earth shall drink therof 9 But I will declare and will sing for â—ver the praises of the God of Jacob. 10 And I will destroy all the force of â—he wicked And the just shall be exalted in glory and power PSALME LXXV Notus in Judea Deus Theodoret and many others think this Psalme was made upon the miraculous defeat of the Assyrians which happen'd in the Reign of Ezechias when a hundred and fourscore thousand men of the army of Zenachâ—rib were kill'd in one nighâ— by the angel of our Lord But it appears â—hat the subject of this Psalme iâ— of a more large extent And that it regards not only the town of old Ierusalem delivered at that time from such formidable Enemys but also the nâ—w Ierusalem the Church every day delivered from visible and invisible enemys by the hand of the angel of the great Councill who is Iesus-Christ 1 GOd is known in Judea Psalm 48. Great is his name in Israel 2 His dwelling is in a place of peace And his habitation is in Sion 3 There he hath broke in peeces the bows the arrowes the buckler the sword war it self 4 By thy wonderfull coruscation from the eternall mountains All â—he senseles of heart have been confounded 5 They have slept out their sleâ—p And waking thes men of riches found nothing in their hands 6 By thy lowd threatnings O God of Jacob Psalm 75. all those that were mounted on horses have slept their last sleep 7 Thou art terrible And who can resist thee in the time of thy anger 8 From heaven thou hast made thy judgement to be heard The earth trembled and was silent 9 When God rose up in jugment to save the meek and the humble upon the earth 10 Therfore the thought of man shall be taken up with thy praises And the memory which remains of them will be a continued festivall to thee 11 Make vows and fullfill them to the Lord your God All you that approche his altar to make your offerings 12 To the dreadfull God To him that takes a way the lives of Princes who is â—errible to the kings of the earth PSALME LXXVI Voce mea ad Dominum There is nothing certain concerning the time in which this Psalme was made The opinion of those authors seems probable who think the Prophet had in view the delivrance from the Captivity of Babylon But with S. Austin it may well be apply'd to the just and the perfect who looking towards heaven suffer with pain the banishement of this present life 1 WIth a lowd voice I have called upon our Lord Psalm 76. I have called upon God and he has hearken'd to me 2 In the day of my tribulation I have sought God By night I have lifted up my hands to him and I have not been disappointed 3 My soul has refused all other comfort I have called God to minde and I found joy With continuall meditation my soul has languished 4 My eyes prevented the night watch I was disturbed within myself and I was silent 5 I called to mind the antient days And the years eternall have possessed my thoughts 6 By night I have been in deep meditation My thoughts have been in labour and I have swept my soul. 7 Will God eternally cast us off And will he never think of being more favourable to us 8 Will he for ever from generation to generation cut off his mercy from us 9 Can God forget his mercy Or will his anger allways keep back his commiseration 10 And I said Now I begin to understand This change is wrought by the right hand of the most high 11 I call'd to memory the works of our Lord And I will still have in my thoughts the wonders thou hast done from the beginning 12 And I will meditate on all thy works and I will consider with attention the secrets of thy conduct 13 Thy way O God! is allways holy What God is ther so great as our God â—hou art the God that does wonderfull things 14 Thou hast made Known thy power amongst the nations By the strength of thy arme thou hast delivered thy people the sons of Jacob and Joseph 15 The waters have seen thee O God! the waters have seen thee and they were affraid and the depths were troubled 16 Great was the noise of the waters and the clouds made their voice heard 17 For thy darts were thrown And the wheels of the Egiptians felt thy thunder 18 Thy lightning did flash over the whole earth the earth was in commotion and trembled 19 Thou didst make a way for thy self throw the sea Thou didst pass throw the midle of the waters and none can trace thy footsteps 20 Thou didst lead thy people like a flock of sheep in the hands of Moses and Aaron PSALME LXXVII Attendite Popule meus S. Ierome and some othâ—r interpreters observe according to the citations of S. Mathew and S. Paul that under the historicall sense which appears in this Psalme there lyes a spirituall sense which is the reason that the Prophet says in the beginning he will speak mysterys in paraboles This Psalme therfore in the spirituall sense has a reference to Iesus-Christ born according to the flesh of the tribe of Iudah oâ— which t' is said that God has chosen Iudah and not Ephraim This prophâ—tically denotes that he who was to be born of the race of David and consequently of the tribe of Iudah would establish a new kingdom which should put an end to the kingdome of Israel figured by Ephraim 1 MY people Psalm 77. give attention to my law hearken to the word I shall speak 2 I will open my mouth in parables I will speak misterys of things done from the beginning 3 What wee have heard and known And what our fore fathers have related to us 4 And what hath not been hidden to their children nor to the following generations 5 They have published the praises of our Lord his great power and the wonders he has done 6 He has made Known his will in Jacob and he establish'd his law in Israël 7 Which he has commanded our fathers to make known to their children That the succeeding generations may also know them 8 The sons that shall be born and rise vp that they may also deliver them to their children 9 To the end that they may put their trust in God that they may not forget his works and that they may mind and seek after his commandments 10 Least they become like their forefathers a depraved and provoking generation 11 A generation whos heart was not sett right to God And whos soul was unfaithfull to him 12 The sons of Ephraim formerly so dexterous to bend the bow and shoot their arows have now turned their backs in the day of battle 13 They did not keep the covenant made with God nor did they walk in the way of his law 14 They forgott the benefites they had received from him and
