PSAL. XCII.

[1]

To render thanks unto the Lord

it is a comly thing,
And to thy Name O thou most high,
due praise aloud to sing.

2

Thy loving kindnesse to show forth.

when shines the morning light:
And to declare thy fathfulnesse,
with pleasure, every night.

3

On a ten stringed instrument,

upon the psalterie:
And on the harp, with solemn sound,
and grave-sweet melodie.

4

For thou, Lord, by thy mighty work,

hast made my heart right glad;
And I will triumph in the works
which by thine hands were made.

5

How great, Lord, are thy works! each thought

of thine a deep it is;

6

A brutish man it knoweth not,

fools understand not this.

7

When those that lewd & wicked are,

spring quickly up like grasse,
And workers of iniquity
do flourish all apace,
It is that they for ever may
destroyed be and slain:

8

But thou, O Lord, art the most high

for ever to remain.

9

For lo, thine enemies, O Lord,

thine enemies perish shal:
The workers of iniquity
shal be dispersed all.

10

But thou shalt, like unto the horn

of th'unicorn, exalt
My horn on high; thou with fresh oyl
anoint me also shalt.

11

Mine eye shal also my desire

see on mine enemies;
Mine ears shal of the wicked hear,
that do against me rise.

12

But like the palm-tree, flourishing

shal be the righteous one:
He shal like to the Cedar grow
that is in Lebanon.

13

Those that within the house of God

are planted by his grace,
They shal grow up, and flourish all
in our Gods holy place.

14

And in old age, when others fade,

they fruit stil forth shal bring:
They shal be sat, and ful of sap,
and ay be flourishing.

15

To shew that upright is the Lord,

he is a rock to me:
And he from all unrighteousnesse
is altogether free.
