Psalms 118
1 O confesse you [it] vnto God, for he is gratious: and his mercie endureth for euer.2 Let Israel nowe confesse: that his mercie endureth for euer.3 Let the house of Aaron nowe confesse: that his mercie endureth for euer.4 Let them nowe that feare God: confesse that his mercie endureth for euer.5 I called vpon the Lorde beyng in distresse: and the Lorde hath hearde me at large.6 God is with me: I wyll not feare what man can do vnto me.7 God is with me amongst them that ayde me: [therfore] I shall see [my desire] vpon them that hate me.8 It is better to trust in God: then to put any confidence in man.9 It is better to trust in God: then to put any confidence in princes.10 All nations compassed me rounde about: [but I trusted] in the name of God that I shoulde destroy them.11 They kept me in on euery syde, they kept me in I say on euery syde: [but I trusted] in ye name of God that I shoulde destroy them.12 They swarmed about me lyke bees, and they be extinguished as the fire [made] of thornes: [for I trusted] in the name of God that I should destroy the.13 Thou hast thrust sore at me, that I might fall: but God dyd ayde me14 The Lorde is my strength and my song: and he is become my saluation.15 The voyce of a ioyfull noyse & of saluation is in the dwellynges of the ryghteous: [saying] the ryght hande of God bryngeth mightie thynges to passe.16 The ryght hande of God is on hygh: the right hande of God bryngeth mightie thynges to passe.17 I shall not [as yet] dye, but I shal liue: and I wyll declare the workes of the Lorde.18 The Lorde hath greatly chastened me: but he hath not geuen me ouer vnto death.
19 Open me the gates of ryghteousnesse, I wyll enter in by them: that I may geue thankes vnto the Lorde.20 This is the gate of God: the ryghteous shall enter in by it.21 I wyll thanke thee for that thou hast heard me: and art become my saluation.22 The same stone which the buylders refused: is become the head stone of the corner.23 This was the doyng of God: and it is marueylous in our eyes.24 This is the day whiche God hath made: we wyll reioyce and be glad in it.25 O God I pray thee nowe saue [vs]: O God I pray thee nowe geue [vs] prosperous successe.26 Blessed be he that commeth in the name of God: we do blesse you out of the house of God.27 It is the Lord God who hath geuen vs lyght: bynde a sacrifice with cordes vnto the hornes of the aulter.28 Thou art my Lorde, and I wyll confesse it vnto thee: thou art my Lorde and I wyll magnifie thee.29 O confesse you [it] vnto God, for he is gratious: and his mercie endureth for euer.
