¶ The. xcij. Psalme. [unspec A]
IT is a good thynge to gyue thankes vnto the Lor••e / and to synge prayses vnto thy name / O moste hyghest.
To tell of thy louynge kyndnesse earely in the mornynge / and of thy trueth in the nyght season. Upon an instrumente of ten strynges, and vpon the lute: vpon a lowde instrument / and vpon the harpe.
For thou Lorde haste made me glad tho rowe thy workes / and I wyll reioyse in ge∣nynge prayse for the operacions of thy han∣des. O Lorde howe glorious are thy [unspec B] workes: thy thoughtes are very depe. An v••wyse man doth nat well cōsydre this and a foole doth nat vnderstande it. Whā the vngodly are grene as the grasse / & whā all the workers of wyckednes do florish, thē shal they be destroyed for ••uer. But y• Lord arte the most hyest for euer more. For lo / thyne enemyes, O Lorde lo thyne ennemies shall perishe, and all the workers of wicked¦nes shalbe destroyed. But my horne shal∣be exalted like the horne of an Unicorne / for I am anointed with fresh oyle. Myne eye [unspec C] also shall se his luste of myne enemyes / and myne care shall heare his desyre of the wyc∣ked that ryse vp agaynst me. The rygh∣tuous shall floryshe lyke a Palme tree / and shall sprede abrode lyke a Cedre in Liban{us}.
Suche as be planted in the house of the Lorde shall floryshe in the courtes {fleur-de-lys} (of the house) of our god. They shall also bryng for the more frute in their age, & shalbe fat & well lykinge. That they may shewe, how true the Lorde my strēgth is, and that there is no vnryghtuousnesse in him.
