\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 1}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Blessed
{\EM{is}} the man, that goeth not in the counsel of wicked men; and stood not in the way of sinners, and sat not in the chair of pestilence.


\par }{\PP \VS{2}But his will
{\EM{is}} in the law of the Lord; and he shall bethink in the law of him day and night.


\par }{\PP \VS{3}And he shall be as a tree, which is planted beside the runnings of waters; that shall give his fruit in his time. And his leaf shall not fall down; and all things, whichever he shall do, shall have prosperity.


\par }{\PP \VS{4}Not so wicked men, not so; but
{\EM{they be}} as dust, which the wind casteth away from the face of the earth.


\par }{\PP \VS{5}Therefore wicked men rise not again in doom; neither sinners in the council of just men
{\ADD{[nor the sinful in the council of the rightwise]}}.


\par }{\PP \VS{6}For the Lord knoweth the way of just men
{\ADD{[or the rightwise]}}; and the way of wicked men shall perish.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 2}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Why gnashed with teeth heathen men; and peoples thought vain things?


\par }{\PP \VS{2}The kings of earth stood together; and princes came together against the Lord, and against his Christ.


\par }{\PP \VS{3}Break we the bonds of them; and cast we away the yoke of them from us.


\par }{\PP \VS{4}He that dwelleth in heavens shall scorn them; and the Lord shall bemock them.


\par }{\PP \VS{5}Then he shall speak to them in his wrath; and he shall trouble them in his strong vengeance.


\par }{\PP \VS{6}Soothly I am ordained of him a king upon Zion, his holy hill;


\par }{\PP \VS{7}preaching his commandment. The Lord said to me, Thou art my son; I have begotten thee today.


\par }{\PP \VS{8}Ask thou of me, and I shall give to thee heathen men
{\EM{for}} thine heritage; and
{\EM{for}} thy possession the terms of earth.


\par }{\PP \VS{9}Thou shalt govern them in an iron rod; and thou shalt break them altogether as the vessel of a potter.


\par }{\PP \VS{10}And now, ye kings, understand; ye that deem the earth, be ye learned.


\par }{\PP \VS{11}Serve ye the Lord with dread; and make ye full out joy to him with trembling.


\par }{\PP \VS{12}Take ye lore
{\EM{of chastising}}; lest the Lord be wroth sometime, and ye perish from the just way. When his wrath shall burn out in short time; blessed
{\EM{be}} all they, that trust in him.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 3}{\PP \VerseOne{1}{\EM{The psalm of David, when he fled from the face of Absalom, his son}}. Lord, why be they multiplied that trouble me? many men rise against me.


\par }{\PP \VS{2}Many men say of my soul, None health there is to him in his God.


\par }{\PP \VS{3}But thou, Lord, art mine up-taker; my glory, and enhancing mine head.


\par }{\PP \VS{4}With my voice I cried to the Lord; and he heard me from his holy hill.


\par }{\PP \VS{5}I slept, and rested, and I rose up; for the Lord received me.


\par }{\PP \VS{6}I shall not dread thousands of people encompassing me;


\par }{\PP \VS{7}Lord, arise thou; my God, make me safe. For thou hast smitten all men being adversaries to me without cause; thou hast all-broken the teeth of sinners.


\par }{\PP \VS{8}Health is of the Lord; and thy blessing
{\EM{is}} on thy people.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 4}{\PP \VerseOne{1}{\EM{To the victory, in organs, the psalm of David}}. When I inwardly called, God of my rightwiseness heard me; in tribulation thou hast alarged to me. Have thou mercy on me; and hear thou my prayer.


\par }{\PP \VS{2}Sons of men, how long
{\EM{be ye}} of heavy heart? why love ye vanity, and seek leasing?


\par }{\PP \VS{3}And know ye, that the Lord hath made marvellous his holy man; the Lord shall hear me, when I shall cry to him.


\par }{\PP \VS{4}Be ye wroth, and do not ye sin; and
{\EM{for those evils to}} which ye say in your hearts and in your beds, be ye compunct.


\par }{\PP \VS{5}Sacrifice ye the sacrifice or Offer ye an offering of rightfulness
{\ADD{[or right-wiseness]}}, and hope ye in the Lord;


\par }{\PP \VS{6}many say, Who showed good things to us? Lord, the light of thy cheer is marked upon us;


\par }{\PP \VS{7}thou hast given gladness in mine heart. They be multiplied of the fruit of wheat,
{\EM{and}} of wine; and of their oil.


