Chapter 90
A prayer of *Moses the man of God
Lord, thou art our refuge from one generations to another.
Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever the earth and
the world were made, thou art God from everlasting and world without
end.
Thou turnest man to destruction, Again, thou sayest: come
again ye children of men. For a thousand years in thy sight are but
as yesterday that has past, and like as it were a night watch.
As soon as thou scatterest them, they are even as asleep, and
fade away suddenly like the grass. In the morning it is green
groweth up, but in the evening it is cut down and withereth.
For we consume away in thy displeasure, and are afraid at thy
wrathful indignation.
Thou settest our misdeeds before thee, and our secret sins in
the light of thy countenance. For when thou art angry, all our days
are gone, we bring our years to an end, as it were a tale that is
told.
The days of our age are threescore years and ten: and though
men be so strong that they come to fourscore years, yet is their
strength then but labor and sorrow: so soon passeth it away and we
are gone.
But who regardeth the power of thy wrath, thy fearful and
terrible displeasure.
O' teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts
unto wisdom.
Turn thee again ( O' Lord ) at the last, and be gracious unto
thy servants.
O' satisfy us with thy mercy, and that soon: so shall we
rejoice and be glad all the days of our life. Comfort us again, now
after the time that thou hast plagued us, and for the years wherein
we have suffered adversity.
Show thy servants thy work, and their children thy glory.
And the glorious majesty of the Lord our God be upon us: O'
prosper thou the work of our hands upon us. O' prosper thou our
handy work.
From the Hebrew; Moses ="drawn" (of water)

Chapter 91
Who so dwelleth under the
defense of the most highest, and abideth under the shadow of the
Almighty.
He shall say unto the Lord: O' my hope, and my stronghold, my
God, in whom I will I trust. For he shall deliver thee from the
snare of the hunter, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover
thee under his wings, that thou mayest be safe under his feathers:
his faithfulness and his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
So that thou shalt not need to be afraid for any bugs by
night, ner for the arrow that flieth by day. For the pestilence that
creepeth in the darkness, ner the sickness that destroyeth in the
noonday.
A thousand shall fall beside thee, and ten thousand at thy
right hand, but it shall not come nye thee.
Yee with thine eyes shalt thou behold, and see the reward of
the ungodly.
For thou Lord art my hope, thou hast set thine house of
defense very high.
There shall no evil happen unto thee, neither shall any plague
come nye thy dwelling.
For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in
all thy ways.
They shall bear thee in their hands, that thou hurt not thy
foot against a stone.
Thou shalt go upon the Lion and Adder, the young Lion and the
Dragon shalt thou tread under thy feet.
Because he hath set his love upon me, I shall deliver him: I
shall defend him, for he hath known my name. When he calleth
upon me, I shall hear him: Yee I am with him in his trouble,
whereout I will deliver him, and bring him to honor.
With long life will I satisfy him, and show him my salvation.

Chapter 92
A Psalme of the song for the sabbath
day.
It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing
praises unto thy name, O' most highest. To tell of thy
lovingkindness early in the morning, and of thy truth in the night
season. Upon an instrument of ten strings, upon the lute and with a
song upon the harp. For thou Lord hast made me glad through thy
works, and I will rejoice over the works of thy hands. O' Lord, how
glorious are thy works, thy thoughts are very deep.
An *unwise man will not know this, and a fool will not
understand it.
That the ungodly are green as grass, and that all the works of
wickedness do flourish to be destroyed for ever.
But thou Lord O' most highest, abidest world without end.
For, lo, thine enemies, O' Lord, lo, thine enemies shall
perish, and all the workers of wickedness shall be scattered abroad.
But my horn shall be exalted like the horn of an unicorn, and shall
be anointed with fresh oil. Mine eye shall also see *his lust of
mine enemies, and mine ear shall hear *his desire of the wicked that
rise up against me.
The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree, and grow like
a Cedar of Lebanon.
Such as be planted in the house of the Lord, be fruitful,
plenteous and green.
That they may show, how true the Lord my strength is, and
there is no unrighteousness in him.
*An unwise man is he that is
unfaithful, an hypocrite, or one that mistrusteth God. Prov 12, Isa
32. MN
(*my; kjv and other bibles of man use "my" here instead of "his" his
being the Lord's lust of enemies and desire of the wicked against
the choosen )

