- 2 Sam 22:1-9 : 1 And Dauid spake the wordes of this song vnto the Lorde, what time the Lorde had delyuered him out of the hand of al his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul. 2 And he saide: The Lorde is my rocke, and my castell, and my delyuerer. 3 God is my strength, in him will I trust: he is my shielde, and the horne of my saluation, my hie towre, and my refuge, my sauiour, thou hast saued me from wrong. 4 I will call on the Lorde which is prayse worthy: and so shall I be saued from myne enemies. 5 For the panges of death closed me about: the fludes of Belial put me in feare. 6 The sorowes of hell compassed me about, the snares of death ouertoke me. 7 In my tribulation did I call vppon the Lorde, and crye to my God: and he dyd heare my voyce out of his temple, and my crye did enter into his eares. 8 The earth trembled and quaked: the foundations of heauen moued & shooke when he was angry. 9 Smoke went out at his nosthryls, & consuming fyre out of his mouth: coles were kindled thereat. 10 And he bowed heauen & came downe: and there was darkenesse vnder his feete. 11 And he rode vpon Cherub and did flee: he was seene vppon the winges of the winde. 12 He made darknes a tabernacle rounde about him: with waters gathered together in thicke cloudes. 13 Through the brightnes of his presence were the coles of fyre kindled. 14 The Lorde thundred from heauen: & he that is most hie, put out his voyce. 15 He shot arrowes, and scattered them: to wit lyghtning, & ouerthrew them. 16 The chanels of the sea appeared: and the foundatios of the world were seene, by the reason of ye rebuking of the Lord, and through the blasting of the breath of his nosthryls. 17 He sent from aboue and toke me: he drew me out of many waters. 18 He deliuered me from my mightie enemie, and from them that hated me: for they were to strong for me. 19 When they had preuented me in the daye of my calamitie: the Lorde stayed me vp. 20 For he brought me out into roomth: he deliuered me, because he had a fauour vnto me. 21 The Lorde rewarded me according to my righteousnesse: accordyng to the purenes of my hands he recompensed me. 22 For I haue kept the wayes of ye Lord: and did not wickedly agaynst my God. 23 For all his lawes were in my sight: & his statutes, I did not depart therefro. 24 In his sight also haue I ben vpright: and haue kept me from myne owne iniquitie. 25 And the Lorde did to me againe according to my righteousnesse: euen after my purenes in his eye sight. 26 With the godly thou shalt be godlie: and with the man that is vpright, thou shalt be vpright. 27 With the pure thou shalt be pure: and with the froward thou wilt shewe thy selfe froward. 28 And the poore people thou wilt saue: but thyne eyes are vpon the proude, to bring them downe. 29 For thou art my lyght, O Lorde: and the Lorde shall light my darkenesse. 30 For by thee I shall breake through an hoast of men: and by my God wyll I spring ouer a wall. 31 God is vncorrupt in his way, the word of the Lord is tryed in the fyre: he is a shielde to all them that trust in him. 32 For who is a God saue the Lord? and who is mightie saue our God? 33 God strengthneth me in battaile: & ryddeth the way cleare before me. 34 He maketh my feete lyke hyndes feete: and setteth me vpon my hie places. 35 He teacheth my handes to fight: that euen a bowe of steele is broken with myne armes. 36 Thou hast geuen me the shielde of thy saluation: and with thy louing mekenesse thou doest multiplie me. 37 Thou hast enlarged my steps vnder me: and my legges shall not faile me. 38 I haue folowed vpon myne enemies, and destroyed them: and turned not againe, vntill I had consumed them. 39 I haue wasted them, and wounded them, that they shal not be able to aryse: yea, they shall fall vnder my feete. 40 Thou hast gyrded me about with might to battayle: and them that rose against me, hast thou subdued vnder me. 41 And thou hast geuen me the neckes of myne enemies: that I might destroye them that hate me. 42 They loked about, but there was none to saue them: euen vnto the Lorde, but he heard them not. 43 Then did I beate them as small as the dust of the earth: I did stampe them as the clay of the streate, and did spreade them abrode. 44 Thou also hast deliuered me from the discention of my people, thou hast kept me to be an head ouer nations: the people which I knew not, do serue me. 45 Straunge childre dissemble with me: at the hearing of the eare, they obey me. 46 Straunge children wil shrinke away: and they shall be smytten with feare in their priuie chamber. 47 Let the Lord lyue, and blessed be my strength: magnified be God euen the force of my saluation. 48 It is God that geueth me power to reuenge me: & bringeth downe the people vnder me. 49 He deliuereth me from myne enemies, thou also hast lyft me on hie from them that rose against me: thou hast delyuered me from the wicked man. 50 And therefore I wyll prayse thee O Lorde among the nations: and wyll sing vnto thy name. 51 He is the towre of saluation for his king, and dealeth mercyfully with his annoynted: euen with Dauid, and with his seede for euermore.