\par }{\PP \VS{8}In peace in the same thing; I shall sleep, and take rest. For thou, Lord; hast set me singularly or only in hope.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 5}{\PP \VerseOne{1}{\EM{To the overcomer, on the heritages, the psalm of David}}. Lord, perceive thou my words with ears; understand thou my cry.


\par }{\PP \VS{2}My King, and my God; give thou attention to the voice of my prayer. For, Lord, I shall pray to thee;


\par }{\PP \VS{3}hear thou early my voice. Early I shall stand nigh to thee, and I shall see;


\par }{\PP \VS{4}for thou art God not desiring wickedness. Neither an evil-willed man shall dwell beside thee;


\par }{\PP \VS{5}neither unjust
{\ADD{[or unrightwise]}} men shall dwell before thine eyes. Thou hatest all
{\EM{them}} that work wickedness;


\par }{\PP \VS{6}thou shalt lose
{\EM{them}} that speak leasing. The Lord shall hold abomin-able a man-queller, and a guileful man.


\par }{\PP \VS{7}But
{\EM{Lord}}, in the multitude of thy mercy, I shall enter into thine house; I shall worship toward thine holy temple in thy dread.


\par }{\PP \VS{8}Lord, lead thou forth me in thy rightwiseness for mine enemies; dress thou my way in thy sight.


\par }{\PP \VS{9}For truth is not in their mouth; their heart is vain. Their throat is an open sepulchre, they did guilefully with their tongues;


\par }{\PP \VS{10}God, deem thou them. Fall they down from their thoughts; after the multitude of their wickednesses,
{\EM{or un-piousnesses}}, cast thou them down; for, Lord, they have stirred thee to wrath.


\par }{\PP \VS{11}And all that hope in thee, be they glad; they shall make full out joy
{\ADD{[into]}} without end, and thou shalt dwell in them. And all that love thy name shall have glory in thee;


\par }{\PP \VS{12}for thou shalt bless the just
{\ADD{[or right-wise]}} man. Lord, thou hast crowned us, as with a shield of thy good will.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 6}{\PP \VerseOne{1}{\EM{To the overcomer in psalms, the psalm of David, on the eighth}}. Lord, reprove thou not me in thy strong vengeance; neither chastise thou me in thine ire.


\par }{\PP \VS{2}Lord, have thou mercy on me, for I am sick; Lord, make thou me whole, for all my bones be troubled.


\par }{\PP \VS{3}And my soul is troubled greatly; but thou, Lord, how long?


\par }{\PP \VS{4}Lord, be thou converted or turned again, and deliver my soul; make thou me safe, for thy mercy.


\par }{\PP \VS{5}For none there is in death, that is mindful of thee; but in hell who shall acknowledge to thee?


\par }{\PP \VS{6}I travailed in my wailing, I shall wash my bed by each night; I shall moisten,
{\EM{either make wet}}, my bedstraw with my tears.


\par }{\PP \VS{7}Mine eye is troubled of strong vengeance; I waxed eld
{\EM{or old}} among all mine enemies.


\par }{\PP \VS{8}All ye that work wickedness, depart from me; for the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping.


\par }{\PP \VS{9}The Lord hath heard my beseech-ing; the Lord hath received my prayer.


\par }{\PP \VS{10}All mine enemies be ashamed, and be troubled greatly; be they turned altogether, and be they ashamed full swiftly.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 7}{\PP \VerseOne{1}{\EM{For the ignorance of David, which he sang to the Lord, on the words of Ethiopian, the son of Benjamin}}. My Lord God, I have hoped in thee; make thou me safe from all that pursue me, and deliver thou me.


\par }{\PP \VS{2}Lest any time he as a lion ravish my soul; while none there is that again-buyeth, neither that maketh safe.


\par }{\PP \VS{3}My Lord God, if I did this thing, if wickedness is in mine hands,
{\EM{or works}};


\par }{\PP \VS{4}if I yielded to men yielding to me evils, fall I by deserving void from mine enemies;


\par }{\PP \VS{5}mine enemy pursue he my soul, and take he, and defoul my life in earth; and bring my glory into dust.


\par }{\PP \VS{6}Lord, rise thou up in thine ire; and be thou raised
{\EM{up}} in the coasts of mine enemies. And, my Lord God, rise thou up in the commandment, which thou hast commanded;


\par }{\PP \VS{7}and the synagogue of peoples shall encompass thee. And for this go thou again on high;


\par }{\PP \VS{8}the Lord deemeth peoples. Lord, deem thou me by my rightfulness
{\ADD{[or rightwiseness]}}; and by mine innocence on me.


