Magmus dominus.

Psal. xlviii.

I.H.

109

A notable deliueraunce of Hierusalemn frō the handes of many kings is mentioned, for the which thankes are giuen to God, and the estate of that citie is praysed, that hathe God so presently at all tymes redye to defende them, this Psalme semeth to be made in the tyme of Ahaz, Iosaphat, Asa or Ezechia, for in their times chiefly, was the citie by forayne Prynces assaulted.

[_]

Sing this as the .xlvi. psalme.

Great is the Lorde and with greate prayse,
to be aduaunced styll:
Within the citie of our Lorde,
vpon hys holy hyll.
Mount Sion is a plesant place,
it gladdeth all the lande:
The cytie of the myghty kynge,
on her northside doth stande.
Within the pallaces therof,
God is a refuge knowen:
For loe the kings were gathered and
together eke were gone.
But when they did beholde it so,
they wondred and they weare:
Astonyed muche and sodenly,
were driuen backe with feare.
Great terrour there on them did falle,
for euery wo they crye:
As doth a woman when she shall,
go trauayle by and by,
As thou with esterne winde the shippes
vpon the sea doest breake,
So they were stayd and euen as,
we harde oure fathers speake,
So in the citie of the Lorde,
we saw as it was tolde,

110

Yea in the citie which oure Lorde,
for euer will vpholde:
O Lorde we wayte and doo attende,
on thy good helpe and grace.
For whiche we doo all times attende,
within thy holly place.
O Lorde according to thy name
for euer is thy prayse:
And thy ryght hand, O Lord, is full,
of rightuousnes alwayes.
Let for thy iudgements Sion mounte,
full filled be with ioyes:
And eke of Iuda graunt O Lorde,
the daunger to reioyse.
Goe walke about all Syon hyll,
yea rounde about her go:
And tell the towres that theruppon,
are bilded in a rowe.
And marke ye well her bulwarks all,
beholde her towres there:
That ye may tell therof to them,
that after shalbe here.
For this God is our God, our God,
for euermore is he:
yea and vnto the death also,
our guider shall he be.
