1

God is my lyght and saluation, whom then shall I feare? God is the strength of my life, of whom then shall I be afraide?

2

When the malitious approched neare vnto me for to eate vp my fleshe: mine enemies and foes stumbled and fell.

3

Though an hoast of men were layde in campe against me, yet shall not mine heart be afraide: and though there rose vp warre against me, yet I wyll put my trust in this.

4

I haue desired one thyng of God, whiche once agayne I wyll earnestly require: euen that I may dwell in the house of God all the dayes of my life, to beholde the beautifulnes of God, and to seeke it in his temple.

5

For in the time of aduersitie he shall hide me in his tabernacle: yea in the secrete place of his pauilion he shall hide me, and set me vp vpon a rocke of stone.

6

And nowe he shall lift vp my head aboue mine enemies rounde about me: therfore I wyll offer in his tabernacle a sacrifice of great ioy, I wyll sing and prayse God with psalmes.

7

Hearken vnto my voyce O god, when I crye vnto thee: haue mercy vpon me and heare me.

8

My heart hath sayde vnto thee according to this thy commaundement seeke ye my face: thy face O God wyll I seeke.

9

O hide not thou thy face from me, nor cast thy seruaunt away in a displeasure: thou hast ben my succour, leaue me not, neither forsake me O Lorde of my saluation.

10

For my father and mother forsoke me: and God did take me vp.

11

Teache me thy way O God: and leade me in a right path, because of mine enemies.

12

Deliuer me not into mine aduersaries handes: for there are false witnesses rysen vp against me, and such as speake wrong.

13

If I had not beleued veryly to see the goodnes of God in the lande of the liuing: their spite had kylled me.

14

Attende thou therfore vpon God, be of a good courage, and he will comfort thine heart: I say attende thou vpon God.