\par }{\PP \VS{9}The wickedness of sinners be ended; and thou, God, seeking the hearts,
{\EM{that is, thoughts}}, and reins,
{\EM{that is, delightings}}, shall dress a just
{\ADD{[or rightwise]}} man.


\par }{\PP \VS{10}My just
{\ADD{[or rightwise]}} help
{\EM{is}} of the Lord; that maketh safe rightful men in heart.


\par }{\PP \VS{11}The Lord
{\EM{is}} a just
{\ADD{[or rightwise]}} judge, strong and patient; whether he is wroth by all days?


\par }{\PP \VS{12}If ye be not converted, he shall flourish his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.


\par }{\PP \VS{13}And therein he hath made ready the vessels of death; he hath fully made his arrows with burning things.


\par }{\PP \VS{14}Lo!
{\EM{the wicked}} hath conceived sorrow; he painfully hath brought forth unrightfulness
{\ADD{[or unrightwiseness]}}, and he hath childed wickedness.


\par }{\PP \VS{15}He opened a pit, and digged it out; and he fell into the ditch which he made.


\par }{\PP \VS{16}His sorrow shall be turned into his head; and his wickedness shall come down into his neck.


\par }{\PP \VS{17}I shall acknowledge to the Lord by his rightfulness
{\ADD{[or rightwiseness]}}; and I shall sing to the name of the highest Lord.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 8}{\PP \VerseOne{1}{\EM{To the overcomer, for}}{\ADD{[the]}}{\EM{pressers}}{\ADD{[or wine presses]}},
{\EM{the psalm of David}}. Lord,
{\EM{thou art}} our Lord; thy name is full wonderful in all
{\ADD{[the]}} earth. For thy great doing is raised up, above heavens.


\par }{\PP \VS{2}Of the mouth of young children, not speaking and sucking milk, thou hast made perfect praising, for thine enemies; that thou destroy the enemy and the avenger.


\par }{\PP \VS{3}For I shall see thine heavens, the works of thy fingers; the moon and the stars, which thou hast founded.


\par }{\PP \VS{4}What is a man,
{\EM{that is mankind}}, that thou art mindful of him; either the son of a virgin
{\ADD{[or the son of man]}}, for thou visitest him?


\par }{\PP \VS{5}Thou hast made him a little less than angels; thou hast crowned him with glory and honour,


\par }{\PP \VS{6}and thou hast ordained him above the works of thine hands. Thou hast made subject all things under his feet;


\par }{\PP \VS{7}all sheep and oxen, furthermore and the beasts of the field;


\par }{\PP \VS{8}the birds of the air, and the fishes of the sea,
{\EM{and all the other creatures}} that pass by the paths of the sea.


\par }{\PP \VS{9}Lord, our Lord; how wonderful is thy name in all
{\ADD{[the]}} earth.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 9}{\PP \VerseOne{1}{\EM{Into the end, for the privates of the son, the psalm of David}}. Lord, I shall acknowledge to thee in all mine heart; I shall tell all thy marvels.


\par }{\PP \VS{2}Thou Highest, I shall be glad, and I shall be fully joyful
{\ADD{[or full out joy]}} in thee; I shall sing to thy name.


\par }{\PP \VS{3}For thou turnest mine enemy aback; they shall be made feeble, and shall perish from thy face.


\par }{\PP \VS{4}For thou hast made my doom, and my cause; thou, that deemest rightfulness
{\ADD{[or rightwiseness]}}, hast set on the throne.


\par }{\PP \VS{5}Thou hast blamed heathen men, and the wicked perished; thou hast done away the name of them into the world, and into the world of world.


\par }{\PP \VS{6}The swords of the enemy have failed into the end; and thou hast destroyed the cities of them. The mind of them hath perished with sound;


\par }{\PP \VS{7}and the Lord dwelleth without end. He hath made ready his throne in doom;


\par }{\PP \VS{8}and he shall deem the world in equity, he shall deem peoples in rightfulness
{\ADD{[or rightwiseness]}}.


\par }{\PP \VS{9}And the Lord is made refuge,
{\EM{either help}}, to a poor man; an helper in covenable times in tribulation.


\par }{\PP \VS{10}And they, that know thy name, have hope in thee; for thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.


\par }{\PP \VS{11}Sing ye
{\ADD{[psalms]}} to the Lord, that
{\EM{dwelleth}} in Zion; tell ye his studies among heathen men.


