generall use of all that will take paines to compare the Scriptures The Table in the end is to help the Reader to find readily the places where words are once opened as Jehovah God Lord and many other which are often used and but once explained the Table directeth to Psal 83.19 Psal 3.3 Psal 2.4 where in the annotations on those places the explanations are found By this also the Reader may see the reasons of some words added in the metre which els might seem strange as where I say O Lord-my stayes Psal 73 20. when in the prose it is but O lord if he look the place where this word Lord is opened Psal 2 4. he shall find the Hebrew to signify my stayes or Sustainers which therefore for the verse sake I sometime annexe Now to speak a word of singing in general The scripture sheweth us two sorts of Psalmes First such as were written by the Prophets and specially David to be left unto the Church as a part of the Canonicall word of God Luke 24.44 Secondly such as were uttered by voice in the assemblies and not written but served for the present use of the Church as other gifts of doctrine interpretation c. 1. Corinth 14.26 The first sort being Gods infallible word were sung in his Church with harmonie of voices and the other scriptures were read 1. Corinth 16.7.8 2. Chron. 29.25.27.30 Act. 25.21 The later sort being but inferiour gifts were sung by him that had them and judged of by those that heard even as doctrines interpretations and other like gifts 1. Corinth 14.26.29.32 Psalmes of holy scripture are perpetually to be sung in the Church For God hath given his word partly in prose to be read partly in metre to be sung Luke 4.16 2. Sam. 23 1 2. Col. 3.16 2. Chron. 29 25 27 30. Psal 98 1 4 c. Also God hath given men the facultie not onely of speaking but of singing and all that is in us is to be used to the lauding of God and edifying of his Church Psal 103 1 2. 1. Corinth 14 26. And although psalteries harps and other instruments were used in Israel with the song Psal 150.3 4 5. 2. Chron. 29 25 26 27. yet doth not the ceasing of that musik abolish the singing of psalms with melodie in our hearts any more than the ceasing of incense which was burned with prayer doth abolish now prayer out of the Church Psal 141 2. Luk. 1 10. But great use and benefit there shall be alway of singing Psalmes as The celebrating of God his name and works Exod. 15 1. Psal 92.2 3 4 and 147 1. The teaching instructing comforting of our selves Psal 32 1 8 and 78 1 2. Colos 3 16. The alaying of our inordinate passions anger grief care c. Psal 77 6 7. 2. King 3.13 14 15. Stirring up of good affections in us joy comfort fervencie in the spirit c. 2. Sam. 6 15 16. Psal 42.12 and 57 8 9 10. Facilitie and ease for us to learn the law of God with more delight Psal 49.2 3. c. and 78 2 3 c. Deut. 31 19 22 30. with other like comfortable uses the godly doe feel in themselves To help therefore the saints in the comfortable use of this exercise have I imployed my strength in this work and shall think it wel bestowed if it may serve to Gods glory and the benefit of his people Henry Ainsworth THE BOOK OF PSALMES OR HIMNES PSALM I.
