Gap elements of known extent have been transformed into placeholder characters or elements to simplify the filling in of gaps by user contributors. EEBO-TCP is a partnership between the Universities of Michigan and Oxford and the publisher ProQuest to create accurately transcribed and encoded texts based on the image sets published by ProQuest via their Early English Books Online (EEBO) database (http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The general aim of EEBO-TCP is to encode one copy (usually the first edition) of every monographic English-language title published between 1473 and 1700 available in EEBO. EEBO-TCP aimed to produce large quantities of textual data within the usual project restraints of time and funding, and therefore chose to create diplomatic transcriptions (as opposed to critical editions) with light-touch, mainly structural encoding based on the Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org). The EEBO-TCP project was divided into two phases. The 25,363 texts created during Phase 1 of the project have been released into the public domain as of 1 January 2015. Anyone can now take and use these texts for their own purposes, but we respectfully request that due credit and attribution is given to their original source. Users should be aware of the process of creating the TCP texts, and therefore of any assumptions that can be made about the data. Text selection was based on the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature (NCBEL). If an author (or for an anonymous work, the title) appears in NCBEL, then their works are eligible for inclusion. Selection was intended to range over a wide variety of subject areas, to reflect the true nature of the print record of the period. In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so. Image sets were sent to external keying companies for transcription and basic encoding. Quality assurance was then carried out by editorial teams in Oxford and Michigan. 5% (or 5 pages, whichever is the greater) of each text was proofread for accuracy and those which did not meet QA standards were returned to the keyers to be redone. After proofreading, the encoding was enhanced and/or corrected and characters marked as illegible were corrected where possible up to a limit of 100 instances per text. Any remaining illegibles were encoded as s. Understanding these processes should make clear that, while the overall quality of TCP data is very good, some errors will remain and some readable characters will be marked as illegible. Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor. The texts were encoded and linked to page images in accordance with level 4 of the TEI in Libraries guidelines. Copies of the texts have been issued variously as SGML (TCP schema; ASCII text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable XML (TCP schema; characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless XML (TEI P5, characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or TEI g elements).

The KEYES and Holly Things of DAVID . Translated out of the Hebrevv , According to the Letter , and the Mystery of them . AND According to the rule and Methode of the Compile-er . Opened in Proper Arguments vpon every PSALME , following the same . BY ALEXANDER TOP ESQVIER . AMSTELREDAM . Printed by Ian Fredericksz Stam. M. DC . XXIX . To the Highe and mighty Prince : CHARLES : By the grace of God , KING of England , Scotland , France , and Irland : Defendour of the faith , &c. All Grace , peace and felicity Everlasting . MOSTE GRATIOVS SOVERAIGNE : Becaus the children of God bee peaceable , and the Kingdom of heaven belongeth to the poore in spirit , and contention is a hinderance of understanding , and Skorners are farr from it : becaus wisdom is the true happines , and stops the mouth of iniquity : becaus the lion and the serpent is vanquished , and Iustice raigneth , and the Turtle dove is com and heard in our land : becaus the glory of the law & the strength therof shineth in your Majesties hart , by cleernes of judgement & golden verity : becaus your Majesty is the Prince of peace ; & an endles gouvernment is layd upon you ; and none els is fitt to sit upon the Throne of David : I humbly present unto your Majestyes handes , this Scepter of the Psalmes of David , his service & my paines to your Majestyes service ; as fear to whom fear , and honour to whom honour , & Scepters to whom Scepters belong , beeing an instrument full of eyes , sharp & provident & fitt for gouvernment , made of Moses and the Prophets , & hath Christ and his Apostles looking on it . That your Majesty may never bee weary of beholding it : when your Majesty shall perceive how potentiall it is made for the Church : by sweet invitation of skorners , by revelation to the Ignorant , and resolution to the straitened . How therby , the wisdom of the Ministry of that great congregation and Allowance of the Temple of Ierusalem , and their blessing of the poore , with instruction , & crowning of them that keep the law & reprobation of the contentious , to answer all reprochers : the most heavenly perfection of the church , that beareth all peace and beatitude , is brought to light . By dividing the waters of the Scriptures and making a cleer passage through the depth therof . The rod of government that ceaseth all contention in them , and melteth the hard rocks & bringeth liquor of life out of the same . Considering the heighth of the stile , and depth of the invention ; the reach of the work , and largenes of Matter , becaus the world ( I suppose ) have no more such piles : I make your Majesty the Pillar and stay of all . And as the deliverance is upon the knees of your Majestyes Dominion : that your Majesty may live in them , and they bee susteined by your Majesty , that your Majesty my live eternally with them , and they with your Majesty , that your Majesty bee ever blessed by them , & they by your Majesty , that your Majesty may sanctify them , & they may sanctify your Majesty . That your Majestyes name may bee their sanctuary , & they the Ministers to extoll the same , as long as the sunn and moon lasteth . That by the light in the night of them , & the clowdynes in the day time : they may , & the Church may , & all the Godly may , walk safe & untouched of the Enimy , and live and Conquer for ever . Seeing all kinde of rule and art & government & regularity is conteined in them , that nothing is wanting . That your Majesty like David may lead yours with a skillfull hand , & feed them hartily . And thus have your Majesty a most glorious entrance into the strong and invincible citty of David , the fort of Sion . Where all the blinde and lame are smitten , and a most heavenly pile of cleernes and uprightnes and Kingdom of knowledge is erected . By Principles in the tongue , and in religion , and in divinity , by letter and figure , till it come to a perfection of strength & glory for the defendour , & such was the occasion of this work . The work is so well knitt together from Psalme , to Psalme , & one matter to another , and one thing with another : that they are not to bee sundred for the strength therof . And that your Majesty may say the same : and perceive , how the stile is lifted from the ground , & how the heavenly understandíng is overcovered with cloudes : I here present a revelation therof , by naturall Arguments rising from them , for your Majesty to lean on , while your Majesty ministreth just judgement , & giveth the strength of the Law to your people , to feed on . And that your Majestyes endes may bee ever blessed : that the wicked bee Cutt off , and the just may ever possess the land & peace enough to delight them . And now the vail of all is drawen & the light is manifest : I moste humblely submit all to your Majesty , the Shield of Truthe , and end with Iob. No man can bee silent for want of knowledge . I therfor repent ; and give over , pray your Majestyes pardon , & conclude with prayer for your Majestyes dayes and raigne , as the dayes of heaven with all happynes . Your Majestyes moste humble subject , ALEXANDER TOP . To the Reader . COnsider , Gentle Reader , that all Knowledge and Learning is descended f●om rudenes , and inclines to return unto it . With much pain it was brought forth : so with might and main it must bee held up , lest all