\par }{\PP \VS{12}God forgetteth not the cry of poor men; for he hath mind
{\EM{of them}}, and he seeketh the blood of them.


\par }{\PP \VS{13}Lord, have thou mercy on me; see thou my meekness of mine enemies. Which enhancest me from the gates of death;


\par }{\PP \VS{14}that I tell all thy praisings in the gates of the daughter of Zion. I shall be fully joyful or joy fully in thine health;


\par }{\PP \VS{15}heathen men be fast-set in the perishing, which they made. In this snare, which they hid, the foot of them is caught.


\par }{\PP \VS{16}The Lord making dooms shall be known; the sinner is taken in the works of his hands.


\par }{\PP \VS{17}Sinners be turned altogether into hell; all folks, that forget God.


\par }{\PP \VS{18}For the forgetting of a poor man shall not be into the end; the patience of poor men shall not perish into the end.


\par }{\PP \VS{19}Lord, rise thou up, a man be not comforted;
{\ADD{[the]}} folks be deemed in thy sight.


\par }{\PP \VS{20}Lord, ordain thou a law-maker upon them; know folks, that they be men.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 10}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Lord, why hast thou gone far away? thou despisest us in covenable times in tribulation.


\par }{\PP \VS{2}While the wicked man waxeth proud, the poor man is burnt; they be taken in the
{\EM{wicked}} counsels, which they thinked.


\par }{\PP \VS{3}For why the sinner is praised in the desires of his soul; and the wicked is blessed. The sinner hath stirred the Lord to wrath;


\par }{\PP \VS{4}after the multitude of his wrath, he shall not seek
{\EM{after God}}. God is not in his sight;


\par }{\PP \VS{5}his ways be defouled in all time. Thy dooms be taken away from his face; he shall be lord of all his enemies.


\par }{\PP \VS{6}For he said in his heart, I shall not be moved, from generation into gener-ation without evil.


\par }{\PP \VS{7}Whose mouth is full of cursing, and of bitterness, and of guile; travail and sorrow
{\EM{is}} under his tongue.


\par }{\PP \VS{8}He sitteth in ambushes with rich men in privates; to slay the innocent man. His eyes behold
{\EM{cruelly}} on the poor man;


\par }{\PP \VS{9}he setteth ambushes in hid place, as a lion in his den. He setteth ambushes, for to ravish a poor man; for to ravish a poor man, while he draweth
{\EM{in}} the poor man. In his snare he shall make meek the poor man;


\par }{\PP \VS{10}he shall bow himself down, and he shall fall, when he hath been lord of poor men.


\par }{\PP \VS{11}For he said in his heart, God hath forgotten; he hath turned away his face, that he see not into the end.


\par }{\PP \VS{12}Lord God, rise thou up, and thine hand be enhanced; forget thou not poor men.


\par }{\PP \VS{13}For what thing stirred the wicked man God to wrath? for he said in his heart,
{\EM{God}} shall not seek.


\par }{\PP \VS{14}Thou seest, for thou beholdest travail and sorrow; that thou take them into thine hands. The poor man is left to thee; thou shalt be an helper to the fatherless and motherless.


\par }{\PP \VS{15}All-break thou the arm of the sinner, and evil-willed; his sin shall be sought, and it shall not be found.


\par }{\PP \VS{16}The Lord shall reign without end, and into the world of world; folks, ye shall perish from the land of him.


\par }{\PP \VS{17}The Lord hath heard the desire of poor men; thine ear hath heard the making ready of their heart.


\par }{\PP \VS{18}To deem for the motherless and meek; that a man presume no more to make himself great on earth.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 11}{\PP \VerseOne{1}{\EM{To the victory}},
{\ADD{[the psalm]}}{\EM{of David}}. I trust in the Lord; how say ye to my soul, Pass thou over into the hill, as a sparrow
{\EM{doeth}}?


\par }{\PP \VS{2}For lo! sinners have bent a bow; they have made ready their arrows in an arrow case; that they shoot in darkness the rightful men in heart.


\par }{\PP \VS{3}For they have destroyed, whom thou hast made perfect; but what did the rightful
{\ADD{[or rightwise]}} man?


\par }{\PP \VS{4}The Lord
{\EM{is}} in his holy temple;
{\EM{he is}} Lord, his seat
{\EM{is}} in heaven. His eyes behold on the poor man; his eyelids ask the sons of men.


\par }{\PP \VS{5}The Lord asketh a just
{\ADD{[or right-wise]}} man, and an unfaithful man; but he, that loveth wickedness, hateth his soul.


