PSALMS OF DAVID.

THE FIRST DAY.

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 him- { self 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 :

but they are like the chaff,

which the wind

scattereth a- { way from the face of the earth.

6 Therefore the ungodly shall not be able to stand in the judge-ment: neither the sinners in } the congregation 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?

:

2 The kings of the earth stand up,* and the rulers take { counsel to-ge-ther: against the Lord, and against { his A-noint-ed.

[ocr errors]

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.
