MORNING PRAYER. 
 
 w 
 
 SENTENCES OF THE SCRIPTURES. 
 
 HEN the wicked man turn- ~§~^EARLYbeloved brethren, the 
 
 eth away from his wicked 
 ness that he hath committed, and 
 doeth that which is lawful and 
 right, he shall save his soul alive. 
 
 I acknowledge my transgres- 
 sions, and my sin is ever before me. 
 
 Hide thy face from my sins, and 
 blot out all mine iniquities. 
 
 The sacrifices of God are a bro 
 ken spirit: a broken and a contrite 
 heart, O God, thou wilt not de- 
 spise. 
 
 Rend your heart, and not your 
 garments, and turn unto the Lord 
 your God: for he is gracious and 
 
 merciful, slow to anger, and of when we assemble and meet to- 
 
 great kindness, and repenteth him 
 of the evil. 
 
 To the Lord our God belong 
 mercies and forgivenesses, though 
 we have rebelled against him : 
 neither have we obeyed the voice 
 of the Lord our God, to walk in 
 his laws which he set before us 
 
 O Lord, correct me, but with! as many as are here present, to ac- 
 
 judgment : not in thine anger, lest 
 thou bring me to nothing. 
 
 Repent ye ; for the Kingdom of 
 Heaven is at hand 
 
 I will arise, and go to my father, 
 and will say unto him, Father, I 
 have sinned against heaven, and 
 before thee, and am no more wor- 
 thy to be called thy son. 
 
 Enter not into judgment with 
 thy servant, O Lord: for in thy 
 sight shall no man living be justi- 
 fied. 
 
 If we say that we have no sin, 
 we deceive ourselves, and the truth 
 is not in us : bu:, if we confess 
 our 6ins, he is faithful and just to 
 
 Scripture moveth us in sun- 
 dry places to acknowledge and con- 
 fess our manifold sins and wicked- 
 ness ; and that we should not dis- 
 semble nor cloke them before the 
 face of Almighty God our hea- 
 venly Father; but confess them 
 with an humble, lowly, penitent, 
 and obedient heart; to the end that 
 we may obtain forgiveness of the 
 same, by his infinite goodness and 
 mercy. And although we ought 
 at all times humbly to acknow- 
 ledge our sins before God ; yet 
 ought we most chiefly so to do, 
 
 gether, to render thanks for the 
 great benefits that we have received 
 at his hands, to set forth his most 
 worthy praise, to hear his most 
 holy Word, and to ask those things 
 which are requisite and necessary, 
 as well for the body as the soul. 
 Wherefore I pray and beseech you, 
 
 company me with a pure heart, and 
 
 humble voice, unto the throne of 
 
 the heavenly grace, saying after 
 
 me; 
 
 ^ A general Confession to be said of 
 
 the whole Congregation after the 
 
 Minister, all kneeling. 
 
 ALmighty and most merciful 
 Father ; We have erred, and 
 strayed from thy ways like lost 
 sheep. We have followed too 
 much the devices and desires of 
 our own hearts. We have offended 
 against thy holy laws. We have 
 left undone those things which we 
 ought to have done; and we have 
 done those things which we ought 
 
 forgive us our sins, and to cleanse not to have done; and there is no 
 us from all unrighteousness, A ? health 
 
Morning 
 health in us. But thou, O Lord, 
 have mercy upon us, miserable of- 
 fenders. Spare thou them, O God, 
 which confess their faults. Re- 
 store thou them that are penitent ; 
 according to thy promises declared 
 unto mankind in Christ Jesu our 
 Lord. And grant, O most merci- 
 ful Father, for his sake ; That we 
 may hereafter live a godly, righte- 
 ous, and sober life, To the glory 
 of thy holy Name. Amen. 
 \ The Absclut ion, or Remission of sins, 
 to be pronounced by the Priest alone, 
 standing ; the people still kneeling. 
 
 ALmighty God, the Father of 
 our Lord Jesus Christ, who 
 desireth not the death of a sinner, 
 but rather that he may turn from 
 his wickedness, and live; and hath 
 given power, and commandment, 
 to his Ministers, to declare and 
 pronounce to his people, being pe- 
 nitent, the Absolution and Remis- 
 sion of their sins : He pardoneth 
 and absolveth all them that truly 
 repent, and unfeigned! y believe his 
 holy Gospel. Wherefore let us 
 beseech him to grant us true re- 
 pentance, and his holy Spirit, that 
 those things may please him, which 
 we do at this present ; and that the 
 rest of our life hereafter may be 
 pure, and holy ; so that at the last 
 we may come to his "eternal joy; 
 through Jesus Christ our Lord. 
 J The people shall answer here, and at 
 the end of all other prayers, Amen. 
 f Then the Minister shall kneel, and 
 say the Lord's Prayer with an 
 audible voice; the people also kneel- 
 ing, and repeating it with him, 
 both here, and wheresoever else it 
 is tcsed in Divine Service. 
 
 OUR Father, which art in Hea- 
 ven, Hallowed be thy Name. 
 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be

 done in Earth, As it is in Heaven. 
 Give us this day our daily bread. 
 And forgive us our trespasses, As 
 we forgive them that trespass a- 
 gainst us. And lead us not into 
 temptation; But deliver us from 
 evil : For thine is the kingdom, 
 and the power, and the glory, for 
 ever and ever. Am~n. 
 
 Pr. O Lord, open thou our lips. 
 
 Answer* And our mouth shall 
 shew forth thy praise. 
 
 Priest. O God, make speed to 
 save us. 
 
 Answer. O Lord, make haste 
 to help us. 
 
 \ Here all standing up, the Priest 
 shall say, 
 
 Glory be to the Father, and to 
 the Son : and to the Holy Ghost ; 
 
 Answer. As it was in the be- 
 ginning, is now, and ever shall be : 
 world without end. Amen. 
 
 Priest. Praise ye the Lord. 
 
 Answer. The Lord's Name be

 Venite exultemus. Psalm 95. 
 
 OCome, let us sing unto the 
 Lord : let Us heartily rejoice 
 in the strength of our salvation. 
 
 Let us come before his presence 
 with thanksgiving : and shew our- 
 selves glao in him with Fsalms. 
 
 For the Lord is a great God : 
 and a great King above all gods. 
 
 In his hand are all the corners 
 of the earth : and the strength of 
 the hills is his also. 
 
 The sea is his, and he made it : 
 and his hands prepared the dry 
 land* 
 
 O come, let us worship, and fall 
 down : and kneel before the Lord 
 our Maker. 
 
 For he is the Lord our God : 
 and we are the people of his pas- 
 ture, and the sheep of his hand. 
 
 To 
 
Morning Prayer. 
 
