The Lord is on my side; I will not fear:

What can man do unto me?

It is better to trust in the Lord
Than to put confidence in man.
It is better to trust in the Lord
Than to put confidence in princes.

The Lord is my strength and

song;

And he is become my salvation.

The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the right

eous:

The right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly.

The right hand of the Lord is exalted:

The right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly.

I shall not die, but live,

And declare the works of the Lord. The Lord hath chastened me sore; But he hath not given me over unto death.

Open to me the gates of righteous

ness:

I will enter into them, I will praise
the Lord.

This is the gate of the Lord;
The righteous shall enter into it.

I will praise thee; for thou hast
heard me,

And art become my salvation. The stone which the builders rejected

Is become the head of the corner.
This is the Lord's doing;
It is marvelous in our eyes.
This is the day which the Lord hath
made;

We will rejoice and be glad in it.

Save now, we beseech thee, O Lord:

O Lord, we beseech thee, send now prosperity.

Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the Lord:

We have blessed you out of the house of the Lord.

Thou art my God, and I will praise thee:

Thou art my God, I will exalt thee.

Oh give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good;

For his mercy endureth forever.
Evening

Lord, remember for David
All his affliction;

How he sware unto the Lord,
And vowed unto the Mighty One
of Jacob:

Surely I will not come into the
tabernacle of my house,
Nor go up into my bed;

I will not give sleep to mine eyes,
Or slumber to mine eyelids;

Until I find out a place for the
Lord,

A habitation for the Mighty One of Jacob.

Lo, we heard of it in Ephrathah:
We found it in the field of the
wood.

We will go into his tabernacles;
We will worship at his footstool.

Arise, O Lord, into thy resting
place;

Thou, and the ark of thy strength. Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness;

And let thy saints shout for joy.

For thy servant David's sake Turn not away the face of thine anointed.

The Lord hath sworn unto David in truth;

He will not turn from it:

Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.

If thy children will keep my

covenant

And my testimony that I shall teach them,

Their children also shall sit upon thy throne for evermore.

For the Lord hath chosen Zion; He hath desired it for his habitation.

This is my resting place forever: Here will I dwell; for I have desired it.

I will abundantly bless her provision:

I will satisfy her poor with bread. Her priests also will I clothe with salvation;

And her saints shall shout aloud for joy.

There will I make the horn of David to bud:

Praise ye the Lord; for the Lord is good:

Sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.

For the Lord hath chosen Jacob unto himself,

And Israel for his own possession. For I know that the Lord is great, And that our Lord is above all gods.

Whatsoever the Lord pleased, that hath he done,

In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps;

Who causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; Who maketh lightnings for the rain;

Who bringeth forth the wind out of his treasuries;

Who smote the firstborn of Egypt,
Both of man and beast;

Who sent signs and wonders into
the midst of thee, O Egypt,
Upon Pharaoh, and upon all his
servants;

Who smote many nations,
And slew mighty kings,

I have ordained a lamp for mine Sihon king of the Amorites,

anointed.

Forty-seventh Sunday
Morning

Praise ye the Lord.
Praise ye the name of the Lord;
Praise him, O ye servants of the
Lord,

Ye that stand in the house of the
Lord,

In the courts of the house of our
God.

And Og king of Bashan,
And all the kingdoms of Canaan,

And gave their land for a heritage, A heritage unto Israel his people. Thy name, O Lord, endureth for

[blocks in formation]

Hear my prayer, O Lord; give ear to my supplications:

In thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness.

And enter not into judgment with thy servant;

For in thy sight shall no man living be justified.

For the enemy hath persecuted my soul;

He hath smitten my life down to the ground:

He hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.

Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me;

My heart within me is desolate.

[blocks in formation]

My soul thirsteth after thee, as a weary land.

Make haste to answer me, O Lord; my spirit faileth:

Hide not thy face from me, Lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.

Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning;

For in thee do I trust:

Cause me to know the way wherein I should walk;

For I lift up my soul unto thee.

Deliver me, O Lord, from mine

enemies:

I flee unto thee to hide me.
Teach me to do thy will;
For thou art my God:
Thy Spirit is good;

Lead me in the land of uprightness. Quicken me, O Lord, for thy name's sake:

In thy righteousness bring my soul out of trouble.

[blocks in formation]

For there is not a word in my tongue,

But, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether.

Thou hast beset me behind and before,

And laid thine hand upon me.

Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;

It is high, I cannot attain unto it. Whither shall I go from thy Spirit? Or whither shall I flee from thy presence?

If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there;

If I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.

If I take the wings of the morning, And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;

Even there shall thy hand lead me, And thy right hand shall hold me. If I say, Surely the darkness shall

Blessed be the Lord my strength, Which teacheth my hands to war, And my fingers to fight:

My goodness, and my fortress, My high tower, and my deliverer; My shield, and he in whom I take refuge;

Who subdueth my people under me.

Lord, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him? Or the son of man, that thou makest account of him? Man is like to vanity:

His days are as a shadow that passeth away.

Bow thy heavens, O Lord, and come down:

Touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.

Cast forth lightning, and scatter them;

Send out thine arrows, and discomfit them.

Stretch forth thy hand from above; Rescue me, and deliver me out of great waters,

Out of the hand of aliens;
Whose mouth speaketh vanity,
And whose right hand is a right
hand of falsehood.

I will sing a new song unto thee,
O God:

Upon a psaltery of ten strings will
I sing praises unto thee.

Thou art he that giveth salvation unto kings;

Who delivereth David his servant from the hurtful sword.

Rescue me, and deliver me out of the hand of aliens,

Whose mouth speaketh vanity, And whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.

When our sons shall be as plants grown up in their youth,

And our daughters as corner stones hewn after the fashion of a palace;

When our garners are full, af-
fording all manner of store,
And our sheep bring forth thou-
sands and ten thousands in our
fields;

When our oxen are well laden; When there is no breaking in, and no going forth,

And no outcry in our streets: Happy is the people that is in such

a case;

Yea, happy is the people whose God is the Lord.

Forty-ninth Sunday
Morning

I will extol thee, my God, O King; And I will bless thy name forever and ever.

Every day will I bless thee;
And I will praise thy name for-
ever and ever.

Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised;

And his greatness is unsearchable. One generation shall praise thy works to another,

And shall declare thy mighty acts.

Of the glorious majesty of thine honor,

And of thy wondrous works, will I meditate.

And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts;

And I will declare thy greatness.

They shall utter the memory of thy great goodness,

And shall sing of thy righteous

ness.

The Lord is gracious, and full of compassion;

Slow to anger, and of great mercy. The Lord is good to all;

And his tender mercies are over all his works.

All thy works shall praise thee, O
Lord;

And thy saints shall bless thee. They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom,

And talk of thy power;

To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts,

And the glorious majesty of his kingdom.

Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,

And thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.

The Lord upholdeth all that fall, And raiseth up all those that be bowed down.
