³ and sayd. In my trouble I called vnto the Lorde, and he herde me: out of the bely of hell I cryed, & thou herdest my voyce.

³ For when they shall saye, peace and all thynges are safe, then shall soden destruccyon come vpon them (as sorowe commeth vpon a woman traualynge with chylde) & they shall not scape:

¹⁵ And the dragon cast oute of hys mouth water after the woman as it had bene a ryuer, because she shuld haue bene caught of the floud. ¹⁶ And the erth holpe the woman, and the erth opened her mouth & swalowed, vp the ryuer, which the dragon cast out of his mouth.

¹ And ther came one of the seuen Angels, whyche had the seuen vyalles: and talked wyth me, sayenge vnto me: come, I wyll shewe vnto the, the iudgement of the great whore that sytteth vpon many waters,

¹⁵ And he sayde vnto me: the waters whych thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are people, and folke, & nacions, and tonges.

⁸ But yf they be layed in preson and cheynes, or bounde with the bondes of trouble,

⁵ In my trouble wyll I call vpon the Lorde: & complayne vnto my God.

³ The snares of death compased me round about, and the paynes of hell gat hold vpon me,

⁵ The proude haue layed a snare for me: and spred a net abroad with coardes: yee, & set trappes in my waye Sela.

²² The wyckednesse of the vngodly shall catch hymselfe, and with the snares of hys awne synnes shall he be trapped.

¹⁴ The lawe is a well of lyfe vnto the wyse, that it maye kepe hym from the snares of death:

²⁷ The feare of the Lorde is a well of lyfe, to auoyde the snares of death.

² b) And Ionas prayed vnto the Lorde hys God, out of the fysshes bely,

²⁴ whom God hath raysed vp, & loosed the sorowes of deeth, because it was vnpossible, that he shulde be holden of it.

⁷ And the Lorde sayde: I haue surely sene the trouble of my people whych are in Egypte, and haue herde theyr crye from the face of their taskemasters. For I knowe their sorowes,

²⁸ Haue thou therfore respect vnto the prayer of thy seruaunt, and to hys supplicacyon, O Lorde my God, to heare the voyce and prayer before the this daye: ²⁹ that thyne eyes maye be open towarde this house, night and daye, euen toward this place, of which thou hast sayde: My name shal be there. That thou mayest herken vnto the prayer which thy seruaunt praieth in this place. ³⁰ And regarde thou, the supplicacion of thy seruaunt & of thy people Israel, when they praye in this place. And heare thou in heauen thy dwellynge place, & when thou hearest, haue mercy.

⁶ So shall he heare my voyce out of his temple, & my complaynte shall come before him, it shall entre euen into hys cares.

⁴ One thynge haue I desyred of the Lorde, which I will requyre: euen that I maye dwell in the house of the Lorde all the dayes of my lyfe: to beholde the fayre bewtie of the Lorde, and to vyset this temple.

¹⁵ The eyes of the Lorde are ouer the ryghteous, & his eares are open vnto their prayers. ¹⁶ The countenaunce of the Lorde is agaynst them that do euell, to rote out the remembraunce of them from of the earth. ¹⁷ The ryghteous crye, & the Lorde heareth them, & delyuereth them out of all theyr troubles.

¹ A songe of the steares. When I was in trouble, I called vpon the Lorde, and he hearde me.

⁴ Thou haddest cast me downe depe in the myddest of the see, & the floude compased me aboute: yee, all thy waues and roules of water went ouer me,

⁷ I went downe to the botome of the hylles, and was barred in with earth for euer. But thou, O Lorde my God, hast brought vp my lyfe agayne out of corrupcion.

²⁰ But the Lorde in his holy temple is he: whom all the worlde shulde feare.

³⁸ Then sayde Iesus vnto them: my soule his heuy, euen vnto the deeth. Tary ye here: and watche wt me. ³⁹ And he went a lytell farther, and fell flat on his face, and prayed, sayinge: O my father, yf it be possible, let this cuppe passe from me: neuerthelesse, not as I will, but as thou wilt.

⁴⁴ And he was in an agoyne, and prayed the longer. And hys sweate was lyke droppes of bloud, trycklynge downe to the grounde.

⁷ which in the dayes of his flesshe, whan he had offered vp prayers and supplicacions, with stronge cryinge and teares (vnto him that was able to saue him from deeth) and was hearde because of hys reuerence,

⁴ Beholde the hyre of labourers which haue reaped downe youre feldes (which hyre is of you kept backe by fraude) cryeth: & the cryes of them which haue reaped, are entred in to the eares of the Lord Sabaoth.

⁴ Lord, whan thou wentest out of Seir, whan thou departedst out of the felde of Edom, the erth trembled, & the heauens rayned: the cloudes also dropped water.

¹¹ The very pyllers of heauen tremble and quake at his reprofe.

⁷ The erth trembled & quaked, the very foundacions also of the hylles shoke & were remoued, because he was wroth.

¹⁸ The voyce of thy thonder was hearde rounde aboute, the lyghtenynges shone vpon the grounde, the earth was moued and shoke wythall

⁴ His lightenynges gaue shyne vnto the worlde, the earth sawe it and was afrayed.

⁵ The mountaynes tremble for him, the hylles consume. At the sight of him, the earth quaketh: yee, the whole world, and all that dwell therin.

⁶ He standeth, & measureth the earth He loketh, & the people consume awaye, the mountaynes of the worlde fal downe to poulder, & the hilles are fayne to bowe them selues, for his goinges are euerlastynge and sure. ⁷ I sawe, that the pauilyons of the Morians & the tentes of the land of Madian were vexed for werynesse. ⁸ Wast thou not angrie O Lord, in the waters? was not thy wrath in the floudes, & thy displeasure in the see? yes when thou sattest vpon thine horse, & when thy charetes had the victory. ⁹ Thou shewedst thy bowe openly, lyke as thou haddest promysed wt an othe vnto the trybes. Selah. Thou dydest deuyde the waters of the earth. ¹⁰ When the mountaines sawe the, they were afrayed, the water streame wente awaye: the depe made a noyse at the lyftinge vp of thyne hand. ¹¹ The Sunne & Moone remayned styll in their habitacyon. Thyne arowes wente out glisterynge, and thy speares as the shyne of the lyghtenyng.

⁵¹ And beholde, the vayle of the temple dyd rent in to two partes, from the toppe to the bottome, and the earth dyd quake, and the stones ren

² And beholde, ther was a greate earthquake. For the angell of the Lord descended from heauen, & came & rowlled backe the stone from the dore, and sat vpon it.

³¹ And assone as they had prayed the place moued where they were assembled together and they were all fylled with the holy Goost, and they spake the worde of God boldely.

⁷ And in thy greate glory thou hast ouerthrowne them that rose vp agaynst the: thou sentest forth thy wrath which consumed them euen as stobell. ⁸ Thorowe the winde of thy nastrels the water gathered together, the floudes stode styll as an heape, and the depe water congeled together in the hert of the see.

¹⁸ And mounte Sinay was all to gether on a smoke: because the Lorde descended downe vpon it in fyre. And the smoke therof ascended vp, as the smoke of a kele, and all the mount was exceadyng fearfull.

¹⁷ And the facyon of the glorye of the Lorde was lyke consumynge fyre on the toppe of the hyll in the syghte of the children of Israel.

²² For fyre is kyndled in my wrath, & burneth vnto the botome of hell. And hath consumed the earth with her encrease, and sett a fyre the botoms of the mountaynes.

¹³ Thorowe the bryghtnesse of his presence were the fyre coles kyndled.

¹⁶ The flowinges of the see appered, and the foundacyons of the worlde were sene, by the reason of the rebukinge of the Lorde, and thorowe the blastynge of the breeth of hys nostrelles.

⁹ With the blast of God they perish, and with the breth of hys nastrels are they consumed awaye.

²⁰ and out of his nostrels ther goeth a smoke, lyke as out of an hote sething pot. ²¹ His breth maketh the coales burne, and the flamme goeth out of hys mouth.

⁸ There went a smoke out in his presence: & a consumynge fyre out of hys mouth, so that coales were kyndled at it.

¹⁵ The sprynges of waters were sene, & the foundacions of the round worlde were discouered at thy chydinge, O Lorde, at the blastynge of the breth of thy displeasure.

³ There shall go a fyre before hym, and burne vp hys enemyes on euery syde. ⁴ His lightenynges gaue shyne vnto the worlde, the earth sawe it and was afrayed. ⁵ The hilles melted lyke waxe at the presence of the Lorde, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

²⁷ Beholde, the fame of the Lord commeth from farre, and his presence is so hote, that no man is able to abyde. His lyppes are full of indignation, and hys tonge is as a consumynge fyer.

³³ For the fyer of payne is ordeyned from the begynning: yee, euen for kynges is it prepared. Thys hath the Lorde set in the depe, and made it wyde: the burninge wherof is fyer and muche wodde. The breth of the Lorde, which is a ryuer of brymstone, doth kyndle it.

¹⁴ Wherfore, thus sayth the Lorde God of hoostes: bycause ye speake suche wordes, beholde: The wordes that are in thy mouth wyl I turne to fyre, and make the people to be wood, that the fyre maye consume them.

¹⁴ And I wyll brynge the with thyne enemyes into a land, that thou knowest not: for the fyre that is kyndled in my indignacyon, shall burne you vp.

⁵ Destruccyon goeth before hym, & a pestilent sycknesse go from his fete.

²⁹ For oure God is a consumyng fyre.

²¹ And the people stode a farre of, and Moses went into the thycke clowde where God was.

¹¹ ye came and stode also vnder the hyll, and the hyll burnt with fyre: euen vnto the myddes of heauen, & there was darcknesse, clowdes & myst.

¹² Then spake Salomon: the Lorde sayde: that he wolde dwell in the darck cloude.

² Cloudes and darcknesse are rounde aboute hym, ryghteousnesse and iudgment are the habitacyon of his seate.

³ Which layeth the beames of his chambers in the waters, & maketh the cloudes his charet, & walketh vpon the wynges of the wynde.

⁵ Bowe thy heauens, O Lorde, & come downe, touche the mountaynes, & they shall smoke.