 To day if ye will hear his voice, 
 harden not your hearts : as in the 
 provocation, and as in the day of 
 temptation in the wilderness; 
 
 When your fathers tempted me : 
 proved me, and saw my works. 
 
 Forty years long was I grieved 
 with this generation, and said : It is 
 a people that do err in their hearts, 
 for they have not known my ways. 
 
 Unto whom I sware in my 
 wrath : that they should not enter 
 into my rest. 
 
 Glory be to the Father, &c. 
 
 As it was in the beginning, &c. 
 5 Then shall follow the Psalms in 
 
 order as they are appointed. And 
 
 at the end of every Psalm through 
 
 out the Tear, and likewise at the 
 
 end of Benedicite, Benedictus, 
 
 Magnificat, and Nunc dimittis, 
 
 shall be repeated, 
 
 Glory be to the Father, &c. 
 
 As it was in the beginning, &c. 
 
 Te Deum Laudamus.

 forter. 
 
 Thou art the King of Glory : 
 O Christ. 
 
 Thou art the everlasting Sen : 
 of the Father. 
 
 When thou tookest upon thee 
 to deliver man : thou didst not 
 abhor the Virgin's womb. 
 
 When thou hadst overcome the 
 sharpness of death : thou didst 
 open the Kingdom of Heaven to 
 all believers. 
 
 Thou sittest at the right hand of 
 God : in the Glory of tne Father. 
 
 We believe that thou shalt come : 
 to be our Judge. 
 
 We therefore pray thee, help 
 thy .servants : whom thou hast re- 
 deemed with thy precious blood. 
 
 Make them to be numbered 
 Iwith thy Saints : in glory ever- 
 
 acknowledge thee to be the j lasting.

 Benedictus. St. Luke 1. 68. 
 
 E Leased be the Lord God of Is- 
 rael : for he hath visited, and 
 redeemed his people; 
 
 And hath raised up a mighty 
 salvation for us : in the house of 
 his servant David ; 
 
 As he spake by the mouth of 
 his holy Prophets: which have 
 been since the world began ; 
 
 That we should be saved from 
 our enemies : and from the hands 
 of all that hate us ; 
 
 To perform the mercy promised 
 to our forefathers : and to remem- 
 ber his holy Covenant ; 
 
 To perform the oath which he 
 sware to our forefather Abraham : 
 that he would give us ; 
 
 That we being delivered out of! 
 the hand of our enemies : might 
 serve him without fear ; 
 
 In holiness and righteousness be- 
 fore him : all the days of our life. | 
 
 And thou, Child, shalt be called 
 the Prophet of the Highest: for! 
 thou shalt go before the face of the i 
 Lord to prepare his ways : 
 
 To give knowledge of salvation] 
 unto his people : for the remission 
 of their sins, 
 
 Through the tender mercy of 
 Our God : whereby the day spring 
 from on high hath visited us ; 
 
 To give light to them that sit in 
 darkness, and in the shadow of 
 death : and to guide our feet into 
 the way of peace. 
 
 Glory be to the Father, &c.

 Pilate, Was crucified, dead, and 
 buried, He descended into hell ;

 of God the Father Almighty; 
 From thence he shall come to 
 judge the quick and the dead.

 The Creed of St. Athanasius. 
 
 WHosoever will be saved : be- 
 fore all things it is necessary 
 that he hold the Catholick Faith. 
 
 Which Faith except every one do 
 keep whole and undefiled : without 
 doubt he shall perish everlastingly. 
 
 And the Catholick Faith is this : 
 that we worship one God in 
 Trinity, and Trinity in Unity ; 
 
 Neither confounding the Per- 
 sons : nor dividing the Substance. 
 
 For there is one Person of the 
 Father, another of the Son : and 
 another of the Holy Ghost. 
 
 But the Godhead of the Father, 
 of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, 
 is all one: the Glory equal, the 
 Majesty co-eternal. 
 
 Such as the Father is, such is the 
 
 Soa ; and such is the Holy Ghost. 
 
 A 6 The 
 
The Creed of S 
 
 The Father vmcreate, the Son 
 increate : and the Holy Ghost un- 
 create. 
 
 The Father incomprehensible, 
 the Son incomprehensible: and, 
 the Holy Ghost incomprehensible. 
 
 The Father eternal, the Son! 
 eternal : and the Holy Ghost etcr-j 
 nal. 
 
 And yet they are not three eter- 
 nals : but one eternal. 
 
 As also there are not three in- 
 comprehensibles, nor three uncre- 
 ated : but one uncreated, and one 
 incomprehensible. 
 
 So likewise the Father is Al- 
 mighty, the Son Almighty : and 
 the Holy Ghost Almighty. 
 
 And yet they are not three Al- 
 mighties : but one Almighty. 
 
 So the Father is God, the Son is 
 <2od : and the Holy Ghost is God. 
 
 And yet they are not three 
 Gods": but one God. 
 
 So-likewise the Father is Lord, 
 the Son Lord : and the Koly Ghcst 
 Lord. 
 
 And yet not three Lords: but 
 one Lord. 
 
 For like as we are compelled by 
 ihe Christian verity : to acknow- 
 ledge every Person by himself to be 
 God and Lord ; 
 
 So are we forbidden by the Ca- 
 tholick Religion : to say, There be 
 three Gods, or three Lords. 
 
 The Father is made of none : 
 neither created, nor begotten. 
 
 The Son is of the Father alone : 
 not made, nor created, but be- 
 gotten. 
 
 The Holy Ghost is of the Father 
 and of the Son : neither made, nor 
 created, nor begotten, but pro- 
 ceeding. 
 
 So there is one Father, not three 
 Fathers j one Son, not three Sons : 
 
 t» At nana i i 
 
 one Holy Ghost, not three Holy 
 Ghosts. 
 
 And in this Trinity none is a- 
 fore, or after other : none is great- 
 er, or les3 than another ; 
 
 But the whole three Persons are 
 co-eternal together : and co-equal. 
 
 So that in all things, as is afore- 
 said : the Unity inTiinity, and the 
 Trinity in Unity is to be wor- 
 shipped. 
 
 He therefore that will be saved : 
 must thus think of die Trinity. 
 
 Furthermore, it is necessary to 
 everlasting salvation : that he also 
 believe rightly the Incarnation of 
 our Lord Jesus Christ. 
 
 For the right Faith is, that we 
 believe and confess : that our Lord 
 Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is 
 God and Man ; 
 
 God, of the substance of the Fa- 
 ther, begotten before the worlds : 
 and Man, of the substance of his 
 Mother, bom in the world ; 
 
 Perfect God, and perfect Man : 
 of a reasonable soul and human 
 flesh subsisting ; 
 
 Equal to the Father, as touch- 
 ing his Godhead : and inferior to 
 the Father, as touching his Man- 
 hood. 
 
