Psalms 127:1 Cross References - Coverdale

¹ Excepte the LORDE buylde the house, their labour is but lost that buylde it.

¹⁰ He shal buylde an house vnto my name. He shal be my sonne, and I wyll be his father. And I wyl stablyshe ye seate of his kyngdome vpo Israel for euer. ¹¹ Now my sonne, the LORDE shal be wyth the, and thou shalt prospere, that thou mayest buylde an house vnto the LORDE thy God, acordynge as he hath spoken of the.

¹⁰ Take hede now, for the LORDE hath chosen the, to buylde an house to be the Sactuary: be stronge, and make it.

²⁰ And Dauid sayde vnto Salomo his sonne: Be thou manly and stronge, and make it, feare not, and be not fayntharted, the LORDE God my God shal be with the, and shall not withdrawe his hande, ner fayle the, tyll thou haue fynished euery worke for the seruyce in the house of the LORDE.

¹⁹ And graunte my sonne Salomon a perfecte hert, that he maye kepe thy comaundementes, thy testimonies, & thy statutes, that he maye do all, & buylde this palace, which I haue prepared.

¹⁶ A kynge is not helped by his owne greate hoost, nether is a giaunte saued thorow the might of his owne stregth. ¹⁷ A horse is but a vayne thynge to saue a man, it is not the power of his stregth that can delyuer him. ¹⁸ Beholde, the eye of the LORDE loketh vnto them that feare him, & put their trust in his mercy.

¹ Geue the kinge thy iudgmet (o God) and thy rightuousnesse vnto the kynges sonne.

⁶⁹ Neuerthelesse, he chose ye trybe of Iuda, eue the hill of Sion which he loued.

¹ When I am in trouble, I call vpon ye LORDE, & he answereth me.

¹ I lift vp myne eyes vnto the hilles, fro whence commeth my helpe?

³ He will not suffre thy fote to be moued, and he yt kepeth the, slepeth not. ⁴ Beholde, he that kepeth Israel, doth nether slombre ner slepe. ⁵ The LORDE himself is thy keper, the LORDE is thy defence vpon yi right honde.

¹ I was glad, when they sayde vnto me: we wil go in to the house of the LORDE.

¹ Unto the lift I vp myne eyes, thou yt dwellest in the heauens.

¹ If the LORDE had not bene of oure syde (now maye Israel saye) Yf the LORDE had not bene of oure syde, whe me rose vp agaynst vs:

¹ They that put their trust in ye LORDE, are eue as the mount Sion, which maye not be remoued, but stodeth fast for euer.

¹ When the LORDE turneth agayne ye captiuyte of Sion, then shal we be like vnto them that dreame.

⁹ A ma deuyseth a waye in his herte, but it is ye LORDE yt ordreth his goinges.

³⁰ There is no wy?dome, there is no vnderstondinge, there is no councell agaynst the LORDE. ³¹ The horse is prepared agaynst ye daye of battayll, but the LORDE geueth the victory.

¹¹ So I turned me vnto other thinges vnder ye Sonne, and I sawe, that in runnynge, it helpeth not to be swift: in batayll, it helpeth not to be stronge: to fedynge, it helpeth not to be wyse: to riches, it helpeth not to be sutyll: to be had in fauoure, it helpeth not to be connynge: but that all lyeth in tyme & fortune.

³ The watchmen that go aboute ye cite, founde me. Sawe ye not him, whom my soule loueth?

⁷ So the watchmen that wente aboute the cite, foude me, smote me, and wounded me: Yee they that kepte the walles, toke awaye my garmet fro me.

⁵ Yee soone make redy the table (sayde this voyce) kepe the watch, eate and drynke: Vp ye captaynes, take you to youre shylde, ⁶ for thus the LORDE hath charged me: go thy waye, and set a watchma, that he maye tell what he seyth. ⁷ And whe he had wayted diligetly, he sawe two horsmen: the one rydinge vpon an Asse, the other vpon a camel. ⁸ And the lyon cried: LORDE, I haue stonde waytinge all the whole daye, and haue kepte my watch all the night. ⁹ With yt came there one rydinge vpon a charet, which answered, and sayde Babilon is fallen, she is turned vpsyde downe, and all ye ymages of hir goddes are smytten to ye grounde. ¹⁰ This (o my felowe throsshers and fanners) haue I herde of the LORDE of hoostes the God of Israel, to shewe it vnto you. ¹¹ The heuy burthen of Duma. One of Seir cried vnto me: watchman, what hast thou espied by night? Watchman, what hast thou espied by night? ¹² The watchman answered: The daye breaketh on, and the night is comynge: Yf youre request be earnest, then axe, and come agayne.

