When God arose to judge and save All those that humble and meek were 10 The furious wrath of cruel men Shall surely to thy praise redound And the remainder of their wrath Thou wilt restrain and strictly bound 11 Vow to the Lord your God and pay All you that are un to him near And bring your Presents unto him That ought to be your chiefest fear 12 The greatest Princes spirits all Quickly by him cut off shall be And to the Kings that Rule on earth At last most terrible is he PSALM LXXVII 1 I With my fervent voice did cry To God in all my grief and fear Even to my God with mournful voice And he to me in time gave ear 2 I sought God in my woful day My constant sore did run all night My grieved soul did put away All offer'd comfort and delight 3 I did remember God but yet My grief and trouble did remain My spirit over-whelmed was And did in me too much complain 4 Mine eyes depriv'd of quiet sleep By night thou keepest still awake My trouble is so great and sore That I can very hardly speak 5 Thy dealings in the days of old I then did mind and think upon What thou in former ancient times Hast for me and thy people done 6 My songs by night I call'd to mind I search'd and commun'd with my heart My spirit diligently fought The cause and cure of all my smart 7 For ever will the Lord cast off And will he gracious be no more 8 For ever is his mercy gone Fails his good word for evermore 9 Can it be that his graciousness To us the Lord forgotten hath And that his tender mercies he Hath shut up now in endless wrath 10 Then said I These are but the thoughts Of my faulty infirmity I 'le look back to the years past gone And the right hand of the most high 11 I will yet meditate upon The former great works of the Lord Of those great wonders I will think Of old which are upon record 12 Thy great and gracious works I will My frequent meditation make And of thy doings to discourse My daily work and pleasure take 13 Thy holy way O God is in Thy sacred house and there made known There is no other God of might But our God the Almighty One. 14 Thou only art the God of Power Whose doings all great wonders are And thou among the people all Thy strength and greatness didst declare 15 Thou hast with thine Almighty arm From bonds thy chosen people freed Redeeming from Captivity Jacob's and Joseph's numerous seed 16 The waters deep saw thee O God They saw thee and backward they fled As if afraid The depths also Retir'd as by fear troubled 17 The clouds their waters poured out A dreadful sound came from the sky And then unto the frightened earth Abroad thy hurtful arrows fly 18 Thy Thunder's voice was in the heav'ns Thy Lightning flashed from the sky Lightning the world The trembling earth Did quake as it were fear'd thereby 19 Thy way is in the rowling seas The unseen paths where thou hast gone In the great waters and thy steps To earthly mortals are unknown 20 Thy people thou didst keep and lead Even like a shepherd's flock of sheep By Moses and by Aaron's hand Thou didst them guide and safely keep PSALM LXXVIII 1 GIve ear you that my people are Unto my Law and word of truth Incline your ear to all the words Which I shall utter with my mouth 2 In Parables I 'le ope my mouth And utter dark sayings of old 3 Which we our selves have heard and known And which our fathers have us told 4 We will not hide them from their seed But shew unto the age to come God's praises and his strength and all The wondrous works that he hath done 5 A Testimony and a Law He made and gave to Israel Which he our fathers charg'd that they Should after to their children tell 6 That so the children yet unborn And ages coming might them know Who should arise and them likewise In time unto their children show 7 That they might not forgeâ— God's works But on him set their hope and heart And keep all his commandements And never more from them depart 8 And might not as their ancestors Be stubborn and rebellious found A race whose heart was not set right Whose spirit was not with God found 9 For then the sons of Ephraim Being in arms and carrying bows Yet in the day of battle they Turned their backs upon their foes 10 They brake God's Covenant and refus'd In his commanded way to go 11 And did forget his works and all The wonders he to them did show 12 Marvellous things did he perform Which all their fathers then beheld Both in the land of Egypt first And afterwards in Zoan field 13 He did divide for them the sea And caused them through it to pass And made the waters on each side To stand even like a heap it was 14 With cloud by day by light of fire In the dark night he did them guide 15 In the desart he clave the rock And drink as from the deeps supply'd 16 He from the rock brought flowing streams And made the waters to run down 17 Yet in the desart sinning more They did provoke the Highest One. 18 For in their heart they tempted God And speaking with sinful distrust They greedily did call for meat To satisfie their fleshly lust 19 Yea even against the Lord himself They grudging spake prophanely thus Can God here in this wilderness A furnish'd table spread for us 20 Indeed he smote the rock and thence There flowed streams of waters great And can he give his people bread And provide flesh for them to eat 21 This the Lord heard and then his wrath Did kindle a consuming flame Which against Jacob did come up His anger against Israel came 22 Because they did not God believe Nor trust in his salvation had 23 Though clouds above he did command And he heav'ns doors had open made 24 And rain'd down Manna upon them And gave them corn from heav'n to eat 25 So that Man did eat Angels food And to the full he gave them meat 26 From heav'n he made the East-wind blow Brought the South-wind by his command 27 He rained flesh on them as dust And feather'd fowl as the sea-sand 28 Even in their Camp and round about Their habitation it did fall 29 So they did eat and were well fill'd Their own desire he gave them all 30 They were not from their lusts estrang'd The meat yet in their mouths even then 31 God's wrath the fattest of them slew And smote down Israel's choicest men 32 Yet for all this they sinned still Believed not for his wonders wrought 33 Their days he then consum'd in vain Their years in trouble on them brought 34 But earnestly they sought to him When he them slew and us'd his rod And then they seemed to return
