PSAL. XXXVI.

1 The Prophet gricuously vexed by the wicked, doeth cō∣plaine of their malicious wickednes. 6 Then he turneth to consider the vnspeakable goodnes of God towardes all creatures: 9 But specially towards his children, that by the faith thereof he maye be comforted & assured of hys deliuerance by this ordinarie course of Gods worke 13 who in the ende destroyeth the wicked and 〈◊〉〈◊〉 the iuste.

¶ To him that excelleth. A Psal. of Dauid, the seruant of the Lord.

1 WIckednes saieth to the wicked man,a 1.1 cuē in mine heart, (that there is) no feare of God before his eyes.

2 For heb 1.2 flattereth hym selfe in hys owne eyes, while his iniquitie is found (worthie) to be hated.

3 The wordes of his mouthe (are) iniquitie andc 1.3 deceite: he hathe left of to vnderstand (and) to do good.

4 Hed 1.4 imagineth mischief vpon his bed: he setteth him selfe vpon a waie, (that is) not good (and) doeth not abhorre euil.

5 Thye 1.5 mercie, ô Lord, (reacheth) vnto the heauens, (and) thy faithfulnes vnto the cloudes.

6 Thy righteousnes (is) like the” 1.6 mightye mountaines: thy iudgements (are like) a greatf 1.7 deepe, thou, Lord, doest saue man & beast.

7 How excellent is thy mercie, ô God! ther∣fore the children of men truste vnder the shadowe of thy wings.

8 They shalbeg 1.8 satisfied with the fatnes of thine house, and thou shalt giue thē drinke out of the riuer of thy pleasures.

9 For with thee (is) the well of life, (&) in thy light shal we se light.

10 Extend thy louing kindenes vnto them thath 1.9 knowe thee, and thy ryghteousnes 〈◊〉〈◊〉 them that are vpright in heart.

11 Let not thei 1.10 fote of pride come agaynste me, and let not the hand of the wicked mē moue me.

12 k 1.11 There they are fallen that worke ini∣quitie: they are cast downe, and shal not be able to rise.