Who is like thee, so glorious in holynesse, fearefull in prayses, shewyng wonders? 12 Thou stretchedst out thy right hande, the earth swalowed them. 13 Thou in thy mercie hast caryed this people which thou hast redeemed, and hast brought them in thy strength vnto thy holy habitation. 14 The nations shal heare, & be afraide, sorowe shall come vpon Palestina. 15 Then the dukes of the Edomites shalbe amazed, and the myghtyest of the Moabites tremblyng shall come vpon them, al the inhabiters of Chanaan shal waxe faynt hearted. 16 Feare & dreade shal fall vpon them, in the greatnesse of thine arme they shalbe as styll as a stone, tyll thy people passe through, O Lorde, whyle this people passe through which thou hast gotten. 17 Thou shalt bryng them in, and plant them in the mountayne of thine inheritaunce, the place Lord which thou hast made for to dwell in, the sanctuarie, O Lord, which thy handes haue prepared 18 The Lorde shall raigne for euer and euer. 19 For Pharao on horsebacke went in with his charettes and horsemen into the sea, and the Lorde brought the waters of the sea vpon them: But the chyldren of Israel went on drye land in the middest of the sea. 20 And Miriam a prophetisse, the sister of Aaron, toke a tymbrell in her hande, and all the women came out after her with tymbrelles and daunces. 21 And Miriam sang before them: Sing ye vnto the Lorde, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he ouerthrowen in the sea.
- Judg 5:1-9 : 1 Then Debora and Barak the sonne of Abinoam sange the same day, saying: 2 Prayse ye the Lord, for the auengyng of Israel, and for the people that became so willing. 3 Heare O ye kinges, hearken O ye princes: I, euen I will syng vnto the Lord, I will prayse the Lord God of Israel. 4 Lorde, whan thou wentest out of Seir, whan thou departedst out of the fielde of Edom, the earth trembled, and the heauens rayned, the cloudes also dropped water: 5 The mountaynes melted before the Lord, euen as dyd Sinai before ye Lord God of Israel. 6 In the dayes of Samgar the sonne of Anath, in the dayes of Iael, the hye wayes were vnoccupied, and the trauelers walked thorowe bye wayes. 7 The inhabitants of the townes were gone, they were gone in Israel, vntyll I Debora came vp, which came vp a mother in Israel. 8 They chose new goddes, and then had they the enemie in the gates: was there a shielde or speare seene among fourtie thousande of Israel? 9 My heart loueth the gouerners of Israel, and them that are willyng among the people: O prayse ye the Lord. 10 Speake ye that ryde on fayre asses, ye that dwell by Middin, and that walke by the wayes. 11 For the noyse of the archers among the drawers of water ceassed, there shall they speake of the righteousnes of the Lorde, his righteousnesse in his vnfensed townes in Israel: Then shal the people of the Lorde go downe to the gates. 12 Up Debora vp, get thee vp, and sing a song: Arise Barac, and leade thy captiuitie captiue, thou sonne of Abinoam. 13 Then shall they that remayne, haue dominion of the proudest of the people: The Lord hath geuen me dominion ouer the mightie. 14 Out of Ephraim was there a roote of them agaynst Amelek, and after thee Beniamin among thy people: Out of Machir came rulers, and out of Zabulon they that handell the penne of the writer. 15 And of Isachar there were princes with Debora, and Isachar, and also Barak, he was sent on foote into the valley: for the diuisions of Ruben were great thoughtes of heart. 16 Why abodest thou among the sheepe foldes, to heare the bleatinges of the flockes? for the diuisions of Ruben, were great thoughtes of heart. 17 Gilead also abode beyonde Iordane: and why doth Dan remayne in shyppes? Aser cotinued on the sea shore, and taried in his decayed places. 18 But the people of Zabulon haue ieoparde their lyues euen vnto the death, lyke as dyd Nephthalim in the hye places of the fielde. 19 The kynges came and fought, then fought ye kynges of Chanaan in Thanach by the waters of Megiddo, and wan no money. 20 They fought from heauen, euen the starres in their courses fought agaynst Sisara. 21 The ryuer of Kison swept them away, that auncient ryuer the ryuer Kison: O my soule, thou hast marched valiauntly. 22 Then were the horse hoofes smitten asunder by the meanes of the praunsings that their mightie men made. 23 Curse ye the citie of Meros (sayd the angel of the Lord) curse the inhabitants therof: because they came not to helpe the Lord, to helpe the Lord against the mightie. 24 Iael the wyfe of Haber the Kenite, shalbe blessed aboue other women, blessed shall she be aboue other women in the tent. 25 He asked water, and she gaue him mylke, she brought foorth butter in a lordly dysshe. 26 She put her hande to the nayle, & her ryght hande to the smythes hammer: with the hammer smote she Sisara, & smote his head, wounded him, and pearsed his temples. 27 He bowed him downe at her feete, he fell downe, and lay styll: At her feete he bowed him selfe, & fell. And whe he had sunke downe, he lay there destroyed. 28 The mother of Sisara loked out at a wyndowe, and cryed thorowe the lattesse: Why is his charret so long a commyng? Why tary the wheeles of his charettes? 29 Al the wyse ladyes aunswered her, yea and her owne wordes aunswered her selfe. 30 Surely they haue found, they deuide the spoyles, euery man hath a damsell or two: Sisara hath a pray of diuers couloured garmentes, euen a pray of rayment dyed with sundry colours, and that are made of nedle worke: rayment of diuers colours and of nedle worke on both sydes, which is meete for him that is chiefe in distributing of ye spoyles. 31 So perishe all thine enemies, O Lord: But they that loue him, let them be as ye sunne whan he ryseth in his myght. And the lande had rest fourtie yeres.