 Who although he be God and 
 Man : yet he is not two, but one 
 Christ ; 
 
 One ; not by conversion of the 
 Godhead into flesh : but by taking 
 of the Manhood into God ; 
 
 One altogether; not by confu- 
 sion of substance : but by Unity of 
 Person. 
 
 For as the reasonable soul and 
 flesh is one man : so God and Man 
 is one Christ ; 
 
 Who suffered for our salvation : 
 descended into Hell, rose again the 
 third day from the dead, 
 
 Be 
 
The Litany 
 
 He ascended into Heaven, he 
 sitteth on the right hand of" the 
 Father, God Almighty : from 
 whence he shall come to judge the 
 quick and the dead. 
 
 At whose coming all men shall 
 rise again with their bodies : and 
 shall give account for their own 
 works. 
 
 And they that have done good 
 
 shall go into life everlasting : and 
 they that have done evil into ever- 
 lasting fire. 
 
 This is the Catholick Faith : 
 which except a man believe faith- 
 fully, he cannot be saved. 
 
 Glory be to the Father, and to 
 the Son, and to the Holy Ghost ; 
 
 As it was in the beginning, is 
 now, and ever shall be : world 
 without end. Amen.

 THE 
 
 Question. 
 
 WHAT is your Name ? 
 Answer. N. or M* 
 
 Q. Who gave you this Name? 
 
 A. My Godfathers and God- 
 mothers in my Baptism ; wherein 
 I was made a member of Christ, 
 the child of God, and an inheritor 
 of the kingdom of heaven. 
 
 Q. What did your Godfathers 
 ancT Godmothers then for you ? 
 
 A. They did promise and vow 
 three things in my name. First, that 
 I should renounce the devil and 
 all his works, the pomps and va- 
 nity of this wicked world, and all 
 the sinful lusts of the flesh. Se- 
 condly, that I should believe all the 
 Articles of the Christian Faith. 
 And thirdly, that I should keep 
 God's holy will and command- 
 ments, ana walk in the same all 
 the days of my life. 
 
 Q. Dost thou not think that 
 thou art bound to believe, and to do 
 as they have promised for thee ? 
 
 A. Yes verily ; and by God's 
 help so I will. And I heartily thank 
 our heavenly Father, that he hath 
 called me to this state of salvation, 
 through Jesus Christ our Saviour. 
 And I pray unto God to give me

 his grace, that I may continue in 
 the same unto my life's end. 
 
 Catechist. Rehearse the Articles 
 of thy Belief. 
 
 Answer. 
 Believe in God the Father Al- 
 mighty, Maker of heaven and 
 earth : 
 
 And in Jesus Christ his only Son 
 our Lord. Who was conceived by 
 the Holy Ghost, Born of the Virgin 
 Mary, Suffered under Pontius Pi- 
 late, Was crucified, dead, and bu- 
 ried, He descended into hell ; The 
 third day he rose again from the 
 dead, He ascended into heaven, 
 And sitteth at the right ha; id of 
 God the Father Almighty ; From 
 thence he shall come to judge the 
 quick and the dead. 
 
 I believe in the Holy Ghost; 
 The holy Catholick Church; The 
 Communion of Saints ; The For- 
 giveness of sins ; The Resurrec- 
 tion of the body ; And the Life 
 everlasting. Amen. 
 
 g. What dost thou chiefly learn 
 lese Articles of thy Belief? 
 A. First, I learn to believe in 
 God the Father, who hath made 
 me, and all the world. Secondly,

 And forgive us our trespasses, As 
 we forgive them that trespass

 ALMIGHTY God,unto Whom 
 all hearts be open, all desires j

 our hearts by the inspiration of: 
 thy Holy Spirit, that we may per-' 
 fectly love thee, and worthily mag- 1

 the likeness of* any thing that is in ! 
 heaven above, or in the earth be- 
 neath, or in the water under the ! 
 
 earth. Thou shalt not bow down 
 to them, nor worship them : for I 
 the Lord thy God am a jealous 
 God, and visit the sins of the fa-

 third and fourth generation of 
 them that hate me, and shew 
 m; rev unto thousands in them

 Lord thy God. In it thou shalt do 
 no manner of work, thou, and thy 
 son, and thy daughter, thy man- 
 servant, and thy maid-servant, thy 
 cattle, and the stranger that is 
 within thy gates. For in six days 
 the Lord made heaven and earth,

 and rested the s. venth da^: where*

 day, and hallowed it. 
 
 People. Lord, have mercy upon

 but, Lord, how long wilt thou 
 punish me ?

 5 For in death no man remcm- 
 bereth thee ; and who will give 
 thee thanks in the pit ?

 every night wash I my bed : and 
 water my couch with my tears. 
 
 7 My beauty is gone for very 
 trouble : and worn away because 
 of all mine enemies.

 work vanity : for the Lord hath 
 heard the voice of rav weeping.

 4 I sought the Lord, and he 
 heard me : yea, he delivered me 
 out of ail my fear. 
 
 5 They had an eye unto him,

 the way against them that perse- 
 cute me : say unto my soul, I am 
 thy salvation. 
 
 4 Let them be confounded, and 
 put to shame, that seek after my 
 soul : let them be turned back, and 
 brought to confusion, that imagine 
 mischief for me. 
 
 5 Let them be as the dust be-

 the Lord scattering them. 
 
 6 Let their way be dark and

 7 For they have privily laid their 
 net to destroy me without a cause : 
 yea, even without a cause have they 
 
 . made a pit for my soul. 
 
 8 Let a sudden destruction come 
 upon him unawares, and his net, 
 that he hath laid privily, catch 
 himself: that he may fall into his

 Evening Prayer. Psalm 53. 
 
 rjlHE foolish body hath said in 
 
 JL his heart : There is no God. 
 
 2 Corrupt are they, and become 
 abominable in their wickedness : 
 there is none that doeth good. 
 
 3 God looked down from hea- 
 ven upon the children of men : to 
 see if there were any, that would 
 understand, and seek after God. 
 
 4 But they are all gone out of 
 the way, they are altogether be- 
 come abominable : there is also 
 none that doeth good, no not one. 
 
 5 Are not they without under- 
 standing that work wickedness : 
 eating up my people as if they 
 would eat bread? they have not 
 called upon God. 
 
 6 They were afraid whe 
 
 fear was : for God hath broken 
 the bones of him that besieged 
 thee ; thou hast put them to con- 
 fusion, because God hath despised 
 them. 
 
 7 Oh, that the salvation were 
 given unto Israel out of Sion : Oh, 
 that the Lord would deliver his 
 people out of captivity ! 
 
 8 Then should- Jacob rejoice : 
 and Israel should be right glad. 
 
 Psalm 54.