¹ O that thou woldest cleue the heauen in sonder, & come downe: that the mountaynes myght melte awaye at thy presence, ² lyke as at an hote fyre: & that the malicyous myght boyle, as the water doth vpon the fyre: Wherby thy name myght be knowne amonge thyne enemyes, & that the Gentyls myght tremble before the. ³ When thou wroughtest wonderous straunge worckes, we loked not for them. Thou cammest downe and the hylles melt at thy presence.

³ The Lord suffreth longe, he is of great power, & so innocent that he leaueth no man fautlesse before him. The Lord goeth forth in tempest & stormy wether, the cloudes are the dust of his fete.

⁴⁵ From the syxte houre was there dercknes ouer all the lande vnto the nynth houre.

⁴⁴ And it was about the syxte houre. And ther was darcknes ouer all the earth, vntyll the nynth houre, ⁴⁵ and the sonne was darckned. And the vayle of the temple dyd rent, euen thorow the myddes.

²⁴ And so he droue out man, & at the east syde of the garden of Eden, he set Cherubins, & the glysterynge flame of a shakynge swerde, to kepe the waye of the tre of lyfe.

¹⁹ and the one cherub shalt thou make on the one ende, and the other on the other ende. Euen of the same mercyseate shall ye make Cherubins in the two endes therof.

⁴ And so the people sent to Silo, & fet from thens the arcke of the appoyntment of the Lord of Hoostes, which dwelleth betwene the cherubins. And there were the two sonnes of Eli, Hophni, & Phinehes with the arcke of the appoyntment of God.

¹⁰ He rode vpon the cherubins, & dyd flye: he came flying vpon the wynges of the wynde.

¹⁷ The charettes of God are twentie thousande, euen thousandes of angels, and the Lord is amonge them as in the holy place of Sinai.

¹ To the chaunter vpon Sosanim, a testimonye and Psalme of Asaph. Heare O thou shepherde of Israel, thou that leadest Ioseph lyke a shepe. shewe thy selfe also thou that syttest vpon the Cherubyns.

¹ The Lorde is kynge, be the people neuer so vnpacient: he sytteth betwene the Cherubins, be the earth neuer so vnquiet.

⁹ If I take the wynges of the mornynge, & remayne in the vttermost partes of the see.

³ for the glory of the Lorde was gone awaye from the Cherub whych was vpon him, & was come downe to the thresholde of the house, and he called the man that had the lynen rayment vpon hym, and the wryters ynckhorne by his syde,

² Then sayde he that sat therin, to him that had the lynen rayment vpon hym: Crepe in betwene the wheles that are vnder the Cherubyns, and take thyne hande full of hoate coales out from betwene the Cherubyns, and cast them ouer the cytie. And he crepte in, that I myght se. ³ Now the Cherubyns stode vpon the ryght syde of the house, when the man wente in, & the cloude fylled the inner courte. ⁴ But the glory of the Lorde remoued from the Cherubyns, and came vpon the thresholde of the house: so that the temple was full of cloudes, and the courte was full of the shyne of the Lordes glory. ⁵ Yee, and the sounde of the Cherubyns wynges was hearde into the fore courte, lyke as it had bene the voyce of the almyghtye God, when he speaketh. ⁶ Nowe when he had byden the man that was clothed in lynen, to go and take the hoate coales from the myddest of the wheles, whych were vnder the Cherubyns: he wente & stode besyde the wheles. ⁷ Then the one Cherub reached forth hys hande from vnder the Cherubyns, vnto the fyre that was betwene the Cherubyns, and toke therof, and gaue it vnto hym that had on the lynen rayment in his hande: which toke it, & went out. ⁸ And vnder the wynges of the Cherubyns, there appeared the lycknesse of a mans hande: ⁹ I sawe also foure wheles besyde the Cherubyns, so that by euery cherub there stode a whele. And the wheles were (to loke vpon) after the fashion of the precyous stone of Tharsys: ¹⁰ yet (vnto the syght) they were all .iiij. of one fashyon, as yf one whele had bene in another. ¹¹ When they wente forth, they wente all foure together, not turnynge aboute in their goinge: But where the fyrst wente, thyther wente they after also, so that they turned not aboute in their goyng. ¹² Their whole bodyes, their backes, theyr handes & wynges, yee, and the wheles also, were all full of eyes rounde aboute them all foure. ¹³ And I hearde hym call the wheles. ¹⁴ Euery one of them had foure faces: so that the one face was the face of a Cherub, the seconde of a man, the thyrde of a lyon, the fourth of an Aegle,

¹⁴ Are they not all minystrynge spretes, that are sent to minyster, for theyr sakes whych shalbe heyres of saluacyon?

¹⁰ And he bowed heuen, and came downe, and there was darcknesse vnder his fete.

²⁹ He can sprede out the cloudes (a couerynge of hys tabernacle)

¹¹ He made darcknes hys secrete place: hys pauylion rounde aboute hym, with darcke water and thycke cloudes to couer hym. ¹² At the bryghtnesse of hys presence hys cloudes remoued, hayle stones and coales of fyer.

⁹ Smoke went vp in his wrath, and consumynge fyre out of hys mouth, coles were kendled therof.

⁶ Ye shall be vnto me also a kyngdome of preastes and an holy people: and these are the wordes which thou shalt saye vnto the chyldren of Israel.

²⁰ They fought from heauen, euen the starres in their courses fought agaynst Sisera.

¹⁰ The lordes aduersaries shall be destroyed of hym: and out of heauen shall he thunder vpon euery one of them. The lorde shall iudge the endes of the worlde, & shall gyue myght vnto his kynge, and exalte the horne of his anoynted.

¹⁰ And as Samuel offred the burntoffring, the Philistines came to fyght agenst Israel. But the Lorde thondered a great thonder that same daye amonge the Philistines, and scatered them, that they fell before Israel.

¹⁷ is it not now wheatheruest? I will call vnto the Lorde, and he shall sende thunder and rayne: that ye maye perceaue and se, howe that youre wickednes is great, which ye haue done in the syght of the Lorde, in askynge you a kynge. ¹⁸ And so, Samuel called vnto the Lorde, and the Lorde sent thunder and rayne the same daye. And all the people feared the Lorde and Samuel exceadyngly.

² Heare then the sounde of hys voyce, and the noyse that goeth out of his mouth. ³ He gouerneth euery thyng vnder the heauen, and his lyght reacheth vnto the ende of the worlde. ⁴ A roaring voyce foloweth hym: for his glorious maiesty geueth soche a thondre clappe, that (though a man heare it) yet maye he not perceaue it afterwarde. It geueth an horryble sownde, ⁵ when God sendeth oute hys voyce: greate thynges doth he, whych we can not comprehende.

⁹ Is thy power then lyke the power of God? Maketh thy voyce soch a sounde as hys doth?

³ It is the Lorde that commaundeth the waters: It is the glorious God that maketh the thonder: ⁴ it is the Lorde that ruleth the see. ⁵ The voyce of the Lorde is myghtie in operacion, the voyce of the Lorde is a glorious voyce. ⁶ The voyce of the Lorde breaketh the. Cedre trees: yee, the Lorde breaketh the Ceders of Libanus. ⁷ He made them also so skyppe lyke a Calfe: Libanus also, and Syrion lyke a younge vnycorne. ⁸ The voyce of the Lorde deuydeth the flames of fyre: the voyce of the Lorde, shaketh the wyldernesse, ye the Lorde shaketh the wildernesse of Cades. ⁹ The voyce of the Lorde maketh the hyndes to brynge forth younge & discouereth the thicke bushes: in his temple doth euery man speake of his honoure.

¹⁶ The waters sawe the, O God, the waters sawe the, & were afrayed: the deapthes also were troubled. ¹⁷ The cloudes poured out water, the ayer thondered, & thyne arowes went abroade. ¹⁸ The voyce of thy thonder was hearde rounde aboute, the lyghtenynges shone vpon the grounde, the earth was moued and shoke wythall ¹⁹ Thy waye is in the see, and thy pathes in the greate waters, and thy fotesteppes are not knowne.

³⁰ And the Lorde shall cause his gloryous voyce to be heard, and shall declare his stretched out arme with a terrible countenaunce and with the flame of a consuming fyer, with noysome lyghtenynge, with a shower, and with hayle stone.

⁵ Yee, and the sounde of the Cherubyns wynges was hearde into the fore courte, lyke as it had bene the voyce of the almyghtye God, when he speaketh.

¹⁹ And the temple of God was opened in heauen, & ther was sene in his temple, the arcke of his testament, & ther folowed lightnynges, and voyces, and thondrynges and erthquake, and moch hayle.

²³ I will heape mischeues vpon them, & wyll destroye them wyth myne arowes.

¹⁰ And the Lord troubled them before Israell, and slewe them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them a longe the waye that gothe vp to Bethoron, and smote them to Esaka & Makeda.

¹² God is a ryghtewes iudge, and God is prouoked euery daye. Yf a man will not turne, he wyll whet his swerde: he hath bent his bowe and made it ready. ¹³ He hath prepared hym the instrumentes of deeth: he ordeyneth hys arowes agaynst the persecutours.

¹⁴ He sent out his arowes and scattered them, he cast forth lyghtnynges, & destroyed them.

⁵ Good lucke haue thou wt thine honour, ryde on because of the word of treuth, of mekenesse & righteousnes: and thy ryght hande shall teach the terrible thynges.

⁶ Caste forth the lyghtynynge, & teare them, shote out thyne arowes, and consume them. ⁷ Sende downe thyne hande from aboue, delyuer me, & take me out of the great waters, from the hande of straunge chyldren,

¹¹ The Sunne & Moone remayned styll in their habitacyon. Thyne arowes wente out glisterynge, and thy speares as the shyne of the lyghtenyng.

