Vide humilitatem.

O Consider mine aduersitie, and deliuer me: for I doe not forget thy Law.

Auenge thou my rause and deliuer me: quicken mee according vnto thy word.

Health is farre from the vngodly: for they regard not thy statutes.

Great is thy mercie, O Lord: quicken mee, as thou art woont.

Many there are that trouble me, and persecute me: yet do I not swarue from thy restimonies.

It grieueth mee when I see the transgressours: because they kept not thy Law.

Consider, O Lord, how I loue thy commandements: O quicken me according to thy louing kindnesse.

Thy word is true from euerlasting: all the iudgements of thy righteousnesse endure for euermore.

Principes persecuti sunt.

PRinces haue perseruted me without a cause: but my heart standeth in awe of the words.

I am as glad of thy worde: as one that findeth great spoyles.

As for lyes I hate and abhorre them: but thy law doe I loue.

Seuen times a day doe I praise thee: because of thy righ∣teous iudgements.

Great is the peace that they haue which loue thy Law: and they are not offended at it.

Lord, I haue looked for thy sauing health: and done after thy commandements.

My soule hath kept thy testimonies: and loued them excee∣dingly.

I haue kept thy commandements and testimonies: for all my wayes are before thee.
