MORNING PRAYER.

Psalm lxxix Deus, venerunt.

GOD, the heathen are come into | thine in | heritance: thy holy temple have they defiled, and made Jerusalem an | heap of stones.

2 The dead bodies of thy servants have they given to be meat unto the fowls. of the air: and the flesh of thy saints un to the | beasts of the | land.

3 Their blood have they shed like water on every | side of Jerusalem: and there was no | man • to bury them.

them that ·

4 We are become an open | shame to our | enemies: a very scorn and derision unto are round about us.

5 Lord, how long wilt thou be angry: shall thy jealousy burn like | fire for | ever?

6 Pour out thine indignation upon the heathen that have not known thee: and upon the kingdoms that have not called up on thy | Name. 7 For they have devoured Jacob: and laid waste his dwelling place.

8 O remember not our old sins, but have mercy upon us, and that soon: for we are come. to great misery.

9 Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of thy Name: O deliver us, and be merciful unto our sins, for thy | Name's sake.

10 Wherefore do the | hea then | say: Where | is | now their God?

11 O let the vengeance of thy servants' | blood. that is shed: be openly shewed upon the hea · then in our sight

12 O let the sorrowful sighing of the prisoners | come before thee: according to the greatness of

thy power, preserve thou | those that are ap pointed to die.

13 And for the blasphemy wherewith our neigh. bours have blasphemed thee: reward thou them, O Lord, sevenfold in to their | bosom.

14 So we, that are thy people, and sheep of thy pasture, shall give thee | thanks for ever: and will alway be shewing forth thy praise from gener| ation to generation.

6 Thou hast made us a very strife | unto our | neighbours and our ene. mies | laugh us to scorn. 7 Turn us again, thou | God of hosts: shew the light of thy countenance, and we | shall be |

whole.

8 Thou hast brought a vine | out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen and planted it. 9 Thou madest | room for | it: and when it had taken root it | filled the | land.

10 The hills were covered with the | shadow | of it: and the boughs thereof were like the good · lyce dar trees.

12 Why hast thou then broken down hedge: that all they that go by· pluck | off · her grapes?

13 The wild boar out of the wood doth root it up and the wild beasts of the field de | vour it.

14 Turn thee again, thou God of hosts, look | down from heaven: behold, and | visit · this \vine;

15 And the place of the vineyard that thy right | hand hath | planted: and the branch that thou | madest so strong for thyself.

16 It is burnt with fire, and cut down: and they shall perish at the re buke of thy | coun

tenance.

17 Let thy hand be upon the man of | thy right hand and upon the son of man, whom thou madest so strong for thine own self.

18 And so will not we go back · from | thee: O let us live, and we shall | call upon thy Name.

19 Turn us again, O Lord God of hosts: shew the light of thy countenance, | and we | shall be whole.

4 For this was made a | statute for Israel: and a law of the | God of Jacob.

5 This he ordained in Joseph for a | testimony:

when he came out of the land of Egypt, and had | heard a strange | language.

6 I eased his shoulder | from the | burden: and his hands were delivered from making the Ipots.

7 Thou calledst upon me in troubles, and | Ide livered thee: and heard thee what time as the storm fell upon thee.

8 I proved thee also: at the | waters of | strife.

9 Hear, O my people, and I will assure thee, ·O | Israel: if thou wilt hearken unto me. 10 There shall no strange | God be in thee: neither shalt thou worship any other | god. 11 I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth | wide, and I shall | fill it.

12 But my people would not hear my voice: and Israel would not obey me.

13 So I gave them up unto their own. heart's lusts: and let them follow their | own · imagin

5 They will not be learned nor understand, but walk on still in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.
