¹ Declare you ioyfull vnto the Lorde all [ye of] the earth: ² sing psalmes vnto the glory of his name, geue glory to his maiestie.³ 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.⁴ For all [they of] the worlde shall worship thee, and sing psalmes vnto thee: they shall sing psalmes vnto thy holy name. Selah.⁵ Come hither and beholde the workes of the Lorde: howe wonderfull he is in his doing towarde the chyldren of men.⁶ He turneth the sea into drye lande, so that they went thorowe the water on foote: there dyd we reioyce in him.⁷ He ruleth with his power for euer, his eyes beholdeth the gentiles: such as be rebels shal not come to promotion. Selah.

⁸ O ye people blesse your Lorde: and make the voyce of his praise to be heard.⁹ Who preserueth our soule in life: and suffereth not our feete to slip.¹⁰ For thou O Lord hast proued vs: thou hast tryed vs, like as siluer is tryed.¹¹ Thou broughtest vs into the snare: and layde trouble vpon our loynes.¹² Thou sufferedst men to ride ouer our heades: we went through fire and water, and [yet] thou broughtest vs out into a pleasaunt [place.]

¹³ I wyll go into thy house with burnt offeringes: and I wyll pay thee my vowes ¹⁴ whiche I promised with my lippes, and spake with my mouth when I was in trouble.¹⁵ I wyll offer vnto thee fat burnt sacrifices, with the incense of rammes: I will offer bullockes and goates. Selah.¹⁶ O come hither, & hearken: and I wil tell all you that feare the Lorde, what he hath done for my soule.¹⁷ I called vnto hym with my mouth: and I exalted him with my tongue.¹⁸ If I had inclined vnto wickednes in my heart, the Lorde woulde not haue hearde me: ¹⁹ but the Lorde hath hearde me, & considered the voyce of my prayer.²⁰ Blessed be the Lorde which hath not reiected my prayer: nor turned his mercye from me.
