What profit is there in my blood, when I go | down-to the pit ? Shall the dust praise thee? shall | it—de | clare-thy truth? Hear, O Lord, and have | mercy-up | on me: Lord be thou-my helper. Thou hast turned for me my mourning | in-to ❘ dancing: Thou hast put off my sackcloth, and | girded me with | gladness. To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not-be silent. I O Lord my God, I will give | thanks-unto | thee-forever. 10. BLESSED is he whose transgression | is-for | given, Whose si-n | i-s | covered. Blessed is the man unto whom the Lord imputeth | not-in | iquity, And in whose spirit-there | is-no | guile. When | I-kept | silence, My bones waxed old through my roaring | all the-day long. For day and night thy hand was | heavy-up | on me: My moisture is turned | into-the | droughtof summer. I acknowledged my | sin-unto | thee, And thou forgavest the in | iqui-ty | of—my | sin. For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest-be | found: Surely in the floods of great waters they | shall not-come | nigh-unto | him. Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve | me-from trouble; Thou shalt compass me about with | so-ngs | of deliverance. I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou-shalt | go; I will guide thee | with-mine | eye. Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no-understanding; Whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come-near | un—to | thee. Many sorrows shall be to-the | wicked: But he that trusteth in the Lord, mercy shall | com-pass him- about. Be glad in the Lord, and re | joice,―ye | righteous: And shout for joy, all | ye--that are | upright— in heart. B 11. REJOICE in the Lord, | O-ye | righteous; For praise is come-ly | for-the upright. Praise the Lord with harp : Sing unto him with the psaltery and an | instrument | often | strings. Sing unto him a-new | song; Play | skilful-ly | with a-loud noise. He loveth righteousness-and | judgment: By the word of the Lord were the | hea-vens | made; And all the host of them | by-the | breath of— his mouth. He gathereth the waters of the sea together | as-an | heap: He layeth up-the depth-in | storehouses. Let all the earth | fear-the | Lord; Let all the inhabitants of the world | stand-in | awe of him. For he spake, and | it-was | done; He commanded, and it-stood | fast. The Lord bringeth the counsel of the heathento nought: He maketh the devices of the | people-of | none-effect. The counsel of the Lord | standeth-for | ever, The thoughts of his heart-to| all-gener ations. Blessed is the nation whose | God-is the | Lord; And the people whom he hath chosen forhis own-in | heritance. The Lord looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of | men. From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the in habi-tants | of-the earth. like; He fashioneth their hearts-a He con | sider-eth | all—their | works. There is no king saved by the multitude | of— an | host: A mighty man is not deliver—ed | by— much strength. An horse is a vain | thing-for safety: Neither shall he deliver any-by | his great | strength. Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon | themthat fear him, Upon them-that | hope in-his | mercy; Our soul waiteth | for-the | Lord; name. Let thy mercy, O | Lord,—be up | on us, I WILL bless the 12. Lord-at all times: His praise shall con | tin-ually | be in-my | mouth. My soul shall make her | boast-in the Lord: The humble shall | hear—thereof, | and—be | glad. O magnify the Lord-with | me, And let us ex | alt-his | name-together. They looked unto him, | and-were | lightened: The angel of the Lord encampeth round about | An | d-delivereth them. O taste and see that the | Lord-is | good: Blessed is the man-that | trusteth-in | him. O fear the Lord, | ye-his | saints : For there is no want-to | them-that | fear him. The young lions do lack, and | suf-fer | hunger: But they that seek the Lord | shall not-want | any good thing. Come, ye children, hearken | un-to | me: And loveth many | days,-that | he may-see | d? |