runn into confusion again . And this is the work of the Prophet . All piles incline to confusion the●for hee seeketh to save the Law. Because in language ther bee many kindes . weigh his rule , hee writeeth upon the five books , five books : under the five beginnings out of the five books ; to wit , the first wordes of every book . That he so purposed : the ends and the beginnings , do throughly prove . They make every one a perfect conclusion , and beginn directly upon the first wordes of the same book in the Law. Though the books bee precisely five : yet the number of the psalm continueth through all , which cannot but intend mystery . This way is not strange to Poets , to descant upon words by allegoricall discours . by this , hee travaileth onely upon the mysteryes , and doubtfullnes of the Law , or the termes of it , in the propheticall or heavenly stile , takeing his frame from the Prophets . And this shall suffice to make the psalmes to argue the Law. Every glory hath his covering : Is. 4. so the psalms are a brief copy of the Law. They treat of the Law and of the King , as every Law must have a King. as it is a kingdom . The Law is made out of the vertues , and the psalms ext●ll it much out of the names of God. The psalms do carry a fair outward stile , but their treasure is within them ; and that is their holines . They are indeed the revelation of the Law and the Prophets . His way is all upon A. B. C. defect , abounding , or disordered , becaus the Letters bee so significant . This is no strange lerning , for most of the other books of ●he bible play the like . By any strangenes in the constructiō , you shal find the mystery . he works every psalm to agree with the number of it , by the significatiō of the letters : becaus the letters in the tongue be so significant , that it were absurd to neglect thē , of frowardnes to thwart the allusion , or to cross them . Vnder such a cloud hee passeth , and with such a vail hee revealeth . The curiosity is not to bee wondred at , yf you consider the diligence of the Masorites , and Rabbins , and their thirteen rules for the study of the Law. He draweth all to the immortall life of the Law , and the kingdom of God , and the power and glory therof , the way of Godlines , and commendation therof , for his title PRAISES . yf this bee his way , I have set your feet therin , and I rejoyce . As for my way : first I have not versed the Psalms , becaus they can carry no mystery with us , & becaus the coherence is scattered , by the curiosity of the work , that it is like a latine vers , with great distance between the Concords , neither can a psalm be construed but with relation from end to end . I have cut them into three parts , so much the better to conclude them : by how much the greater the sections are , for the gathering of the more sens before the pause . The busines of every psalm beeing threefold : the section naturally agreeth . As a Proposition , Example , and Conclusion . Mark the first psalm . Such a one is happy . How ? Like a tree &c. And why ? Becaus . or for , &c. So moste commonly the division will answer to thes questions , what , how , and why , though the psalm cannot bee cut precisely at the question . My Quotations are ordered in three Columnes , unversed , for the multiplicity of them . The first of Psalms , the next of the Law and first Prophets , to wit , all the books to Isaiah . The last , all from Isaiah and likewise the new testament . They are of as many kindes as ther can be questions : somtimes for the language , somtimes for sens , somtimes for matter , sometimes for form , sometimes for phrase , sometime for wordes , and sometime for construction , quality , time or place , &c. by the points they are to bee applyed . You shall know them by their fruit , and shall soon see by the recommendation of places in the psalmes : what profit will com of the rest of all the books , yf they were requoted accordingly . for so the vers may well be spared . For variation of the letter both in word and Clause : it manifesteth , how the Construction goeth , and accenteth the matter and sense of every Psalme ; and that in many respects . The Capitals are for Generals , to which all parts have relation . And they are usually doubled and multiplyed : that they may be noted . The change in the Clause , is a satisfaction to all question , according as the stile declineth : often doubled and multiplied also . My arguments are of this sort ; first , a representing of the psalme , in proper or figurative language . Secondly , a Construction which applyeth it self wholely to the letters and exposition of them . And thirdly , how every psalm hath dependance from the first words of his proper book of the law . And all is to revive the Prophet , and bring his glory to light , for a light unto all nations , and a glory to our own . God give Light , and also Grace . Farewell . Thine in the Lord. A. T PRAYSES . HAPPY is hee that followeth not wicked counsell nor continueth in a sinfull way , nor can abide mockers : but delighteth in the doctrine of the ETERNALL and thinketh upon his lessons , day and night . For hee shal be like a tree planted by the water-bróokes , that giveth his fruit in his season , , whose leaves never wither , and that bringeth all that ever it doth , to good . The wicked shall not be so ; but as the chaff which the winde driveth away , therefore the wicked shall not indure in time of judgement nor Sinners among the Righteous : for the ETERNALL will make the way of the Righteous plaine , but the way of the wicked shall perish . II. WHY doe the nations keepe such stirr , and the people TALK so idley ? the Kings and Princes of the earth oppose themselves and joyne toge●her against the ETERNALL'S Anoynted ? Let vs breake their bandes , and cast away their cordes ; The LORD in heaven doth but laugh at them . And hee made them sore afraid , when hee tolde them in his kindled anger , I have appointed my King over Sion , my holy Hill ; I will shew the Decree of the ETERNALL , that saith of mee , Thou art my Sonn , this Day I begat thee ; Aske mee , and I will give thee the Heathen for thine inheritance , and the worldes end for thy Posession ; thou shalt rull them with an iron rodd , and beat them in pieces as a Potter his potts . And now ye Kinges and Iudges of the erth , beware and take heed , serve the Eternall gladly , with feare and trembling , make much of the child , least he be angry , and yee perish quite away , if his anger be but a litle kindled : Happy are all they that put their trust in him . III. A Psalme of David , when hee fled from Absolom , his Sonn . O ETERNALL how many are mine afflictors ! how many rise against mee ! how many say of mee ! God hath no salvation for him surely . Yet thou ô Eternall art a Buckler about mee , my glory and holder vp of my head . I complaine to the Eternall , and hee heareth mee from his holy Hill ; Surely I ly down and sleep , and wake againe for the Eternall susteineth mee . I feare not , if ten thousand people sett vpon mee , and besiege mee round about : vp ô Eternall , and save mee , ô God , smite my wicked enemies on the cheek , and break their teeth . Salvation is with the ETERNALL , and thy blessing vpon thy people , surely . IV. For the Maister in Musicque , A Psalme of David . O God , my RIGHTEOVSNES , heare mee when I cry , and widden to mee , in my destresse , haue pitty on mee , and heare my Prayer . Men how long in repróch of my Glory , will yee love vanity and invent falshood , surely ? And be sure the ETERNALL severeth the Gratious one to himselfe , & the ETERNALL will heare mee when I cry vnto him . Therefore sinn not in your murmuring ; bethink you in your mindes , and imagine quietly on your bed , surely . Sacrifice sacrifices of RIGHTEOVSNES , and trust in the ETERNALL . Many desire to see som good , doe thou , ô ETERNALL , open vpon vs the light of thy countenance , thou shalt make mee merier in hart then they are at the great increase of their corne and wine ; and besides , I shall ly down and sleep in quiet for thou only , ô ETERNALL , makeest mee abide in safety . V. For the Maister vpon the winde Musicque , A Psalme of David . O ETERNALL , marke my wordes , vnderstand my MEDITATION , hearken to my complaint ( my KING and GOD ) when I pray vnto thee , ô Eternall , betimes