Selah. 4 Thou dydst kepe the watche of mine eies: I was amased & coulde not speake. 5 I dyd thynke vpon the dayes past: and on the yeres of the olde worlde. 6 I called to remembraunce my psalme, song on the musicall instrument in the nyght tyme: I communed with myne owne heart, & searched out my spirites. 7 What, wyll the Lorde forsake me for euer? wyll he be no more intreated to be fauourable? 8 Is his mercie cleane gone for euer? and is his promise made from one generation to another, come vtterly to an ende. 9 Hath God forgotten to be gratious? and will he shut vp his louing kindnesse in displeasure?
