THE PARAPHRASIS.

1 COme ye al, that we may celebrate the praises of the Lord together, and let vs sing altoge∣ther a song of triumph vnto him that is the onelie rocke of our saluation.

2 Let vs make haste to praise him openlie, and to sing Psalmes vnto him.

3 For God is a great Lord doubtles, and a King far aboue al emperours, how great soeuer.

4 For he hath in his power as the Lord of al, both the lowe secret parts of the earth, and the high tops of the mountaines.

5 And also he hath ful authoritie ouer the whole sea, as he that hath euen created it, like as he hath made the masse of the earth also by his power.

6 Come therefore, that we may fal downe and worship him, and kneele downe before the Lord

our maker.

7 For he is not onlie our God, as he is of others, but after a peculiar maner, as he that hath chosen vs, whome he wil feede as his sheepe, and lead by the hand as his flocke.

8 Therefore, so oft as you shal heare his voice, and so long as he speaketh vnto you, take heede least you stubbornelie striue against his voice, as it did fal out of old in those places, which thereof had their name Meribah and Massah.

9 Of the which matter, heare the words of God himselfe rebuking you: There, saith he, your fathers although they had so oft beholden with their eies what I was able to do, yet ceased they not to tempt me, and to trie my power.

10 Wherefore, I being greeued after so manie sorts fortie yeeres long by this kind of men, haue in the end thus determined with my selfe: Seeing that this people is wilfulie mad, and wil not knowe me, although it hath bene admonished so oft, both with words and deedes,

11 I sweare in my wrath, if euer they shal set one foote to take possession of that rest, which I had promised vnto them.
