Psalms 115:1-119:176 Not vnto vs (O Lorde) not vnto vs, but vnto thy name geue the prayse, for thy louing mercy, & for thy truthes sake.

Great⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Not vnto vs (O Lorde) not vnto vs, but vnto thy name geue the prayse, for thy louing mercy, & for thy truthes sake. ² Wherfore shall the Heathen saye: where is now their God? ³ As for oure God, he is in heauen, he hath done whatsoeuer pleased him. ⁴ Their ydoles are syluer and gold, euen the worcke of mens handes. ⁵ They haue mouth, and speake not: eyes haue they, and se not. ⁶ They haue eares, & heare not: noses haue they, and smell not. ⁷ They haue handes and handle not: fete haue they, and walke not, nether speake they thorow their throte. ⁸ They that make them, are lyke vnto them, and so are all soch as put their trust in them. ⁹ But Israel trust thou in the Lord, he his their succoure & defence. ¹⁰ Ye house of Aaron put youre trust in the Lorde: he is their helper, and defender. ¹¹ Ye that feare the Lorde, put youre trust in the Lord, he is their helper and defender. ¹² The Lorde hath bene myndfull of vs, and he shall blesse vs: euen he shall blesse the house of Israel, he shall blesse the house of Aaron. ¹³ He shall blesse them that feare the Lorde, both small and great. ¹⁴ The Lorde shall encrease you more and more: you, & youre children. ¹⁵ Ye are the blessed of the Lord, which made heauen & earth. ¹⁶ All the whole heauens are the Lordes, the earth hath he geuen vnto the children of men. ¹⁷ The deed prayse not the (O Lord) nether all they that go downe in to the sylence. ¹⁸ But we wyll prayse the Lorde, from thys tyme forth for euermore. Prayse the Lorde. ¹¹⁶ ¹ I Am well pleased, that the Lorde hath herd the voyce of my prayer. ² That he hath enclined his eare vnto me, therfore will I call vpon him as longe as I lyue. ³ The snares of death compased me round about, and the paynes of hell gat hold vpon me, ⁴ I shall fynde trouble and heuynesse, and I shall call vpon the name of the Lorde (O Lord) I besech the delyuer my soule. ⁵ Gracious is the Lorde, and ryghteous, yee oure God is mercyfull. ⁶ The Lord preserueth the symple: I was in mysery, and he helped me. ⁷ Turne agayne then vnto thy rest, O my soule, for the Lorde hath rewarded the. ⁸ And why thou hast delyuered my soule from death, mine eyes from teares, and my fete from fallyng. ⁹ I will walcke before the Lord, in the land of the lyuyng. ¹⁰ I beleued, and therfore wyll I speake, but I was sore troubled. ¹¹ I sayd in my hast: All men are lyers. ¹² What reward shall I geue vnto the Lorde, for all the benefytes that he hath done vnto me? ¹³ I wyll receaue the cuppe of saluacion, and call vpon the name of the Lord. ¹⁴ I wyll paye my vowes now in the presence of all his people, ryght deare in the syght of the Lorde is the death of hys saynctes. ¹⁵ Behold (O Lorde) how that I am thy seruaunt: I am thy seruaunt, ¹⁶ and the sonne of thy handmayde, thou hast broken my bondes in sonder. ¹⁷ I wyll offre to the, the sacrifyce of thanckesgeuynge, and wyll call vpon the name of the Lord. ¹⁸ I wyll paye my vowes vnto the Lord in the syght of all his people, ¹⁹ in the courtes of the Lordes house, euen in the myddest of the, O Ierusalem. Prayse the Lorde. ¹¹⁷ ¹ O prayse the Lord all ye Heithen, prayse him all ye nacions. ² For his mercyfull kyndnes is euermore and more toward vs, and the truth of the Lord endureth for euer. Prayse the Lorde. ¹¹⁸ ¹ O geue thanckes vnto the Lorde, for he hys gracious, because hys mercy endureth for euer. ² Let Israel now confesse, that his mercy endureth for euer. ³ Let the house of Aaron now confesse, that his mercy