Whom thou shalt correcke with an yerne staffe : and breke lyke an erthen vessel .

Wherfore ye kynges se that ye be wyse : and receiue disciplyne / O iuges of the erthe .

That ye maye geue the lorde his honour : & serue him ioyously with reuerent feare .

And that ye maye embrase the sonne / lest he beinge wrath / ye perishe for your mischeif .

For his anger shalbe shortly kindled : and then / oh how blessed are thei that truste in him .

For thou arte God / whom no vngodlynes plesethe : with whom the maligne dwelleth not .

In thy presens the violent abydeth not : thou hatest al workers of myscheif .

Thou destroyest lyers : blodye and fraudelent thou aborrest oh lorde But I / animated with thy manyfolde goodnes / am comen vnto thy housse : I adoure in thy holy temple / reuerently feringe the.

Lede me Lorde in thy rightewisenes defensed from my aduersaries : and prepare thy waye before me .

For the trwthe is not in their mouthes / they are corrupted within : their throte is an open graue / but with their tongue thei flater .

Dampne them o god / let them fal at their owne counsails / cast them out for their owne manifolde myscheif / for they are rebellious agenst the.

But contrarye wyse / al men mought reioyse that truste in the : they mought euermore be glad / thou beinge their defender .

Thei mought reioyse all in the : which worship thy name .

For thou lorde art gracious vnto the iuste : and with thy fauour defendest him as with a bukler .

LOrde my god / in the do I truste : saue me from al that persecute me / & delyuer me .

Lest they rauessh & tere me in pesis lyke a lyon : for ther is none els to delyuer me .

Lorde my god / if I did this thinge : if this faute be founde in me :

If I haue hurted them agen that hurted me : If I haue vniustely spoyled myn enemye :

Then let my enemie persuwe me and take me / and trede me downe vnder his fete : ye let hym thruste my glorye in to the dirte . * * Let him so do Sela. Aryse and be borne vp lorde with thy wrath and indignacion agenste my aduersaries / and performe that vengeaunce that thou hast promysed .

I Shall prayse the ( Oh Lorde ) with al my herte : and preche forth thy meruelouse factis .

I shalbe glad and reioyse in the / magnifyinge thy name ryght highelye .

Because myne enemye is fled backe : he is fallen and destroyd by thy power .

For thou hast delyuered me & geue sentence withe me / settinge me at last in my seate royal / oh iuste iuge .

Thou holdest downe the haithen thou destroyest the wicked / & quenchest their name for euer .

Thou takest awaye clene the harde and sharpe weapens of our enimys / thou cuttest awaye cytes : that with their fall their name be forgoten .

But the Lorde raigneth euerlastinge : which hath prepared his seat roial to obserue equite .

He tempereth the worlde with rightwisnes : and ministreth trwe iugement vnto the peple .

The lorde is a salfe sanctuary to the oppressed / and a refugye in the tyme of distresse .

And for this cause / al that knowe thy name cleaue vnto the : for thou forsakest them not that seke the ( oh lorde .

Praise the Lorde which dwelleth in zion : put the peple in mynde of his counsels .

For he holdeth in mynde the blode of the oppressed : he enquirethe for it / he forgeteth not their cry●ge Lorde thou art mercifull / and intent vnto the trouble done to me of my enemyes : and thou delyuerest me from the power of deth .

That I might layeforth thy hyghe prayse in zion : and reioyse yn thy sauinge helth .

When euen contrarye / the heithen be drowned in their owne mischeif / which thei inuented : and their fete taken in their owne nette which thei haue bente .

The lorde maketh his iugement knowne : in that he trappeth the synner taken in his owne snare . * * So he doth . Sela. Oh / prayse worthy perpetuall .

The vngodly go their waye vnto hel / & all heithen that forget god . But the poore adflicte shal neuer be fo●goten : nether shall the expectacion of these poore forsaken be frustrate .

Aryse lorde that this man preuayle not : let these haithen be condempned before the.

Smyte them with soden feare / that thei might knowe them selues to be but men mortal . * * So do . Selah .

I Shall loue the ( oh Lorde ) my strength / lorde thou arte my ferme rocke / my bulwarke / and my refugie . My god / my defense vnto whom I cleaue . My buckler / my mighty sauinge helth / and my saynctuarye . When I prayse and loaue the lorde : then am I salfe frome myne enemyes .

Bondis of dethe compassed me about / the roringe flowdis of Belial swelled vp agenste me .

The snares of hel closed me in : in the nettis of deth was I masshed But yet beinge in theis distresses I called vpon and worshiped the Lorde / and cryed vnto my god .

And he herde my voice / euen from his holye hill .

And as sone as my cryinge came vnto his earis : the erthe trembled and shoke / the foundacions of the hilles staggarde & were smyten togither : for it was he that was wrathe .

Fume ascended out of his nostrelles / and deuoueringe fyer out of his mouth / so that coles were kindled there at .

He made the heuens to stowpe whyle he came downe / hauinge a derke cloude vnder his fete .

He was caried vpon the Cherubims / and did flee / he came fleinge with the winges of the winde .

He closed him self in derknes sittinge therein as in his tabernacle he was hid in blacke waters euen in clowdes ful of rayne .

But at the brightnes of his lokingeforth : clowdes proceded / hayle and fyerye beames .

And then the Lorde thondred frome aboue / and the most highe god sent forth his noyse : here feldown haile and boltis of fier .

He shet forth and scatred his dartes / he smote forth mightely mich lighteninge ouer al.

The veynes of springes were openned / the foundacions of the rounde erth were layd wyde open at thy chydinge / Oh lorde / they laye naked at thy breth and stomak of thy wrathe .

Then he did put downe his hande frome an highe and toke me vp quickly : and drewe me forth of the vehement waters .

He delyuered me frome the violence of my enemyes / and my haters which had ouercome me .

LOrde / se how the kynge reioyseth in thy strength ? howe excedinge glad is he of thy victoriouse helpe ?

Thou haste geuen him the desier of his owne herte : and graunted him the peticions of his lyppes . * * So thou haste Selah .

Thou hast preuented him withe thy benigne liberalite : and hast set the golden crowne vppon hys head .

He asked lyfe of the / and thou gauest him longe lyfe / ye a perpetual lyfe .

Hts glorye excedeth / but yet through thy helpe : honour and clea● fame hast thou layd vpon him .

And thou shalt also endewe hym with perpetual felicite / and make him glad wythe thy ioyouse presence .

My God / my god : wherfore hast thou forsaken me ? the wordes of my oute cryinge are ful farre from helthe .

I cal vpon the / the hole daye Oh my god / and yet thou herist not : ye I ceasse not cryinge the hole nyghte .

Verely thou art he that dwelleste in the holye temple / oh the glorye of Israel : thou wast the hope off oure fathers / in the thei trusted / and thou delyuerdst them .

Vnto the thei cryed and were delyuered / in the thei trusted and were not confounded .

But I am a worme and nomore a man / a fable / a iestinge stoke for men / a vyle abiecte in ignominye of the comen peple .
