Praise the name of our Lord. 2 Let the name of our Lord be blssed both now and for ever 3 From the rising to the setting of the sun all praise is due to the name of our Lord. 4 Our Lord is raised above all the Nations And above the heavens his glory is exalted 5 Who is like the Lord out God who dwells on high And looks upon all that is humble both in heaven and upon the earth 6 Who raiseth the poor from the dust And lifts up the needy from the dunghill 7 To place him with Princes even the Princes of his people 8 Who makes the barren woman in the house become a joyfull mother of children PSALME CXIII In exitu Israel The Prophet in this Psalme makes an abrigement of the wonders which God perform'd in bringing his people out of Egypt into the land of Canaan The cheif defign of it is to print an aversion in the minds of the people against the Idols of thos Nations And to settle them in the service of the true God 1 WHen Israel went out of Egypt Psalm 113. The house of Jacob out from a barbarous Nation 2 Judea became the place of his sanctification And Israel the seat of his power 3 The sea beheld him and fled Jordan was driven backwards 4 The mountains leaped like rams And the hills like the lambs of the flock 5 O sea what made thee fly And thou Jordan what drove thee back 6 Why did you mountains leap like rams And you hills like the lambs of the flock 7 At the sight of our Lord the earth did tremble At the sight of the God of Jacob 8 Who changeth rocks into pools of water and quarys of stone into fountains 9 Not to us O Lord Not to us But to thy name give glory 10 By making manifest thy mercy and thy truth Least at any time the Nations should say Wher is their God 11 But our God is in heaven what ever pleased him to do he hath done 12 The Idols of the Nations are made of gold and silver The handy works of men 13 They have a mouth and can not speak They have eyes and can not see 14 They have ears and can not hear They have nostrils and cannot smell 15 They have hands and can not feel They have feet and can not walk They have a throat and can not cry out 16 Let all be like them who make them and who confide in them 17 The house of Israel confides in our Lord he is their helper and their protector 18 The house of Aaron confides in our Lord he is their helper and their Protector 19 All that fear our Lord confide in our Lord he is their helper and their Protector 20 Our Lord has been mindfull of us and has given us his blessing 21 He has blessed the house of Israel he has blessed the house of Aaron 22 He has blessed all who fear him Both litle and great 23 May our Lord increase his blessings upon you and upon your children 24 Be yee all blessed by our Lord who made heaven and earth 25 The heaven of heavens belongs to our Lord The earth he has given to the sons of men 26 The dead will not praise thee O Lord Nor all thos who descend into hell 27 But wee who live bless our Lord now and for ever PSALME CXIV Dilexi quoniam The Prophete in this Psalme gives thanks to God for having delivered him from an eminent danger And promiseth sacrifices of praise to God for his mercy shewn to him 1 J have loved Psalm â—â—4 Because our Lord will hear the voice of my prayer 2 Because he has inclin'd his ear to me And J will call upon him all the days of my life 3 The sorrows of death have besett me And the dangers of hell are come upon me 4 J have mett with tribulation and greif And J have called upon the name of our Lord. 5 O Lord free my soul our Lord is mercifull and just Our God is full of pitty 6 Our Lord takes care of litle ones J was humbled Psalm 114. and he deliver'd me 7 Return my soul to thy rest Because our Lord has been bountifull to thee 8 Because he has freed my soul from death my eyes from tears and my feet from falling 9 J will please our Lord in the land of the living PSALME CXV Credidi propter quod This Psalme in the hebrew is a continuation of of the former and it containes the thanks of the Prophet to God for having loosen'd his bonds and deliver'd him from a great danger 1 J Have beleeved and therfor J did speak Psâ—lm 115. But J have been exceedingly humbled 2 J said in my transport of mind Every man is a lyer 3 What shall J render to our Lord for all the benefites J have received from him J will take the cup of salvation And call upon the name of our Lord. 4 J will perfom my vows to our Lord in the presence of all his people Pretious in the sight of our Lord is the death of his saints 5. O Lord because J am thy servant Because J am thy servant and the son of thy hand maid 6 Thou hast broken my bonds And J will sacrifice to thee a victime of praise And J will call upon the name of our Lord. 7 J will perform my vows to our Lord in the sight of all his people At the entrance of the house of
