CXII.
1
Sing Halelujah! Blest is hee
Who doth Jehouah feare,
To whom the Lord's commandements
Exceedinglie ar deare.
2
His seed shall mightie be on earth.
The just man's progenie
3
The Lord shall blesse, and in his house
Shall wealth and riches bee.
4
His righteousnes endures for ay.
To him ariseth light
In darknes. Hee is gracious,
Shewes mercy and doth right.
5
A good man pitty doth expresse,
And to the needfull lends;
And caryes with discretion
What ever hee intends.
6
Hee, (surelie,) nevir shal be mov'd.
The wpright's memorie
7
No tyme shall bound. Hee fears no news,
How bade so e're they be.
8
Fix'd is his hart; In God hee trusts;
His hart's vpholden still.
Hee fears not, til vpon his foes
God his desires fullfill.
9
Hee scattred hath, and given the poore.
His righteousnes for ay
10
Shall last. His horne, in honor raysd,
The wicked shal dismay,
Who this shal sie, and greeve, and gnash
His teeth, and pine for spite;
All whoes desires shall frustrate be,
And with him perrisch quite.
