PSAL. L.

[1]

The mighty God, the Lord

hath spoken, and did call
The earth, from rising of the sun,
to where he hath his fall.

2

From out of Sion hill,

which, of excellency
And beautie the perfection is,
God shined gloriously.

3

Our God shal surely come,

keep silence shal not He;
Before him fire shal wast, great storms
shall round about him be.

4

Unto the heavens clear,

He from above shal call,
And to the earth likewise, that he
may judge his people all.

5

Together let my saints

unto me gathered be,
Those that by sacrifice have made
a covenant with me.

6

And then the heavens shall

his righteousnesse declare:
Because the Lord himself is he,
by whom men judged are.

7

My people Israel hear,

speak wil I from on hie,
Against thee I will testifie,
God, ev'n thy God am I,

8

I, for thy sacrifice,

no blame wi on thee lay,
Nor for burnt offrings, which to me
thou offredst every day.

9

I'le take no calf, nor goats,

from house or fold of thine:

10

For, beasts of forrests, cattell all

on thousand hils are mine.

11

The fowls on mountains high,

are all to me well known,
Wilde beasts, which in the fields do ly
ev'n they are all mine own.

12

Then, if I hungry were,

I would not tell it thee;
Because the world, and fulnesse all
thereof belongs to me.

13

Will I eat flesh of Buls?

or goats bloud drink will I?

14

Thanks offer thou to God, and pay

thy vows to the most hie;

15

And call upon me, when

in trouble thou shalt be,
I will deliver thee, and thou
my Name shalt glorifie,

16

But to the wicked man

God saith, my laws and truth
Shouldst thou declare? how darst thou tak
my covenant in thy mouth?

17

Sith thou instruction hates,



which should thy wayes direct.
And, fith my words behinde thy back
thou casts, and dost reject.

18

When thou a thief didst see,

with him thou didst consent;
And with the vile adulterers
partaker on thou went.

19

Thou giv'st thy mouth to ill,

thy tongue deceit doth frame;

20

Thō sits, & 'gainst thy brother speakst

thy mothers son does shame.

21

Because I silence kept,

while thou these things hast wrought;
That I was altogether like
thy self, hath been thy thought:
Yet I will thee reprove,
and set before thine eyes
In order ranked thy misdeeds,
and thine iniquities.

22

Now, ye that God forget,

this carefully consider;
Lest I in pieces tear you all,
and none can you deliver.

23

Who so doth offer praise,

me glorifies, and I
Will shew him Gods salvation,
that orders right his way.
