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.
