The 118. Psalme made by DAVID, when he obteined his kingdome after the death of Saule.OH acknowledge, & declare yee openlie that the Lord is good, for his bountious goodnesse is for euer.Let Israel now con∣fesse this thing, for his bountious goodnes and mercie endureth for e∣uer.Let the stocke of Aa∣ron now confesse, that his louing kindnesse is perpetuall.Let all the sincere woorshippers of the Lord now confesse this, that his louing kindnesse is perpetuall.I doubtlesse, being a notable example of his vn∣speakable bountie, haue not ceased (as yee knowe) to call vpon him in my greatest extremities: and he (as you your selues see) hauing heard me, hath exalted me into this most large roome.Wherefore I, hauing experience that the Lord worketh for me, and that he is so neere at hand vnto me, God forbid that I should feare the power or the threats of anie man.For the Lord himselfe is the chiefe leader of those that helpe me, so that I can not doubt at all, but that I shall see with mine eies those enimies which re∣maine iustlie punished of him.Oh how far better is it to trust in the Lord, than in men!0