in the morning , heare my voice , assoone as I awake , and frame it to thee . Because thou art not a God delighted in vvickednes , neither doth any evill inhabit thee , there stand no vain boasters in thy sight ; thou hatest all vvrong dooers , thou destroyest Lyers , bloudy and deceitfull men the Eternall abhorreth . Therefore I in thy great Kindnesse come into thine house , and in thy feare vvorship at thy holy Temple , lead mee , ô Eternall , by thy RIGHTEOVSNES , and make thy vvayes plain before mee , because of mine Enimies , for ther is no firme thing in their mouthes , they are smoothe tonged , and they haue throates like open Graues , and thoughtes full of corruption . Make them desolate , ô God , let them fall by their counsells , beat them dovvne vvith their mighty trespasses , for rebelling against thee , that all that trust in thee , and love thy Name , may bee glad and reioyce in thee , & triumph in thy Protection for ever , hovv thou blessest the Righteous , ô Eternall , and guárdest him vvith a gratious shield . VI. For the Master in Song Musicque , vpon the Octava , A Psalme of David . O ETERNALL , rebuke me not in thine anger , nor correct mee in thy choler ; have pitty on mee ô ETERNALL , fór my bones be astónished , and my mind much troubled , because thou art so long . Come ô ETERNALL , release my life , and save mee for thy Mercies sake , for in death there is no thinking on thee , and in the grave who shall thanke thee ? I am weary of my gronings , every night I wet my bed and make my pallet flow with teares . Mine eye-sight is decayed with griefe , my coúlour is gone by mine enemies meanes ; away from mee all yee molesters , the ETERNALL hath heard my weeping , hath heard my supplication ; the ETERNALL accepteth my prayer . Ashame and great astonishment be on all mine Enemies : let them all come to sodaine shame . VII . Davids Song of Error , which hee sang concerning Cush the Ieminite . O ETERNALL , ô my God , save mee that put my trust in thee , and deliver mee from all my pursuers , least they teare mee , and devoure mee like Lions , and I haue no deliuerer . ô ETERNALL my God , if I haue don any such iniury : if my handes haue don any such wrong as this : if I haue rewarded him that payed m●e ill , and requited him that tormented mee for nothing : then surely , let the Enimy pursúe mee and overtake mee , and lay mine honour in the dust ; and tred my life on the ground . Vp ô Eternall in thine anger , advance thy selfe for my tormentors , and let mee haue the iudgement , which thou hast ordeined , yea , get thee vp on high , with a number of people about thee , the Eternall that iudgeth the folke , iudge mee ô ETERNALL , according to my RIGHTEOVSNES , and perfection which is on mee . O God , thou IVST one ; & examiner of the hart and reynes : Let the malice of the wicked haue an end ; and set thou fast the Iust. My defence is vpon God that saveth the VPRIGHT in hart . God is a iust Iudge and a severe God allwayes , if a man return not , he whets his sword , and bends his bow and makes it ready , and prepares him deadly weapons , and makes his arrows for persecutors . Lo hee that conceiueth pain and is great with sorrow , and bringeth forth falshood : deggeth a pitt and vndermineth it , and falleth into it , when hee hath made it , His mischeeff commeth vpon his owne head , and his cruelty lighteth on his owne crown . I thank the Eternall for his IVSTICE , and praise his most high Name . VIII . A Psalme of David : for the Maister vpon the Gitt . O ETERNALL our God , how noble art thou in all the earth , and worshipfull aboue the heavens ! thou hast made sucking children ( in respect of thine Afflictors ) able with their mouthes , to put to silence the moste spitefull Enimy . When I look vpon the hevens of thy fingers makeing , and the Moon and the starrs of thine appointment : I wonder thou hast such a minde to a wreched creature ; and lookest so well vnto man. Thou hast made him want litle of God , thou hast crowned him with Glory and worship . Thou makest him ruller ouer thy work , and puttest all vnder him , all sheep and oxen , and beasts , and foul , and fish , travailing the pathes of the seas . ô Eternall our God , how noble art thou in all the erth ! IX . For the Maister of Musicque vpon the Death of the Sonn . I Thank the ô ETERNALL with all my hart , and set foorth all thy wonders , thou madeest mee exceeding glad , and to chaunt out thy Name , ô Moste-highe , for turning mine enimies back , which fell and perished before thee : for thou hast giuen foorth my iudgement and sentence like a righteous Iudge , thou hast chid the Heathen and destroyed the wicked , & wipeed out their name for euer and all . Thou hast broken down their Citties , they be consumed and ly waste , and their memory is perished for euer . The ETERNALL sitteth euer ready for iudgement , to iudge the world righteously , & sentence the people iustly ; and to bee a refuge for the oppressed , a refuge at times of destresse : and let them that know thy name , trust in thee ; for thou forsakest none that seek thee , ô ETERNALL . Chaunt yee to the ETERNALL in Sion , tell the people his excellent acts ; How hee that findes out blood , will remember them , & not forget the cry of the poore . Haue pitty on mee , ô ETERNALL , behold my oppression by them that hate mee , ô thou that takeest mee vp from deathes dore . That I may shew all thy PRAISES in the gates of Sion , beeing glad of thy saluation . The Heathen are sunk into the pitt which they made themselues , and are caught in a nett of their owne laying . Surely the SENTENCE of the ETERNALL , that doth iudgement , is manifest : The wicked is snareed by the work of his owne handes & thought also . The wicked shall goe to Hell , and all Nations that forget God : but the poore shall not still be forgottē , nor the hope of the afflicted perish for euer . Vp ô Eternall , let not woefull men prevaile , let the Heathen be iudged in thy sight , teách the Heathen to know , they are but woefull men , surely . X. O ETERNALL , why art thou strange , and hideest out of sight at times of destresse ? the wicked haue a pride in dogging the poore . Let them bee caught in their owne meaning . For the wicked boast eth of his own hartes desire ; and the Eternall that blesseth him in his desires : hee blasphemeth . When the wicked is vp , on High , hee hath no minde of God at all ; neither will hee , once seek his face . His wayes allwayes prosper , that hee cannot perceiue thy Iudgements ; and maketh a puff at all his besiegers . Hee thinketh hee shall never bee moued , because hee is in no ill , there is nothing in his mouth but cursing and swering , deceit and guile : and nothing in his tonge but molestation and greeff . Hee lyeth in waite in his closters and privy courts , to slay the Innocent ; His eyes level at the Harmlesse , hee lurketh close , like a Lion in his den , to catch the poore , and catcheth him by drawing him into his nett , and by his sorces , beateth down the harmlesse ones , and sayeth in his minde : The Almighty will forget it , hee will hide his face and never see it . Vp , ô Eternall , lift vp thy hand , ô thou Mighty one , and forget not the meek ones ; wherefore should the wicked Blaspheme God , sayeing in his hart ; Thou examinest not ? Thou knowest , thou beholdest all molestation and vexation , and hast it in thine owne handes ; The destitute leaveth himselfe vpon thee , thou art hee that helpeth the Fatherlesse : break the wickeds arme , serch out all his wicked naughtines as long as thou canst finde any . O ETERNALL the euerlasting & perpetuall King , that the Heathen doe perish out of his land : Heare thou the desire of the meek , thou that preparest their hart ; listen with thine eares , to defend the Fatherlesse that the man of the erth tirannize no more . XI . For the cheef Musician , by David . IN the ETERNALL doo I rely , how say you then to my person , fly birdes to your Hills , for lo ; The wicked bend their bowes and haue their arrowes on the string , privily to shoot at the vpright , and to destroy the ground work that the Iust hath wrought ? The ETERNALL , whos Hollynes is in his Temple , and his throne in Heaven : his eyes behold it , his eye lides try all human men ; the ETERNALL approveth the iust , but the wicked and iniurious man