Chapter 93
The Lord is King, he hath put on
glorious apparel, the Lord hath put on his apparel, and girded
himself with strength: he hath made the round world so sure, that it
cannot be moved. From the time forth hath thy seat been prepared,
thou art from everlasting.
The floods arise ( O' Lord ) the floods lift up their noise,
the floods lift up their waves. The waves of the sea are mighty, and
rage horribly: but yet the Lord that dwelleth on high, is mightier.
Thy testimonies, O' Lord, are very sure, holiness becometh
thine house for ever.

Chapter 94
O' Lord God, to whom vengeance
belongeth: thou God to whom vengeance belongeth, show thyself. Arise
thou judge of the world, and reward to the proud after their
deserving. How long shall the ungodly, how long shall the ungodly
triumph?How long shall all the wicked doers speak so disdainfully,
and make such proud boasting?
They smite down thy people, O' Lord, and trouble thine
heritage.
They murder the widow and the stranger, and put the
*fatherless to death.
And yet they say: Tush, the Lord seeth not, the God of Jacob
regardeth it not.
Take heed, ye unwise among the people: O ye fools, when will ye
understand?
He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that made the
eye, shall he not see?
He that *nurtureth the Heathen, and teacheth a man knowledge,
shall not he punish?
The Lord knoweth the thoughts of men, that they are but vain.
Blessed is the man, whom thou learnest, ( O' Lord ) and
teachest him in thy law.
That thou mayest givest him patience in time of adversity,
until the pit be digged up for the ungodly. For the Lord will not
fail his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
And why? judgment shall be turned again unto righteousness,
and all such as be true of heart shall follow it. Who will rise up
with me against the wicked? *who taketh my part against the evil
doers?
If the Lord had not helped me, my soul had almost been put to
silence.
When I said: My foot hath slipped, thy mercy ( O' Lord ) held
me up. In the multitude of the sorrows that I had in my heart, thy
comforts have refreshed my soul.
Wilt thou have anything to do with that fool of wickedness,
which imagineth mischief in the law? They gather them together
against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
But the Lord is my refuge, my God is the strength of my
confidence.
He shall recompense them their wickedness, and destroy them in
their own malice: yee the Lord our God shall destroy them.
*Fatherless in the scripture are those that are destitute of all
things and that have no man to lean unto, or any to care for them.
Psalm 109. MN
*nurtureth ( kjv and other bibles of man use :chastiseth ) also see:
*who taketh my part against the evil doers? kjv and other bibles of
man = "for me" against the evildoers. RN

Chapter 95
O' Come let us praise the Lord,
let us heartily rejoice in the strength of our salvation. Let us
come before his presence with thanksgiving, and show ourself glad in
him with psalmes.
For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods.
In his hand are all the corners of the earth, and the strength
of the hills is his also.
The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands prepared the dry
land.
O' come, let us worship and bowdown ourselves: Let us kneel
before the Lord our maker. For he is our God: and we are the
people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hands.
Today if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as
when ye provoked in the time of temptation in the wilderness. Where
your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works.
Forty years long was I grieved with that generation, and said:
they ever error in their hearts, they verily have not known my ways.
Therefore I said unto them in my wrath, that they should not
enter into my rest.

Chapter 96
O' sing unto the Lord a new
song, sing unto the Lord all the whole earth. Sing unto the Lord,
and praise his name, be telling of his salvation from day to day.
Declare his honor among the Heathen, and his wonders among all
people. For the Lord is great, and *can not worthily be praised: he
is more to be feared then all gods. As for all the gods of the
Heathen, they be put Idols, but it is the Lord that made the
heavens.
Thanksgiving and worship are before him, power and honor are
in his Sanctuary.
Ascribe unto the Lord ( O ye kindreds of the Heathen ) ascribe
unto the Lord worship and strength. Ascribe unto the Lord the honor
of his name, *bring presents, and come into his courts.
O' worship the Lord in the *beauty of holiness, let the whole
earth stand in awe of him.
Tell it among the Heathen, that the Lord is King: and it is he
that maketh the round world so fast, that it can not be moved, and
how he shall judge the people righteously.
Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad: let the
sea make a noise, yee and all that therin is. Let the field be
joyful, and all that is in it, let all the trees of the wood leap
for joy.
Before the Lord, for he cometh: for he cometh to judge the
earth: yee with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the
people with his truth.
*kjv and other bibles of man: *KJ =
greatly to be praised, and KJ = *bring an offering. See this plainly
if our father is all spiritual, what presents could we offer except
those things pleasing to his heart and spirit. Also, come into the
judgement of God, not men. RN. See Psalms 86, where holiness is
trusting in the Lord, RN