of the Just. 7 For our Lord knows and approuves the way of the Just But the way of the Impious will end in destruction PSALME II. Quare fremuerunt This Psalm thô without a Title as the former has David for the Author and is cited as his Act. 4. v. 5. where it is applyd to Christ and the Church So likewise S. Paul applys those words Thou art my son J this day have begot the to Christ Heb. 1. v. 5. and the Iews themselves think this Psalm relatâ—s to their Messias Certain it is that under the figure of David and his Reign Christ and his Kingdom are represented the firmnes of his Empire and of his Church are described together with the vain conspiracies of men against it All Kings and Princes are invited to be obedient to it 1 WHy are the Gentils in a rage Psalm And the Nations in a vain conspiracy 2 The Kings of the earth have stood up And the Princes have assembled against our Lord and against his Christ saying 3 Let us break their bonds And let us throw of their yoke 4 But he who dwells in the heavens will laugh at them And our Lord will turn them to derision 5 Then he will speak to them in his anger And in his fury he will confound them 6 But I am constituted by him King over Sion his holy Mountain To hold forth his Law 7 Our Lord said to me Thou art my son I this day have begot thee 8 Ask it of me and I wil give thee the Nations for thy Inheritance And the whole earth shall be in thy possession 9 Thou shalt rule them with a rod of iron Psalm 2. And like a potters Vessel thou shalt break them in pieces 10 And now you Kings be wise Learn well your duty you that judge the earth 11 Serve our Lord with fear Rejoyce and tremble before him 12 Imbrace discipline Least out Lord should be angry and you perish by leaving the way of the Just. 13 When his Indignation shall break out on the sudden Happy are they who confide in him PSALME III. Domine quid multiplicati This in the Title is called the Psalm of David when he fled from the face of Absalon his son as it is related 2. Reg. 15. v. 14. he declares that he puts his hope only in God and describes how powerfull his assistance is and on the contrary how vain the designs of the enemies are 1 WHy o Lord Psalm 3. do's the number increase of those who persecute me Many are they who rise up against me 2 Many say to my soul in vain she seeks for safety from her God 3 But thou o Lord art my protector and my glory by thee my head has been rais'd 4 I have cry'd out with a lowd voice to our Lord and he has heard me from his holy mountain 5 I slept took my rest and have rose up again because our Lord hath protected me 6 I shall not fear those thousands of people that incompass me rise up and save me O Lord my God! 7 For thou hast struck down all that oppose me without cause thou hast broken the teeth of sinners 8 There is no safety but from our Lord by thee my God! thy people are blest PSALME IV. Cum invocarem exaudivit This Psalm is upon the same subject with the former and seems to have been made much at the same time David implores the help of God exhorts the Princes that revolted to desist from their rebellion and to acknowledge him for King as having been so constituted by God 1 WHen I call'd upon him Psalm 4. the God of my justice did hear me thou didst inlarge me when I was in distresse 2 Still have mercy on me and hear my prayer 3 Yee sons of men how long will your hearts be stupid Why do you love vanity and seek after lyes 4 Know that our Lord has done wonderfull things for his holy one he will hear me when I cry out to him 5 Be angry and sin not what you have said in your hearts repent upon your beds 6 Offer a sacrifice of justice and put your confidence in our Lord many say who will shew us good things 7 The light of thy countenance o Lord is printed on us thou hast powr'd joy into my heart 8 They by their plenty of wheat of wine of oyle increase and grow rich 9 I at the same time in peace will sleep and be at rest 10 Because thou o Lord in a singular manner hast strengthen'd me with hope PSALME V. Verba mea auribus This Psalm shews to have been made by David when he was sett upon by the wicked He begs of God to hear his prayers he imprecates the Impious wishing them deserved punishments and conforts the pious and the just with the hope of reward 1 GIve ear o Lord to my words Psalm 5. understand my cry 2 Be attentive to the voice of my prayer my King and my God For to thee I will pray early in the morning o Lord thou shalt hear my voice 4 Early will I stand before thee and I shall know that thou art not a God that loveth iniquity 5 Nor shall the wicked dwell near thee nor the unjust remain in thy sight 6 Thou hatest all doers of injustice thou wilt destroy all that speak lyes 7 The bloody and the deceitfull man our Lord will abominate but I through the abundance of thy mercy 8 Will enter into thy house I will adore in thy holy Temple with fear and reverence 9 Conduct me o Lord in the vvay of thy justice look after me and direct my ways in regard of my enemies 10 Because there is no truth in their mouth vain and hollow is their heart 11 Their throat is an open sepulcher they have dealt deceitfully with