²¹ And Moses stretched forth hys hande ouer the see: and the Lord caryed awaye the see by a verye stronge easte wynde all that nyght, and made the see drye lande, and the waters were deuyded. ²² And the children of Israel went into the myddest of the see vpon the drye grounde. And the waters were a walle vnto them, on their ryght hande, and on their lefte hande. ²³ And the Egipcians folowed and went in after them to the myddest of the see, euen all Pharaos horses, hys charettes and his horsemen. ²⁴ And in the morning watch, the Lorde loked vnto the hoost of the Egipcians out of the fyery and clowdy pyller: and troubled the hoost of the Egipcians, ²⁵ and toke of hys charet wheles & caryed them awaye violently. So that the Egipcians sayde: Let vs fle from the face of Israel: for the Lorde fighteth for them agaynst the Egipcians. ²⁶ And the Lorde sayd vnto Moses: stretch out thyne hande ouer the see, that the waters maye come agayne vpon the Egipcian, vpon his charettes and vpon his horsemen. ²⁷ And Moses stretched forth hys hande ouer the see, and it came agayne to his course rarly in the mornynge, and the Egipcians fledd agaynst it. And the Lorde ouerthrew the Egipcians in the myddest of the see:

⁸ Thorowe the winde of thy nastrels the water gathered together, the floudes stode styll as an heape, and the depe water congeled together in the hert of the see. ⁹ The enemye sayd: I wyll folowe on them: I will ouertake them, I will deuyde the spoyle, I wyll satisfye my lust vpon them, I wyll drawe my sweard, myne hande shall destroye them. ¹⁰ Thou blewdest wt thy wynde, the see couered them, they sancke as leed in the mightye waters.

¹¹ saying: Hyther to shalt thou come, but no farther, & here shalt thou laye downe thy proud and hye waues.

¹⁵ The sprynges of waters were sene, & the foundacions of the round worlde were discouered at thy chydinge, O Lorde, at the blastynge of the breth of thy displeasure. ¹⁶ He shall send downe from the heygth to fetch me, & shall take me out of many waters. ¹⁷ He shall delyuer me from my strongest enemye, & from them which hate me: for they are to myghty for me.

¹ An instruccyon of Asaph. O God, werfore art thou absent from vs so long? why is thy wrath so hote agaynst the shepe of thy pasture?

⁹ He rebuked the reed see also, & it was dryed vp: so he ledd them thorow the depe as thorow a wyldernesse.

³ The see sawe that, and fled Iordan was dryuen backe. ⁴ The mountaynes skipped lyke rammes, and the lytle hilles lyke yonge shepe. ⁵ What ayleth the, O thou see, that thou fleddest? and thou Iordan, that thou wast dryuen backe? ⁶ Ye mountaynes, that ye skypped lyke rammes: & ye lytle hylles, lyke yong shepe? ⁷ Tremble thou erth at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Iacob.

⁴ When he reproueth the see, he dryeth it vp, & turneth all the floudes to drie lande Basan is desolate, Charmel & the pleasure of Lybanus wasteth awaye.

⁸ Wast thou not angrie O Lord, in the waters? was not thy wrath in the floudes, & thy displeasure in the see? yes when thou sattest vpon thine horse, & when thy charetes had the victory. ⁹ Thou shewedst thy bowe openly, lyke as thou haddest promysed wt an othe vnto the trybes. Selah. Thou dydest deuyde the waters of the earth. ¹⁰ When the mountaines sawe the, they were afrayed, the water streame wente awaye: the depe made a noyse at the lyftinge vp of thyne hand.

²⁶ And he sayth vnto them: why are ye fearful, O ye of lytle faith? Then he arose and rebuked the wyndes and the see, and there folowed a greate calme. ²⁷ But the men marueyled, sayinge: what maner of man is this, that both wyndes and see obey hym?

¹⁰ The chylde grewe, & she brought it vnto Pharaos daughter, & it was made hyr sonne, & she called the name of it Moses, because (sayde she) I toke him out of the water.

¹⁶ He shall send downe from the heygth to fetch me, & shall take me out of many waters.

⁶ I sayde: I wyll confesse my synnes vnto the Lorde, & so thou forgauest the wyckednesse of my synne. Sela.

¹ To the chaunter: destroye not. The badge or arme of Dauid, when Saul sent and they dyd watch the house to kyll hym. Delyuer me from my enemyes (O God) defende me from them that ryse vp agaynst me. ² O delyuer me from the wycked doers, and saue me from the bloudthursty men.

⁴ The depe waters of the proude had gone euen ouer our soule. ⁵ But praysed be the Lorde, whych hath not geuen vs ouer for a praye vnto their teeth.

¹ A songe of the stayres. Out of the depe haue I called vnto the O Lorde, Lorde heare my voyce.

⁷ Sende downe thyne hande from aboue, delyuer me, & take me out of the great waters, from the hande of straunge chyldren,

² Yf thou goest thorow the water, I wilbe with the, that the stronge floudes shulde not pluck the awaye. And yf thou walckest thorowe the fyre, it shall not burne the, and the flame shall not kyndle vpon the.

⁵⁴ They poured water vpon my heade, then thought I: nowe am I vndone.

¹ And Dauid spake the wordes of thys songe vnto the Lorde, what tyme the Lorde had delyuered him out of the hande of all his enemyes, and out of the hande of Saul.

⁷ Up Lorde, & helpe me, O my God, for thou smyttest all myne enemyes vpon the cheke bone: thou hast broken the teeth of the vngodly.

¹⁷ Not wythstandynge the Lorde, assysted me, and strengthed me, that by me the preachynge shulde be fulfylled to the vtmost, and that all the Gentyls shulde heare. And I was delyuered out of the mouth of the lyon.

¹¹ Saul also sent messengers vnto Dauids house, to watch him, and to sleye him in the mornynge. And Michol Dauids wyfe tolde it him, sayinge: If thou saue not thy selfe this night, to morowe thou wilt be slayne. ¹² And so Michol lett Dauid downe thorowe a wyndowe, and he went, & fled, and was saued. ¹³ And then she toke an Image and layed it in the bed, and put a pyllowe stuffed with goates hearre vnder the heed of it, and couered it with a clothe. ¹⁴ And when Saul sent messengers to fetche Dauid, she sayde, he is sycke. ¹⁵ And Saul sent the messengers agayne to se Dauid, sayinge: bringe him to me, bed & all, that I maye slaye him. ¹⁶ And when the messengers were come in: Beholde, there laye an ymage in the bed, with a pyllowe of goates heare vnder the heed of it. ¹⁷ And Saul sayde vnto Michol: why hast thou mocked me so, and sent awaye myne enemy that he is escaped? Michol answered Saul. For he sayde vnto me, let me go, or elles I wyll kyll the.

²⁶ And when Saul hearde that, he folowed after Dauid in the wildernesse of Maon. And Saul & his men went on the one syde of the mountayne, & Dauid & his men on the other syde. And Dauid toke thought, how to get from Saul. For Saul & his men compased Dauid & his men, rounde about, to take them. ²⁷ But there cam a messenger to Saul, saying Hast the, & come, for the Philistines are come into the land.

¹⁰ But Absalom sent spyes thorowe out all the tribes of Israel sayenge: as sone as ye heare the voyce of the trompet blowe, ye shall saye: Absalom raigneth kynge in Hebron. ¹¹ And with Absalom went two hundred men out of Ierusalem, that were called. And they went wt pure hertes, not knowinge of any thynge. ¹² And Absalom sent also for Ahithophel the Gilonite Dauids counseller, that he shulde come out of hys cytie Gilo, whyle he offered sacrifyces. And there was wrought stronge treason. For the people went and increased wt Absalom in multitude. ¹³ And there cam a messenger to Dauid & sayd: the hertes of the men of Israel are turned after Absalom.

¹⁸ They preuented me in the daye of my trouble: but the Lorde was my vpholder. ¹⁹ He brought me forth also into a place of liberty: he brought me forth, euen because he had a fauoure vnto me.

⁴ Yee though I walke thorowe the valleye of the shadow of death, I wyll feare no euell, for thou art wt me thy rodde & thy staffe comforte me.

²⁰ Therfore will I prayse the and thy faythfulnesse, O God, playinge vpon an instrument of musick, vnto the wyll I synge vpon the harpe, O thou holy one of Israell. ²¹ My lyppes wylbe fayne, whan I synge vnto the:

¹⁰ All nacions compased me rounde about, but in the name of the Lorde will I destroy them. ¹¹ They kept me in on euery syde, they kept me in (I saye) on euery syde, but in the name of the Lorde, I wyll destroye them. ¹² They came aboute me lyke bees, and are extincte, euen as the fyre amonge the thornes, for in the name of the Lorde I wyl destroye them. ¹³ Thou hast thrust sore at me, that I myght fall, but the Lorde was my helpe.

¹⁹ Thy deed men shall lyue, euen wt my body shall they rise agayne. Awake and syng ye that dwell in dust. For thy dewe is euen as the dewe of herbes, and the earth shall cast out them that be vnder her.

¹⁰ Therfore, whoso feareth the Lord among you, let him heare the voyce of his seruaunt, Whoso walketh in darcknesse, and no lyght shyneth vpon him, lett hym put hys trust in the name of the Lorde, and holde him by his God.

³⁹ They that passed by, reuyled him, waggynge their heades, ⁴⁰ and sayinge: thou that destroydest the temple of God and dyddest bylde it in thre dayes, saue thy selfe If thou be the sonne of God, come downe from the crosse. ⁴¹ Like wyse also the hye prestes, mocking him with the Scribes and elders sayde: ⁴² He saued other, him selfe can he not saue. If he be the kynge of Israel: let him now come doune from the crosse, & we will beleue him. ⁴³ He trusted in God, let him delyuer him now, yf he wyll haue him: for he sayde, I am the sonne of God. ⁴⁴ The theues also, which were crucifyed with him, cast the same in his tethe.

²² And than he departed thense, and dygged another well for the which they stroue not: therfore called he it Rehoboth, sayinge: the Lorde hath nowe made vs rowme, that we maye encrease vpon the erth.

²⁶ But and yf the Lorde thus saye: I haue no lust vnto the, beholde, here am I, let him do wyth me, what semeth good in his eyes.

¹⁰ And Iabes called on the God of Israel, sayinge: If thou wylt blesse me in dede, and enlarge my coastes, and shalt let thyne hande be with me. and wylt kepe me from euell that it hurt me not? And God graunted hym hys desyre.

⁸ He trusted in God that he wolde delyuer him: let him delyuer him, yf he wyll haue him.

⁸ I wyll be glad and reioyse in thy mercy: for thou hast consydred my trouble, & hast knowne my soule in aduersytees.

⁵ I called vpon the Lord in trouble, and the Lord herd me at large.

¹¹ But the Lordes delyte is in them that feare hym, and put their trust in hys mercy.

⁴ For the Lorde hath pleasure in hys people, and helpeth the meke harted.

