(2.) p. 5. † (1.) p. 4. 2 The ungodly for his own lust* doth perse- { cute the poor let them be taken in the crafty wiliness* that they have im-ag-in-ed. 3 For the ungodly hath made boast of his own heart's de-sire: and speaketh good of the covetous,* whom { God ab-hor-reth. 4 The ungodly is so proud,* that he careth { not for God: neither is { God in all his thoughts. 5 His ways are { al-way grie-vous: thy judgements are far above out of his sight,* and therefore defieth he { all his en-e-mies. } 6 For he hath said in his heart,* Tush, I shall never { be cast down: there shall no harm { hap-pen un-to me. 7 His mouth is full of cursing, de- ceit, and fraud under his tongue is ungodli- {ness and van-i-ty. 8 He sitteth lurking in the thievish corners { of the streets and privily in his lurking dens doth he murder the innocent; his eyes are set a-gainst the poor. 9 For he lieth waiting secretly,* even as a lion lurketh he in his den: that he may ravish the poor. 10 He doth { ravish the poor: when he { getteth him into his net. 11 He falleth down, and { humbleth him-self: that the congregation of the poor* may fall into the hands of his cap-tains. 12 He hath said in his heart,* Tush, God { hath for-got-ten: he hideth away his face,* and he will never see it. 13(f) Arise, O Lord God, and lift up thine hand: for- get not the poor. 14 Wherefore should the wicked blas- { pheme God while he doth say in his heart,* Tush, thou God carest not for it. 15 Surely thou hast seen it for thou beholdest un-god-li-ness and wrong. 16 That thou mayest take the matter into thine hand the poor committeth himself unto thee;* for thou art the helper of the friend-less. 17 + Break thou the power of the ungodly } and ma-li-cious: take away his ungodliness, and { thou shalt find none. 18+) The Lord is King for ever and ev-er: and the heathen are perish-ed out of the land. 19 (f) Lord, thou hast heard the desire of the poor thou preparest their heart, and thine ear heark-en-eth there-to; 20 (f) To help the fatherless and poor { unto their right: that the man of the earth be no more ex-alted a-gainst them. PSALM Xi. In Domino confido. IN the Lord put { I my trust: how say ye then to my soul,* that she should flee as a { bird unto the hill? 2 For lo, the ungodly bend their bow,* and make ready their arrows with- { in the quiv-er:、 that they may privily shoot at them which are true of heart. : 3 For the foundations will be cast down and what hath the right-eous done? 4(f) The Lord is in his ho-ly tem-ple: the Lord's seat is in heaven. : 5) His eyes con- sider the poor and his eyelids { try the children of men. 6 † The Lord al- { loweth the right-eous: but the ungodly, and him that delighteth in wickedness* doth his soul ab-hor. } |