hee hartily detesteth . He will raine vpon the wicked , snares and fire and brimstone stormes , the portion of their cup ; but the Iust Eternall loueth iustice , and his countenance regardeth the vpright . XII . For the cheef vpon the Octava , A Psalme of David . HELP thou , ô ETERNALL , for there is not a sincere or faithfull man left of all human men ; but are all at an end and dispersed : they talke all counterfetly one with another , with smooth lipps and hollow hartes . The ETERNALL cut of all flattering lips , and proud-speaking tongs , that say : With our tongs wee will confirme our talke , our lips are ours , who is master over vs ? For the spoile of the meek and cry of the poore , I will vp sayth the ETERNALL , and set him in safety that is conspired against . The Sayings of the Eternall are pure sayings , like tryed siluer , siluer clensed seuen times ouer , in a fine erthen vessell : keep them ô Eternall , and preserve him from the wordly generation , the wicked that walk all about , when the vile sort of men is exalted . XIII . For the Cheeff Musician , A Psalme of David . HOW long wilt thou still forget mee , ô ETERNALL ? How long wilt thou hide thy face from mee ? How long shall I take thought in my minde , and sorrow in my hart dayly ? How long shall mine Enimies be exalted over mee ? Looke vpòn mee & consider mee , ô ETERNALL my God , and lighten mine eyes that deathsleep take mee not , and mine Enimy say , I haue gotten Dominion over him : and my beseegers reioyce at my fall , when I am gon . And I , that trust in thy loving kindenes , with a glad hart for thy salvation : may sing vnto the Eternall what hee hath done for mee . XIV . Of the Cheeff Musician , of David . THE foolish man thinketh there is no God , and they doe all manner of wicked , and abhominable corrupt work , and none doth good . The ETERNALL looketh out of Heaven vpon all human men , to see if there were any that would consider , and seeke after God ; and all were gon away , and all become stinking reprobates together : none dooing good , no not one . Doe not all the workers of greeff know , they eat vp my people like meat when they call not on the ETERNALL ? where they are afrayd that God is in the generation of the IVST : yee make the poore abashed of their conceit , of relying on the Eternall . God grant that Iacob may be once glad , and Israel reioyce from Tzion , the saluation of Israel : when the Eternall shall bring again the captivity of his people . XV. A Psalme of David . O ETERNALL , who shall dwell in thy Tabernacle , and inhabit still in thy holly Hill ? Hee that walketh perfect , worketh Iustice ; and in his conscience speaketh the truth . Hee that hindreth not his freend with his tong , and hurteth him not ; and raiseth no reproch against his neighbour . Hee that despiseth the reprobate , and much esteemeth them that feare the ETERNALL ; hee that sweareth to his freend and changeth not . Hee that lendeth his mony freely and not for gain , and taketh no reward against the Innocent : hee that doth thus , shall neuer be moued . XVI . A Mictam , or Illustration of David . KEEP mee , ô thou Mighty one , for I rely vpon thee . ô my Welth , say thou to the ETERNALL , I am not for thee ; I am for the famous Saincts of the erth , which are my whole delight : Great bee their sorrows that runn to any other . I will offer none of their bloody offerings , nor take their names once in my lips . The ETERNALL mainteine my LOT , Hee is my portion , my part and my cup. My measures light in pleasant places , and a goodly HERITAGE is fallen to mee . I thanke the ETERNALL : Hee counselleth mee , and my reines teach mee by night , I set the ETERNALL allwayes by mee at my right hand that I slip not . Therefore my hart is glad , my body reioyceth , and my flesh dwelleth assured : that thou wilt not leave mee at Hell ; nor let thy sacred one see the pitt below ; but wilt shew mee the path of life , the fullnes of ioyes that are before thee , and pleasures at thy right hand for euer . XVII . A Prayer of David . O ETERNALL , marke well my righteous cry , and heare my prayer with vndeceitfull lips . I will bee iudged by thee , thine eyes behold the right , which proovest and seest my hart in the night , and tryest mee to the vttermost . I meane not to overshoot with my mouth , by the word of thy lips I take heed to the workes and pathes of the ROBBER : keep my steps in thy high wayes , that my feet slip not . When I call thee , answer mee ô thou Mighty one , turn thine eare to mee , & heare my Saying : Thou that savest by thy right hand them that relye theron : conceal mee by thy Kindenesses , from them that rise vp against mee . Keep mee as the aple of thine eye ; hide mee in the shaddovv of thy vvinges from my vvicked Enimies , that in minde cast about to destroy mee : vvith their mouthes , they speak svvelling vvordes vvhich are closed vp vvith their fatt . Novv they goe round about mee , & vvach to lay mine vpright steps an the ground ; like Lions grady of prey , and Lions vvhelps lying close in their dens . Vp ô ETERNALL and stand before him , make him crouch , and by thy svvord reskue my life from the VVicked , by thy hand , ô Eternall , reskue mee from vvorldly men , that haue their part in this life , and haue their bellies full of thy store , and their Children haue enough , and leaue their residue for their babes after them , for when I awake and behold in RIGHTEOVSNES the Image of thy countenance , I am satisfyed . XVIII . By the Cheeff , by David cheeff Servant of the ETERNALL , who vttered to the ETERNALL the wordes of this Song , when the ETERNALL delivered him from the gripeing of all his enimyes , and from the handes of Saul , and sayd : I yeeld thee mercy , ô ETERNALL my fortification ; the ETERNALL that is my Rock and my Fortresse , my Reskuer , my Might and Safegard , my Defence , my Releeff and Horne of Salvation , in whom I relyed : I called on the ETERNALL , ( who is to be praised ) and I was saved from mine Enimies . Deadly sorrowes compassed mee , whole floodes of the wicked frighted mee ; the very cordes of Hell were round about mee , and snares of death before mee . In my destresse I called on the ETERNALL , who hard my voyce in his Temple , & my shoute ( before him ) came into his eares . And the erth quaked and gaue a crack , the foundations of the Hills stirred , and they quaked , for it kindled him , his anger smoked and wax● a fire out of his mouth and devoured , & the coales burnt by it . He bowed the Heavens & came downe with mirknesse vnder his feet , rideing and flying vpon Cherub , and spread vpon the winges of the winde , hideing himselfe in darknes , and covering himselfe all about with the thicke watery cloudes of the sky . At his brightnes his cloudes went haile stones and coles of fire , and the Eternall thundered in heauen , and the High-one gaue his clap , and sent abroade all his arrowes , and disturbed them with haile stones , and coales of fire and great lightnings . At thy rebuke , ô Eternall , at the blasting breth of thine Anger , the water chanels were seen dry ; and the foundations of the world were revealed . Who sent from an high and tooke mee , and drew mee out of the great waters , and deliuered mee from my mighty Enimies , and foes that were to strong for mee , and had advantage over mee in my calamity . But the Eternall was the staff I leaned on , and hee brought mee foorth into a large place , and released mee , because hee delighted in mee . The Eternall restored mee according to my RIGHTEOVSNES , and rewarded mee according to the cleanes of my handes , because I keep the wayes of my God the ETERNALL , and haue not wickedly-swarved from him ; for all his Iudgements are by mee , and I cast not his prescriptions from mee ; and I am whole with him , and keep mee from mine iniquity : and the ETERNALL hath rewarded mee according to my righteousnes and purenes of my handes before him . Thou with the kinde , art moste kinde ; with the intire , moste intire ; with the pure , moste pure ; with the froward , moste perverse , because thou savest the opp●essed people and humblest the proud lookes , because thou lightedst my candle , and my God the ETERNALL cleered my darknes . For by thee , my God , I runn leaping on the garreson wall . The way of the Almighty is perfect , and the Saying