 Name's sake : and avenge me

 2 Hear my prayer, O God : 
 and hearken unto the words of my 
 mouth. 
 
 3 For strangers are risen up a- 
 gainst me : and tyrants, which 
 have not God before their eyes, 
 seek after my soul. 
 
 4 Behold, God is my helper: 
 the Lord is with them that uphold 
 my soul. 
 
 5 He shall reward evil unta mine 
 enemies : destroy thou them in 
 thy truth. 
 
 6 An offering of a free heart will 
 
 1 give thee, and praise thy Name, 
 O Lord ; because it is so comfort-

 , wings like a dove : for then would 
 I flee away and be at rest. 
 
 7 Lo, men would I get me away 
 far off : and remain in the wil- 
 derness. 
 
 8 I would make haste to escape : 
 because of the stormy wind and 
 tempest. 
 
 9 Destroy their tongues, O 
 Lord, and divide them : for I have 
 spied unrighteousness and strife in 
 the city. 
 
 10 Day and night they go about 
 within the walls thereof: mischief 
 also and sorrow are in the midst ofit. 
 
 I I Wickedness is therein: deceit 
 and guile go not out of" their streets. 
 
 12 For it is not an open enemy, 
 that hath done me this dishonour : 
 for then I could have borne it. 
 
 13. Neither was it mine adver- 
 sary, that did magnify himself a- 
 gainst me : for then peradventure 
 I would have hid my self from him. 
 
 14 But it was even thou, my 
 companion : my guide, and mine 
 own familiar friend. 
 
 15 We took sweet counsel to- 
 gether : and walked in the house 
 of God as friends. 
 
 1 6 Let death come hastily upon 
 them, and let them go down quick 
 into hell : for wickedness is in 
 their dwellings, and among them.

 19 It is he that hath delivered 
 my soul in peace from the battle 
 that was against me : for there 
 were many with me. 
 
 20 Yea, even God, that endur- 
 eth for ever, shall hear me, and 
 bring them, down : for they will 
 not turn, nor fear God. 
 
 2 1 He laid his hands upon such 
 as be at peace with him : and he 
 brake his covenant. 
 
 22 The words of his mouth 
 were softer than butter, having 
 war in his heart : his words were 
 smoother than oil, and yet be they 
 very swords. 
 
 23 O cast thy burden upon the 
 Lord, and he shall nourish thee : 
 and shall not suffer the righteous 
 to fall for ever. 
 
 24 And as for them : thou, O 
 God, shalt bring them into the pit 
 of destruction.

 ceitful men shall not live out half 
 their days : nevertheless, my trust 
 shall be in thee, O Lord.

 all that they imagine is to do me 
 evil. 
 
 6 They hold all together, and 
 keep themselves close : and mark 
 my steps, when they lay wait for 
 my soul. 
 
 7 Shall they escape for their 
 wickedness : Thou, 6 God, in thy 
 displeasure shalt cast them down. 
 
 8 Thou tellest my fhttings ; put 
 my tears into thy bottle : are not 
 these things noted in thy book ? 
 
 "Whensoever I call upon thee, 
 then shall mine enemies be put to 
 flight : this I know ; for God is on 
 my side. 
 
 10 In God's word will I rejoice : 
 in the Lord's word will I com- 
 fort me. 
 
 1 1 Yea, in God have I put my 
 trust : I will not be afraid what 
 man can do unto me. 
 
 12 Unto thee, O God, will I 
 pay my vows : unto thee will J 
 give thanks. 
 
 13 For thou hast delivered my 
 "soul from death, and my feet from 
 falling : that I may walk before 
 God in the light of the living. 
 
 Psalm 57. 
 
 be merciful unto me, for my \ 
 soul trtisteth in thee : and under 
 the shadow of thy wings shall be 
 my refuge, until this tyranny be 
 over-past. 
 
 2 I will call unto the most high 
 God : even unto the God that 
 shall perform the aiuse which I 
 have in hand. 
 
 3 He shall send from heaven : 
 and save me from the reproof of 
 'him that would eat me up. 
 
 4 God shall send forth his mercy 
 hsd truth : my soul is among lions. 
 
 5 And I lie even among the chil- 
 dren of men, that arc set on fire : 
 
 whose teetli arc speais and anov. s, 
 and their tongue a sharp sword. 
 
 <3 Set up thyself, O God, above 
 the heavens : and thy glory above 
 all the earth. 
 
 7 They have laid a net for my 
 feet, arid pressed down my sOnl : 
 they have digged a pit before me, 
 and are fallen into the midst of it 
 themselves. 
 
 8 My heart is fixed, O God, 
 ray heart is fixed : I will sing, and 
 give praise. 
 
 <» Awake up, my glory ; awake, 
 lute and harp : I myselfwill awake 
 right early. 
 
 10 I will give thanks unto thee, 
 
 Lord, among the people : and 
 
 1 will sing unto thee among the 
 nations. 
 
 1 1 For the greatness of tlvy 
 mercv reacheth unto the heavens : 
 and thy truth unto the clouds. 
 
 12 Set up thyself, O God, a- 
 bove the heavens : and thy glory 
 above all the earth. 
 
 Psalm 58. 
 
 \RE your minds set upon

 the earth : and 
 your hands deal with wickedness. 
 
 3 The ungodly are froward, 
 even from their mother's womb : 
 as soon as they are born, they go 
 astray? and speak lies. 
 
 4 Thcv are as venomous as the 
 poison of a seipent : even like the 
 deaf adder that stoppeth her ears ; 
 
 5 Which refuseth to hear the 
 voice of the charmer : charm he 
 never so wisely. 
 
 6 Break their teeth, O God, in 
 their mouths; smite the jaw-bones 
 of the lions, O Lord : let them 
 
 fall 
 
Eleventh Dag of the Month. 
 
 fall away tik/e water that runneth 
 apace ; and when they shoot their 
 arrows let them be rooted out. 
 
 7 Let them consume away like 
 a snail, and be like the untimely 
 fruit of a woman : and let them 
 not see the sun. 
 
 8 Or ever your pots be made hot 
 
 12 For the vsin of their mouth, 
 and for the words of their lips, 
 they shall be taken in their pride : 
 and why ? their preaching is of 
 
 to thee : for thou ait fche God of 
 my refuge. 
 
 10 God sheweth me hi:; goodness 
 plenteously : and God shall let me 
 see my desire upon mine enemies.

 ple forget it : but scatter them a- 
 broad among the people, and put. 
 
 with thorns : so let indignation vex I them down, O Lord, our defence.

 9 The righteous shall rejoice 
 when he seeth the vengeance : he 
 shall wash his footsteps in the 
 blood of the ungodly. 
 
 10 So that a man shall say, Ye- 
 rilv there is a reward for the right- 
 eous : doubtless there is a God 
 that judgeth the earth. 
 