¹ Beholde, this is my seruaunte vpon whom I leane, myne electe, In whom my soule is pacifyed. I haue geuen hym my sprete, that he maye shewe forth iudgement and equitye among the Gentiles.

¹⁶ For Israel is gone backe lyke a wanton cowe. The Lorde therfore shall make her fede, as the lambe that goeth astraye.

¹⁷ And loo, there came a voyce from heauen saienge. Thys is my beloued sonne, in whom I am well pleased.

⁵ Whyle he yet spake, behold, a bright cloude shadowed them And beholde, there came a voyce out of the cloude whych sayd this is my beloued sonne in whom I delyte heare hym.

⁴³ He trusted in God, let him delyuer him now, yf he wyll haue him: for he sayde, I am the sonne of God.

³² This Iesus hath God raysed vp, wherof we all are witnesses. ³³ Sence now that he by the ryght hande of God exalted is, and hath receaued of the father the promyse of the holy Goost, he hath sheed forth thys which ye now se and heare. ³⁴ For Dauid is not ascendyd into heuen: but he sayeth: The Lord sayde to my Lorde: syt thou on my ryght hand, ³⁵ vntyll I make thy fooes thy fote stole. ³⁶ So therfore, let all the house of Israel knowe for a suerty, that God hath made that same Iesus (whom ye haue crucified) Lorde and Chryst.

²³ The Lorde reward euery man accordyng to his ryghtwesnesse & fayth: for the Lordde delyuered the into my hand thys daye, but I wolde not laye myne hand vpon the Lordes anoynted.

²⁵ And the Lorde dyd to me agayne, accordynge to my ryghtwesnes, euen after my purenesse in his eyesyght.

³² then herken thou in heauen, and worke and iudge thy seruauntes, that thou condempne the vngodly to bryng hys waye vpon his head, and iustifye the righteous to geue hym accordyng to hys ryghteousnesse.

⁹ The righteous also will kepe hys waye, and he that hath cleane handes, wyll euer be stronger and stronger.

³ O Lorde my God, yf I haue done any soche thynge, or yf there be any wyckednes in my handes. ⁴ Yf I haue rewarded euyll vnto him that dealt frendly with me, yee, I haue delyuered hym, that without any cause is myne enemye.

⁸ The Lorde shall iudge the people geue sentence with me, O Lorde, accordyng to my ryghtewesnes, and accordynge to the innocencye that is in me.

²⁰ The Lorde shall rewarde me after my righteous dealing: accordinge to the clennes of my handes shall he recompense me. ²¹ Because I haue kepte the wayes of the Lorde: and haue not forsaken wyckedlye my God. ²² For I haue an eye vnto all hys lawes: & wyll nott cast out hys commaundementes fro me. ²³ I was also vncorrupte before him: and eschued myne awne wickednes. ²⁴ Therfore shall the Lord rewarde me after my righteous dealing: and according vnto the clennes of my handes in hys eye syght. ²⁵ With the holy thou shalt be holy, and wt a perfecte man thou shalt be perfect.

¹¹ Moreouer, by them is thy seruaunt taught, & in kepynge of them there is greate rewarde.

⁴ Euen he that hath cleane handes & a pure hert: & that hath not lyfte vp his mynde vnto vanite, ner sworne to disceaue.

⁵⁸ Therfore my deare brethren, be ye stedfast and vnmouable, alwayes ryche in the worke of the Lorde, for as moch as ye knowe, how that youre labour, is not in vayne in the Lorde.

⁸ Drawe nye to God, and he will drawe nye to you. Clense your handes ye siners, & pourge your hertes ye waueryng mynded.

¹⁹ I knowe this also, that he will commaunde his chyldren and hys houshold after him, that they kepe the waye of the Lorde, and do after ryghte and conscyence, that the Lorde maye bringe vpon Abraham all that he hath spoken vnto him.

¹⁵ And Moses waxed very angry, & sayde vnto the Lorde. Turne not thou vnto theyr offeryng. I haue not taken so muche as an asse from them, neyther haue I hurte any of them.

³ Beholde, here I am: beare recorde of me before the Lorde and before hys anoynted: Whose oxe haue I taken? or whose Asse haue I taken? whom haue I done wrong to? Whom haue I hurt? Or of whose hande haue I receaued any brybe, to blynde myne eyes therwyth? & I wyll restore it you agayne.

¹⁰ But as for my waye, he knoweth it: and tryeth me as the golde in the fyre. ¹¹ My fote doth kepe his path, his hye waye haue I holden, and will not go out of it. ¹² I will not forsake the commaundement of his lippes, but loke what he charged me with his mouth, that haue I shutt vp in my herte.

³ The wordes of hys mouth are vnryghteous, and full of disceate: he hath left of to behaue hym selfe wysely and to do good.

¹ Blessed are those that be vndefyled in the waye: and walke in the lawe of the Lorde.

⁵ As for soche as turne backe vnto their awne wyckednesse, the Lorde, shall leade them forth wyth the euyll doers, but peace shall be vpon Israel.

¹ A songe of the stayres. Blessed are all they that feare the Lord, and walke in hys wayes.

³² Therfore herken vnto me, O ye chyldren, blessed are they that kepe my wayes.

⁶ which starte a backe from the Lord, and nether seke after the Lord ner regarde hym.

¹⁰ If ye kepe my commaundementes, ye shall byde in my loue, euen as I haue kepte my fathers commaundementes, & byde in hys loue.

¹² For oure reioysinge is this, euen the testimony of oure conscience, that in synglenes and godly purenes, & not in fleshly wysdom, but by the grace of God, we haue had oure conuersacyon in the world, and most of all to you wardes.

³⁸ But the iust shall lyue by faith. And yf he withdrawe him selfe, my soule shall haue no pleasure in him. ³⁹ It is not we that withdrawe our selues vnto dampnacion, but we partayne vnto fayth, to the wynnynge of the soule.

¹ These are the commaundementes, ordinaunces and lawes whych the Lord youre God commaunded me to teach you that ye might do them in the lande whether ye go to possesse it: ² namely, that thou myghtest feare the Lorde thy God, and kepe all hys ordinaunces and hys commaundementes whych I commaunde the: thou and thy sonne, and thy sonnes sonne all dayes of thy lyfe, that thy dayes maye be prolonged.

⁶ And these wordes which I commaunde the thys daye, shalbe in thine herte, ⁷ and thou shalt shewe them vnto thy chyldren, and shalt talke of them when thou art at home in thyne house, and as thou walkest by the waye, and when thou lyest doune, and when thou rysest vp: ⁸ and thou shalt bynde them for a sygne vpon thine hande. And they shalbe warnynges betwene thyne eyes ⁹ and thou shalt write them vpon the postes of thy house and vpon thy gates.

¹² If ye herken vnto these lawes, and obserue & do them, the Lord thy God also shall kepe vnto the the poyntement, and the mercy which he sware vnto thy fathers.

¹¹ Beware, that thou forgett not the Lorde thy God, that thou woldest not kepe hys commaundmentes, hys lawes & his ordinaunces whych I commaunde the thys daye y

⁸ The statutes of the Lorde are right and reioyse the hert, the commaundement of the Lorde is pure, and geueth light vnto the eyes. ⁹ The feare of the Lorde is cleane, and endureth for euer: the iudgementes of the Lorde are true and ryghteous all together.

⁶ So shall I not be confounded, whyle I haue respecte vnto al thy commaundementes.

¹³ Wyth my lyppes haue I bene tellynge of all the iudgementes of thy mouth.

³⁰ I haue chosen the waye of truth, and thy iudgementes haue I layed before me.

⁸⁶ All thy commaundementes are true, they persecute me falsly, O be thou my helpe.

¹⁰² I haue not shrynked from thy iudgementes, for thou teachest me.

¹²⁸ Therfore holde I streyght all thy commaundementes and all false wayes I vtterly abhorre.

⁶ they were, both ryghteous before God, and walked in all the lawes and ordynaunces of the Lorde, that no man coulde fynde fawte with them.

¹⁴ Ye are my frendes, yf ye do whatsoeuer I commaunde you.

⁹ These are the generacyons of Noah Noah was iust & perfect in his generacions, and walked wt God.

¹ Abram was nynetye yere olde & .ix. & the Lorde apeared to Abram & sayde vnto hym: I am the almyghtie God: walke before me and be thou perfecte.

¹ In the lande of Hus there was a man whose name was Iob: & the same was a perfect & iust man, soch a one as feared God & exchued euell.

⁶ But lo, thou requirest treuth in the inward partes, and shalt make me to vnderstonde wysdome secretly.

²³ Kepe thyne herte with all diligence, for there vpon hangeth lyfe.

⁴⁷ Iesus sawe Nathanael comynge to him, & sayeth of him: Beholde a ryght Israelyte, in whom is no gyle.

¹¹ Seynge then that we knowe, how the Lorde is to be feared, we fare fayre wyth men. For we are knowen well ynough vnto God. I trust also that we are knowen in youre consciences.

⁴ accordinge as he had chosen vs in hym, before the foundacions of the worlde were layde, that we shulde be holy, and without blame before hym, thorowe loue.

¹ Wherfore, let vs also (seyng that we are compassed with so great a multitude of witnesses) laye awaye all that presseth doune, and the synne that hangeth so fast on, let vs runne with pacience vnto the battayle that is set before vs,

²¹ The Lord will rewarde me accordinge to my ryghtwysnesse: accordynge to the purenesse of my handes will he recompense me.

²¹ For euery mans wayes are open in the syght of the Lorde, and he pondreth all theyr goynges.

¹⁰ Byd the ryghteous do well, for they shall enioye the frutes of theyr studies.

⁷ that is to saye, prayse, honoure and immortalite, to them whych contynue in good doyng; and seke immortalite. ⁸ But vnto them that are rebelles, and that do not obey the trueth, but folowe vnryghteousnes, shall come indignacyon and wrath,

¹⁰ For we must all appeare before the iudgement seate of Christ, that euery man maye receaue the workes of hys body accordynge to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

⁷ Blessed are the mercyful: for they shall obteyne mercy.

¹³ For he shal haue iudgement without mercy that sheweth no mercy: and mercy reioyseth agaynst iudgement.

¹¹ Nowe I knowe that the Lorde is greater then all goddes, for in the thynge wherby they dealt cruelly wyth them, are they them selues peryshed.

