For thou, O God, hast | prov-ed | us: Thou laidst af | fliction-up | on-our | loins. Thou hast caused men to ride | over-our | heads: We went through | fire-and | through | water, But thou | broughtest-us | out In to-a | wealth—y | place. I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: will pay thee-my | vows, Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken,-when | I was-in | trouble. I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense of rams: I will offer | bullocks-with goats. Come and hear, all ye that-fear | God, And I will declare what he hath done formy soul. I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled | with-my | tongue. If I regard iniquity in my heart, the | Lo-rd | will not hear me : But verily God-hath | heard me ; He hath attended to the | voi-ce | of-my | prayer, Blessed be- | God, Which hath not turned away my prayer,nor his mer-cy | from me. 27. IN Thee, O Lord, do I | put-my | trust; Incline thine ear-unto | me,-and | save me. Be thou my strong-habi | tation, Whereunto I may-con | tinually-re | sort: Thou hast given com | mandment-to | save me; For thou art my | ro-ck | and-my | fortress. Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand ofthe wicked, Out of the hand of the unrighteous—and | cru—el | man. For thou art my hope, | O-Lord | God: By thee have I been holden up | from-the | womb: Thou art he that took me out of-my | mother's bowels. My praise shall be continually—of | thee : I am as a wonder unto many: but | thou artmy strong refuge. Let my mouth be filled with-thy | praise, For mine enemies | speak-a | gainst me, Saying, God-hath for | saken him soul-take | ; Persecute and take him, for there is | noneto deliver | him. O God, be not-far from me: O my God, make | haste—for my | help. Let them be confounded and consumed that are adversaries to-my soul; Let them be covered with reproach and dis | honour-that | seek-my | hurt. But I will | hope-con | tinually, And will yet praise-thee | more and more. My mouth shall show forth thy righteousness and thy salvation | all-the | day; For I know not-the | numbers-there | of. I will go in the strength of the | Lo-rd | God; 1 I will make mention of thy righteousness even-of thi-ne | only. O God, thou hast taught me | from-my | youth: And hitherto have I declared-thy drous works. won Now also, when I am | old and-grey | headed, O God-for sake-me | not; Until I have showed thy strength unto | thisgeneration, And thy power to every one-that is-to | come. Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done-great | things: O God, who is | like-unto | thee? Thou, which hast showed me great and sore troubles, shall quicken | me-again, And shalt bring me up again-from the depths of the earth. Thou shalt in crease-my | greatness, Unto thee will I sing with the harp, O thou | My lips shall greatly rejoice when I | singunto thee; And my soul-which | thou hast-re | deemed. My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness | all the-day | long: For they are confounded, for they are brought unto shame-that | seek-my | hurt. 28. GIVE the king thy | judgments,-O | God, son. He shall judge thy | people-with | righteous ness, And-thy | poor-with | judgment. The mountains shall bring peace to the people, And the little hills,-by | righteousness. He shall judge the poor of the people, he shall save the children of the | needy, And shall break in | pie-ces | the-op | pressor. They shall fear thee as long as the sun and | moon-en | dure, Through out-all | ge-ne | rations. He shall come down like rain upon the | mo-wn grass : As showers-that water-the earth. 1 In his days shall the | right-eous | flourish ; And abundance of peace so long as the | moon-en dureth. He shall have dominion also from | sea-to | sea, And from the river unto-the ends of the earth. They that dwell in the wilderness shall | bow— before him; And his enemies-shall | lick-the | dust. The kings of Tarshish, and of the | isles shall— bring presents : The kings of Sheba and | Seba-shall | of-fer | gifts. Yea, all kings shall fall | down-be | fore him ; All | na |tions-shall serve him. For he shall deliver the needy | when-he | crieth; The poor also, and | him-that | hath—no | helper. |