Chapter 97
The Lord is King, the earth may
be glad thereof: yee the multitude of the Isles may be glad thereof.
Clouds and darkness are round about him, righteousness and judgment
are the habitation of his seat.
There goeth a fire before him, to burn up his enemies on every
side.
His lightnings give shine unto the world, the earth seeth it
and are afraid.
The hills melt like wax at the presence of the Lord of the
whole earth.
The very heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people
see his glory.
Confounded be all they that worship images, and delight in
their Idols: worship him all ye gods.
Sion heareth of it and rejoiceth: yee and the daughters of
Judah are glad because of thy judgments, O' Lord. For thou Lord art
the most highest over all the earth, thou art exalted far above all
gods.
O' ye that love the Lord, see that ye hate the thing which is
evil: the Lord preserveth the souls of his saints, he shall deliver
them from the hand of the ungodly. There is sprung up a light for
the righteous, and a joyful gladness for such as be true hearted.
Rejoice therefore in the Lord, ye righteous: and give thanks
for a remembrance of his holiness.
|

Chapter 98
O' sing unto the Lord a new
song, for he hath done marvelous things.
With his own right hand and his holy arm hath he gotten the
victory.
The Lord hath declared his saving health, and his
righteousness hath he openly showed in the sight of the Heathen.
He hath remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of
Israel: so that all the ends of the world see the saving health of
our God.
Show yourselves joyful unto the Lord all ye lands, sing,
rejoice, and give thanks.
Praise the Lord upon the harp, sing to the harp with a psalme
of thanksgiving.
With trumpets also and *shawmes: O' show yourselves joyful
before the Lord the King.
Let the sea make a noise and all therin is, yee the whole
world, and all that dwell therein. Let the floods clap their hands,
and let all the hills be joyful together:
Before the Lord, for he is come to judge the earth.
Yee with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the
people with equity.
*shawmes (cornet):

Chapter 99
The Lord is King, be the people
never so impatient: he sitteth upon the Cherubims, be the earth
never so unquiet. The Lord is great in Sion, and high above
all people.
O let men give thanks unto thy great and wonderful name, for
it is holy.
The kings power loveth judgment, thou preparest equity, thou
executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.
O' magnify the Lord our God, fall down before his footstool,
for he is holy.
Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among such as
call upon his name: these called upon the Lord, and he heard them.
He spake unto them out of the cloudy pillar, for they kept his
testimonies, and the law that he gave them. Thou heardest them ( O'
Lord our God ) thou forgavest them O' God, and punished their own
inventions.
O' magnify the Lord our God, and worship him upon his holy
hill, for the Lord our God is holy.
|

Chapter 100
A psalme of Praise.
O' be joyful in God ( all ye lands ).And serve the Lord with
gladness, come before his presence with joy.
Be ye sure, that the Lord he is God: It is he that hath made
us, and not we ourselves: we are but his people, and the sheep of
his pasture.
O' go your way into his gates then with thanksgiving, and into
his courts with praise, be thankful unto him, and speak good of his
name.
For the Lord is gracious, his mercy is everlasting, and his
truth endureth from generation to generation.

