹ Thou rebukest the proude, cursed are they that departe from thy commaundemetes ²² O turne fro me shame & rebuke, for I kepe thy testimonies. ²³ Prynces also syt & speake agaynst me, but thy seruaut is occupied in thy statutes. ²⁴ In thy testimonies is my delite, they are my councelers. ²⁵ My soule cleueth to the dust, O quicken thou me acordinge to thy worde. ²⁶ I knowleged my wayes, & thou herdest me, O teach me then thy statutes. ²⁷ Make me to vnderstonde the waye of thy commaundemetes, & so shal I talke of thy wonderous workes. ²⁸ My soule melteth awaye for very heuynesse, o set me vp acordinge vnto thy worde. ²⁹ Take fro me the waye of lyenge, & graunte me thy lawe. ³⁰ I haue chosen the waye of treuth, thy iudgmentes haue I layed before me. ³¹ I sticke vnto thy testimonies, o LORDE cofounde me not. ³² I wil rune the waye of thy commaundementes, when thou hast comforted my herte. ³³ Teach me o LORDE the waye of thy statutes, and I shal kepe it vnto the ende. ³⁴ O geue me vnderstondinge, and I shal kepe yi lawe, yee I shal kepe it with my whole herte. ³⁵ Lede me in the path of thy commaundemetes, for that is my desyre, ³⁶ Enclyne myne herte vnto thy testimonies, & not to cuvetousnes. ³⁷ O turne awaye myne eyes, lest they beholde vanite, & quicke me in thy waie. ³⁸ O stablish thy worde in thy seruaunt, yt I maye feare the. ³⁹ Take awaye the rebuke yt I am afraied of, for thy iudgmetes are amiable. ⁴⁰ Beholde, my delite is in thy commaudemetes, o quycke me in thy rightuousnesse. ⁴¹ Let thy louynge mercy come vnto me (o LORDE) and thy sauynge health acordinge vnto thy worde. ⁴² That I maye geue answere vnto my blasphemers, for my trust is in yi worde. ⁴³ O take not ye worde of treuth vtterly out of my mouth, for my hope is in thy iudgmentes. ⁴⁴ So shal I allwaye kepe thy lawe, yee for euer and euer. ⁴⁵ And I wil walke at liberty, for I seke thy commaundementes. ⁴⁶ I wil speake of thy testimonies euen before kynges, and wil not be ashamed. ⁴⁷ My delite shalbe in thy commaundementes, which I loue. ⁴⁸ My hondes also will I lift vp vnto thy commaundemetes which I loue, & my talkynge shalbe of thy statutes. ⁴⁹ O thynke vpon thy seruaunt as concernynge yi worde, wherin thou hast caused me to put my trust. ⁵⁰ For it is my comforte in my trouble, yee thy worde quyckeneth me. ⁵¹ The proude haue me greatly in derision, yet shrencke not I from thy lawe. ⁵² I remembre thy euerlastinge iudgmentes (o LORDE) and am comforted. ⁵³ I am horribly afrayed for ye vngodly, that forsake thy lawe. ⁵⁴ Thy statutes are my songes in the house of my pilgremage. ⁵⁵ I thynke vpon thy name (o LORDE) in the night season, and kepe thy lawe. ⁵⁶ It is myne owne, for I kepe thy commaundementes. ⁵⁷ Thou art my porcion (o LORDE) I am purposed to kepe thy lawe. ⁵⁸ I make myne humble peticion in thy presence wt my whole herte, o be mercifull vnto me