²³ And yf ye maye not be refourmed by these thynges but shall walke contrarye vnto me, ²⁴ then wyll I also walke contrarye vnto you, and wyll punish you yet seuen tymes for youre synnes. ²⁵ And I wyll sende a swerde vpon you, that shall auenge my testament And when ye are gathered together wythin youre cyties, I wyll sende the pestilence amonge you, and ye shalbe delyuered into the hande of the enemye. ²⁶ And when I haue broken the staffe of youre bread: ten wyues shall bake youre bread in one ouen, and they shall delyuer you youre bread agayne by weyght ye shall eate, and not be satisfyed. ²⁷ And yf ye wyll not yet for all thys herken vnto me, but shall walke agaynst me, ²⁸ I will walke contrarye vnto you also in indignacyon, and wyll chastice you seuen tymes for youre synnes.

⁵⁸ If thou wylt not kepe and do all the wordes of thys lawe (that are wrytten in thys boke,) and feare thys gloryous and fearfull name of the Lorde thy God: ⁵⁹ the Lorde will sende vnto the and thy seed, greate plages and of longe continuaunce, ⁶⁰ euell sycknesses and of longe duraunce. Moreouer he will bringe vpon the all the diseases of Egypte, and those whych thou wast afrayed of shall cleaue vnto the. ⁶¹ And all maner syckenesses, and all maner plages whych are not wrytten in the boke of thys lawe, wyll the Lorde brynge vpon the, vntyll he bringe the to noughte.

²⁶ With the cleane thou shalt be cleane: and with the frowarde thou shalt lerne frowardnes.

⁹ Wo be vnto him that stryueth wt his maker, the potsherde with the potter. Sayeth the claye to the potter. What makest thou? or thy worke serueth for nothing?

⁸ Blessed are the pure in herte: for they shall se God.

⁷ And the Lorde sayde: I haue surely sene the trouble of my people whych are in Egypte, and haue herde theyr crye from the face of their taskemasters. For I knowe their sorowes, ⁸ and am come downe to delyuer them out of the hande of the Egyptians, and to brynge them out of that lande vnto a good lande and a large: and vnto a lande that floweth wyth mylcke and hony: euen vnto the place of the Cananites and Hethites, and Amorites, and Pherezites, and Heuites, and of the Iebusites.

¹⁴ or els I will at this tyme sende all my plages vpon thine herte, and vpon thy seruauntes and on thy people, that thou mayest knowe, that there is none lyke me in all the earth. ¹⁵ For nowe I wyll stretch out my hande, that I maye smyte the and thy people with pestilence: and thou shalt perysh from the earth. ¹⁶ And in very dede for this cause haue I kepte the, for to shewe the my power: and that they might declare my name thorowout all the world. ¹⁷ Yet thou exaltest thy selfe agaynste my people, that thou wylt not let them go:

³ And so Moses and Aaron came vnto Pharao, & sayd vnto him: Thus sayth the Lorde God of the Ebrues: howe longe shall it be or thou wylt submitte thy selfe vnto me? Let my people go, that they maye serue me.

¹¹ powre out the indignacion of thy wrath: se that thou cast downe all the proude, ¹² loke well, that thou makest all soch as be stubburne, to obeye: treade downe all the vngodly in their place,

⁵ Nowe for the comforles troubles sake of the neadye, & because of the deape fyghthing of the poore, I will vp (sayeth the Lorde) and wyll helpe euery one, from hym that swelleth agaynst hym, and wyll set them at rest.

¹² For he shall delyuer the poore when he cryeth: the neady also and him that hath no helper. ¹³ He shalbe fauorable to the simple and neady: and shall preserue the soules of the poore.

⁶ For though the Lorde be hye, yet hath he respecte vnto the lowly: as for the proude, he beholdeth him a farre of.

¹² Sure I am, that the Lorde wyll auenge the poore, and mainteyne the cause of the helpeles.

⁴ A presumpteous loke, a proude stomacke: and the plowynge of the vngodly is synne.

¹¹ Which casteth downe the high lookes of presumptuous personnes, and bringeth lowe the pryde of man, and the Lorde only shall be exalted in that daye. ¹² For the daye of the Lord of Hostes shall go ouer al pride and presumption, vpon all them that exalte them selues, and shall brynge them all downe:

¹⁷ And it shall brynge downe the pryde of man, and laye mans presumptuousnesse full lowe, and the Lorde shall only haue the vyctory in that daye.

¹⁵ Thus hath man a fall, and is brought lowe, and the hygh loke of the proude shalbe layde downe.

²³ But thou Sennaherib. whom hast thou defyed and blasphemed? Agaynst whom hast thou lifted vp thy voyce, and exalted thy proude lookes? euen agaynst the holy one of Israel.

²⁸ I knowe thy wayes, thy goinge forth and thy commynge home, yee, & thy madnesse agaynst me. ²⁹ Therfore thy furiousnes against me, and thy pryde is come before me. I wyll put my rynge in thy nose, and my brydle byt in the chawes of the, and turne the about, euen the same waye thou camest.

¹ The sprete of the Lorde God is vpon me, for the Lorde hath anoynted me, and sent me, to preach good tydynges vnto the poore, that I myght bynde vp the wounded hertes, that I myght preach delyueraunce to the captyue, and open the preson to them that are bounde: ² that I myght declare the acceptable yeare of the Lorde, and the daye of the vengeaunce of oure God: that I myght comforte all them that are in heuynesse, ³ that I myght geue vnto them that mourne in Sion, that I myght geue I saye, bewty in the steade of ashes, ioyfull oyntement for syghthinge, pleasaunt rayment for an heuy mynde: That they myght be called trees of ryghteousnesse, a plantynge of the Lorde for hym to reioyce in.

⁹ In their troubles he was also troubled wt them, and the angell that went forth from hys presence, delyuered them: Of very loue & kyndnesse that he had vnto them, redemed he them. He hath borne them, and caryed them vp euer, sence the worlde beganne.

³⁷ Then dyd I Nabuchodonosor, loue, magnifye and prayse the kynge of heauen: for all his worckes are true, and hys wayes ryght. As for those that go on proudly, he is able to brynge them downe.

³ Blessed are the poore in sprete, for theyrs is the kyngdome of heauen.

⁶ but geueth more grace. ⁷ Submit your selues therfore to God: but resyst the deuyll, and he will flye from you.

⁵ Lykewyse ye yonger, submyt your selues vnto the elder: Submit youre selues euery man, one to another, knyt youre selues together in lowlynes of mynde. For God resisteth the proude, and geueth grace to the humbl ⁶ Submyt youre selues therfore vnder the myghty hande of God, that he maye exalte you, when the tyme is come.

¹⁷ But Abisai the sonne of Zaruia succoured hym, and smote the Philistine, and killed him. Then the seruauntes of Dauid sware vnto him, sayinge: Thou shalt go no moare out with vs to battell, that thou quench not the lyght of Israel.

³ when his light shyned vpon my head: when I wente after the same lyght and shynynge, euen thorowe the darcknesse.

⁶ There be many that saye: who wyll shewe vs any good? Lorde lyfte thou vp the lyght of thy countenaunce vpon vs.

²⁸ Thou also shalt lighte my candelle: the Lorde my God shall make my darcknes to be light.

¹ Of Dauid. The Lorde is my lyght and my saluacyon: whom then shall I feare? the Lorde is the strength of my lyfe: of whom then shall I be afrayed?

¹¹ There is spronge vp a lyght for the ryghteous, and a ioyfull gladnesse for soch as be true herted.

⁴ Unto the godly there aryseth vp lyght in the darcknesse he is mercyfull, louyng and ryghteous.

¹⁹ The Sunne shall neuer be thy daye lyght, and the lyght of the Moone shall neuer shyne vnto the: but the Lorde him selfe shalbe thyne euerlastyng lyght, and thy God shalbe thy glory. ²⁰ Thy Sunne shall neuer go downe, and thy Moone shall not be hydde, for the Lorde hym selfe shalbe thy euerlastynge lyght, and thy sorowfull dayes shalbe ended.

⁹ I wyll beare the punishement of the Lord (for why, I haue offended him) tyll he syt in iudgement vpon my cause, & se that I haue right. He wyll bryng me forth to the lyght, & I shall se his rightuousnesse.

² But vnto you that feare my name, shall that Sonne of ryghteousnesse aryse, and health shalbe vnder his wynges: ye shal go forth, and multiplie as the fat calues,

¹² Then spake Iesus agayne vnto them, saying: I am the lyght of the worlde. He that foloweth me, doth not walke in darcknes but shall haue the light of lyfe.

⁴⁶ I am come a lyght into the worlde: that whosoeuer beleueth on me, shulde not byde in darcknes.

²³ And the cytie hath no nede of the sonne, nether of the mone to lighten it. For the brightnes of God dyd lyght it, and the lambe was the lyght of it.

²⁹ For in the I shall disconfyte an hoost of men: and wt the helpe of my God I shall leape ouer the wall.

¹⁰ All nacions compased me rounde about, but in the name of the Lorde will I destroy them. ¹¹ They kept me in on euery syde, they kept me in (I saye) on euery syde, but in the name of the Lorde, I wyll destroye them. ¹² They came aboute me lyke bees, and are extincte, euen as the fyre amonge the thornes, for in the name of the Lorde I wyl destroye them.

³⁷ Neuerthelesse, in all these thynges we ouercome thorowe hym that loued vs.

¹³ I can do all thinges thorowe Christ which strengtheneth me.

³ God is my strength, in him will I trust: he is my shylde, and the horne of my saluacyon: my worshyp and my refuge: my sauiour, thou shalt saue me from wronge.

⁷ I wyll preach the lawe, wherof the Lorde hath sayd vnto me: thou arte my sonne, thys daye haue I begotten the.

⁶ The wordes of the Lorde are pure wordes euen as the syluer, whych from earth is tryed and purifyed seuen tymes in the fyre.

³⁰ The waye of God is an vndefyled waye the worde of the Lorde also is tryed in the fyre: he is the defender of all them that putt their trust in him.

² Laye hande vpon the shilde & buckler, and stande vp to helpe me.

⁴ He shall defende the vnder hys wynges, and thou shalte be safe vnder hys fethers: hys faythfulnesse and trueth shall be thy shylde and buckler.