Chapter 101
A Psalme of David
My song shall be of mercy and judgment, yee unto thee ( O'
Lord ) will I sing.
Oh let me have understanding in the ways of Godliness, until
the time that thou come unto me: and so shall I walk in my house
with an innocent heart.
I will take no wicked thing in hand, I hate the sin of
unfaithfulness, it shall not cleave unto me. A froward heart shall
depart from me, I will not know a wicked person.
Who so privily slandereth his neighbor, him will I destroy:
who so hath a proud look and a high stomach, I may not away with
him.
Mine eyes shall look for such as be faithful in the land, that
they may dwell with me: and who so leadeth a godly life, shall be my
servant.
There shall no deceitful person dwell in my house, he that
telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.
I shall soon destroy all the ungodly of the land, that all the
wicked doers may be rooted out of the city of the Lord.

Chapter 102
A prayer of the afflicted, when
he was in woe, and poured out his complain before the Lord.
Hear my *prayer, O' Lord, and let my crying come unto thee.
Hide not thy face from me in the time of my trouble incline
thine ears unto me when I call, O' hear me and that right soon. For
my days are consumed away like smoke, and my bones are burnt as it
were a fire brand.
My heart is smitten down and withered like grass, so that I
forget to eat my bread.
For the voice of my groaning, my bone will scarce cleave to my
flesh.
I am become like a Pelican in the wilderness, and like an hole
in a broken wall.
I wake, and am even as a sparrow alone upon the house top.
Mine enemies revile me all the day long, they laugh me to
scorn, and are sworn together against me.
I eat ashes with my bread, and mingle my drink with weeping,
And that because of thine indignation and wrath, for thou hast taken
me up, and cast me away.
My days are gone like a shadow, and I am withered like grass.
But thou, O' Lord, endurest for ever, and thy remembrance
throughout all generations. Arise therefore and have mercy upon Sion,
for it is time to have mercy upon her, yee, the time is come.
And why? thy servants have a love to her *stones, and pitieth
them to see her in the dust.
The Heathen shall fear thy name, O' Lord, and all the kings of
the earth thy majesty.
For the lord shall build up Sion, and shall appear in his
glory.
*He turneth him to the prayer of the poor destitute, and
despiseth not their desire.
This shall be written for those that come after, that
the people which shall be born, may praise the Lord.
For he looketh down from his Sanctuary, out of the heaven doth
the Lord behold the earth. That he may hear the mournings of such as
be in captivity, and deliver the children of death.
That they may preach the name of the Lord in Zion, and his
worship at Jerusalem.
When the people are gathered together, and the kingdoms also
to serve the Lord.
He hath brought down my strength in my journey, and shortened
my days.
Yet will I say: O' my God, take me not away in the midst of my
age: as for thy years, they endure throughout all generations.
Thou Lord in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth,
and the heavens are the works of thy hands. They shall perish, but
thou shalt endure: they all shall wax old as does a garment, and as
a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed.
But thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.
The children of thy servants shall continue, and their seed
shall prosper in thy sight.
*True prayer is an earnest an affectionate communication of the
heart with God, and a diligent consideration of the things that want
in us concerning the seeking of his glory and the doing of his will:
with a burning and fervent desire of the spirit, that requireth him
to repay and amend that which is wanteneth in us. Psa 5, Prov 15,
Every Godly wish is also a good prayer. MN *Stones here signify the
men upon whom the congregation of God is edified and builded as in 1
Peter 2. And ye as living stones are made a spiritual house. MN *God
is counted to look and to turn him to whatsoever he approveth and
alloweth, and to whatsoever he is pleased with. Jerem 5, Thou O'Lord
lookest only on faith and truth. MN

