Psal. 3.

[_]

psalmus Tertius iampridem conuersus extat cum cæteris.

O lorde hou many ennemies haue I
hou many do against me nou arise
quho of my soule do say ue can not spy
no helth in god for him in any uise
but thou ô lorde art both my targe & gloire
& holdes aloft my head as of befoire.
quhen as my uoice to god did cry & ueip
he ansourid me out of his holy hill
then did I lay me doun & soundly sleip
& ualk in sure since he maintaind me still
therfoire at all I uoulde not be afrayde
thoch hundreth thousandis uaire about me layde.
iehoua ryse my god preserue me nou
quho stroke my foes on iaue & on chaft bone
quho brakk the uikkeddis teeth bot only thou
all health is into iehoua alone
poure doun upon thy people from aboue
thy confortabill blessing & thy loue.
finis.