their tongues judge them o God! 12 Let them miscarry in their designs according to the multitude of their iniquitys expell them because they have provok'd thee o Lord 13 And let all rejoyce who hope in thee for ever they will be fill'd with joy and thou wilt dwell in them 14 And all will have glory in thee who love thy name for thou wilt bless the just one 15 With thy mercy o Lord as with a sheild thou hast incompas'd us PSALME VI. Domine ne in furore In this Psalm David first sets forth the violence of his sicknes In the next place he begs God to free him from it and lastly he describes the consternation of his Enemies upon his prayers being heard and his health restored to him 1 O Lord Psalm 6. rebuke me not in thy indignation nor chastise me in thy anger 2 Have mercy on me o Lord because I am infirm heal me o Lord for my bones are all in disorder 3 My soul is extremely afflicted but thou o Lord Say how long 4 Turn to me o Lord and rescue my soul save me for thy mercies sake 5 For the dead
is raised up to the heavens And thy truth up to the clouds 14 Be exalted O God! above all the heavens And over all the earth let thy glory shine PSALME LVII Si verè utique justitiam David takes occasion from the fury of Saul against him and the malice of his Enemys to reprehend in this Psalme all wicked men And S. Austin observes that wee ought with respect to hear the truths herein declared as a sermon made to all mankâ—nd 1 IF you say truely what is Iust Psalm 57. Judge allso according to justice yee sons of men 2 But you form iniquitys in your hearts And your hands execute injustice upon the earth 3 Sinners are perverted as soon as they come into the world From their mothers womb they have gone wrong They have spoken false 4. Their rage is like that of a serpent like that of a deaf aspe stopping his ears 5 Which will not hear the voice of the charmers nor of the magician Let him charm never so skillfully 6 God will break their teeth in their mouths the laws of these Lyons our Lord will tear in sunder 7 They will come to nothing like water that flows His bow remains bent till they be quite defeated 8 Like wax that melts they will drop away Fire fell upon them and they saw the sun no more 9 Before your sprouting thorns grow up to a tree as it were alive he will swallow them up in his anger 10 The just man will rejoice when he sees vengeance executed he will wash his hands in the blood of the sinner 11 Man will then say if there bee a reward for the just there is certainly a God who judges mankind upon the earth PSALME LVIII Eripe de inimicis meis David implores the help of God against his Enemyes he describes the snares that were layd for him he magnifys the divine assistance impreâ—ats his Enemies 1 REscue me Psalm 58. my God! out of the hands of my Enemyes And defend me against those that rise up against me 2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity Psalm 57. And save me from the men of blood 3 For behold they have my life in their power and with a mighty force they sett upon me 4 Nor is it for any iniquity of mine O Lord or for my sin My courses and my conduct have been without crime 5 Rise up and come towards me behold my condition Thou O Lord The God of all power the God of Israel 6 Set thyself upon visiting all the Nations And take no pitty of any that work iniquity 7 Thy will return in the evening famish'd like hungry dogs And they will run about the citty 8 They will open their mouths And there is a sword in their lips They will say who has heard us 9 But thou O Lord wilt laugh at them Thou wilt bring to nothing all the Nations 10 For thee I will preserve the strength thou hast given me Because thou O God! art my defender the mercy of my God will go before me Psalm 58. 11 God will let me see how he will dispose of my enemies Let them not dye least my people should grow forgetfull 12 But disperse them by thy power And pull them down O Lord who art my protector 13 For the sins of their tongue and speeches of their lips And let them be apprehended and caught in their pride 14 And their Lyes and execrations will be charged upon them in the consummation In the wrath of consummation And they will wither to nothing 15 And they shall Know that God will rule over Israel And from one end of the earth to the other 16 They will return in the evening and be famished like hungry dogs And they will run about the citty 17 They will be dispersed to seek their meat And if they are not fill'd they will murmur 18 But I will sing the praises of thy power And early in the morning I will magnify thy mercy 19 Because thou art become a protector to me And my refuge in the day of tribulation 20 I will praise thee my defender with voice and instruments For thou art my mercifull God PSALME LIX Deus repulisti This Psalm made by David before his expedition against the Moabites and the Idumeans sets forth in the first place the danger and fear of the Israelites upon having so many enemies