\par }{\PP \VS{6}He shall rain snares upon sinners; fire, and brimstone, and the spirit of tempests
{\EM{be}} the part of the cup of them.


\par }{\PP \VS{7}For the Lord
{\EM{is}} just
{\ADD{[or rightwise]}}, and loveth rightfulnesses
{\ADD{[or rightwise-ness]}}; his cheer hath seen evenness,
{\EM{or equity}}.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 12}{\PP \VerseOne{1}{\EM{To the victory, on the eighth, the song of David}}. Lord, make thou me safe, for the holy
{\EM{man}} failed; for truths be made little from the sons of men.


\par }{\PP \VS{2}They spake vain things, each man to his neighbour;
{\EM{and they having}} guileful lips, spake in their heart, and with their heart.


\par }{\PP \VS{3}The Lord destroy all guileful lips; and the great speaking tongue.


\par }{\PP \VS{4}Which said, We shall magnify
{\EM{with}} our tongue, our lips be of us-selves; who
{\EM{else}} is our lord?


\par }{\PP \VS{5}For the wretchedness of needy men, and for the wailing of poor men; now I shall rise up, saith the Lord. I shall set
{\EM{him}} in health; I shall do trustily in him.


\par }{\PP \VS{6}The speeches of the Lord be chaste speeches; silver assayed by fire, proved from the earth, purged sevenfold.


\par }{\PP \VS{7}Thou, Lord, shalt keep us; and thou shalt keep us from this gener-ation without end.


\par }{\PP \VS{8}Wicked men go in compass; by thine highness thou hast multiplied the sons of men.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 13}{\PP \VerseOne{1}{\EM{To the victory}},
{\ADD{[the psalm]}}{\EM{of David}}. Lord, how long forgettest thou me, into the end? how long turnest thou away thy face from me?


\par }{\PP \VS{2}How long shall I set counsel in my soul; sorrow in my heart by day? How long shall mine enemy be raised up on me?


\par }{\PP \VS{3}My Lord God, behold thou, and hear thou me. Lighten thou mine eyes, lest any time I sleep in death;


\par }{\PP \VS{4}lest any time mine enemy say, I had the mastery against him. They, that trouble me, shall have joy, if I shall be stirred;


\par }{\PP \VS{5}but I hoped in thy mercy. Mine heart shall fully have joy in thine health;


\par }{\PP \VS{6}I shall sing to the Lord, that giveth goods to me, and I shall say psalm to the name of the highest Lord.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 14}{\PP \VerseOne{1}{\EM{To the victory}},
{\ADD{[the psalm]}}{\EM{of David}}. The unwise man said in his heart, God is not. They be corrupt, and they be made abominable in their studies; none there is that doeth good, none is till to one\FTNT{*}{{\FR PSALM 14:1 }{\FT{Compare
}}{\XT{Psalm 14:1-7}}{\FT{ to
}}{\XT{Psalm 53:1-6}}{\FT{.}}}.


\par }{\PP \VS{2}The Lord beheld from heaven on the sons of men; that he see, if any is understanding, either seeking God.


\par }{\PP \VS{3}All bowed away, altogether they be made unprofitable; none is that doeth good, none is till to one. The throat of them is an open sepulchre, they did guilefully with their tongues; the venom of snakes
{\EM{is}} under their lips. Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness; their feet
{\EM{be}} swift to shed out blood. Sorrow and cursed-ness
{\EM{is}} in the ways of them, and they knew not the way of peace; the dread of God is not before their eyes.


\par }{\PP \VS{4}Whether all men that work wicked-ness shall not know; that devour my people, as meat of bread? They called not the Lord;


\par }{\PP \VS{5}they trembled there for dread, where was no dread; for the Lord is in a rightful
{\ADD{[or rightwise]}} generation.


\par }{\PP \VS{6}Thou hast shamed the counsel of a poor man; for the Lord is his hope.


\par }{\PP \VS{7}Who shall give from Zion health to Israel? When the Lord hath turned away the captivity of his people; Jacob shall fully be joyful or shall full out joy, and Israel shall be glad.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 15}{\PP \VerseOne{1}{\EM{The psalm of David}}. Lord, who shall dwell in thy tabernacle; either who shall rest in thine holy hill?


\par }{\PP \VS{2}He that entereth without wem; and worketh rightfulness
{\ADD{[or rightwise-ness]}}. He that speaketh truth in his heart;


\par }{\PP \VS{3}which did not guile in his tongue. Nor did evil to his neighbour; and took not reproof against his neighbours.


