PSALME 75.

A Prayer against the terrors of the day of Judgement.

MORNING PRAYER.

VNto thee (O God) doe we give thanks: yea, unto thee doe we giue thankes.

2 Thy name also is so nigh: and that doe thy wondrous workes de∣clare.

3 When I receiue the congregation: I shall iudge according unto right.

4 The earth is weak, and all the inhabiters thereof: I bear up the pillars of it.

5 I said unto the fools, Deal not so madly: and to the ungodly, Set not up your horn.

6 Set not up your horn on high: and speak not with a stiffe neck.

7 For promotion cometh neither from the East nor from the West: nor yet from the South.

8 And why? God is the iudge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.

9 For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup, and the wine is red: it is full mixt, and he pou∣reth out of the same.

10 As for the dregs thereof: all the ungodly of the earth shall drink them, and suck them out.

11 But I will talk of the God of Iacob: and praise him for ever.

12 All the horns of the ungodly also will I break: and the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.

The Prayer.

O Lord God the Iudge of all the world, from whom commeth all promotion and all pu∣nishment, have mercy upon us now, at the houre of death, and in the day of Iudgement, when thou shalt judge all the congregations of men and An∣gells according unto right: ô give us grace to ex∣pect thy comming in humility and charity, that we be not stiffe-necked and exalted in our owne opinions and conceptions, but may submit to thy yoke with meeknesse and obedience, that when thou shalt poure forth the cup of thy vengeance upon the ungodly, we may not drinke or tast of the dregs of it, but may sit downe at thy Table in the Supper of the Lamb, and be satisfied with the blessings of eternity, through Iesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