 Evening Prayer. Psalm 59. 
 
 )ELIVER me from mine ene- 
 mies, O God : defend me 
 from them that rise up against me. 
 
 2 O deliver me iiom the 
 '/•'eked doers : and save me from 
 Che blood-thirsty men. 
 
 3 For lo, . they lie waiting for 
 tfiy soul : the mighty men are ga 
 
 _ -/hy 
 cursing and lies. 
 
 13 Consume them in thy wrath, 
 consume them, that they may 
 perish : and know that it is God 
 that ruleth in Jacob, and unto the 
 ends of the world. 
 
 14 And in the evening they will 
 return : grin like a dog, and will go 
 about trie city. 
 
 1 5 They will run here and there 
 for meat : and grudge if they be 
 not satisfied. 
 
 1 6 As for me, I will sing of thy 
 power, and will praise thy mercy - 
 
 thered against me, without any ['betimes in the morning : for thou 
 
 hast been my defence and refuge 
 in the day of my trouble. 
 
 17 Unto thee, O my strength, 
 
 will I sing : ior thou, O God, ait 
 
 my refuge, and my merciful GoJ. 
 
 Psalm 63. 
 
 GOD, thou hast east usout, 
 
 and scattered us abroad : 
 
 thou hast also been displeased : O 
 
 turn thee unto us again.- 
 
 2 Thou hast moved the land, 
 and divided it : heal the sores 
 thereof, for it shaketh. 
 
 3 Thou hast shewed thy people 
 heavy thing-, : thou hast given us 
 a drink of deadly wine. 
 
 4 Thou hast 'given a token for 
 such as fear thee : that they may 
 triumph because of the truth. 
 
 D 2 5 There- 
 
 offence or fault of me, O Lord. 
 
 4 They run and prepare them- 
 selves without my fault : arise thou 
 therefore to help me, and behold. 
 
 5 Stand up, O Lord God of 
 hosts, thou God of ferae!, to visit 
 all the heathen : and be not mer- 
 ciful unto them that offend of ma-! 
 Hcious wickedness. 
 
 6 They go to and fro in the 
 evening : they grin like a dog, and 
 run about through the city. 
 
 7 Behold they speak with their 
 mouth, and swords are in their 
 lips : for who doth hear ? 
 
 8 But thou, O Lord, shalt have 
 them in derision : and thou shalt 
 laugh all the heathen to scorn. 
 
 9 My strength will I ascribe un- 
 
Twelfth Day of the Month. 
 
 5 Therefore were thy beloved 
 delivered : help me with thy light 
 hand, and hear me. 
 
 6 God hath .spoken in his holi- 
 ness, I will rejoice, and divide 
 Sichem : and mete out the valley 
 of Succoth. 
 
 7 -Gileadis mine, and Manasses is 
 mine : Ephraim also is the strength 
 of my head; Judah is my lawgiver; 
 
 8 Moab is my wash-pot; over 
 Edom will I cast out my shoe : 
 Philistia, be thou glad of me. 
 
 9 Who will lead me into the 
 strong city : who will bring me 
 into Edom ? 
 
 10 Hast not thou cast us out, O 
 God : wilt not thou, O God, go 
 out with our hosts ? 
 
 1 1 O be thou our help in trou- 
 ble : for vain is the help of man. 
 
 12 Through God will we do 
 great acts : for it is he that shall 
 tread down our enemies. 
 
 Psalm 61. 
 
 HEAR my crying, O God: 
 give ear unto my prayer. 
 
 2 From the ends of the earth 
 will I call upon thee : when my 
 heart is in heaviness. 
 
 3 O set me up upon the rock that 
 is higher than I : for thou hast 
 Been my hope, and a strong tower 
 for me against the enemy. 
 
 4 I will dwell in thy tabernacle 
 for ever : and my trust shall be 
 under the covering of thy wings. 
 
 5 For thou, O Lord, hast heard 
 my desires : and hast given an 
 heritage unto those that fear thy. 
 Name. 
 
 6 Thou shalt grant die King a 
 long life : that his years may en- 
 dure throughout all generations. 
 
 7 He shall dwell before God for 
 ever : O prepare thy loving mercy 
 and faithfulness, that they may 
 preserve him. 
 
 8 So will I alway sing praise 
 unto thy Name : that I may daily- 
 perform my vows. 
 
 Morning Prayer. Psalm 62. 
 
 MY soul truly waiteth still up- 
 on God : for of him cometh 
 my salvation. 
 
 2 He verily is my strength and 
 my salvation : he is my defence, 
 so that I shall not greatly fall. 
 
 3 How long will ye imagine 
 mischief against every man : ve 
 shall be slain all the sort of you ; 
 yea, as a tottering wall shall ye be, 
 and like a broken hedge. 
 
 4 Their device is onlv how to 
 put him out whom God will ex- 
 alt : their delight is in lies ; they 
 give good words with their mouth, 
 but curse with their heart. 
 
 5 Nevertheless, my soul, wait 
 thou still upon God : for my hope 
 is in him. 
 
 6 He truly is my strength and 
 my salvation : he is my defence, 
 so that I shall not fall. 
 
 7 In God is my health, and my 
 glory : the rock of my might, and 
 in God is my trust. 
 
 8 O put your trust in him alway, 
 ve people : pour out your hearts 
 oefore him, for God is our hope. 
 
 9 As for the' children of men, 
 they are but vanity : the children 
 of men are deceitful upon the 
 weights, they are altogether lighter 
 than vanity itself. 
 
 10 O trust not in wrong and 
 robbery, give not yourselves unto 
 vanity : if riches increase, set not 
 your heart upon them. 
 
 11 God spake once, and twice 
 I have also heard the same : That 
 power belongeth unto God ; 
 
 12 And that thou, Lord, art 
 merciful : for thou rewardest every 
 man according to his work. 
 
 Psalm 
 
Twelfth Day of the Month. 
 Psalm* 63. | 3 Who have whet their tongue

 2 My soul thirsteth for thee, my \ 4 That they may privily shoot 
 flesh also longeth after thee : in a 
 
 at him that is perfect : suddenly 
 do they hit him, and fear not. 
 ■ 5 They encourage themselves 
 in mischief: and commune' among 
 themselves how they may lav 
 snares, and say, that no man shall 
 see them. 
 
 6 They imagine wickedness, 
 and practise it : that they keep 
 secret among themselves, every 
 man in the deep of his heart. 
 
 7 But God shall suddenly shoot 
 at them with a swift arrow : that 
 they shall be wounded. 
 
 8 Yea, their awn tongues shall 
 make them fall : insomuch that 
 whoso seeth them shall laugh them 
 to scorn. 
 
 And all men that see itshall sav, 
 This hath God done : for they shall 
 perceive that it is his work. 
 
