29 | When thou hidest thy face they are { troubled: when thou takest away their breath they die,* and are turned a-{ gain to their dust.

30 (f) When thou lettest thy breath go forth they shall be made: and thou shalt re- { new the face of the earth.

Morning Prayer.
PSALM i. Beatus vir, qui non abiit.

Tone 1. C. p. 2.

BLESSED is the man, that hath not walked in the counsel of the ungodly,* nor stood in the way of sin-ners : and hath not sat in the seat of the scorn-ful.

2 But his delight is in the { law of the Lord : and in his law will he exercise himself day and night.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the wa-ter side: that will bring forth his { fruit in due sea-son.

4 His leaf also { shall not with-er: and look, whatsoever he doeth, { it shall pros-per.

5 As for the ungodly, it is not { so with them :

6 Therefore the ungodly shall not be able to stand { in the judge-ment: neither the sinners in the congre- gation of the right-eous.

7 But the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: and the way of the un- { godly shall per-ish.

Psalm ii. Quare fremuerunt gentes ?

Tone 6. (1.) p. 11.

Why do the heathen so furiously { rage to-gether : and why do the people im- { agine a vain thing?

3 Let us break their { bonds a-sun-der : and cast a- { way their cords from us.

4 (f) He that dwelleth in heaven shall { laugh them to scorn : the Lord shall have them { in de-ri-sion.

5 Then shall he speak unto them { in his wrath : and vex them in his { sore dis-plea-sure.

6 Yet have I set my King : upon my holy { hill of Si-on.