³ I the LORDE kepe it, and water it in due season. I watch daye & night, that no man breake in to it. I beare no euel wil in my mynde.

¹⁰ For his watchmen are all blinde, they haue alltogether no vnderstondinge, they are all domme dogges, not beinge able to barcke, they are slepery: slogish are they, & lie snortinge:

⁶ I wil set watchme vpo thy walles (o Ierusalem) which shall nether ceasse daye nor night, to preach ye LORDE. And ye also shall not kepe him close,

¹² Set vp tokens vpon the walles of Babilon, make youre watch stronge, set yor watch men in araye, yee holde preuye watches: & yet for all that shall the LORDE go forth with the deuyce, which he hath taken vpon them that dwell in Babilon.

³¹ One purseuaunt shal mete another, yee one poste shal come by another, to bringe the kinge of Babilon tydinges: that his cite is taken in on euery syde,

² Thou sonne off man, Speake to the childre of thy people, and tell them: When I sende a swearde vpon a londe, yf the people off the londe take a man off their countre, and set him to be their watchman: ³ ye same man (wha he seyth the swearde come vpon the londe) shall blowe the trompet, and warne the people. ⁴ Yff a man now heare the noyse off the trompet & will not be warned, and the swearde come ad take him awaye: his bloude shall be vpo his owne heade: ⁵ For he herde the soude of the trompet, and wolde not take hede, therfore his bloude be vpon him. But yff he will receaue warnynge, he shal saue his life. ⁶ Agayne, yf the watch man se the swerde come, and shewe it not with the trompet, so yt the people is not warned: yff the swearde come then, and take eny man from amoge the: the same shall be taken awaye in his owne synne, but his bloude will I requyre off the watchmans honde. ⁷ And now (O thou sonne of man) I haue made the a watchman vnto the house of Israel: that where as thou hearest eny thinge out of my mouth, thou mayest warne them on my behalfe. ⁸ Yff I saye vnto the wicked: thou wicked, thou shalt surely dye: and thou geuest him not warnynge, that he maye bewarre off his vngodly waye: then shall the wicked dye in his owne synne, but his bloude will I requyre of thy honde. ⁹ Neuertheles yf thou warne the wicked off his waye, to turne from it, where as he yet wil not be turned from it: then shal he dye because off his synne, but thou hast delyuered thy soule.

⁴ & sayde vnto him: Runne, speake to this yonge man, & saye: Ierusalem shal be inhabited without eny wal, for ye very multitude of people & catell, yt shal be therin. ⁵ Yee I myself (saieth the LORDE) wil be vnto her a wall of fyre rounde aboute, & wilbe honoured in her.

⁷ So then nether is he that planteth, eny thinge, nether he that watreth, but God which geueth the increase.

⁹ For we are Gods labourers, ye are Gods hussbandry, ye are Gods buyldinge. ¹⁰ Acordinge to the grace of God which is geuen vnto me, as a wyse buylder haue I layed the foundacion, but another buyldeth theron. Yet let euery man take hede how he buyldeth theron. ¹¹ For other foudacion can noman laye, then that which is layed, the which is Iesus Christ. ¹² But yf eny man buylde vpon this foundacion, golde, syluer, precious stones, tymber, haye, stobble, ¹³ euerymas worke shal be shewed. For the daye of the LORDE shal declare it, which shal be shewed with fyre: and the fyre shal trye euery mas worke what it is. ¹⁴ Yf eny mans worke that he hath buylde theron, abyde, he shal receaue a rewarde: ¹⁵ Yf eny mans worke burne, he shal suffre losse: but he shal be saued himselfe, neuertheles as thorow fyre.

¹⁴ Yf Christ be not rysen, then is oure preachinge in vayne,and youre faith is also in vayne:

¹¹ I am in feare of you, lest I haue bestowed laboure on you in vayne.