 10 The righteous shall rejoice 
 in the Lord, and put his trust in 
 him : and all thev that are true of 
 heart shall be glad.

 of my soul : they shall go under

 1 1 Let them fall upon the edge 
 of the sword: that they may be a

 God ; all they also that swear by 
 him shall be commended : for the 
 mouth of them that speak lies shall 
 be stopped.

 makest the outgoings of the morn-

 9 Thou visitest the earth, and 
 blessest it. : thou makest it very 
 plenteous. 
 
 10 The river of God is full of 
 water : thou preparest their corn, 
 for so thou providest for the earth. 
 
 1 1 Thou waterest her furrows, 
 ihou cendest rain into the little 
 valleys thereof : thou makest it 
 soft with the drops of rain, and 
 blessest the increase of it. 
 
 12 Thou crownestthe year with 
 thy goodness : and thy clouds drop

 13 They shall drop upon the 
 dwellings of the wilderness : and 
 the little hills shall rejoice on

 4 O come hither, and behold 
 the works of God : how wonder-

 the water on foot; there did we 
 rejoice thereof.

 and such as will not believe shall

 7 O praise our God, ye people : 
 and make the voice of his praise 
 to be heard ; 
 
 8 Who holdeth our soul in life : 
 and suffereth not our feet to slip. 
 
 9 For thou, O God, hast proved 
 us : thou also hast tried us, like as 
 silver is tried. 
 
 10 Thou broughtest us into the 
 snare : and laidest trouble upon 
 our loins. 
 
 1 1 Thou sufferedst men to ride 
 over our heads : we went through 
 fire and water, and thou brought-

 that I sink not : O let me be de-

 and out of the deep waters. 
 
 16 Let not the water-flood 
 drown me, neither let the deep 
 swallow me up : and let not the 
 pit shut her mouth upon me.

 loving-kindness is comfortable : 
 turn thee unto me according to 
 the multitude of thy mercies. 
 
 • 1 8 And hide not thy face from 
 thy servant, for I am in trouble : 
 O haste thee, and hear me. 
 
 1 9 Draw nigh unto my soul, and 
 save it ; O deliver me, because of 
 mine enemies. 
 
 20 Thou hast known my re- 
 proof, my shame, and my dishon- 
 
 our : mine adversaries are all in 
 thy sight. 
 
 21 Thy rebuke hath broken my 
 heart ; I am full ot" heaviness : « I 
 looked for some- to have pity on 
 me, but there was no man, neither

 rg -RULY God is loving unto 
 .1 Israel : even unto such as 
 are of a clean heart. 
 
 2 Nevertheless, my feet were 
 pJmost gone : my treadings had 
 well-nigh slipt. 
 
 S And why ? I was grieved at 
 the wicked : I do also see the an 
 godly in such prosperity. 
 
 4 For they are in' no peril of 
 death : but are lusty and strong. 
 
 5 They come in no misfortune 
 like other folk : neither" are they 
 plagued like other men. 
 
 6 And this is the cause that 
 they are so holden with pride ; 
 and" overwhelmed with cruelty. 
 
 7 Their eyes swell with fatness : 
 and they do even what thev lust. 
 
 8 They corrupt other, and speak 
 of wicked blasphemy : their talk- 
 ing is against the Most High. 
 
 9 For they stretch forth their 
 mouth unto the heaven .: and their jceive me with glory, 
 torjgue goeth through the world. 24 Whom have I in heaven but

 17 Namely, how thou do3t set 
 them in slippery places : and cast- 
 est them down, and desl 
 them. 
 
 18 Oh, how suddenly do they 
 consume : perish, and come to a 
 fearful end ; 
 
 19 Yea, even like as a dream 
 when one awaketh : so shak thou 
 make their image to vanish out of 
 the city. 
 
 20 Thus my heart was grieved : 
 and it went even through my reins. 
 
 21 So foolish was I, and ig- 
 norant : even as it were a beast 
 before thee. 
 
 22 Nevertheless, I am alway by 
 thee : for thou hast holden me by 
 my right hand. 
 
 23 Thou shalt guide me with 
 thy counsel : and after that re-

 25 My flesh and my heart fail- 
 cth : but God is the strength of 
 my heart, and my portion for ever. 
 . 26 For lo, they that forsake 
 these jsrosper in the world, and I thee shall perish : thou hast de- 
 nave riches in possession : and stroyed all them that commit for- 
 
 they no small advantage.

 Morning Prayer. 
 Psalm 79. 
 
 Oriou, the heathen are come 
 into thine inheritance : thy 
 holy temple have they defiled, and 
 made Jerusalem an heap of stones. 
 
 2 The dead bodies of thy servants 
 have they given to be meat unto 
 the fowls of the air : and the flesh 
 of thy saints unto the beasts of 
 the land. 
 
 3 Their blood have they shed 
 like water on every side of Je- 
 rusalem : and there is no man to 
 bury them. 
 
 4 We are become an open shame 
 to our enemies : a very scorn and 
 derision unto them that are round 
 about us. 
 
 5 Lord, how long wilt thou be 
 angry : shall thy jealousy burn like 
 lire for ever ? 
 
 6 Pour out thine indignation 
 upon the heathen that have not 
 known thee : and upon the king- 
 doms that have not called upon 
 thy Name. 
 
 7 For they have devoured Ja- 
 cob : and laid waste his dweiiing- 
 place. 
 
 8 O remember not our old sins, 
 but have mercy upon us, and that 
 soon : for we are come to great 
 misery. 
 
 9 Help us, O God of our sal- 
 vation, for the glorv ofthy Name : 
 O deliver us, and be merciful un- 
 to our sins, for thy Name's sake. 
 
 10 Wherefore do the heat lien 
 say : Where is now their God ? 
 
 1 1 () let the vengeance of thy 
 servants' blood that is shed : be 
 ©penly shewed upon the heathen 
 in our sight. 
 
 12 O let the sorrowful sighing 
 
 power, preserve thou those that 
 are appointed to die. 
 
 10 And for the blasphemy 
 wherewith our neighbours have 
 blasphemed thee : reward thou 
 them, O Lord, seven-fold into 
 their bosom. 
 
 1 4 So we, that are thy people, 
 and sheep of thy pasture, shall give 
 thee thanks for ever : and will al- 
 way be shewing forth thy praibe 
 from generation to generation.

 Lord, lo, thine enemies shall perish : 
 and all the workers of wickedness 
 shall be destroyed. 
 
 9 But mine horn shall be exalt-

 for I am anointed with fresh oil. 
 
 10 Mine eye also shall see his*

 like a palm-tree : and shall spread 
 abroad like a cedar in Libanus.

 in the courts of the house of our 
 God.

 2 Hide not thy face from me in

 thine ear unto me when I call ; 
 O hear me, and that right soon.

 away like smoke : and my bones 
 are burnt up as it were a fire- 
 brand. 
 