Chapter 103
Praise the Lord, O' my soul, and
all that is within me praise his holy name.
Praise the Lord, O' my soul, and forget not all his benefits.
Which forgiveth all thy sins, and healeth all thy
infirmities.Which saveth thy life from destruction, and crowneth
thee with mercy, and lovingkindness. Which satisfieth thy desire
with good things, making thee young and lusty as an Eagle.
The Lord executeth righteousness and judgment, for all them
that suffer wrong.
He showed his ways unto Moses, and his works unto the children
of Israel.
The Lord is full of compassion and mercy, *longsuffering, and
of great goodness.
He will not always be chiding, neither will he keep his anger
forever. He hath not dealt with us after our sins, nor rewarded us
according to our wickedness.
For look how high the heaven is in comparison of the earth, so
great is his mercy also toward them that fear him. Look how wide the
east is from the west, so far hath he set our sins from us. Yee like
as a father pitieth his own children, even so is the Lord merciful
unto them that fear him.
For he knoweth whereof we be made, he remembereth that we are
but dust.
That a man in his time is but as grass, and florisheth as a
flower of the field.
For as soon as the wind goeth over it, it is gone, and the
place thereof knoweth it no more. But the merciful goodness of the
Lord endureth for ever and ever, upon them that fear him, and his
righteousness upon their childrens children.
Such as keep his covenant, and think upon his commandments to
do them.
The Lord hath preserved his seat in heavens, and his kingdom
ruleth over all.
O' praise the Lord ye angels of his, ye that be mighty in
strength, fulfilling his commandment that men may hear the voice of
his words.
O' praise the Lord all ye his Hosts, ye servants of his, that
do his pleasure.
O' speak good of the Lord all ye works of his, in every place
of his dominion: praise thou the Lord, O' my soul.
*The Lord is longsuffering which is more than patience: for he not
only suffereth but also discerneth vengeance, defying the amendment
of the sinner, loving better to pardon and forgive than to punish.
MN

Chapter 104
Praise the Lord O' my soul: O'
Lord my God, thou art become exceedingly glorious, thou art clothed
with majesty and honor. Thou deckest thyself with light, as it were
a garment, thou spreadest out the heavens like a curtain. Thou
boltest it above with waters, thou makest the clouds thy chariot,
and goest upon the wings of the wind.
Thou makest thine angels spirits, and thy ministers flames of
fire.
Thou hast laid the earth upon her foundation, that it never
moveth at any time.
Thou coveredst it with the deep like as with a garment, so
that the waters stand above the hills.
But at thy rebuke they flee, at the voice of thy thunder they
are afraid.
( Then are the hills seen aloft, and the valleys beneath in
their place which thou hast appointed for them) Thou hast set them
their bounds, which they may not pass, that they turn not again to
cover the earth. Thou causest the wells to spring up among the
valleys, and the waters to run among the hills.
That all the beasts of the field may have drink, and the wild
asses may quench their thirst.
Above upon the hills have the fowls of the air their
habitation, and sing among the branches. Thou waterest the hills
from above, the earth is filled with the fruits of thy works.
Thou bringest forth grass for the cattle, and green herbs for
the service of men.
Thou bringest food out of the earth: wine to make glad the
heart of man, oil to make him a cheerful countenance and bread to
strengthen mans heart.
The trees of the Lord are full of sap, even the trees of
Lebanus which he hath planted. There make the birds their nests, and
the fair hills are the dwelling place for the stork. The high hills
are a refuge for the wild goats, and so are the stony rocks for the
conies.
Thou hast appointed the Moon for certain seasons, the Sun
knoweth his going down. Thou makest the darkness, that it may be
night, wherein all the beasts of the forest do move.
Yee the young lions which roar after their prey, and seek
their meat at God.
But when the sun ariseth, they get them away together, and lay
down in their dens.
Then goeth forth man to his work, and to till his land until
the evening.
O' Lord, how manifold are thy works, right wisely hast thou
made them all: yee the earth is full of thy riches.
So is this great wide sea also, wherein are things creeping
and innumerable, both small and great beasts.
There go the ships over, and there is that Leviathan, whom
thou hast made, to take his pastime therein.
They wait all upon thee, that thou mayest give them meat in
due season.
When thou givest it them, they gather it: when thou openest
thine hand, they are filled with good.
But when thou hidest thy face, they are sorrowful: if thou
takest away their breath, they die, and turned again to their dust.
Again, when thou lettest thy breath go forth, they are made, and so
thou renewest the face of the earth.
The glorious majesty of the Lord endureth for ever, and the
Lord rejoiceth in his works. The earth trembleth at the look of him,
he doth but touch the hills and they smoke.
I will sing unto the Lord as long as I live, I will praise my
God while I have my being.
O' that my words might please him, for my joy is in the Lord.
As for the sinners, they shall be consumed out of the earth,
and the ungodly shall come to an end: but praise thou the Lord, O'
my soul.
Praise thee everlasting.