round about them ready to fall upon them Next he implores the divine assistance in confidence of which he foretels his victory over all his Enemies 1 O God! thou hast rejected us Psalm 59. thou hast undone us thou hast been angry with us And at last thou hast taken pity of us 2 Thou hast shaked the land and put it into confusion Heal the breaches of it for t' is all out of order 3 Thou hast made thy people feel hardships Thou hast given them the wine of sorrow to drink 4 To those who fear thee thou hast given a signe that they should fly before the bow 5 That thy beloved ones may be preserved Protect me with thy right hand and hear me 6 God has said by his holy Prophet that I shall receive and share out the land of Sichem And shall measure the vally of the tents 7 Galaad is mine and Manasses is mine And Ephraim is the chief of my strength 8 Judah is the seat of my Empire Moab the vessel of my hope 9 I will march on into Idumea And foreigners shall become my subjects 10 Who will lead me to their fortified Citty who will conduct me into the midle of Idumea 11 Is it not thou my God! who a while since rejected us And wilt thou not go forth with us at the head of our armies 12 Relieve us O Lord in our distresses For vain is the safety which comes from man 13 With the help of our God wee will performe great actions And t' is he who will bring to nothing all that afflict us PSALME LX. Exaudi Deus deprecationem This Psalm seems to have been composed by king David in the time of Absalom's conspiracy And whereas he was then a fugitive and gone from Ierusalem the holy fathers have proposed the prayer which he makes as an excellent modell of that which the Church of Iesus-Christ should offer to God in the banishment of this world and in the midle of all the temptations of his life 1 HEar O God! Psalm 36. my supplication Give ear to my prayer 2 From one end of the land to the other I have cried out to thee when my heart was full of anxiety thou didst raise me up upon a firm rock 3 Thou hast led me forwards and art become my Hope My tower of strength against all my enemies 4 I will dwell in thy tabernacle for ever I will be shelterd under the cover of thy wings 5 Because thou my God! hast heard my prayer Thou hast bâ—stowed an inheritance upon those who fear thy name 6 Thou wilt add
by telling them that God as a suprem Iudge presides in the middle of them and will call them to account for the judgements they shall give 1 GOd is present in the assembly of the Gods Psalm 81. and being in the midle of them he judgeth the Gods 2 How long therefor will you judge unjustly how long will you have partiall respect to the persons of sinners 3 Judge the cause of the poor and of the orphan and do justice to the oppressed and the needy 4 Rescue the poor and deliver the indigent from the oppression of the sinner 5 But they are ignorant and void of understanding they walk in the dark For this reason the fundations of the world will be shaken 6 I have sayd you are Gods and all of you sons of the most high 7 But you shall dy like men and shall fall like other Princes 8 Rise up O God! and judge the earth for all the nations will become thy inheritance PLALME LXXXII Deus quis similis erit tibi The time when this Psalme was made is also much controverted amongst interpreters It was certainly made upon the occasion of some great and dangerous war which threatned the Iews and it is very proper to excite in us a confidence in God in the midle of the greatest dangers 1 O God! who shall be like to thee Psalm 82. Be not silent nor de lay any longer shewing thy power 2 For behold thy enemys have made a great noise And those who hate thee have lifted up their head 3 They have form'd malitious designs against thy people and have conspired against thy saints 4 They have said Come Let us exterminate them from amongst the nations that the name of Israel may be quite forgott 5 To this end they have conspired together and are joyn'd in confederacy against thee with the Tents of the Idumeans and of the Ismaelites 6 Moab and the Agarens Gebal and Ammon and Amalech the strangers together with the inhabitants of Tyrus 7 Also the Assyrians are come up to them And are become auxiliarys to the sons of Lot 8 Do by them as thou hast done by the Madianites and by Cicera And as thou hast done by Jabin near the torrent of Cisson 9 They were destroy'd in Endor and they became like dung upon the earth 10 Dispose of their Princes as thou didst of Oreb and Zebel and Salmena 11 All those Princes who have said Come let us possess the sanctuary of God as our owne inheritance My God! turn them about like a wheel and like chaff before the wind 13 As a fire kindled burns down the wood of a forest and as a flame consumes the mountains 14 So will thy tempest drive them before the And thy anger put them to an utter route 15 Fill their faces with Ignominy And they will seek thy name O Lord 16 Otherwise Let their confusione and their terrours