 4 My heart is smitten down, 
 and withered like grass : so that I 
 forget to eat my bread. 
 
 5 For the voice of my groaning: 
 my bones will scarce cleave to my 
 flesh.

 the wilderness : and like an owl 
 that is in the desert. 
 
 7 I have watched, and am even 
 as it were a sparrow : that sitteth 
 alone upon the house-top. 
 
 8 Mine enemies revile me all the 
 day long : and they that are mad 
 upon me are sworn together a- 
 gainst me. 
 
 9 For I have eaten ashes as it 
 were bread : and mingled my 
 drink with weeping ; 
 
 10 And that because of thine 
 indignation and wrath : for thou 
 hast taken me up, and cast me 
 down. 
 
 1 1 My days are gone like a sha- 
 dow : and I am withered like 
 grass.

 mercy upon Sion : for it is f : 
 that thou have mercy upon her ; 
 yea, the time is come. 
 
 1 4 And why : thy servants think i 
 upon her stones : and it pitLth 
 them to see her in the dust.- 
 
 1 5 The heathen shall fear thy 
 nam?, O Lord : and all the kings 
 of the earth thy Majesty : 
 
 1 6 When the Lord shall build 
 up Sion ; and when his glory shall 
 appear ; 
 
 17 When he turneth him unto 
 the prayer of the poor destitute ; 
 and despiseth not their desire. 
 
 18 This shall be written for 
 those that come after : and the 
 people which shall be born shall 
 praise the Lord. 
 
 19 For he hath looked down 
 from his sanctuary: out of the hea- 
 ven did the Lord behold the earth ; 
 
 20 That he might hear the 
 mournings of such as are in cap- 
 tivity : and deliver the children 
 appointed unto death ; 
 
 21 That they may declare the 
 Name of the Lord in Sion : and 
 his worship in Jerusalem ; 
 
 2 2 When the people are gather- 
 ed together : and the kingdoms 
 also, to serve the Lord. 
 
 23 He brought down my 
 strength in my journey : and 
 shortened my days. 
 
 24 But I said, O my God, take 
 me not away in the midst of mine 
 age : as for thy years, they en*- 
 dure throughout all generations. 
 
 25 Thou, Lord, in the begin- 
 ning hast laid the foundation of 
 the earth : and the heavens are 
 the work of thy hands. 
 
 26 They shall perish, but thou 
 shalt endure : they all shall wax 
 old as doth a garment ; 
 
 of the Month. 
 
 27 And as a vesture shalt thou 
 change them, and they shall be 
 changed : but thou art the same, 
 and thy years shall not fail.

 shall continue : and tneir seed 
 shall stand fast in thy sight.

 so great is his mercy also toward

 chambers in the waters : and

 19 Until the time came that

 39 At their desire he brought 
 quails : and he filled them with

 44 That they might keep his

 2 Who can express the noble 
 acts of the Lord : or shew forth 
 all his praise ? 
 
 3 Blessed are they that alway 
 keep judgment : and do righte- 
 ousness. 
 
 4 Remember me, O Lord, ac- 
 cording to the favour that thou 
 bearest unto thy people : O visit 
 me with thy salvation ; 
 
 5 That 1 may see the felicity of 
 thy chosen : and rejoice in the 
 gladness of thy people, and give 
 thanks with thine inheritance. 
 
 6 We have sinned with our 
 fathers : we have done amiss, and 
 dealt wickedly. 
 
 7 Our fathers regarded not thy 
 wonders in Egypt, neither kept 
 they thy great goodness in remem- 
 brance : but were disobedient at 
 the sea, even at the Red sea. 
 
 8 Nevertheless, he helped them 
 for his Name's sake : that he might 
 make his power to be known. 
 
 9 He rebuked the Red sea also, 
 and it was dried up : so he led 
 them through the deep, as through 
 a wilderness. 
 
 10 And he saved them from the 
 adversary's hand : and delivered 
 them from the Hand of the enemy. 
 
 11 As for those that troubled 
 them, the waters overwhelmed 
 
 them : there was not one of them 
 left. 
 
 12 Then believed they his 
 words : and sang praise unto him. 
 
 13 But within a while they 
 forgat his works : and would not 
 abide his counsel. 
 
 14 But lust came upon them in 
 the wilderness : and they tempted 
 God in the desart. 
 
 1 5 And he gave them their de- 
 sire : and sent leanness withal into 
 their soul. 
 
 16 They angered Moses also in 
 the tents ; and Aaron the saint of 
 the Lord. 
 
 17 So the earth opened, and swal- 
 lowed up Dathan : and covered 
 the congregation ofAbiram. 
 
 18 And the fire was kindled in 
 their company : the flame burnt 
 up the ungodly. 
 
 1 9 They made a calf in Horeb : 
 and worshipped the molten image. 
 
 20 Thus they turned their glo- 
 ry : into the similitude of a calf 
 that eateth hay. 
 
 21 And they forgat God their 
 Saviour : who had done so great 
 things in Egypt ; 
 
 22 Wondrous works in the land 
 of Ham : and fearful things by the 
 Red sea. 
 
 23 So he said, he would have 
 destroyed them, had not Moses his 
 chosen stoodbefore him in the gap; 
 to turn away his wrathful indigna- 
 tion, lest he should destroy them. 
 
 24 Yea, they thought scorn of 
 that pleasant land : and gave no 
 credence unto his word ; 
 
 25 But murmured in their tents : 
 and hearkened not unto the voice 
 of the Lord. 
 
 26 Then lift he up his hand a-

 in the wilderness ;

 and the land was defiled with

 38 Thus were they stained with

 39 Therefore was the wrath 
 of the Lord kindled against his 
 people : insomuch that lie abhor-

 LORD, remember David : and

 2 How ho sware unto the Lord : 
 and vowed a vow unto the Almigh- 
 ty God of Jacob. 
 
 3 I will not come within the 
 tabernacle of mine house : nor 
 climb up into my bed : 
 
 " 4 I will not suffer mine eyes to 
 sleep, nor mine eye-lids to slum- 
 ber : neither the temples of my 
 head to take any rest ;

 temple of the Lord : an habitation 
 for the mighty God of Jacob. 
 
 6 Lo, we heard of the same at 
 Ephrata : and found it in the 
 wood. 
 
 7 We will go into his taberna- 
 cle : and fall low on our knees 
 before his footstool. 
 
 8 Arise, O Lord, into thy rest-

 thy strength. 
 
 9 Let thy priests be clothed with 
 righteousness : and let thy saints 
 sing with joyfulness. 
 
 10 For thy servant David's 
 sake : turn not away the presence 
 of thine Anointed. 
 
 11 The Lord hath made a 
 faithful oath unto Davicl : and he 
 shall not shrink from it ;

 shall I set upon thy seat. 
 