of the ETERNALL , a tryed saying : Hee is a DEFENDOVR of all that rely on him . For what God , or what safegard is there beside● our God , the ETERNALL ? The Almighty , that girded mee with valour , & made my way perfect , makeing my feet like hindes feet , to stand vpon my high places , that teacheth my handes for bataile , and mine armes to breake a bow of steel . For thou gauest mee the shield of thy Saluation , and heldest mee vp with thy right hand , and with thy lowlines hast made mee great . Thou madest broad my footsteps vnder mee , and my ancles reeld not . I pursued mine Enimies , and overtook them ; and turned not again till I had made an end of them , I wounded them that they cold not stand , but fell vnder my feet : for thou girdedst mee with valour for battaile ; thou hast bowed downe vnder mee them , that rose vp against mee : thou gavest mee the neck of mine Enimies , and them that hatched mee , and I dissolued them . They shouted and there was no Saviour , vpon the ETERNALL , but hee answered them not , I layd them like durte in the street ; and beat them as small as dust before the winde , thou savedst mee from the contendings of people ; Thou settest mee cheeff among the Hethen ; a people that I knew not served mee , as sone as they heard of mee they obeyed mee : Strangers revolted to mee , the forein fadeed away , and shrunk from their holdes . Let the ETERNALL live , and blessed bee my Defendour , and the God of my Saluation bee exalted . The God that giveth mee revenge , and commandeth nations vnder mee ; that reskeweth mee from mine Enimies ; yea thou takest mee vp from mine Insurrectours , and deliuerest mee from the iniurious man. Therefore I will thanke the , ô ETERNALL , and sing praise vnto thy Name among the Hethen . The ETERNALL that gives his King so greate salvation , and sheweth such kindenes to his annointed , to David and his seed for ever . XIX . For the Cheeff , A Psalme of David . THE Hevens declare the glory of God ; and the FIRMAMENT setteth out his handy worke . Day vpon day , and night vpon night it vttereth speech , and manifesteth knowledge , and in all languages their tonge is vnderstood . For their Rulles goe over all the erth , and their wordes are heard in the farthest part of the worlde . In them hath hee made a dwelling for the SVNN that riseth like a Bridegroome coming out of his Bride Chamber ; cheerfull like a strong man to runn a race . The end of all the Hevens is his going out ; and his compasse towards the endes thereof ; that nothing can be hid from the heat thereof . The LAW of the ETERNALL is most perfect , and converteth the minde ; his Testimony is faithfull to advise the simple . The Statutes of the ETERNALL are plain , and cheere the hart . The Commandement of the ETERNALL is pure , and lighteneth the eyes , the feare of the ETERNALL continueth euer cleare ; the Iudgements of the ETERNALL are true and Iust. They are better to mee then gold , yea then much fine gold ; and sweeter then honny , and the dropping of the honny combes . Yea by them is thy Servant warned , and for keeping of them I haue good reward . There is no man that vnderstandeth all his owne faultes ; wherefo●e clense mee from my hidden ones ; and restrain thy Servant from proud presumptions , that they doe not overcome mee . That I may be perfect , and cleere of much transgression , and all my wordes and thoughts be in acceptation before thee , ô ETERNALL , my Creator and Redeemer . XX. For the Cheeff , A Psalme of David . THE ETERNALL heare thee in thy destresse , the CALLING vpon the God of Iacob , fortifie thee , and send the help from his Holy place , and support from Sion ; and thinke vpon thy meat offerings , and fatten thy burnt offerings surely ; and giue the thy hartes desire , and fullfill thy minde . That wee may sing out , vpon thy salvation , and in the NAME of our God ; put vp our coulours . Now I know the Eternall saveeth his anointed by the vertuous salvation of his right hand , and heareth him from the heavens of his Sanctuary . Som set their mindes on chariots , and som on horses , but wee make allwayes mention of the NAME , of our God the Eternall . They haue crouched and are fallen , but wee stand vp , and are yet remaining . The ETERNALL save the King , and heare vs when wee call . XXI . For the Cheeff , A Psalme of David . O ETERNALL , let the King reioyce in thy STRENGTH , and be very glad , for thy Salvation . Thou hast given him what his heart could wish , and denyed him nothing that his lips requested , Surely . Thou hast set before him many blessings , and hast put a crowne of fine gold vpon his head , and thou hast giuen him the life hee asked of thee : long dayes , everlasting and perpetuall . Great is his glory by thy Salvation , worship and honour thou hast layd vpon him : because thou puttest vpon him blessings perpetually , and makest him cheerfull before thee , and seing the King trusteth in the ETERNALL ; by the Grace of the moste High hee shall not bee mooved . Let thy hand finde out all thine Enimies : and thy right hand , them that hate thee . Sett them as a firy oven at the time of thy presence ; that the ETERNALL in his anger may devour them , and his fire consume them . Destroy their fruit , and let their seed fade away from among men , for intending euill against thee , and imagining mische●ff beyond their might . Set them as a butt , and vpon thy string , make ready against their facees . Be thou exalted , ô ETERNALL , in thy STRENGTH : that wee may sing out thy power ; and chaunt thy worthynes . XXII . For the Cheeff vpon Ajeleth Hashahar , A Psalme of David . MY God , my mighty God , why hast thou left mee , and art farre from my Salvation , considering my roaring ? My God , I cry all day , and thou answerest not , and all night , and haue no attendance : and thou the Holy one that inhabitest all the PRAYSES of Israel ; In thee our Fathers trusted , and thou reskuedst them , to thee they cryed and were delivered , in thee they trusted and were never abashed . But I am as a worm and not a man ; the skorn of men and the basest of all the people ; every one that seeth mee , mocketh mee ; and they lett passe with their lips , wagging their heads : Hee trusted in the ETERNALL , let him reskew him , let him deliver him , because hee hath delight in him . Because thou wast my creeping out of the belly , and my trust vpon my mothers brest , vpon thee was I cast from the bearing , and thou hast been my MIGHTY God from my Mothers womb : ô bee not thou farre from mee when my destresse is at hand , and there is none to help mee . Many mighty bulles of Bashan inviron mee about , they com with open mouthes vpon mee , like roaring and preying Lions ; My bones are fallen out of ioint , my hart is like molten wax in the midle of my bowells , and I am powered out like water , my virtue is as dry as a sheard , and my tong steeks to my iawes ; and thou puttest mee even in the dead dust . For a company of malitious doggs are come about mee , and like Lions teare mee hand and foot . They stand looking on mee , while I tell all my bones , they divide my clothes among them , and cast lotts for my garments ; but thou , ô ETERNALL , be not farre from mee , make haste to help mee , ô my MIGHTY-ONE : Deliver my life from the sword , and my solitary soul from the doggs , save mee from the Lions denn , and from the Vnicorns hornes receive mee ; I may declare thy Name to my Bretheren ; and in the midle of the congregation praise thee . All yee that feare the ETERNALL praise , yee him , yee that are of Iacobs SEED , glorifie him , and all yee the SEED of Israel stand in aw of him . For he doth not despise , nor disdain the MISERY of the afflicted , nor hideeth his face from him , but heareth him when hee cryeth vnto him . From thee , shall bee my Praise in the great Congregation , and I will pay my vows before them that feare him ; that the lowly ones may eat their fill , & they that seek him , praise the ETERNALL , that your harts may be refreshed perpetually . Let all the endes of the erth haue minde to com to the ETERNALL , and all families of the Hethen worship before thee . For all KINGDOM is the ETERNALLS , & hee rulleth the Nations . Let all the ashes of the erth worship and eat , and all that are going to dust , and they whose liues haue no refreshing , let them bowe before him . The SEED that serveth him , shall bee reconed the Generation of the LORD , which shall com and tell of his RIGHTEOVSNES , and shew to a people vnborn , what hee hath don . XXIII . A Psalme of David . THE ETERNALL is my sheaperd , I shall not want , he will fold me vpon the greene gresse , and leade me by the quyet waters , Hee will convert my minde , and guyde mee in the tracks of RIGHTEOVSNES , for his Names sake . Yea when I goe in the dim & dusky valley , I feare no ill , because thou art with me , and thy very rodd & thy leaning staff , thy comfort me . Hard by my tormenters thou furnishest a table before me . Thou anointest my head with oyle , and fillest my Cupp brim full , for goodnes and KINDENES have followed mee all dayes of my life , and I will contynwe in the House of the ETERNALL to my lives end . XXIV . A Psalme of David . THE earth is the ETERNALLS and all the implements thereof , the World and all that dwell therein are his , for the founded it vpon the Sea , and set it sure vpon the Ryvers , & who may come vp vnto his Hill or stand in his Holy place ? only Innocent hands and pure hearts , and such as doe not sett their mindes vpon vanitie , nor sweare deceitfu●ly . Such a on shall come , and receive the blessing of RIGHTEOVSNES from the ETERNALL , the God of their Salvation ; this is the Generation that looketh after him , Iacob is hee that seeketh thy face surely . Therefore open your cheeff gates , & set vp your mighty doores , that the KING of GLORY may com in . Who is the KING of GLORY ? even the ETERNALL that is strong and valiant , the ETERNALL the valiant warrier , open your cheeff gates , set vp your everlasting doores , that the KING of GLORY may com in . Who is this , that is KING of GLORY ? even the warlik ETER : he is KING of GLORY surely . XXV . Of David . O My God ETERNALL , vpon thee doe I set my minde , and in thee doe I trust , let mee not be abashed , and mine Enimies vaunt over mee , nor let any , that wait on thee , bee abashed , but let them be abashed that revolt without cause . Wise mee thy wayes ô ETERNALL , and teach mee thy pathes , train mee and instruct mee in thy truth , for thou art the GOD of my salvation , and I waite all wayes on thee . Remember thy wonted Mercies , and loving-kindenesses which have ever been , remember not my youthfull sinnes and transgressions , but remember mee according to thy LOVING-KINDENES , & for thy Goodnes sake , ô ETERNALL . The ETERNALL is very vpright , and will teach Sinners the way , hee will direct the Humble right , and make the Meek ones perfect in his way . All the WAYES of the ETERNALL are true LOVING KINDNES & FAITHFVLNES , for them that keep his Covenant and Testimonies , therefore ô ETER : for thy NAMES sake , pardon mine Iniquity that is so great , who so feareth the Eter : him will hee teach what way to chuse , that his minde may rest well at ease , & his seed inherit the land : the Etern : will tell his minde to them that feare him , for his covenant is to teach them . Mine eyes are allwayes towards the ETERNALL , that hee would take my feet out of the Net , ô look vpon mee , and haue Pitty on mee , for I am very miserable and desolat , bring mee out of my Destresses and Torments of my minde , which they have enlarged . Behold my Misery and Greeff , and forgive mee all my sinnes , see how many mine Enimies are , & what cruell hatred they haue to mee , ô keep my life and deliver mee , let mee not be abashed because I rely on thee , let SOVNDNES & VPRIGHTENES preserve mee , because I wait ernestly on thee , ô God deliver Israel from all his destresses . XXVI . Of David . IVDGE mee , ô ETERNALL , for I walk in mine INTEGRITY , and trust in the ETERNALL that I reel not ; Examine mee , ô ETERNALL , and proove mee , try my very reines and my hart , for thy Louing Kindenes , is before mee , and I walke in thy TRVTH , I cannot abide vain men , and com not with dissembling Hypocrites . I hate the Assembly of Naughty persons , I sit not with the Wicked , but wash cleane my handes , and am present about thine Altar , ô ETERNALL , with a thankfull voice , to ring out and declare thy wondrous worke . ô ETERNALL , I love thy House of Habitation , and Dwelling place of thy Glory . Reckon not my person among the Sinners , nor count thou my life among the liues of Bloody-men , in whose hands is Fornication , and whos right-hands are full of whoorish rewards . And I , that walke in mine INTEGRITY , haue pitty on mee and redeem mee , that my feet may stand in plaine ground , and I may blesse the ETERNALL in the Synagogues . XXVII . Of David . THE ETERNALL is my LIGHT and my salvation , I feare no body ; the ETERNALL is the Stay of my life , who should frighten mee ? when naughty men came against mee to devour mee , and my sore Enimies to eat mee vp : they stumbled and fell . If a camp of men pitch against mee , my HART shall not faint , if ware rise against mee , yet will I trust . Only ONE THING I ask of the ETERNALL , which I hartily desire , That I might bide all my life in the House of the ETERNALL , to behold the sweet delights of the ETERNALL , and contemplate in his Temple . That hee will keepe mee close in his Tabernacle in the euill time , and hide mee safe in his Tent , and in the Rock take mee vp , and now advaunce mee over all mine Enimyes that are round about mee , that I may sacrifice sacrifices of Triumph in his Tabernacle , and sing & PRAYSE the ETERNALL . Heare , ô ETERNALL , my CRY I make vnto thee , and consider mee , and pitty mee . Thine ( ô ETERN : ) my Minde sayth , Seek yee my face , thy face , ô ETERN : wil I seek , hide not thy face from mee , turn not away thy Servant , nor be angry with mee , for thou art mine only help , thou art the GOD of my Salvation , doe not leave mee , nor forsake mee . And though my Father and Mother forsake mee : let the ETERN : take mee vp . Teach mee thy WAYES , ô ETERN : and lead mee a right course , because of mine Extortors , let mee not be in the will of mine Oppressors , when false witnesses rise against mee ; and violence breatheth out . Certainly I trust to see the GOODNES of the ETERN : before I dye ; Therefore waite thou on the ETERN : waite valiantly on the ETERNALL , and hee will strengthen your hart . XXVIII . Of David . TO thee , ô ETERNALL , did I CRY : Heare the voice of my SVPPLICATION , ô my ROCK , vvhen I shout vnto thee , and hold vp my hands at thy holly Oracle , and not be deaff tovvards mee ; lesse at thy Silence , I be like one going to his Grave . I cryed , dravv mee not vvith vvicked and mischeevous men , that speake peaceably and freendly vvith their Neighbours , and haue malice in their hartes . I CRYED , Giue such according to their Labours , and according to their VVicked inventions , giue them according to their ovvne hand vvorks , and cast them a full Revvard . And seeing they vnderstand not the DEEDS of the ETERN : nor the VVORK of his handes : let him destroy them vvholy and not build them vp . Bl●ssed be the ETERNALL , he hath hard the VOICE of my SVPPLICATION . The ETERNALL my Strength and my Defence , in whom my hart trusteth , and I am holpen , and my hart is cheered , and with my song will I prayse him ; the ETER : that is the Strength of his people , and strong Saluation of his Annointed : ô Saue thy people , and blesse thine Inheritance , and feed them , and succour them for ever . XXIX . A Psalme of David . YEeld vnto the ETE : yee GODLY-ONES , yeeld vnto the ETERN : all GLORY and STRENGTH . Yeeld GLORY vnto the Name of the ETERN : and worship him with holly Decency . The VOICE of the ETER : is on the waters , the God of GLORY thund●eth on the great waters , his VOICE is with MIGHT and MAIESTY . The VOICE of the ETERNALL breaketh the Ceders , the ETERNALL shivereth the Ceders of Libanon , and maketh them daunce like a Calf , and all Libanon and Shirion like a Vnicorns colt , the VOICE of the ETERNALL cutteth , with firy flames , the VOICE of the ETERN : punisheth the Wildernes , the VOICE of the ETERNALL punisheth the great Desert of Cadesh . The VOICE of the ETERNALL makeeth the Forests bare , and tormenteth the deer , and all that ever bee sayeth in his Temple is GLORYOVS . The ETERNALL sitteth on the flood , the ETERNALL abideth KING for ever , the ETE : giveth his People STRENGTH and blesseth them with PEACE . XXX . A Psalme Song of the Didication of the House of David . I Will Extoll thee , ô ETERNALL , for thou hast raised mee , and hast not suffered my foes to triumph at mee ; ô ETERNALL my God , I shouted vnto thee for help , and thou didst heale mee . ô ETERNALL , thou hast taken mee out of the Skull , thou hast revived mee , that I should not goe down to the Pitt . Chaunt to the ETERN : ô yee his Saintes , and Celebrate his Holly REMEMBRANCE . For hee is but a moument in his anger , and in his loving favour , is LIFE . At night hee will suffer weeping , but on the Morrow they shall sing out for ioy . As I thought when I was at ease , I should never be moved , ô ETERNALL in thy Goodwill hadst setled my hill so fast : thou turnedst away thy face , & I was stroken amazed . Then I CRYED vnto the , ô ETERN : and besought the ETERNALL , vvhat availeth my blood if I goe dovvne into the Pitt . Shall the dust confesse thee ? shall the dust declare thy TRVTHE ? hear mee , ô ETERNALL , and have pitty on mee , & be thou my helper , turn my mourning to daunceing , take of my sack cloth , & gird Gladnes about mee , that GLORY may chaunt thee out and never cease , and I may thank thee , ô ETERNALL my God for ever . XXXI . For the Cheeff , A Psalme of David . ON thee , ô ETERNALL , doe I relye , let mee never be abashed , rescue mee by thy RIGHTEOVSNES , harken to mee , and deliver mee with speed , be thou my Strong-hold , and house of Munitions to save mee , because thou art my ROCK and GVARISON , also for thy NAMES sake lead mee and guide mee , bring mee out of the Net , which they haue privily layd to catch mee , because thou art my Strength . I put my life in thy hands , redeem thou mee , ô ETERNALL , ransom mee , ô God of TRVTH . I hate all such as obserue false-vanities , I trust onely in the ETERN : I reioyce mightily of thy LOVEING KINDENES , because thou hast seen my Misery , and knovvn my Destresses ; and hast not shut mee vp in mine Enimyes handes , but hast set my feet at liberty . Have pitty on mee , ô ETER : for I am in great DETRESS , mine eyes are decayed , my very soul & my bovvels vvithin mee , are consumed , vvith Greeff , for my life is spent in Sorrovv , and my yeers in Sighing , my Bones are consumed , and all my Strength is gon through mine Iniquity , I am revileed of my Besiegers , and my next Neighbours skorn mee out of measure , mine Acquaintance are afrayed of mee , and vvhen they see mee in the Street ; flye from mee , I am clean out of their minde , and quite forgotten , like a dead man , and like a broken vessel good for Nothing . For I heare a horrible report of many , and of their Plotting together against mee , and hovv they deuise to take avvay my life , but I put my trust vpon thee , ô ETERN : I say still , thou art my GOD , my time is in thy hand , deliver mee from mine Enimyes and Persecutors , shew thy Countenance vpon thy Servant , and saue mee with thy LOVEING KINDENES . O ETERN : let mee not be abashed of calling vpon thee , let the Wicked be abashed , and hold their tonges in the ground , and all false lips that speak arrogantly , proudly and spitefully against the IVST : be made dumb . Wonderfull great ( in the sight of men ) is thy Goodnes , which thou layest vp for them that feare thee , and doest for them that put their trust in thee ; Thou hideest them in the secret Chamber of thy Presence from Combrous men , and keepest them close in thy Tabernacle from quarellings tonges . Blessed be the ETERNALL , for hee hath shewed mee wonderfull KINDENES in a strict Citty , when I foolishly thought I was clean cutt off from thy sight : yet thou hardest the voice of my Supplication , as I shouted vnto thee . Loue yee the ETERNALL all his Holly-ones , for the ETERN : preserveth the FAITHFVLL , and rewardeth the proud doer in abundance . Therfore , all yee that waite for the ETERN : be of good cheere , and hee will strengthen your hartes . XXXII . A Mascil or Vers of David . HAPPY is the man whos Trespasse is forgiuen , and his Sinn concealed , whom the ETERNALL chargeth not with Iniquity , and in whos minde is no deceipt , I CRYED dayly , till I was hoarse and my bones Withered , for thy hand was heavy vpon mee , and my Moisture is overthrouwn as with a great Sommers drought surely . I shewed thee my Sinnes and concealed not mine Iniquities , I meant to confesse my Sinnes vnto the ETERNALL , and thou forgavest the Iniquity , and my Sinne surely . Therefore , let every Godly-One pray vnto thee , when thou mayest be found ; lesse when Trobles arise , they cannot com at him . ô thou , that art my Skonse and Hideing-place , preserve mee from Destresse , rescue them that CRY and gard mee su●ely . I vvill vvise thee , and teach thee vvhat VVAY to goe , and vvill tend on thee vvith mine eyes , if yee be not like a Horse and Asse voyd of all vnderstanding , to be tyed vvith bitts in their mouthes , and bridles on their heads to keep them from thee . For the Sorrowes of the Wi●ked are great and many , but he that TRVSTETH in the ETERNALL , GRACE and LOVEING-KINDENES shall environ him . Now reioyce and be glad in the ETERNALL , yee IVST-ONES , and T●iumph all yee that be of an vpright minde . XXXIII . TRIVMPH in the ETERNALL all yee that be IVST for the PRAYSE of Vpright men is goodly , sing to the ETERNALL with the Harp , play vnto him with ten-stringed Viols , sing a New song vnto him , and play your loudest Musicque . For the WORD of the ETERNALL is moste certain , and all his WORKES are sure . The ETERNALL loveth IVSTICE , and RIGHTE : and all the erth is full of his GRACIOVS GOODNES . By the VVORD of the ETERNALL the Heavens vvere made , and by his Breth , all their Host , he heaped vp the vvaters of the Sea , and layed vp the bottomlesse Deeps in Treasures . Stand in aw of the ETERNALL , and feare him all people of the world , for what hee sayth , that shall bee , and what soever hee Appointeth , that shall stand . The ETERNALL frustrateth the counsell of the Hethen , and bringeth the peoples devises to nothing . But the Counsel of the ETERNALL stande●h for ever , and his Devises indure still ; from one age to another , and happy is the Nation that hath the ETERNALL their GOD , and the People whom hee chuse●h for his Inheritance . The ETERNALL LOOKETH out of Heaven from his dwe●ling Seat , vpon all the Children of men that dwell in the world , hee that both formed their hartes , and is cunning in all their WORKES : and Loe , A King is not saved by the greatnes of his Army , nor a Strong-man deliuered by his great strength . A Horse is a vain thing for Salvation , and cannot free for all his great Might . But the EYE of the ETERNALL is vpon them that feare him , and vvait for his LOVING-KINDENES : To deliuer them from Death and releeve them in Famine . Our Soul waiteth for ●he ETERN : hee is our Help and Shield of Defence , and because our Hart is delighted in him , and our whole TRVST is in his holly NAME : let thy mercy , ô ETERNALL , be vpon vs as our hope is in thee . XXXIV . A Psalme of David , vpon his changing of his Behaviour , before Abimelek ( or Achish ) King of Gath , then when hee banished him & hee went his way . I Will ever thank the ETERN : and allways PRAIS him with my mouth , I my selfe will glory in him , that the Lowly may be glad to heare it , come magnify the ETERN : with mee , let vs extoll his NAME together , for I sought out for the ETERN : and hee answered mee , and deliuered mee from all my Terrors . Therefore let them look cheerfully vpon him , and not be ashamed , for this poore oppressed one in his affliction CRYED : and the ETERN : hard him , and saved him out of all his Destresses . The Angel of the ETERN : will pitch about them that FEAR him , and release them . Now consider and mark how GOOD the ETERNALL is , and how HAPPY is the MAN that relyeth on him . Feare the ETERNALL all his Saintes , For they shall vvant nothing that FEARE him , the Lions vvhelps shall goe lean for vvant of meat , and pine avvay for hunger : but they that SEEK the ETERN : shall not vvant any thing that is good . Com then my Children , and harken to mee , and lett mee TEACH you the FEARE of the ETERNALL . If you loue to liue long , and loue to see many dayes : Keep your Tonges from ill communication , and your lips from speaking Deceipt , medle vvith nothing that is ill , but doe