last allways Let them be covered with shame and perish 17 And let them know that thy name is Lord And that thou art the only most high upon the earth PSALME LXXXIII Quam dilecta tabernacula The subject of this Psalme seems to be the same with that of the 41. ch wherein David expresseth his great desire of seeing again the tabernacle of our Lord at the time â—hen his persecutions had remoued him at a distance from it But principally it ought to be applied to the ardent desire which the faithfull in the banishment of this life have of injoying God in heaven which is their true country 1 HOw louely are thy tabernacles Psalm 83. O Lord of hosts my soul does languish with ardent desire of entering into the house of our Lord. 2 My heart and my whole body with transports of joy seek the living God 3 Even the sparrow finds a lodging for itself And the turtle a nest wherin to place its young ones 4 Thy Altars O Lord of hosts my king and my God! are my place of rest 5 Happy are they who dwell in thy house O Lord For ever and ever they will praise thee 6 Blessed is the man whos help is from thee he disposeth his heart in this vaile of tears to be still rising upward to the place he hath proposed to himself 7 For the maker of the law will give his benediction They will rise from vertue to vertue They will see the God of Gods in Sion 8 O Lord the God of Hosts hear my prayer hearken to me O God of Jacob 9 Look upon us O God our protector and cast thine eyes upon the face of thy Christ. 10 For better is one day in thy tabernacles then a thousand any wher els 11 I have chosen rather to be the lowest in the house of my God then to dwell in the tents of sinners 12 For God is a lover of mercy and of truth our Lord is the giver of grace and glory 13 He will not deprive thos of his goods who walk in innocence O Lord of Hosts blessed is the man who hopes in thee PSALME LXXXIV Benedixisti Domine This Psalme may be said to containe a double prediction vâ—z of the return from the Captivity of Babylon and of the generall redemption of mankind which was to proceed from the incarnation of the word 1 THou hast given thy blessing Psalm 84. O Lord to thy Land thou hast delivered Jacob from captivity 2 Thou hast pardon'd the iniquity of thy people thou hast cover'd all their sins 3 Thou hast wholy appeas'd thy anger And hast diverted from us the rigour of thy indignation 4 Convert us to thee O God our saviour and turn away thy anger from us 5 Wilt thou for ever be incensed against us wilt thou extend thy anger from generation to generation 6 O God! in turning towards us thou wilt give us life And thy people will rejoice in thee 7 Shew thy mercy to us O Lord and give us thy saving assistance 8 I will hearken to what our Lord God shal speak within mee for he will speak peace to his people 9 And to his saints And to all thos who are converted at heart 10 His salvation is certainly near at hand to thos who fear him that so glory may dwell in our Land 11 Mercy and truth have met together justice and peace have kissed each other 12 Truth is sprung up fom the earth And justice has look'd down from heaven 13. For our Lord will powr down his blessing And out Land will yeeld its fruit 14 Justice will walk before him And in the way will direct his steps PSALME LXXXV Inclina Domine It appears by this Psalme that David was pressed with some great affliction possibly the persecution of Saul when he made this Psalme â—hich containes a fervent prayer to God to hear him and assist him in his mercy This Psalme also containes a clear prophesy of the conversion of the gentils 1 BOw down thine ear Psalm 85. O Lord heare me for j
strength 9 Judah is the seat of my Empire Moab vessel of my hope 10 I will march into Idumea strangers are now become my friends 11 Who will lead me to the fortifyed Citty who will conduct me into the midle of Idumea 12 Is it not thou My God who a while since rejected us And wilt thou not go forth with us at the head of our armys 13 Releeve us O Lord in our distresses For vain is the safety which comes from man 14 With the help of our God wee will performe great actions and he will bring to nothing all our Enemys PSALME CVIII Deus laudem meam David in this Psalme describes the malice of his Enemies he imprecats them and sets forth his owne affliction imploring the help of God But David as a Prophet inspired by God had in his view the persecution which the Iews raised against Iesus-Christ and the treason of Iudas one of his Apostles as it appears by the testimony both of St. Peter and St. Iohn who cite verses of this Psalme to that purpose 1 O God! conceal not my praise Psalm 108. for the mouth of the sinner and the mouth of the deceiver are opened against me 2 They spake against me with a deceitfull tongue And the expressions of their hatred were heard on all sides And they have sett upon me without Cause 3 In stead of loving me as they ought they have calumniated me But J still have pray'd