               the children of men.   14  From the habitation of  19  Great are the troubles of the righteous: but
               his dwelling he beholdeth all them that dwell in  the Lord deliuereth him out of them all.   20  He
               the earth.  15 He facioneth their hearts euery one, keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.
               and vnderstandeth all their workes.  16 The King  21  But malice shall slay the wicked: and they
               is not saued by the multitude of an hoste, neither that hate the righteous, shall perish.  22 The Lord
               is the mightie man deliuered by great strength. redeemeth the soules of his seruants: and none,
               17  A horse is a vaine helpe, and shall not deliuer  that trust in him, shall perish.
               any by his great strength.   18  Beholde, the eye
               of the Lord is vpon them that feare him, and                            35
               vpon them, that trust in his mercie, 19 To deliuer  1  A Psalme of Dauid. Pleade thou my cause,
               their soules from death, and to preserue them in  O Lord, with them that striue with me: fight
               famine.  20 Our soule waiteth for the Lord: for he  thou against them, that fight against me.  2  Lay
               is our helpe and our shielde.  21  Surely our heart
               shall reioyce in him, because we trusted in his   hand vpon the shielde and buckler, and stand
                                                                                      3
               holy Name.  22 Let thy mercie, O Lord, be vpon vs,  vp for mine helpe.  Bring out also the speare
               as we trust in thee.                              and stop the way against them, that persecute
                                                                 me: say vnto my soule, I am thy saluation. Let
                                                                                                            4

                  1  A Psalme of Dauid, when he changed his      after my soule: let them be turned backe, and
                                                                 brought to confusion, that imagine mine hurt.

               together.  4 I sought the Lord, and he heard me:  destruction come vpon him at vnwares, and let
               yea, he deliuered me out of all my feare.  5  They  his net, that he hath laid priuilie, take him: let
               shall looke vnto him, and runne to him: and       him fall into the same destruction.  9  Then my
               their faces shall not be ashamed, saying, This
                                                         6
               poore man cryed, and the Lord heard him, and      soule shalbe ioyfull in the Lord: it shall reioyce in

               the Lord pitcheth round about them, that feare    is like vnto thee, which deliuerest the poore from
               him, and deliuereth them.    8  Taste ye and see,  him, that is too strong for him! yea, the poore
               howe gratious the Lord is: blessed is the man     and him that is in miserie, from him that spoyleth
                                                                      11
               that trusteth in him.   9  Feare the Lord, ye his  him!  Cruell witnesses did rise vp: they asked of

               Saintes: for nothing wanteth to them that feare   me things that I knewe not.  They rewarded me

               that is good.  11 Come children, hearken vnto me: I  praier was turned vpon my bosome.  14 I behaued
               will teache you the feare of the Lord.  12 What man  my selfe as to my friend, or as to my brother:
               is he, that desireth life, and loueth long dayes for  I humbled my selfe, mourning as one that be-
               to see good?  13 Keepe thy tongue from euill, and  waileth his mother.  15 But in mine aduersitie they
               thy lips, that they speake no guile.  14  Eschewe  reioyced, and gathered them selues together: the

               it.  15 The eyes of the Lord are vpon the righteous,  knewe not: they tare me and ceased not,  16 With
               and his eares are open vnto their crie.  16 But the  the false skoffers at bankets, gnashing their teeth
               face of the Lord is against them that doe euill, to  against me.  17  Lord, how long wilt thou beholde