¹⁴⁰ Thy worde is tried to the vttermost, and thy seruaunte loueth it.

⁴⁸ ye shall therfore be perfecte, euen as your father which is in heauen is perfecte.

³ and they songe the songe of Moses the seruaunt of God, & the songe of the lambe, sayinge: Gret and maruelous are thy workes: Lorde God almyghtye, iuste & true are thy wayes, thou Kyng of Saynctes.

³¹ For their God is not as oure God oure enemyes also themselues are iudges.

³⁹ Se nowe, howe that I I alone am God, & there is none but I: I kyll, and wyll make alyue: I wounde, and I wyll heale: nether is there any that can delyuer out of my hande.

² And he sayde: the Lorde is my rocke, and my castel, and my delyuerer. ³ God is my strength, in him will I trust: he is my shylde, and the horne of my saluacyon: my worshyp and my refuge: my sauiour, thou shalt saue me from wronge.

⁶ Thus hath the Lorde spoken: euen the Kynge of Israel, and his redemer, the Lorde of Hostes: I am the fyrst and the last, and without me is there no God.

⁸ Be not abashed nor afrayde. For haue not I euer tolde you hytherto, and warned you? Ye can beare me recorde youre selues. Is there any God excepte me? or any maker, that I shulde not knowe hym?

⁵ Euen I the Lord before whom there is none other: for without me ther is no God. I haue prepared the or euer thou knewest me, ⁶ that I myght be knowne from the rysing of the sunne to the goynge downe of the same, that all is nothynge without me. For I am the Lorde, and there is els none.

⁶ But there is none lyke vnto the, O Lorde, & great is the name of thy power. ⁷ Who wolde not feare the? O kyng of the Gentils for thyne is the domynion. For amonge all the wyse men of the Gentyles, and in all theyr kyngdomes, there is none that maye be lickened vnto the.

¹⁶ Neuertheles, Iacobs porcyon is no soch: but it is he, that hath made all thynges, & Israel is the rodd of his inherytaunce. The Lorde of Hostes is his name.

² The Lord is my strength and prayse, and he is become my saluacion. He is my God, and I wyll glorify hym: my fathers God, & I wyll exalte hym.

¹³ Thou shalt be perfecte therfore in the syght of the Lorde thy God.

² And he sayde: the Lorde is my rocke, and my castel, and my delyuerer. ³ Is it any vauntage to the Allmyghtye that thou art ryghteous? Or shall it profyte hym, that thou makest thy wayes perfect?

³² It is God that gyrdeth me wt strength of warre, and maketh my waye parfecte.

⁷ Praysed be the Lorde, for he hath hearde the voyce of myne humble peticions. ⁸ The Lorde is my strength & my shylde: my hert hath trusted in him, & I am helped: therfore my herte daunseth for ioye, and in my songe will I prayse him.

³ And be thou my stronge rocke, and a house of defence, that thou mayest saue me. ⁴ For thou art my stronge rocke, & my castell: Be thou also my guyde, & leade me for thy names sake.

² O let me haue vnderstandynge in the waye of godlynesse: Whan wylt thou come vnto me? I wyll walcke in my house with a perfecte herte.

⁶ Myne eyes loke vnto soch as be faithfull in the lande, that they maye dwell with me: who so leadeth a godly lyfe, he shalbe my seruaunt.

¹⁰ be not afrayed, for I am wt the. Melt not away as waxe, for I am thy God, to strength the, helpe the, & to kepe the wt this ryght hande of myne.

¹² I wyll comforte them in the Lorde, that they maye walke in his name, sayeth the Lorde.

⁹ For this thynge besought I the Lorde thryse, that it might departe from me.

¹⁰ Finally my brethren, be stronge thorowe the Lorde and thorowe the power of his myght.

²¹ make you parfect in all good workes, to do hys wyll, and bryng to passe, that the thyng which ye do, maye be pleasaunt in his syght thorowe Iesus Christ. To whom be prayse for euer whyle the world endureth. Amen.

¹³ He caried him vp to an hye lande, that he myght eate the encrease of the feldes, And he fedd him wyth honye out of the rocke, and with oyle out of the most harde stone.

²⁵ Thy dwellynge be yron and brasse, and thyne age be as thy youth.

¹⁸ And there were thre sonnes of Zaruiah there: Ioab, Abisai and Asahel. And Asahel was as lyght of fote as a wylde Roo,

¹⁶ He it is, that shall dwell on hye: whose sauegarde shalbe in a bulwarcke of rockes, to hym shalbe geuen meate, & hys waters shall not fayle.

¹⁴ Then shalt thou haue thy pleasure in the Lord, and I wyll carye the hye aboue the earth, and fede the wyth the herytage of Iacob thy father: for the Lordes awne mouth hath so promysed.

¹⁹ The Lord God is my strength, he shal make my fete as the fete of hertes: & he which geueth the victory, shal bring me to my hye places synginge vpon my psalmes.

³³ He maketh my fete lyke hertes fete: and setteth me vp on hye. ³⁴ He teacheth myne handes to fyght, & myne armes shall breake euen a bow of steele.

⁹ He maketh warres to ceasse in all the worlde: he breaketh the bowe & knappeth the speare in sonder, & burneth the charettes in the fyre.

¹ Of Dauid. Blessed be the Lord my strengthe, which teacheth my handes to warre, & my fyngers to fyght.

³ As for thy bowe, I will smyte it out of thy left hande, and cast thyne arowes out of thy ryght hande.

⁹ They that dwel in the cities of Israell, shall go forth and set fyre vpon the weapens, and burne them: shyldes and speres, bowes and arowes, bylles & clubbes: seuen yeares shal they be burnynge therof, ¹⁰ so that they shal els bringe no stickes from the felde, nether haue nede to hewe downe eny out of the wodde. For they shal haue weapens ynowe to burne. They shal robbe those that robbed them, & spoyle those that spoyled them sayeth the Lord God.

² And I wyll make of the a greate people, and wyll blesse the, & make thy name greate, that thou mayest be euen a blessynge.

¹⁷ that in blessynge I wyll blesse the, and in multiplienge I wyll multiplie thy seed as the starres of heauen & as the sande which is vpon the see syde. And thy seed shall possesse the gate of hys enemies.

³⁵ Thou hast geuen me the defence of thy saluacion: thy right hande also shall holde me vp, and thy louynge correccion shall make me greate.

¹⁴ The Lorde shall encrease you more and more: you, & youre children.

¹⁶ Aboue all, take to you the shylde of fayth, wherwith ye maye quenche all the fyrie dartes of the wycked.

⁹ He wyll kepe the fete of hys sayntes, and the wycked shall kepe sylence in darcknesse, & in his awne myght shall no man be stronge.

¹ To hym that excelleth in musick, a psalme of Dauid. Heare me, when I call, O God, of my ryghtewesnes: thou hast set me at lybertye, when I was in trouble: haue mercy vpon me, and herken vnto my prayer.

⁵ O holde thou vp my goynges in thy pathes, that my fote steppes slyppe not.

³⁶ Thou shalt make rowme ynough vnder me for to go, that my fote steppes shall not slyde.

¹⁸ But when I sayd: my fote hath slipped, thy mercy (O Lord) helde me vp.

³ He wyll not suffre thy fote to be moued, and he that kepeth the, wyll not slepe.

¹² So that yf thou goest therin, there shall no straytenes hynder the: and when thou runnest, thou shalte not fall.

¹⁸ And whan the Philistines cam, they layde them a long in the valeye of Raphaim. ¹⁹ And Dauid asked councell of the Lorde sayeng: shall I go vp to the Philistines? wilt thou deliuer them into my handes? And the lord answered vnto Dauid: go vp, for I will doutlesse delyuer the Philistines into thy handes. ²⁰ And Dauid cam to the playne of Perazim, and smote them there, and sayd: the Lorde hath deuided myne enemyes asondre before me, as waters be deuyded asondre. And therfore, the name of the place was called: the playne of Perazim: ²¹ And there they left their Images, & Dauid & his men toke them vp. ²² And the Philistines cam yet agayne, and layd them selues in the valeye of Rephaim. ²³ And whan Dauid asked at the Lord: He answered: Thou shalt not go vp: but compasse them on the backsyde, & come vpon them ouer agaynst the Peretrees. ²⁴ And when thou hearest the noyse of a thing going in the toppe of the Peretrees, then remoue. For then shall the Lord go out before the, to smyte the hoste of the Philistines. ²⁵ And Dauid did as the Lord had commaunded hym, & smote the Philistines from Geba, vntyll thou come to Gazer.

¹ After this it fortuned that Dauid smote the Philistines, and subdued them, & toke the brydell of bondage out of the hande of the Philistines. ² And he smote the Moabites & measured them with a lyne, & cast them downe to the grounde. Euen wyth two lynes measured he them whom he slue, and the length of one lyne saued he alyue. And so becam the Moabites Dauids seruauntes, & payed trybute. Dauid smote also,

¹³ And Dauid gat hym a name after that he returned & had smytten of the Siriens in the valeye of Salt .xviii. thousand men. ¹⁴ And he put kepers in Edom, euen thorow out al Edom put he soudyoures, & all they of Edom becam Dauids seruauntes, And the Lorde kept Dauid whatsoeuer he toke in hand.

¹⁴ And when the children of Ammon saw that the Sirians were fled, then fled they also before Abisay, and entred into the citye. And so Ioab returned from the children of Ammon, & came to Ierusalem.

⁸ All thyne enemies shall fele thy hand: thy ryght hand shall fynde out them that hate the. ⁹ Thou shalt make them lyke a fyrye ouen in tyme of thy wrath: the Lorde shall destroye them in hys displeasure, and the fyre shall consume them.

³⁷ I wyll folowe vpon myne enemies, & ouertake them: neyther wyll I turne agayne, tyll I haue destroyed them.

¹ A Psalme of Dauid. The Lorde sayde vnto my Lorde: Syt thou on my ryght hand, vntill I make thine enemyes thy fotestole.

⁵ The Lorde vpon thy ryght hande, shall wounde euen kynges in the daye of his wrath. ⁶ He shall be iudge among the Heathen, he shall fyll the places with deed bodyes, & smyte a sonder the heades ouer diuerse countres.