days upon days to the life of the king Thou wilâ— make his years reach from generation to generation Psalm 90. 7 He will remain for ever in the presence of God who can search to the bottome his mercy and his truth 8 Therfore will I praise thy name in Psalms from age to age That I may never faile from day to day to performe my vows PSALME LXI Nonne Deo subjecta erit It is beleeved that David made this Psalm about the same time with the former he exhorts himself and all his to put their confidence in God and to expect no relief but from him Above all he warns men not to rely upon riches nor unjust actions 1 SHall not my soule be subject to God Psalm 61. since from him comes my salvation 2 For he is my God and my Saviour He is my protector and I shall never more be disturbed 3 How long will you all sett upon a single man and combine to kill him And run him down as if he were a bending wall and a building ready to fall 4 They have conspired to deprive me of my dignity I have run with great thirst Their mouth did bless me and their heart did curse me 5 However my soule be thou subject to God For my patience comes from him 6 Because he is my God and my Saviour He is my supporter and I will not move out of my place 7 In God is my safety and my glory My succour is from God and in God is my hope 8 Let the whole congregation of the people hope in him Poure forth your hearts before him God is our defender for ever 9 But vaine are the sons of men The sons of men are lyars in their balances They conspire together by vanity to deceivé 10 Build not your hope upon injustice cover not wealth got by rapine And if riches do abound set not your hearts upon them 11 Once God has spokâ— and I heard these two things That power belongs to God and that to thee o Lord mercy belongs For thou wilt render to every body according to their works PSALME LXII Deus Deus meus ad te de luce vigilo The most part of the interpreters apply this Psalme to the time of Saul and believe that David made it when he fled into the desert of Siph to avoid Saul's fury Tho some are of opinion it may have been made in the time of Absalom's revolte when he was likewise forced to retire into a desert He deplores his exile and his absence from the Tabernacle and the Ark at the same time considers in a higher sense his absence from his true country ' which 〈◊〉 heaven And therfore the prayer which he makes is very proper for all the just who look upon this life but as a banishment 1 O God Psalm 62. my God! from the break of day I watch for thee 2 Both my soule and my body exceedingly thirst after thee 3 In this desert land unpassable and without water I present myself before thee as if I were in thy sanctuary to contemplate thy power and thy glory 4 Because thy mercy is more to be esteemd then life My lipps shall pronounce thy praises 5 I will praise thee in this manner during my whole life And with hands lifted up I will call upon thy name 6 Let my soule be replenish'd as it were with marrow and fattnes And with joyfull lipps I will offer thy praises 7 If on my bed I have been mindfull of thee I will likewise in the morning meditate on thee Because thou hast assisted me 8 And I will rejoyce under the shelter of thy wings My soule sticks fast to thee Thy right hand has held me up 9 In vain have they sought my life They shall themselues go into the lowest part of the earth They shall bee deliverd up to the sword and shall be meat for foxes 10 But the king shall rejoyce in God All shall be praised who swear by his holy name For their mouths are stopt who spake iniquity PSALME LXIV Exaudi Deus deprecationem This Psalme may have been composed by David either in the time of Saul's persecution or in that of Absalom's rebellion The holy Fathers in the spirituall sense apply it to Iesus Christ and to the faithfull that are members of his Church 1 HEar my prayer Psalm 63. O God! when I offer it to thee Free my soule from the fear of my enemy 2 Thou hast protected me against the convention of wicked men Against the multitude of the doers of injustice 3 For they have made their tongues as sharp as a sword They have bent their bow with bitternes That they may secretly strike an innocent man 4 They will wound him all on the sudden and fear nothing They are fixed in their wicked resolutions 5 They have consulted how to cover their snares And they have said who can find them out 6 They searched about for crimes to charge me with They unprofitably tyr'd themselves in the scrutiny 7 Man will forme deep designs in his heart But God will be glorifyed 8 Their arrows strike no deeper then those of children And their tongues have not any force but against them selues 9 All were amazed that saw them And every man was in fear 10 And they published what God had done And they understood his works 11 The just will rejoice in our Lord and will hope in him And all the upright of heart will have praise PSALME LXIV Te decet hymnus Deus This Psalme according to the letter of it seems to be made about the time of the Israelites going out of Babylon and returning to Ierusalem It is to be applyed in the spirituall sense to the church delivered from the Captivity of the Devâ—â— by the death of our Saviour Iesus-Christ 1 A Hymne in Sion becomes thee Psalm 64.