 13 If thy children will keep my 
 covenant, and my testimonies that 
 I shall learn them : their children 
 also shall sit upon thy seat for ever-

 Sion to be an habitation for him- 
 self : he hath longed for her. 
 
 15 This shall be my rest foi

 health : and her saints shall rejoice

 Morning Prayer. Psalm 139. 
 
 OLord, thou hast searched me 
 out, and known me : thou 
 knowest my down-sitting, and 
 mine up-rising ; thou understandest 
 my thoughts long before. 
 
 2 Thou art about my path, 
 and about my bed : and spiest 
 out all my ways. 
 
 3 For lo, there is not a word 
 in my tongue : but thou, O Lord 
 knowest it altogether. 
 
 4 Thou hast fashioned me be- 
 hind and before : and laid thine 
 hand upon me. 
 
 5 Such knowledge is too won- 
 derful and excellent for me : I 
 cannot attain unto it. 
 
 6 Whither shall I go then from 
 thy spirit : or whither shall I go 
 then from thy presence .? 
 
 7 If I climb up into heaven, 
 thou art there : if I go down to 
 hell, thou art there also. 
 
 8 If I take the wings of the 
 morning ; and remain in the ut- 
 termost parts of the sea ; 
 
 9 Even there also shall thy 
 hand lead me : and thy right 
 hand shall hold me. 
 
 10 If I say, Peradventure the 
 darkness shall cover me : then 
 shall my night be turned to day. 
 
 11 Yea, the darkness is no 
 darkness with thee, but die night is 
 as clear as the day : the darkness 
 and light to thee are both alike. 
 
 12 For my reins are thine : 
 thou hast covered me in my mo- Ida y long

 13 I will give thanks unto thee,

 works, and that my soul knoweth

 14 My bones are not hid from 
 thee : though I be made secretly,

 15 Thine eyes did see my sub- 
 stance, yet being imperfect : and 
 in thy book were all my mem- 
 bers written ; 
 
 16 Which, day by day were 
 fashioned : when as yet there 
 was none of them. 
 
 17 How dear are thy counsels 
 unto me, O God : O how great 
 is the sum of them ! 
 
 18 If" I tell them, they are more 
 in number than the sand : when I 
 wake up I am present with thee. 
 
 19 Wilt thou not slay the 
 wicked, O God : depart from 
 me, ye blood thirsty men. 
 
 20 For they speak unrighte-

 21 Do not I hate them, O 
 Lord, that hate thee : and am 
 not I grieved with th'ose that 
 rise up against thee ? 
 
 22 Yea, I hate them right sore :

 enemies.

 castle and deliverer, my defender 
 in whom I trust : who subdueth

 3 Lord, what is man, that thou 
 hast such respect unto him ; or the 
 son of man, that thou so regardest 
 him ? 
 
 4 Man is like a thing of nought : 
 his time passeth away like a shadow. 
 
 5 Bow thy heavens, O Lord, 
 and come down : touch the moun- 
 tains, and they shall smoke. 
 
 6 Cast forth thy lightning, and 
 tear them ; shoot out thine ar- 
 rows, and consume them. 
 
 7 Send down thine hand from 
 above : deliver me, and take me 
 out of the great waters, from the 
 hand of strange children ; 
 
 8 Whose mouth talketh of

 right hand of wickedness.

 bring forth thousands and ten

 14 That our oxen may be»

 Psalm 145. 
 
 I Will magnify thee, O God, 
 my King : and I will praise 
 thy Name for ever and ever. 
 
 2 Every day will I give thanks 
 unto thee : and praise thy Name 
 for ever and ever. 
 
 3 Great is the Lord, and mar- 
 vellous, worthy to be praised : 
 there is no end of his greatness. 
 
 4 One generation shall praise 
 thy works unto another ; and de- 
 clare thy power. 
 
 5 As for me, I will be talking 
 of thy worship : thy glory, thy 
 praise, and wondrous works ; 
 
 6 So that men shall speak of 
 the might of thy marvellous acts ; 
 and I will also tell of thy great- 
 ness. 
 
 7 The memorial of thine abun- 
 dant kindness shall be shewed : 
 and men shall sing of thy righte-

 8 The Lord is gracious, and 
 merciful : long-suffering, and of 
 great goodness. , 
 
 9 The Lord is loving unto 
 every man : and his mercy is over 
 all his works. 
 
 10 All thy works praise thee, 
 O Lord ; and thy saints give thanks 
 unto thee. 
 
 1 1 They shew the glory of thy 
 kingdom : and talk of thy power ; 
 
 12 That thy power, thy glory, 
 and mightiness o^ thy kingdom ; 
 might be known unto men. 
 
 13 Thy kingdom is an everlast* 
 ing kingdom : and thy dominion 
 endureth throughout all ages. 
 
 14 The Lord upholdeth all such 
 as fall : and lifteth up all those 
 that are down. 
 
 15 The eyes of all wait upon 
 thee, O Lord : and thou givest 
 them their meat in due season. 
 
 16 Thou openest thine hand ; 
 and fillest all things living with 
 plenteousness. 
 
 17 The Lord is righteous in all 
 his ways ; and holy in all his 
 works. 
 
 18 The Lord is nigh unto all 
 them that call upon him : yea, all 
 such as call upon him faithfully. 
 
 19 He will fulfil the desire of 
 them that fear him : he also wi,ll 
 hear their cry, and will help 
 them.

 Psalm 146. 
 
 PRAISE the Lord, O my soul ; 
 while I live will I praise the 
 Lord : yea, as long as I have any 
 being, I will sing praises unto my 
 God. 
 
 2 O put not vour trust in princes, 
 nor in any child of man ; for there 
 is no help in them. \ 
 
 3 For when the breath of man 
 goeth forth, he shall turn again to 
 his earth : and then all his 
 thoughts perish. 
 
 4 Blessed is he that hath the 
 God of Jacob for his help : and 
 whose hope is in the Lord his 
 God; 
 
 5 Who made heaven and earth, 
 the sea, and all that therein is ; 
 who keepeth his promise for ever ; 
 
 6 Who helpeth them to right 
 that suffer wrong ; who feedeth 
 the hungry. 
 
 7 The Lord looseth men out of 
 prison : the Lord giveth sight to 
 die blind. 
 
 8 The Lord helpeth them that 
 are fallen : the Lord careth for 
 the righteous. 
 
 9 The Lord careth for the 
 strangers ; he defendeth the fa- 
 therless and widow : as for the 
 way of the ungodly, he turneth it 
 upside down.

 shall be King for evermore : pud

 trust in his mercy.

 flour of wheat. 
 
 15 He sendeth forth his com- 
 mandment upon earth ; and his
