40 And he gave them over into the hand of the heathen : and they that hated · them were | lords | over them.

41 Their enemies · op pressed them : and had · them I in · sub ljection.

42 Many a time did | hede | liver them: but they rebelled against him with their own inventions, and were brought · down | in their wickedness.

43 Nevertheless, when he I saw • their ad versity: he heard | their • com | plaint.

44 He thought upon his covenant, and pitied them, according unto the multitude of · his 1 mercies: yea, he made all those that led them away | captive to pity them.

46 Deliver us, O Lord our God, and gather us from a | mong · the heathen: that we may give thanks unto thy holy Name, and make our | boast 1 of thy praise.

46 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from everlasting, and world | with · out | end : and let all the I people | say, · A | men.

Day 22.] MORNING PRAYER.

Psalm cvii. Confitemini Domino. Give thanks unto the Lord, for 1 he · is I graU cious: and his I mercy.en dureth. for ever.

2 Let them give thanks whom the Lord · hath redeemed: and delivered from the hand of the | enemy.

3 And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west : from the north,. and from the south.

4 They went astray in the wilderness | out · of the I way: and I found · no | city · to | dwell in;

5 Hungry and thirsty: their soul | fainted | in them.

6 So thy cried unto the Lord in their | trouble : and he delivered | them from their distress,

7 He led them forth by the right way: that they might go to the city ! where they dwelt.

8 O that men would therefore praise the Lord . for his goodness : and declare the wonders that 'he doeth. for the children of men!

9 For he satisfieth the emp · ty | soul: and filleth the hungry | soul with goodness. · <10 Such as sit in darkness, and in the shadow of | death: being fast | bound. in | misery i and | iron.

11 Because they rebelled against the / words of the Lord : and lightly regarded the counsel. of the most | Highest.

12 He also brought down their heart. through | heaviness: they fell down, and there · was | none • tol help them.

13 So when they cried unto the Lord I in their trouble: he delivered them out · of | their dis i tress.

14 For he brought them out of darkness, and out of the shadow of | death; and ( brake · their bonds . in / sunder.

15 O that men would therefore praise the Lord · for his goodness: and declare the wonders that he doeth. for the children oof | men!

16 For he hath' broken the gates of | brass : and smitten the bars • of iron · in | sunder. · 17 Foolish men are plagued for their of \fence: and because of their wickedness.

18 Their soul abhorred all | manner. of I meat : and they were even hard · at death's door.

19 So when they cried unto the Lord in their | trouble: he delivered them | out of their . dis | tress.

20 He sent his word, and healed them : and they were saved from their : de struction.

21 O that men would therefore praise the Lord · for his goodness : and declare the wonders that hel doeth. for the children of men !

22 That they would offer unto him the sacrifice of thanks 1 giving : and tell out his / works • with 1 gladness.

23 They that go down to the sea . in i ships : and occupy their busi • ness | in great | waters;

24 These men see the l works of the Lord : and his I won • ders in the deep.

25 For at his word the stormy | wind • a riseth: which lifteth | up. the I waves. there of.'

26 They are carried up to the heaven, and down al gain to the deep : their soul melteth away be cause of the trouble.

27 They reel to and fro, and stagger like all drunk. en | man: and are · at | their · wit's | end.

28 So when they cry unto the Lord | in their trouble: he delivereth them out. of|their distress.

29 For he maketh the stormi to I cease : so that the waves . there I of are still.

30 Then are they glad, because they are · at rest: and so he bringeth them unto the l'ha. ven where they would be.

31 O that men would therefore praise the Lord · for his goodness: and declare the wonders that he doeth for the children of | men!

32 That they would exalt him also in the congregation of the people : and praise him | in. the seat of the elders!

33 Who turneth the floods in Ito. a \ wilderness: and | dri . eth | up • the water-springs.

34 A fruitful land maketh. he barren : for the wickedness of them i that dwell: there | in.

35 Again, he maketh the wilderness a stand. ing I water: and water springs • of a dry ground.

36 And there he setteth. the hungry: that they may | build · them a city • tol dwell in;

37 That they may sow their land, and plant | vineyards: to 1 yield. them I fruits of increase.

38 He blessed them, so that they multiply • ex ceedingly: and suffereth not their cattle to del crease.

39 And again, when they are minished, and I brought | low: through oppression, through la• ny | plague, .or | trouble ;

40 Though he suffer them to be evil in | treated . through | tyrants: and let them wander out of the way | in: the wilderness;

41 Yet helped he the poor | out · of I misery: and maketh him households · like a l flock of 1 sheep.

42 The righteous will consider this, I and · re ! joice: and the mouth of all / wicked • ness | shall. be stopped.

43 Whoso is wise will \ ponder · these things : and they shall understand the loving | kind · ness of the í Lord.

Psalm cix. Deus laudum. TITOLD not thy tongue, O God of my praise : A for the mouth of the ungodly, yea, the mouth of the deceitful. is I opened · up on me.

2 And they have spoken against me with · false | tongues: they compassed me about also with words of hatred, and fought against · me with out • a cause.

3 For the love that I had unto them, lo, they take now my | contra ry | part: but I give : my self. unto | prayer.
