Part 79 (2/2)

9 For thou, O G.o.d, hast proved us: thou also hast tried us, like as silver is tried.

10 Thou broughtest us into the snare: and laidest trouble upon our loins.

11 Thou sufferedst men to ride over our heads: we went through fire and water, and thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.

12 I will go into thine house with burnt-offerings: and will pay thee my vows, which I promised with my lips, and spake with my mouth, when I was in trouble.

13 I will offer unto thee fat burnt-sacrifices, with the incense of rams: I will offer bullocks and goats.

14 O come hither, and hearken, all ye that fear G.o.d: and I will tell you what he hath done for my soul.

151 called unto him with my mouth: and gave him praises with my tongue.

16 If I incline unto wickedness with mine heart: the Lord will not hear me.

17 But G.o.d hath heard me: and considered the voice of my prayer.

18 Praised be G.o.d, who hath not cast out my prayer: nor turned his mercy from me.

PSALM 67. _Deus misereatur_.

G.o.d be merciful unto us, and bless us: and shew us the light of his countenance, and be merciful unto us:

2 That thy way may be known upon earth: thy saving health among all nations.

3 Let the people praise thee, O G.o.d: yea, let all the people praise thee.

4 O let the nations rejoice and be glad: for thou shalt judge the folk righteously, and govern the nations upon earth.

5 Let the people praise thee, O G.o.d: let all the people praise thee.

6 Then shall the earth bring forth her increase: and G.o.d, even our own G.o.d, shall give us his blessing.

7 G.o.d shall bless us: and all the ends of the world shall fear him.

DAY 13 MORNING PRAYER

PSALM 68. _Exsurgat Deus_.

Let G.o.d arise, and let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him.

2 Like as the smoke vanisheth, so shalt thou drive them away: and like as wax melteth at the fire, so let the unG.o.dly perish at the presence of G.o.d.

3 But let the righteous be glad and rejoice before G.o.d: let them also be merry and joyful.

4 O sing unto G.o.d, and sing praises unto his Name: magnify him that rideth upon the heavens, as it were upon an horse; praise him in his Name JAH, and rejoice before him.
