They smite down thy people O Lord and trouble thine heritage 6 They murder the widow and the stranger and put the fatherlesse to death 7 And yet they say Tush the Lord shall not see neither shall the God of Jacob regard it 8 Take heed ye unwise among the people O ye fools when will ye understan● 9 He that planted the eare shall he not heare or hee that made the eye shall he not see 10 Or he that nurtureth the heathen it is he that teacheth man knowledge shall not he punish 11 The Lord knoweth the thoughts of man that they are but vain 12 Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest O Lord and teachest him in thy law 13 That thou mayest give him patience in time of adversity untill the pit be digged up for the ungodly 14 For the Lord will not fail his people neither will he forsake his inheritance 15 Untill righteousnesse turn again unto judgement all such as be true of heart shall follow it 16 Who will rise up with me against the wicked or who will take my part against the evill doers 17 If the Lord had not helped me it had not failed but my soul had been put to silence 18 But when I said My foot hath slipped thy mercy O Lord held me up 19 In the multitude of the sorrows that I had in my heart thy comforts have refreshed my soul. 20 Wilt thou have any thing to doe with the stoole of wickednesse which imagineth mischief as a law 21 They gather them together against the soul of the righteous and condemn the innocent bloud 22 But the Lord is my refuge and my God is the strength of my confidence He shall recompence them their wickednesse and destroy them in their own malice yea the Lord our God shall destroy them The Prayer O Lord God Judge of the world to whom vengeance belongeth and the execution of righteous judgements have mercy upon us chasten us with thy gentlenesse and fatherly correction when we sin against thee teach us in thy law be our refuge and our confidence in our troubles and give us patience in times of adversity that in the multitude of sorrows thy comforts may refresh us thy mercies may relieve us thy grace may pardon and confirm us that our feet slip not and our souls be not put to silence Have pitty upon all distressed and miserable people do justice upon all that murder the widow that put the fatherlesse to death that grinde the face of the poor Fail not thy people O Lord and forsake not thine inheritance but destroy the devices of all them that imagine mischief as a law and are confederate against the righteous to condemne the innocent to discountenance Religion to disadvantage thy worship and service that in the day of eternall vengeance when thou shalt reward the proud after their deserving and the pit be digged for the ungodly we may have the lot of thine inheritance and reign in the fellowship of Saints who give honour and praise to thee O Lord God Almighty world without end Amen Morning Prayer PSALME 95.
