PSAL. LXXIII.
Yet God is good to Israel,
to each pure hearted one.
But as for me, my steps neer slipt,
my feet were almost gone.
For I invious was, and grudg'd
the foolish folk to see,
When I perceiv'd the wicked sort
enjoy prosperitie.

But as for me, my steps neer slipt,
my feet were almost gone.
For I invious was, and grudg'd
the foolish folk to see,
When I perceiv'd the wicked sort
enjoy prosperitie.
For stil their strength continueth firm
their death of bands is free:
They are not toil'd as other men,
nor plagu'd as others bee:
Therefore, their pride, like to a chain
them compasseth about;
And, as a garment, violence
doth cover them throughout.

They are not toil'd as other men,

Therefore, their pride, like to a chain

And, as a garment, violence
doth cover them throughout.
Their eyes stand out with fat, they have
more then their hearts could wish.
They are corrupt, their talk of wrong
both lewd and loftie is.
They set their mouth against the heav'ns
in their blasphemous talk;
And their reproaching tongue throughout
the earth at large doth walk.

They set their mouth against the heav'ns

And their reproaching tongue throughout

His people often times for this
look back, and turn about,
Sith waters of so full a cup
to these are powred out.
And thus they say, How can it be
that God these things doth know?
Or, can there in the Highest be
knowledge of things below?

Behold, these are the wicked ones,
yet prosper at their will
In worldly things, they do increase
in wealth and riches still.
I verily have done in vain
my heart to purifie:
To no effect in innocence
washed my hands have I.

For dayly, and all day throughout
great plagues I suffered have;
Yea every morning I of new
did chastisement receive.
If in this manner foolishly
to speak I would intend,
Thy childrens generation
behold I should offend.

When I this thought to know, it was
too hard a thing for me,
Till to Gods Sanctuary I went,
then I their end did see.
Assuredly thou didst them set
a slippery place upon:
Them suddenly thou castedst down
into destruction.

How in a moment, suddenly
to ruine brought are they!
With fearful terrours utterly
they are consum'd away.
Ev'n like unto a dream, when one
from sleeping doth arise;
So thou, O Lord, when thou awak'st,
their image shalt despise.

Thus grieved was my heart in me,
and me my reins opprest.
So rude was I, and ignorant,
and in thy sight a beast.
Neverthelesse continually,
O Lord, I am with thee:
Thou dost me hold by my right hand,
and still upholdest me.
and me my reins opprest.
So rude was I, and ignorant,
and in thy sight a beast.
Neverthelesse continually,
O Lord, I am with thee:
Thou dost me hold by my right hand,
and still upholdest me.
Thou, with thy counsel, while I live
wilt me conduct and guide;
And to thy glory afterward
receive me, to abide.
Whom have I in the heavens high,
but thee, O Lord, alone?
And in the earth, whom I desire
beside thee, there is none.
wilt me conduct and guide;
And to thy glory afterward
receive me, to abide.
Whom have I in the heavens high,
but thee, O Lord, alone?
beside thee, there is none.
My flesh & heart doth faint & fail,
but God doth fail me never;
For of my heart God is the strength,
and portion for ever.
For lo, those that are far from thee,
they quickly perish shall:
Them, that a-whoring from thee go,
thou hast destroyed all.
but God doth fail me never;
For of my heart God is the strength,
and portion for ever.
For lo, those that are far from thee,
they quickly perish shall:
Them, that a-whoring from thee go,
thou hast destroyed all.