¹ For marck, the daye commeth that shal bnrne as an ouen: and all the proude, yee, and all soch as do wyckednesse, shalbe strawe, & the daye that is for to come, shall burne them vp (saieth the Lord of hostes) so that it shal leaue them nether rote ner braunche.

³ ye shal treade downe the vngodly: for they shalbe lyke the asshes vnder the soles of youre fete in the daye that I shall make, sayeth the Lorde of hoostes.

⁴⁹ And Dauid put his hande in hys bagge, and toke out a stone, and slange it, & smote the Philistine in his forheed, that the stone souncke into his forheed and he felle grouelynge to the erth. ⁵⁰ And so Dauid ouercame the Philistine with a slyng and a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slue hym, euen whan Dauid had no swerde in hys hande. ⁵¹ But Dauid ranne, and stode vpon the Philistine, & toke hys swerde, and drue it out of hys sheth, and slue hym, & cutte of hys heed therwith. And when the Philistines sawe, that theyr champyon was deed they fled.

⁵ And so Dauid and his men went to keila, and fought with the Philistynes, & droue awaye their catell, and smote them with a great slaughter. And so Dauid saued the enhabiters of keila.

³⁹ Thou hast gyrded me with strength vnto the battayll, thou shalt throwe downe myne enemyes vnder me.

⁵ Thou art my kyng (O God) sende helpe vnto Iacob.

⁵ Euen I the Lord before whom there is none other: for without me ther is no God. I haue prepared the or euer thou knewest me,

¹⁴ Moreouer, those shall come knelyng vnto the, that haue vexed the: and all they that despysed the, shall fall downe at thy fote. Thou shalt be called the cytie of the Lorde, Sion the cytie of the holy one of Israel.

¹¹ strengthed with all myght, thorowe hys glorious power, vnto all pacience and longe sufferynge with ioyfulnes

⁹ & they songe a new songe, saying: thou art worthy to take the boke, & to open the seales therof: for thou wast kylled, & hast redemed vs by thy bloud out of all kynredes, & tonges, & people, & nacyons,

⁸ Iuda thou art he, whom thy brethren shall prayse. Thy hande shalbe in the necke of thyne enymies, thy fathers chyldren shall stoupe before the.

²⁷ I wyll sende my feare before the, and wyll trouble all the people whether thou shalt go. And I will make all thine enemyes turne theyr backes vnto the,

²⁴ And it fortuned, that when they brought oute those kynges vnto Iosua: Iosua called for all the men of Israell, and sayde vnto the chefe of the men of warre, which wente with hym: come nere, & put youre fete vpon the neckes of these kynges. And they cam neare: and put their fete vpon the neckes of them.

⁴⁰ Thou hast made myne enemyes also to turne theyr backes vpon me, & I shall destroye them that hate me. ⁴¹ They shall crye: but there shalbe none to helpe them: yee, euen vnto the Lord, shall they crye: but he shall nott heare them.

¹⁴ But hys cytesens hated hym, & sent a message after him, sayinge: we will not haue thys man to raygne ouer vs.

²⁷ Moreouer, those myne enemyes, (whych wolde not that I shuld raygne ouer them) brynge hyther, and slee them before me.

⁸ wyth flaminge fyre, whych shall rendre vengeaunce vnto them that knowe not God, and that obeye not the Gospell of oure Lorde Iesus Christ ⁹ which shalbe punysshed wyth euerlastynge damnacyon, from the presence of the Lorde, and from the glory of his power,

⁶ And whan Saul asked councell of the Lorde, the Lorde answered him not, nether hy dreames, nor by Urim nor yet by prophetes.

⁹ Doth God heare him the soner, when he crieth vnto him in hys necessite?

²⁸ Then shal they call vpon me, but I wyll not heare: they shall seke me early, but they shall not fynde me.

¹⁵ They lye vpon me as a burthen, and I am wery of beringe them. Whan ye holde out your handes, I will turne myne eyes from you. And though ye make many prayers, yet wil I heare nothynge at all, seyng your handes are ful of bloude.

³ Thou sonne of man: speake vnto the elders of Israel, & saye vnto them: Thus sayeth the Lord God: Are ye come hyther to aske eny thynge at me? As truly as I lyue (sayeth the Lorde)

⁴ Now the tyme shall come, that when they call vnto the Lorde, he shall not heare them, but hyde hys face from them, because that thorow theyr awne Imagynacyons they haue dealte so wyckedly.

²² Many wyll saye to me in that daye: Lord, Lorde, haue we not prophecyed thorow thy name? And thorow thy name haue cast out deuyls? And done many miraracles thorow thy name? ²³ And then wyll I knowledge vnto them. I neuer knewe you. Departe fro me, ye that worcke iniquyte.

²⁵ When the good man of the house is rysen vp, and hath shutt to the dore, and ye beginne to stonde without, and to knocke at the dore sayinge: Lorde, Lord, open vnto vs, and he answer and saye vnto you. (I knowe you not whence ye are) ²⁶ Then shall ye begyn to saye: we haue eaten & dronken in thy presence, & thou hast taught in oure stretes.

²⁶ I haue sayde: I will skater them abrode, and make the remembraunce of them to ceasse from amonge men.

⁷ Neither dyd he leaue of the people to Iehoahaz, but fyftye horsemen ten charettes, & ten thousande fotemen for the kynge of Siria destroyed them, and made them lyke thresshed dust.

⁴² I wyll beate them as small as the dust before the wynde: I will cast them out, as the claye in the stretes.

⁵ Let them be as the dust before the wynde, and the angell of the Lorde scatterynge them.

⁶ I shall sende hym amonge those ypocritish people, amonge the people that haue deserued my dysfauoures shall I send hym: that he may vtterly robbe them, spoyle them, and treade them downe lyke the myre in the strete.

¹⁵ Thou hast increased the people (O Lorde) thou hast increased the people, & thou art praysed: thou hast sent them farre of vnto all the coastes of the erth.

³⁵ then was the yron, the earth, the copper, the syluer and golde broken altogether in peces: and became lyke the chaffe of corne, that the wynde bloweth awaye from the somer floores, that they can no more be founde. But the stone that smote the ymage, became a greate mountayne, which fulfylleth the whole earth:

¹⁰ She that is myne enemy shal loke vpon it, & be confounded, which now saieth. Where is thy Lord God? Myne eyes shall beholde her, when she shalbe troden downe, as the claye in the stretes.

⁶ O get you forth, O fle from the lande of the north, sayth the Lorde, yee whome I haue scatred into the foure wyndes vnder heauen, sayth the Lorde.

⁵ They shalbe as the gyauntes, which in the batell treade downe the myre vpon the stretes. They shal fyght for the Lorde shalbe wyth them, so that the horsmen shalbe confounded.

²⁴ And they shall fall thorow the edge of the swearde, and shalbe ledd awaye captyue into all nacions. And Ierusalem shalbe troden downe of the gentyls, vntyll the tyme of the gentyls be fulfylled.

¹³ And the Lord shall set the before and not behynde, & thou shalt be aboue only, and not beneth: yf that thou herken vnto the commaundementes of the Lorde thy God, which I commaunde the thys daye, to kepe and to do them.

¹ There was longe warre betwene the howse of Saul, and the howse of Dauid. But Dauid waxed stronger and stronger, & the house of Saul waxed weaker and weaker.

¹ Then cam all the trybes of Israel to Dauid, vnto Hebron and sayd, Beholde, we are of thy bone, and of thy fleshe.

¹ After this it fortuned that Dauid smote the Philistines, and subdued them, & toke the brydell of bondage out of the hande of the Philistines. ² And he smote the Moabites & measured them with a lyne, & cast them downe to the grounde. Euen wyth two lynes measured he them whom he slue, and the length of one lyne saued he alyue. And so becam the Moabites Dauids seruauntes, & payed trybute. Dauid smote also, ³ Hadarezer the sonne of Rehob kynge of Zoba as he went to recouer his border at the ryuer Pherat. ⁴ And Dauid toke a thousand & seuen hundred horsemen of his hoost, and twentye thousand fote men, and cut of the hofe of all his charette horses, reseruyng onely one hundred charettes. ⁵ And whan the Sirians of Damascon came to succoure Hadarezer kynge of Zoba, Dauid slue of the Sirians two and twentye thousande men, ⁶ and put soudyours in Siria Damascon. And the Sirians became seruauntes, to Dauid, payeng tribute. And thus the Lord sarued Dauid, in all that he went vnto. ⁷ And Dauid toke the shildes of gold that belonged to the seruauntes of Hadarezer, & brought them to Ierusalem. ⁸ And out of Beta & Berothai (cities of Hadarezer) did Dauid bring exceding moch brasse. ⁹ When Thoi kyng of Aamath heard how Dauid had smytten all the hoste of Hadarezer, ¹⁰ he sent Ioram his sonne vnto kynge Dauid, to salute hym with peace, & to blesse hym, because he had fought agaynst Hadarezer, and beaten hym: for Thoy had greate warre wt Hadarezer, which (Ioram) brought with him, vesselles of siluer, vessels of golde, and vessels of brasse: ¹¹ Which brasse kyng Dauid dyd dedicat vnto the Lord wt the syluer and golde that he had consecrated of all nacyons, whych he subdued: ¹² of Siria of the Moabites, & of the chyldren of Ammon, of the Philistines, & of Hamalek, and of the spoyle of Hadarezer sonne of Rehob kyng of Zoba.

⁶ And so the people went out into the felde agaynst Israel, and the battel was in the woode of Ephraim: ⁷ Where the people of Israel were put to the worsse before the seruauntes of Dauid, & there was a great slaughter that daye, euen of twentye thousande men. ⁸ For the felde was fought there in dyuerse places, all abroade vpon the erthe. And the wodd deuoured moo people that daye, than dyd the swerde.

⁹ And it fortuned that all the people were at stryffe thorowe out all the trybes of Israel, sayinge: the kyng saued vs out of the hande of oure enemyes, he delyuered vs out of the hande of the Philistines, and nowe he is fleed out of the lande for Absalom.

¹⁴ And he bowed the hertes of all the men of Iuda, euen, as the hert of one man: so that they sent this worde to the kyng: Returne thou with all thy seruauntes.

