¶ The. lxiij. Psalme.
¶ A Psalme of Dauid, when he was in the wyldernes of Iuda. [unspec A]
O God, thou art my God: early wyll I* 1.1 seke the. My soule thrusteth for the: my flesshe also longethe after the in a baren and drye lande: where no water is.
Thus haue I loked for the in holynesse that I myght beholde thy power and glory
For thy louynge kyndnesse is better then lyfe it selfe, my lyppes shall prayse the.
As longe as I lyue wyll I magnyfye the on this maner, and lyft vp my handes in thy [unspec B] name. My soule shalbe satisfied euen as it were wt mary and fatnes, when my mouthe prayseth the with ioyefull lyppes.
Haue I nat remembred the in my bedde, & [unspec C] thought vpon the, whan I was wakynge?
Because thou haste bene my helper, ther∣fore vnder the shadowe of thy wynges wyll I reioyse. My soule hāgeth vpon the, thy ryght hande hath vpholden me. These also that seke the hurte of my soule, they shall go into the lower partes of the earthe. Let thē fal vpon the edge of the swerde, y• they may be a porcion for foxes. But y• kynge shal re¦ioyse in God * 1.2 all they also y• swere by hym shalbe cōmended, for the mouth of them chat speake lyes, shalbe stopped.
