PSAL. CXVIII.

[1]

O praise the Lord, for he is good:

his mercy lasteth ever.

2

Let those of Israel now say,

his mercy faileth never.

3

Now let the house of Aaron say,

his mercy lasteth ever.

4

Let those that fear the Lord now say

his mercy faileth never.

5

I in destresse call'd on the Lord;

the Lord did answer me,
He in a large place did me set,
from trouble made me free.

6

The mighty Lord is on my side,

I wil not be afraid:
For any thing that man can do
I shal not be dismaid.

7

The Lord doth take my part wth them

that help to succour me:
Therefore on those that do me hate
I my desire shal see.

8

Better it is to trust in God,

then trust in mans defence:

9

Better to trust in God, then make

Princes our confidence.

10

The nations, joyning all in one,

did compasse me about:
But in the Lords most holy name
I shal them all root out.

11

They compast me about, I say,

they compast me about:
But in the Lords most holy Name
I shal them all root out.

12

Like Bees they compast me about:

like unto thorns that flame
They quenched are: for them shal I
destroy in Gods own Name,

13

Thou sore hast thrust, that I might fal,

but my Lord helped me.

14

God my salvation is become,

my strength and song is he.

15

In dwellings of the righteous

is heard the melody
Of joy & health: the Lords right hand
doth ever valiantly.

16

The right hand of the Mighty Lord

exalted is on hy:
The right hand of the Mighty Lord
doth ever valiantly.

17

I shal not die, but live, and shal

the works of God discover.

18

The Lord hath me chastised sore,

but not to death given over.

19

O set ye open unto me

the gates of righteousnesse:
Then wil I enter into them,
and I the Lord wil blesse.

20

This is the gate of God, by it

the just shal enter in

21

Thee wil I praise, for thō me heardst

and hast my safety bin,

22

That stone, is made head corner-stone,

which builders did dispise:

23

This is the doing of the Lord,

and wondrous in our eyes.

24

This is the day God made, in it

wee'l joy triumphantly.

25

Save now I pray thee, Lord, I pray

send now prosperity.

26

Blessed is he, in Gods great Name

that cometh us to save.
We, from the house, which to the Lord
pertains, you blessed have.

27

God is the Lord, who unto us

hath made light to arise:
Binde ye unto the altars horns,
with cords, the sacrifice.

28

Thou art my God, I'le thee exalt:

my God, I wil thee praise.

29

Give thanks to God, for he is good

his mercy lasts alwayes.
