TONE 6. I called unto him with my mouth : and gave him práisěs with my tongue. If I incline unto wickedness with mine heart : the Lord will not hear me. But God hath heard me : and considered the voice of my prayer. Praised be God who hath not cast out my prayer : nor turned his mercy from me. Psalm lxvii. Deus misereatur. (MARRIAGE OFFICE.) TONE 3. God be mérciful unto ús, and bless us : and shew us the light of his countenance*, and be mérciful unto us; That thy way may be known upon earth : thy saving health among all nations. Let the people praise thee, O God : yea, let all the people praise thee. O let the nations rějoice and be glad : for thou shalt judge the folk righteously*, and govern the nations upon earth. Let the people praise thee, O God : let all the people praise thee. Then shall the earth bring forth her increase : and TONE 3. God, even our own God *, shall give ús his blessing. God shall bless us : and all the ends of the world shall fear him. THE THIRTEENTH DAY. Morning Prayer. (WHIT-BUNDAY. MORN.) TONE 6 LET God arise, and let his enemies be scattered : let them also that hate him flee before him. Like as the smoke vanisheth, so shalt thou drive them ăway : and like as wax melteth at the fire *, so let the ungodly pérish at the presence of God. But let the righteous be glad and rejoice before God : let them also be mérrý and joyful. O sing unto God, 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 rějoice before him. He is a Father of the fatherless, and defendeth the cause of the widows : even God in his holy habi. tátion. TONE 6. He is the God that maketh men to be of one mind in an house *, and bringeth the prisoners out of captívšty : but letteth the runagates contínŭe in scárceness. : O God, when thou wentest forth before the people : when thou wéntest through the wilderness, The earth shook, and the heavens dropped at the présence of God : even as Sinai also was moved at the presence of God * who is the God of Isrăel. Thou, O God, sentest a gracious rain upon thine inhérítance : and refreshedst it when it was weary. Thy congregation shall dwell therein : for thou, O God, hast of thy goodness prepared for the poor. The Lord gave the word : great was the company of the preachers. Kings with their armies did fleé, and were discómfited ; and they of the houshold divided the spoil. • Though ye have lien among the pots *, yet shall ye be as the wings of ă dove : that is covered with silver wings*, and her feathers like gold. When the Almighty scattered kings for their sake : then were they as white as snow in Sálmon. As the hill of Básan, so is God's hill : even an hígh hill, as the hill of Basan. Why hop ye so, ye high hills *? this is God's hill, in the which it pleáseth him to dwell : yea, the Lord will abíde in it for éver. The chariots of God are twenty thousand*, even thousands of angels : and the Lord is among them, as in the holy place of Sinai. Thou art gone up on high*, thou hast led captivity captive, and received gifts for men : yea, even for thine enemies*, that the Lord God might dwell among them. Praised be the Lord daily : even the God who helpeth us, and poureth his bénefits upon us. He is our God*, even the God of whom cometh salvation : God is the Lord, by whóm wě escape death. God shall wound the head of his éněmies : and the hairy scalp of such a one as goeth on stíll in his wickedness. The Lord hath said *, I will bring my people again, as I did from Basan : mine own will I bring again*, as I did sometime from the deep of thě sea. That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine éněmies : and that the tongue of thy dogs may be red through the same. It is well seen, O God, how thou goest : how thou, my God and King*, goest in the sanctúăry. The singers go before*, the minstrels follow after: in the midst are the dámsels playing with the tímbrels. Give thanks, O Israel, unto God the Lord in the congregations : from the ground of thě heart. There is little Benjamin their ruler*, and the princes of Judah their counsel : the princes of Zabulon*; and the princes of Nephtăli. Thy God hath sent forth strength for thee: stablish the thing, O God, that thou hăst wrought in us, For thy temple's sake at Jerúsålem : so shall kings bring présents unto thee. When the company of the spear-men, and multitude of the mighty*, are scattered abroad among the beasts of the people *, so that they humbly bring pieces of silver : and when he hath scattered the people that delight in war; Then shall the princes come out of Egypt : the Morians' land shall soon stretch out her hands unto God. | Sing unto God, 0 ye kingdoms of the earth : 0 sing praises unto the Lord; Who sitteth in the heavens over all from the beginning : lo, he doth send out his voice*, yea, and that å mighty voice. Ascribe ye the power to Gód over Isrăel : his worship, and strength is in the clouds. O God, wonderful art thou in thy hóly places : even the God of Israel*; he will give strength and power unto his people*; blessed bě God. |