endureth for euer. ⁴ Yee let them now that feare the Lord confesse, that his mercy endureth for euer. ⁵ I called vpon the Lord in trouble, and the Lord herd me at large. ⁶ The Lord is on my syde, I wyll not feare what man doeth vnto me. ⁷ The Lorde taketh my parte wt them that help me: therfore shall I se my desyre vpon myne enemyes. ⁸ It is better to trust in the Lord, then to put eny confydence in man. ⁹ It is better to trust in the Lorde, then to put eny confydence in prynces. ¹⁰ All nacions compased me rounde about, but in the name of the Lorde will I destroy them. ¹¹ They kept me in on euery syde, they kept me in (I saye) on euery syde, but in the name of the Lorde, I wyll destroye them. ¹² They came aboute me lyke bees, and are extincte, euen as the fyre amonge the thornes, for in the name of the Lorde I wyl destroye them. ¹³ Thou hast thrust sore at me, that I myght fall, but the Lorde was my helpe. ¹⁴ The Lorde is my strength, & my songe, and is become my saluacion. ¹⁵ The voyce of ioye and health is in the dwellynges of the ryghteous: the ryght hande of the Lorde bryngeth myghtye thynges to passe. ¹⁶ The ryght hande of the Lorde hath the preeminence, the ryght hande of the Lorde bryngeth mightie thynges to passe. ¹⁷ I wyll 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 righteousnes, that I may go into them, & geue thankes vnto the Lorde. ²⁰ Thys is the gate of the Lorde, the ryghteous shal entre into it. ²¹ I wyl thanke the, for thou hast herde me, and arte become my saluacion. ²² The same stone whyche the buylders refused, is become the heade stone in the corner. ²³ Thys was the Lordes doynge, and it is maruelous in oure eyes. ²⁴ Thys is the daye, whych the Lorde hath made, we wyll reioyse and be glad in it. ²⁵ Helpe now O Lorde, o Lorde, sende vs nowe prosperitie. ²⁶ Blessed be he that commeth in the name of the Lorde, we haue wyshed you good lucke, ye that be of the house of the Lorde. ²⁷ God is the Lorde, Whyche hath shewed vs lyght: bynde the sacrifice with coardes, yee euen vnto the hornes of the aulter ²⁸ Thou arte my God, and I wyll thanke the: thou arte my God and I wyl prayse the. ²⁹ O geue thankes vnto the Lorde, for he is gracious and hys mercye endureth for euer. ¹¹⁹ ¹ Blessed are those that be vndefyled in the waye: and walke in the lawe of the Lorde. ² Blessed are they that kepe hys testimonies, and seke hym wyth theyr whole herte. ³ For they whych do no wyckednes, walke in hys wayes. ⁴ Thou hast charged that we shall diligently kepe thy commaundementes. ⁵ O that my wayes were made so directe, that I myght kepe thy statutes. ⁶ So shall I not be confounded, whyle I haue respecte vnto al thy commaundementes. ⁷ I wyl thanke the wyth an vnfayned herte, whan I shall haue learned the iudgementes of thy ryghteousnesse ⁸ I wyll kepe thy ceremonies, O forsake me not vtterly. ⁹ Where wyth all shall a yonge man clense hys waye? Euen by rulynge hymselfe after thy worde. ¹⁰ Wyth my whole herte haue I sought the. O let me not go wronge out of thy commaundementes. ¹¹ Thy wordes haue I hyd wythin my herte, that I shulde not synne agaynst the. ¹² Blessed art thou O Lorde, O teach me thy statutes. ¹³ Wyth my lyppes haue I bene tellynge of all the iudgementes of thy mouth. ¹⁴ I haue hadde as great delyte in the waye of thy testimonies, as in all maner of ryches. ¹⁵ I wyll talke of thy commaundementes, and haue respect vnto thy wayes. ¹⁶ My delyte shalbe in thy statutes, and I wyll not forget thy worde. ¹⁷ O do wel vnto thy seruaunt, that I may lyue and kepe thy worde. ¹⁸ Open thou mine eyes, that I maye se the wonderous thinges of thy lawe. ¹⁹ I am a straunger vpon earth, O hyde