\par }{\PP \VS{4}A wicked man is brought to nought in his sight; but he glorifieth them that dread the Lord. He that sweareth to his neighbour, and deceiveth
{\EM{him}} not;


\par }{\PP \VS{5}which gave not his money to usury; and took not gifts upon the innocent. He, that doeth these things, shall not be moved without end.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 16}{\PP \VerseOne{1}{\EM{Of the meek and simple, the psalm of David}}. Lord, keep thou me, for I have hoped in thee;


\par }{\PP \VS{2}I said to the Lord, Thou art my God; for thou hast no need of my goods.


\par }{\PP \VS{3}To the saints that be in the land of him; he made wonderful all my wills in them.


\par }{\PP \VS{4}The sicknesses of them be multi-plied; afterward they hasted. I shall not gather together the conventicles,
{\EM{or small covents}}, of them of bloods; and I shall not be mindful of their names by my lips.

{\EM{is}}{\ADD{[the]}} part of mine heritage, and of my passion; thou art, that shall restore mine heritage to me.


\par }{\PP \VS{6}Cords felled to me in full clear things; for mine heritage is full clear to me.

\par }{\PP \VS{8}I saw before
{\EM{me}} ever{\ADD{[more]}} the Lord in my sight; for he is at the right half to me, that I be not moved.


\par }{\PP \VS{9}For this thing mine heart was glad, and my tongue joyed fully; further-more and my flesh shall rest in hope.


\par }{\PP \VS{10}For thou shalt not leave my soul in hell; neither thou shalt give thine holy
{\EM{man}} to see corruption.


\par }{\PP \VS{11}Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt
{\ADD{[full-]}}fill me with gladness with thy cheer; delight-ings
{\EM{be}} in thy right half unto the end.




\par }\PsalmChap{PSALM 17}{\PP \VerseOne{1}{\EM{The prayer of David}}. Lord, hear thou my rightfulness; behold thou my prayer. Perceive thou with ears my prayer; not
{\EM{made}} in guileful lips.


\par }{\PP \VS{2}My doom come forth of thy cheer; thine eyes see they equity.


\par }{\PP \VS{3}Thou hast proved mine heart, and hast visited
{\EM{me}} in
{\ADD{[the]}} night; thou hast examined,
{\EM{or assayed}}, me by fire, and wickedness is not found in me.


\par }{\PP \VS{4}That my mouth speak not
{\EM{of}} the works of men; for the words of thy lips I have kept hard ways.


\par }{\PP \VS{5}Make thou perfect my goings in thy paths; that my steps be not moved.


\par }{\PP \VS{6}I cried, for thou, God, heardest me; bow down thy ear to me, and hear thou my words.


\par }{\PP \VS{7}Make wonderful thy mercies; that makest safe them that hope in thee.


\par }{\PP \VS{8}Keep thou me as the apple of thine eye;
{\EM{and}} from them that against-stand thy right hand. Cover thou me under the shadow of thy wings;


\par }{\PP \VS{9}from the face of unpious men, that have tormented me. Mine enemies have encompassed my soul;


\par }{\PP \VS{10}they have closed together their fatness; the mouth of them spake pride.


\par }{\PP \VS{11}They casted me forth, and have en-compassed me now; they ordained to bow down their eyes into
{\ADD{[the]}} earth.


\par }{\PP \VS{12}They, as a lion made ready to
{\EM{his}} prey, have taken me; and as the whelp of a lion dwelling in hid places.

{\EM{deliver thou}} thy sword;


\par }{\PP \VS{14}from the enemies of thine hand. Lord, part thou them from a few men of the land in the life of them; their womb is
{\ADD{[full-]}}filled of thine hid things. They be
{\ADD{[full-]}}filled with sons; and they left their remnants,
{\EM{either residue}}, to their little children.


\par }{\PP \VS{15}But I in rightfulness
{\ADD{[or rightwise-ness]}} shall appear to thy sight; I shall be
{\ADD{[ful]}} filled, when thy glory shall appear.

\par }{\PP \VS{5}The sorrows of hell encompassed me; the snares of death before-occupied me.


\par }{\PP \VS{6}In my tribulation I inwardly called the Lord; and I cried to my God. And he heard my voice from his holy temple; and my cry in his sight entered into his ears.


\par }{\PP \VS{7}The earth was moved together, and trembled greatly; the foundaments of hills were troubled altogether, and moved together, for he was wroth to them.


\par }{\PP \VS{8}Smoke went up in the ire
