PSALME 125.

A Prayer for confidence in God, and for de∣liverance from the portion of the wicked.

THey that put their trust in the Lord, shall be even as the mount Ston: which may not be removed, but standeth fast for ever.

2 The hills stand about Ierusalem: even so standeth the Lord round about his people, from this time forth for evermore.

3 For the rod of the ungodly cometh not into the lot of the righteous: lest the righteous put their hand unto wickednesse.

4 Do well, O Lord: unto those that be good and true of heart.

5 As for such as turne backe unto their owne wickednesse: the Lord shall leade them forth with the evill doers, but peace shall be upon Israel.

The Prayer.

O Lord God, our Trust and Confidence, in whom whosoever trusteth shall never be re∣moved, but standeth fast for ever: let thy mercies and the guard of holy Angels stand round about us, and about all thy holy people, like the hills for

our defence and safety, that we may be inaccessi∣ble by all the intendments of our enemies. O let us not put our hands to wickednesse, neither let our portion be in the lot of the ungodly, whom thou leadest forth to destruction, but let us receive the blessing which our Lord Iesus left unto his Church, even the peace of God the Father, of the Son, and of the holy Ghost; to whom be all honour and glory ascribed of men and Angels, now and for ever. Amen.
