To the chiefe musition, a song (whiche is) a psalme. Declare you ioyfull vnto the Lorde all ye of the earth:

sing psalmes vnto the glory of his name, geue glory to his maiestie.

Say vnto the Lorde, oh howe wonderfull art thou in thy workes: thorow the greatnes of thy power thyne enemies shalbe founde liers vnto thee.

For all they of the worlde shall worship thee, and sing psalmes vnto thee: they shall sing psalmes vnto thy holy name. Selah.

Come hither and beholde the workes of the Lorde: howe wonderfull he is in his doing towarde the chyldren of men.

He turneth the sea into drye lande, so that they went thorowe the water on foote: there dyd we reioyce in him.

He ruleth with his power for euer, his eyes beholdeth the gentiles: such as be rebels shal not come to promotion. Selah.

O ye people blesse your Lorde: and make the voyce of his praise to be heard.

Who preserueth our soule in life: and suffereth not our feete to slip.

For thou O Lord hast proued vs: thou hast tryed vs, like as siluer is tryed.

Thou broughtest vs into the snare: and layde trouble vpon our loynes.

Thou sufferedst men to ride ouer our heades: we went through fire and water, and yet thou broughtest vs out into a pleasaunt place.

I wyll go into thy house with burnt offeringes: and I wyll pay thee my vowes

whiche I promised with my lippes, and spake with my mouth when I was in trouble.

I wyll offer vnto thee fat burnt sacrifices, with the incense of rammes: I will offer bullockes and goates. Selah.

O come hither, & hearken: and I wil tell all you that feare the Lorde, what he hath done for my soule.

I called vnto hym with my mouth: and I exalted him with my tongue.

If I had inclined vnto wickednes in my heart, the Lorde woulde not haue hearde me:

but the Lorde hath hearde me, & considered the voyce of my prayer.

Blessed be the Lorde which hath not reiected my prayer: nor turned his mercye from me.