¹ Whan there cam thither a certayne man of Belial (named Seba, the sonne of Bichri, a man of gemini) he blew a trompet & sayde: we haue no parte in Dauid, neither haue we enheritaunce in the sonne of Isai, let the men of Israel departe vnto there tentes. ² And so euery man of Israel went from Dauid, and folowed Seba the sonne of Bichri. But the men of Iuda claue fast vnto their kynge, from Iordan to Ierusalem.

²² And then the woman went vnto all the people with her wisdome. And they smote of the heed of Seba the sonne of Bichri, and cast it out to Ioab. And he blewe a trompet, and they skatered from the cytie, euery man to his tent. And Ioab returned to Ierusalem, vnto the kynge.

¹ Why do the Heythen so furiouslye rage together? and why do the people ymagyne a vayne thynge? ² The kynges of the erth stande vp, and the rulers take councell together agaynst the Lorde, and agaynst hys anoynted. ³ Let vs breake theyr bondes asunder, and cast awaye theyr coardes from vs. ⁴ He that dwelleth in heauen shall laugh them to scorne: the Lorde shall haue them in derisyon. ⁵ Then shall he speake vnto them in hys wrath, and vexe them in hys sore displeasure. ⁶ Yet haue I set my kynge vpon my holy hyll of Syon.

⁸ Desyre of me, and I shall geue the, the Heythen for thyne enheritaunce, & the vtmost partes of the erthe for thy possessyon.

⁴³ Thou shalt delyuer me from the stryuinges of the people: and thou shalte make me the head of the Heythen.

⁸ Moab is my washpotte, ouer Edom wyll I cast out my shoo. Philystea be thou glad of me. ⁹ Who wyll leade me into the stronge cytie? Who wyll brynge me into Edom?

⁸ His dominion shalbe also from the one see to the other, and from the floud vnto the worldes ende. ⁹ They that dwell in the wildernes shall knele before him, his enemies shall licke the dust.

⁶ He shall be iudge among the Heathen, he shall fyll the places with deed bodyes, & smyte a sonder the heades ouer diuerse countres.

⁵ Lo, thou shalt call an vnknowne people: & a people that had not knowledge of the, shall runne vnto the: because of the Lord thy God, and the holy one of Israel, whych glorifyeth the.

¹² For euery people and kyngdome that serueth not the, shall perysh, & be distroyed wt vtter destructyon.

¹ They seke me, that hytherto haue not asked for me: they fynde me, that hyther to haue not sought me. I haue sayde I am here, I am here. I am founde of a people that neuer called vpon my name.

¹⁴ Then gaue he him power & dignite regall, that all people, trybes and tunges shulde serue him. His power is an euerlastinge power, which shall neuer be put downe: & his kyngdome endureth uncorrupte.

²³ I wyll sowe them vpon earth, for a sede to myne amne selfe, & wyll haue mercy vpon her, that was wythout mercy. And to them whych were not my people, I wyll saye: thou art my people and he shall saye: thou art my God.

²⁵ which by the mouth of thy seruaunt Dauid hast sayd: Why dyd the hethen rage, and the people ymagen vayne thynges? ²⁶ The kynges of the erth stode vp, and the rulars came together, agaynst the Lorde and agaynst hys anoynted. ²⁷ For of a trueth, agaynst thy holy chylde Iesus (whom thou hast anoynted) both Herode and also Poncius Pylate, which the Gentyls and the people of Israel, gathered them selues together ²⁸ for to do whatsoeuer thy hande and thy counsell determyned before to be done.

³⁰ The God of oure fathers raysed vp Iesus, whom ye slewe, and hanged on tre. ³¹ Hym hath God lyft vp with his ryght hand, to be a ruler and a sauiour, for to geue repentaunce to Israel, and forgeuenes of synnes.

²⁵ As he sayth also to Osee? I wyll call them my people which were not my people: and her beloued which was not beloued, (and her to haue optayned mercy, that had not optayned mercy)

¹² And agayne Esay sayth: ther shalbe the rote of Iesie, and he that shall ryse to raygne ouer the gentyls: in hym shall the gentyls trust.

¹⁵ And the seuenth Angell blewe, & ther were made greate voyces in heauen, sayinge: the kyngdoms of this worlde are oure lordes, and his Christes, & he shall raygne for euermore.

⁴⁴ A people whom I haue not knowen shall serue me. ⁴⁵ Assone as they heare of me, they shall obey me: but the straunge chyldren shall dissemble with me.

³ For all the worlde shall worship the, singe of the, & prayse thy name. Sela.

¹⁵ I shulde soone haue put downe their enemyes, & turned myne hand agaynst their aduersaryes.

³ Then shall not the straunger, which cleaueth to the Lorde, saye: Alas, the Lorde hath shut me cleane out from hys people. Nether shall the gelded man saye: lo, I am a drye tre.

⁶ Agayne the straungers that stycke to the Lorde, to serue hym, and to loue hys name: and to be hys seruauntes. And all they, whych kepe them selues, that they vnhalowe not the Sabboth, namely, that they fulfyll my couenaunt:

¹³ Then Simon hym selfe beleued also. And whan he was baptised, he continued wt Philip, and wondred, beholding the miracles & sygnes, which were shewed.

²¹ Thou hast nether parte, nor felowshyp in thys busynes. For thy hert is not ryght in the syght of God. ²² Repente therfore of thys thy wyckednes, & praye God, that the thought of thyne herte maye be forgeuen the. ²³ For I perceaue that thou art full of bitter gall, and wrapped in iniquite.

¹⁹ Men shall crepe in to holes of stone, and into caues of the earth, for feare of the Lorde, and for the glory of hys magesty: what tyme as he shall aryse vp to condemne the earth.

²¹ And they shall crepe in to the caues and rockes, & into the clyftes of hard stones, for feare of God, and for the glory of hys magestye, whan he ryseth to condemne the earth.

⁶ We are all as an vnclene thynge, & all oure ryghteousnes are as the clothes stayned with the floures of a woman: we fall euerychone as the leafe, for oure synnes cary vs awaye lyke the wynde.

³ though they hyde them selues vpon the toppe of Carmel, yet shall I seke them out, and brynge them from thence: though they crepe downe fro my syght into the depe of the see, I shall commaunde the serpente, euen there to byte them.

¹⁷ They shal lycke the dust lyke a serpent, & as the wormes of the earth, that tremble in their holes. They shalbe afrayed of the Lord oure God, & they shall feare the.

¹¹ For as the sonne ryseth with heat, & the grasse wydereth, & hys flower falleth awaye, and the beautie of the fassyon of it perissheth: euen so shall the rich man perisshe in his wayes.

³⁹ Se nowe, howe that I I alone am God, & there is none but I: I kyll, and wyll make alyue: I wounde, and I wyll heale: nether is there any that can delyuer out of my hande. ⁴⁰ For I wyll lyfte vp myne hande to heauen, and wyll saye: I lyue euer.

²⁵ For I am sure, that my redemer lyueth, and that I hall ryse out of the earth in the latter daye:

²⁶ I wyll set hys dominion also in the see, and hys ryght hande in the floudes.

³⁰ And when the Lord shall haue done to my Lord all the good that he hath promised the, & shall haue made the ruler ouer Israel:

³⁹ And when Dauid heard that Nabal was deed, he sayde: Blessed be the Lorde that hath iudged the cause of my rebuke of the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his seruaunt from euell, and hath recompensed the wickednesse of Nabal vpon his awne heed. And Dauid sent to comen wt Abigail: to thyn tent to take her to his wife.

¹⁹ Then sayde Ahimaaz the sonne of Sadock: let me runne nowe, and beare the kyng tydinges, how that the Lorde hath iudged hym quyte of the hande of hys enemyes.

³¹ And beholde, Chusi came also, and sayde: Good tydinges my Lorde the kynge, For the Lorde hath quytte the thys daye out of the hande of all them that rose agaynst the.

¹ O lord God to whome vengeaunce belongeth: thou God to whome vengeaunce belongeth, shewe thy selfe.

²⁵ For he must raygne tyll he haue put all his enemyes vnder his fete.

⁷ The water droppeth out of his bouket, and hys seed shal be many waters and hys kinge shalbe hyer then Agag, And hys kyngdome shalbe exalted.

¹⁷ I shall se hym, but not nowe I shall beholde him, but not nye. There shall come a starre of Iacob, and ryse a sceptre of Israel, and shal smyte the costes of Moab & vndermyne all the chyldren of Seth. ¹⁸ And Edom shalbe possessed, and Seir shall fall to the possessyon of theyr enemyes, and Israel shall do manfully. ¹⁹ Out of Iacob shall come he that shal haue dominion, and shall destroye the remnaunt of the cytie.

⁸ He reyseth vp the poore out of the dust, and lyfteth vp the begger from the dong hyll: to sett them amonge princes, and to enherett them with the seate of glorye. For the pillers of the erth are the lordes, and he hath sett the rounde worlde vpon them.

¹² And Dauid perceaued, that the Lord had stablissshed hym kynge ouer Israel, & that he had exalted his kingdom for his people Israels sake.

⁸ Now therfore, so saye vnto my seruaunt Dauid: thus sayth the Lorde of Hostes. I toke the from the shepe cote (as thou wast folowyng shepe) that thou myghtest be ruler ouer my people Israel. ⁹ And I was with the in all that thou wentest to, & haue destroyed all thyne enemyes out of thy syght, and haue made the a great name, lyke vnto the name of the great men that are in the worlde.

⁴⁸ Euen the God which seeth that I be auenged, and subdueth the people vnto me.

¹ To the chaunter, an exortacyon of Dauid, when Doeg the Edomyte came to Saul, and shewed him, sayinge: Dauid is come to the house Ahymelech. Why boastest thou thy self, thou Tyraunt, that thou canst do myschefe?

⁴⁹ It is he that delyuereth me from my enemyes, and setteth me vp aboue myne aduersaryes: thou shalt rydd me from the wycked man.

¹ A thankesgeuynge of Dauid. I Wyll magnifye the, O God my kynge, and I wyll prayse thy name for euer and euer. ² Euery daye wyll I geue thanckes vnto the, and prayse thy name for euer & euer.

¹ Halleluiah. Prayse the Lorde, O my soule: whyle I lyue will I prayse the Lorde: yee as long as I haue any beynge, I will synge prayses vnto my God. ² O put not youre trust in Princes, nor in any chylde of man, for there is no helpe in them.
