God

Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didest deliuer them.

They called vpon thee, and were deliuered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.

He trusted in the Lord, let him deliuer him: let him saue him, seeing he loueth him.

But thou didest draw me out of ye wombe: thou gauest me hope, euen at my mothers breasts.

I was cast vpon thee, euen from ye wombe: thou art my God from my mothers belly.

My strength is dryed vp like a potsheard, and my tongue cleaueth to my iawes, and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

But be thou not farre off, O Lord, my strength: hasten to helpe me.

Saue me from the lyons mouth, and answere me in sauing me from the hornes of the vnicornes.

I wil declare thy Name vnto my brethren: in the middes of the Congregation will I praise thee, saying,

Prayse the Lord, ye that feare him: magnifie ye him, all the seede of Iaakob, and feare ye him, all the seede of Israel.

For he hath not despised nor abhorred ye affliction of the poore: neither hath he hid his face from him, but when he called vnto him, he heard.

My prayse shalbe of thee in the great Congregation: my vowes will I perfourme before them that feare him.

The poore shall eate and be satisfied: they that seeke after the Lord, shall prayse him: your heart shall liue for euer.

All the endes of the worlde shall remember themselues, and turne to the Lord: and all the kinreds of the nations shall worship before thee.

For the kingdome is the Lords, and he ruleth among the nations.

All they that be fat in the earth, shall eate and worship: all they that go downe into the dust, shall bowe before him, euen he that cannot quicken his owne soule.

Their seede shall serue him: it shalbe counted vnto the Lord for a generation.

They shall come, and shall declare his righteousnesse vnto a people that shall be borne, because he hath done it.

A Psalme of David. The Lord is my shepheard, I shall not want.

He maketh me to rest in greene pasture, and leadeth me by the still waters.

He restoreth my soule, and leadeth me in the paths of righteousnesse for his Names sake.

Yea, though I should walke through the valley of the shadowe of death, I will feare no euill: for thou art with me: thy rod and thy staffe, they comfort me.

Thou doest prepare a table before me in the sight of mine aduersaries: thou doest anoynt mine head with oyle, and my cuppe runneth ouer.

Doubtlesse kindnesse and mercie shall follow me all the dayes of my life, and I shall remaine a long season in the house of the Lord.

A Psalme of David. The earth is the Lordes, and all that therein is: the worlde and they that dwell therein.