to thee 4 And they render'd to me evill for good And hatred for love 5 Place the sinner over him And let the devill stand upon his right hand 6 When he comes to be judged Psalm 108. let him go off condemned And let his prayer become his sin 7 Let his days be shortned And let another take his ministry 8 Let his children become orphans And his wife a widow 9 Let his children be vagabonds and beg And let them be driven out of their habitations 10 Let the Usurer lay hold on his Estate And let strangers seize upon the fruits of his labours 11 Let there be no body to help him Nor to take pity of his orphan children 12 Let all that is born of him be destroyed And in one generation let his name be extinguish'd 13 Let the memory of his Progenitors iniquitys be still revived in the presence of our Lord And let not the sin of his mother be ever blotted out 14 Let their crimes be still in the sight of our Lord And let their memory perish upon the earth Because he did not remember to do mercy 15 But persecuted an indigent and poor man and sought his life whos heart was peirced with sorrow 16 He loved malediction and it will come upon him He rejected benediction And it will not come near him 17 And he covered himself with malediction as with a garment It enterd into his bowells like water and like oyl penetrated even to his very bones 18 Let it be to him as a garment that covers him And like a girdle that allways go's round him 19 Thus will my detracters be treated by our Lord And they who conspire against my life 20 And thou O Lord O Lord assist me for the sake of thy name Because thou art full of mercy and goodnes 21 Deliver me for J am poor and indigent and my heart is disturbed within me 22 Like the shadow which declines I pass away And like the Locust J am driven from place to place 23 My knees are weaken'd with fasting And my flesh is all changed for want of oyl 24 J am become a subject of mockery to them They have look'd upon me and shaked their heads at me 25 O Lord my God! succor me save me according to thy mercy 26 Let them see thy hand in it And And that it is thou O Lord that hast done it 27 They will curse me and thou wilt bless me Let thos who rise up against me be coverd with shame But let thy servant be fill'd with joy 28 Let thos who calumniat me be clothed with confusion And let them be wrapp'd up in their owne infamy as with a double cloak 19 I will praise our Lord with the whole force of my voice And I will sing his praises in the midle of the great assembly 30 Because he has stood by me in my poverty to save my life from thos who persecuted me PLALME CIX Dixit Dominus This prophetick Psalme both by the Title and by what our saviour himself said of it is certainly of Davids making It contains a prophecy concerning the Messias as the Iews themselves did owne when our saviour confuted them out of it It declares that the Messias shall sitt at the right hand of God shall reigne amongst the Nations That his preis thod shall be eternall That kings skall fall before him and that all shall be overcome by him 1 THe Lord said to my Lord Psalm 109. sit on my right hand 2 Untill I bring thy enemies to be thy foot stool 3 Our Lord will send forth the scepter of thy Kingdome out of Sion Go and rule in the midle of thy Enemies 4 Thy Empire will appear in the day of thy strength in the splendor of thy saints Before the morning I begat thee 5 Our Lord has sworn and he will not repent Thou art a Preist for all eternity according to the order of Melchisedeck 6 Our Lord on thy right hand has destroy'd Kings in the day of his Anger 7 7 He will judge the Nations he will fill all with ruine he will crush on the ground the heads of many 8 He will drink out of the Torrent in the high way therfor in glory he will exalt his head PSALME CX Confitebor tibi Domine This Psalme containes praises and thanks givings to God for the great wonders he has done in favour of the People of Israel which are much more applicable to what he has done in favour of his Church 1 I will praise thee Psalm 110. O Lord with my whole heart In the assembly and Congregation of the just 2 Great are the works of our Lord exquisite in all his designs 3 His works are glorious and magnificent his justice abides for ever 4 Our mercifull and indulgent Lord has perpetuated sustenance for all that fear him 5 He will all ways remember his Covenant he will make known to his people the mightines of his works 6 That he may give them the inheritance of the Nations All his works are full of truth and justice 7 All his precepts are inviolable established for all ages Formed according to truth and equity 8 He has sent a redeemer to his people he has made a Covenant with them for all eternity 9 Holy and terrible is his name The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdome 10 They who fear him are truely wise His glory remaines for ever and ever PSALME CXI Beatus vir This Psalme contains the praises of the vertuous and
