- To him that excelleth.
A Psalme of Dauid.
- 1
- In the Lorde put I my trust: howe say yee then to my soule, Flee to your mountaine as a birde?
- 2
- For loe, the wicked bende their bowe, and make readie their arrowes vpon the string, that they may secretly shoote at them, which are vpright in heart.
- 3
- For the foundations are cast downe: what hath the righteous done?
- 4
- The Lord is in his holy palace: the Lordes throne is in the heauen: his eyes wil consider: his eye lids will try the children of men.
- 5
- The Lorde will try the righteous: but the wicked and him that loueth iniquitie, doeth his soule hate.
- 6
- Vpon the wicked he shal raine snares, fire, and brimstone, and stormie tempest: this is the porcion of their cup.
- 7
- For the righteous Lorde loueth righteousnes: his countenance doeth beholde the iust.