not thy commaundementes from me. ²⁰ My soule breaketh out, for the very feruent desyre that it hath alway vnto thy iudgementes. ²¹ Thou hast rebuked the proude, and cursed are they that do erre from thy commaundementes. ²² O turne fro me shame and rebuke, for I haue kept thy testimonies. ²³ Prynces also dyd sytte & speake agaynst me, but thy seruaunt is occupied in thy statutes. ²⁴ For thy testimonies are my delyte, and my councelers. ²⁵ My soule cleaueth to the dust, O quycken thou me accordynge to thy worde. ²⁶ I haue knowledged my wayes, and thou herdest me, O teach me thy statutes. ²⁷ Make me to vnderstande the waye of thy commaundementes, and so shall I talke of thy wonderous workes. ²⁸ My soule melteth awaye for very heuynesse, comforte thou me accordyng vnto thy worde. ²⁹ Take from me the way of lyeng, & cause thou me to make much of thy lawe. ³⁰ I haue chosen the waye of truth, and thy iudgementes haue I layed before me. ³¹ I haue stycken vnto thy testimonies, O Lorde confounde me not. ³² I wyll runne the waye of thy commaundementes, when thou hast set my herte at lybertie. ³³ Teach me O Lorde the waye of thy statutes, and I shal kepe it vnto the ende. ³⁴ Geue me vnderstandynge, and I shall kepe thy lawe, yee I shall kepe it wyth my whole herte. ³⁵ Make me to go in the path of thy commaundementes, for therin is my desyre. ³⁶ Enclyne my herte vnto thy testimonies, and not to couetousnesse. ³⁷ O turne awaye myne eyes, lest they beholde vanitie: and quycken thou me in thy waye. ³⁸ O stablysh thy worde in thy seruaunt that I maye feare the. ³⁹ Take awaye the rebuke that I am afrayed of, for thy iudgementes are good. ⁴⁰ Beholde, my delyte is in thy commaundementes, O quycken me in thy ryghteousnesse. ⁴¹ Let thy louynge mercy come also vnto me, O Lorde, euen thy saluacion accordyng vnto thy word. ⁴² So shal I make answere vnto my blasphemers, for my trust is in thy worde. ⁴³ O take not the worde of treuth vtterly oute of my mouth, for my hope is in thy iudgementes. ⁴⁴ So shall I alwaye kepe thy lawe, yee for euer & euer. ⁴⁵ And I will walke at liberty, for I seke thy commaundementes. ⁴⁶ I wyll speake of thy testimonies also euen before kynges, & wyll not be ashamed. ⁴⁷ And my delite shalbe in thy commaundementes, which I haue loued. ⁴⁸ My handes also wyll I lyfte vp vnto thy commaundementes whyche I haue loued, and my studye shalbe in thy statutes. ⁴⁹ O, thincke vpon thy seruaunt as concernynge thy worde, wherin thou hast caused me to put my trust. ⁵⁰ The same is my comforte in my trouble, for thy worde hath quyckned me. ⁵¹ The proude haue had me exceadyngly in derision yet haue I not shrynked from thy lawe. ⁵² For I remembred thyne euerlastynge iudgementes, O Lorde, and receaued conforte: ⁵³ I am horriblye afrayed for the vngodly, that forsake thy lawe. ⁵⁴ Thy statutes haue bene my songes, in the house of my pilgremage. ⁵⁵ I haue thought vpon thy name, O Lorde, in the night season, and haue kept thy lawe. ⁵⁶ Thys I hadde, because I kepte thy commaundementes. ⁵⁷ Thou arte my porcion, O Lorde, I haue promysed to kepe thy lawe. ⁵⁸ I made myne humble peticion in thy presence with my whole herte, O be mercyfull vnto me accordynge vnto thy worde. ⁵⁹ I call myne owne wayes to remembraunce, and tourne my fete into thy testimonie ⁶⁰ I made haste, and prolonged not the tyme, to kepe thy commaundementes. ⁶¹ The congregacions of the vngodly haue robbed me, but I haue not forgotten thy law. ⁶² At mydnyght wyll I ryse, to gyue thankes vnto the, bycause of thy ryghtuous iudgementes. ⁶³ I am a companion of all them that feare the and kepe thy commaundementes. ⁶⁴ The earth, O Lorde, is full of thy mercy.
