Part 50 (2/2)
For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: O well is thee, and happy shalt thou be.
Thy wife shall be as the fruitful vine: upon the walls of thy house;
Thy children like the olive branches: round about thy table.
Lo, thus shall the man be blessed: that feareth the Lord.
The Lord from out of Sion shall so bless thee: that thou shalt see Jerusalem in prosperity all thy life long;
Yea, that thou shalt see thy children's children: and peace upon Israel.
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.
_Or this Psalm_.
_Deus miser eatur_. Psalm lxvii.
G.o.d be merciful unto us, and bless us: and shew us the light of his countenance, and be merciful unto us:
That thy way may be known upon earth: thy saving health among all nations.
Let the people praise thee, O G.o.d: yea, let all the people praise thee.
O let the nations rejoice and be glad: for thou shalt judge the folk righteously, and govern the nations upon earth.
Let the people praise thee, O G.o.d: yea, let all the people praise thee.
Then shall the earth bring forth her increase: and G.o.d, even our own G.o.d, shall give us his blessing.
G.o.d shall bless us: and all the ends of the world shall fear him.
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 Psalm ended, and the man and the woman kneeling before the Lord's Table, the Priest standing at the Table, and turning his face towards them, shall say_,
Lord, have mercy upon us.
_Answer_. Christ, have mercy upon us.
_Minister_. Lord, have mercy upon us.
Our Father which art in heaven, 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 trespa.s.ses, As we forgive them that trespa.s.s against us; And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. Amen.
_Minister_. O Lord, save thy servant, and thy handmaid;
