Domine in virtute.

Psalme. xxi.

T.S.

Dauid in the parson of the people prayseth God for the victory which he gaue them against the Siriās and Ammonites .i. Sam .x.xi. wherin he had the riche crowne of the king of Ammon set vpon his head .ii, Sam .xii. and was indued with the manifolde blessinges of God, and contrarywise his enemies destroyed.

[1]

O Lord how ioyfull is the king,

in thy strēgth, & thy power:
how vemently doeth he reioyce
in thee hys sauior.

42

[2]

For thou haste geuen vnto him

his godly harts desire:
to hym nothing hast thou denide
of that he did require.

Dauid did not onely obtayne lyfe, but also assurance that his posteritie shold raigne for euer.

3

Thou didst preuent hym with thy gyftes,

and blessynges manifold:
And thou hast set vpon hys head.
a crowne of perfect golde.

4

And when he asked life of thee,

therof thou madst hym sure:
To haue longe lyfe, yea suche a lyfe,
as euer should indure.

5

Greate is hys glory by thy helpe,

thy benefyte and ayde:
Greate worship and greate honor bothe,
thou hast vpon hym layde,

6

Thou wylte geue hym felycytie,

that neuer shall decay:
And with thy chearefull countenaunce,
wylt comforte hym alway.

43

7

For why the kinge doeth strongly trust,

Hereof he describeth the strength of christes kingdome against thenemies therof.


in God for to preuayle:
Therfore hys goodnes and his grace,
will not that he shall quayle.

8

But let thyne enemies fele thy force,

and those that thee withstande:
Finde out thy foes, and let them fele,
the power of thy right hande.

9

And like an ouen burne them Lorde,

in firie flame and fume:
Thine angre shall destroy them all,
and fyre shall them consume.

10

And thou wilt roote out of the earth,

their frute that should increase,
And from the number of thy folke,
theyr seede shall ende and cease.

11

For why? muche mischief did they muse,

against thyne holy name:
Yet did they fayle and had no power,
for to performe the same.

12

But as a marke thou shalt them set,

in a most open place:
And charge thy bowstringes readily,
against thyne enemies face.

13

Be thou exalted Lorde therfore.

in thy strength euery houre:
So shall we sing right solempnely,
praisyng thy might and power.