that vvhich is good , seek after Peace and pursue it . For the ETERN : looketh tenderly to the IVST , and hath a tender eare to their shouting . VVhen they Crye : hee heereth them , and deliuereth them from all their Destresses . But hee will look angry toward them that doe ill ; and will cutt off their Remembrance out of the Earth . The ETERN : is neer to them that be broken-harted , and will save them of oppressed mindes , for many are the Woes of the IVST-ONE , but the ETER : will deliuer him from them all , and will keep him that not a bone of him shall be broken . Som Mischeeff shall make an end of the Wicked and slay him , and they that hate the IVST shall waste away , but the ETERNALL will redeem his Servants life , and none that relye on him shall be waste-ed XXXV . Of DAVID . DOE thou maintaine my Quarell , ô ETERNALL , and fight thou my Battell , ô take vp thy Shield and Buckler , and com and help mee , draw out thy Speare and arme thee to meet my Pursuers . Say to my life , I will be thy SALVATION . Let them be ashamed that seek my life ; and retire with sharp reproche , that thinke mee ill , and be like dust before the winde , and the Angel of the ETERN : driveing them , let their WAY be in dark and slippery Place-es , and the Angel of the ETERN : to pursue them at the heeles . Because they haue hid a Net in the Pitt for mee , vndeserved , and vndermined for my Life without a Cause : Bring a RVINE on them that they be not ware of , and let their owne Net , that they have layed ; take themselues , and by it let them fall into the same Ruine . So my Soul shall be glad and reioyce in the SALVATION of the ETERNALL . All my bones shall cōfesse , There is none like thee , ô ETERNALL , vvhich deliverest the oppressed from him that is to strong for him , and the Poore Afflicted vvrech from him that vvould spoile him . False Witnesses arose , such as I knew not , saluteed mee , to requite mee Euill for Good , and take away my life . When they were sick , I wore fackcloth , & punished my body with fasting , but my Prayers returned again vpon mine owne bossome , I was as sory for them , as for my freend , or my Brother , I went wailing for them , and mourned as for my Mother , yet they are mery together at my halting . The vile people are gathered against mee er I am ware , and never rest tearing of mee , while the Slaves derideing mee gnash their teeth vpon mee , ô LORD , thou markest it well , deliuer my Deere Soul out of their Daungers , and saue mee from thos Lions whelps , & I will thank thee in the great Congregation and Praise thee among a number of people . Let not them that are mine Enimies for nothing , and hate mee without a cause : LAVGH and WINK at mee , for they desire no peace with any quiet people in their talke , but still devise Coussening talk and deceiptfull words against them . They com against mee with wide mouthes SAYEING , Oh , Oh , ah Sirr ho , wee saw it . Thou seest , ô ETERN : and be not thou silent , nor be away from mee , ô my Lord. Awake and arise , ô my LORD GOD , to IVDGE my Quarell , and Iudge mee according to thy IVSTICE , ô ETERN : my GOD , and let them not reioyce and LAVGH at mee , let them not SAYE in their mindes , Ho wee haue our desire , we haue devoured him . But let them be ashamed , and confounded that are glad of my hurt , and weare shame and Ignominy for euer that reare themselues against mee , and let them be mery and Triumph for ay ●hat wish my RIGHTEOVSNES , and allwayes SAY : The ETERNALL be magnified for delighting in the Peace of his Seruant . And my Tonge shall tell out thy IVSTICE , and thy PRAISE for euer . XXXVI . For the Cheeff : Of DAVID the Servant of the ETERNALL . IN my minde , the TRESPASSE of the Wicked doth shew , there is no feare of GOD before him . Because he thinketh to make light vnto him , his moste haynous iniquity , for all his vvords are Greeff and Deceit , and hee hath left lerning to doe vvell , hee deviseth Greeff vpon his Bed , hee persisteth vpon the VVAY that is not good , and vvill not leaue that vvhich is euill . O ETERNALL , great is thy LOVEING-KINDENES in the Heavens , and thy TRVTHE even to the Cloudes , thine vpright IVSTISE is of a mighty highth , and thy IVDGEMENTS a●e of a great Depth . For thou , ô ETERNALL , sauest both man and beast . O GOD hovv Pretious is thy LOVING-KINDENES , vvhen all human men are safe vnder the Shadovv of thy vvings ? VVhich are refreshed vvith the fat of thy House , and of the vvater thou giuest them of thy Plesant Riuer . For with thee , there is a quick wellspring of life , and by thy LIGHTE doe wee see Lighte . ô Draw vp KINDENES for them that know thee , and RIGHTE-DIRECTION for them that are of an VPRIGHTE MINDE . Let not the Foot of Pride cary mee avvay , nor the vvicked Hand leade mee astray : vvher the VVORKERS of Greeff doe fall and are dovvn , and cannot rise no more . XXXVII . By DAVID . CHAFE thou not at Naughty men , and spite not WRONG-DOERS , for they shall be soon cut off like Grasse , and wither like a green blade . Feed thou vpon the TRVTH , doe Good , and TRVST in the ETERN : and inhabit the earth . Set thy whole delight vpon the ET : and hee will giue thee thy hartes desire , committ thy course vpon the ET : & trust wholely vpō him , and hee will bring it to passe , & bring thee foorth thy righteous Iudgmēt , as cleer as the light at none . Therefore RELYE thou on the ETERNALL , and haue Patience in him , and chafe not when the MISCHEVOVS man doth prosper in his course , but forbeare from Anger , and forgoe thy Choler . Chafe not when hee thriveth onely by doeing of Euill , for NAVGHTY men shall be cutt off , & they that WAIT for the ETERNALL , shall Inherit the Earth , and haue their roome . For after a little while , the WICKED will be gon , and his place to seeking , and the Poore Meek people shall haue the Inheritance of the Land , and peace enough to delight them . The WICKED man inventeth MISCHEEFF against the IVST , and skrasheth his teeth vpon him for malice , but the LORD LAVGHETH at him , for he see-eth his Time is come . The VVICKED dravv their Svvordes , and bend their bovves to kill an slay the Poore , and all them of an vprighte Course . But their Swords shall peerce their owne hartes , and their bowes be broken in peeces . A little of the IVST-Mans is better , then the Abundance of welth of many wicked men , for the Armes of the VVICKED shall be broken , but the ETERNALL will hold vp the IVST . The ETERNALL will teach the dayes of PERFECT MEN , and that their Inheritance shall last for ever . They shall not be abashed in any hard time , & in Time of dearth they shall haue enough . But the VVICKED shall perish , and the VNGODLY ( for all their Honour and Advauncement ) shall vanish , and all consume as in smoke . The VVICKED vvill borrovv , & not pay again , but the IVST man hath Pitty and bestoweth , for the BLESSED of the ETERNALL shall inioye the Land , and the CVRSED shall be cutt off . All mans Proceedings are from the ETERNALL , and they are sure , if hee delighteeth in them . For hee will not let them fall , but the ETERNALL will stay them vp in his hand . I haue been yong , and now am gon an old man , yet in all my Time , I neuer saw the IVST MAN destitute , with his seed begging bread , but allwayes mercifull and lending , and his children blessed . Therfore shunn EVILL , and doe that which is GOOD , and you shall ABIDE for ever , for the ETERNALL loveth RIGHTE , and his Saintes hee will not forsake . They shall ever be preserued , but , The Children of the WICKED shall be cutt off . The IVST shall INHERIT the Earth , and DWELL everlastingly vpon it , for the JVST man will talke wisely , and speak that which is Righte , and haue the LAW of GOD in his minde , that his steps slip not . The WICKED watcheth and seeketh to kill the JVST , but the ETERNALL will not leaue him in his hand , nor condemn him when he is to bee JVDGED . If thou wilt Wait vpon the ETERNALL , and observe his WAY , he will exalt the to the Inheritance of the Land , and thou shalt see the WICKED cutt off . I haue seen the WICKED lusty , and shooting vp like a green graff : but Loe , hee is passed by and gon , and if I seek him he is not to be found . MARK and consider the PLAINE and VPRIGHTE MANS end is Peace , and the Posterity of the WICKED is cutt off , and also the TRESPASSERS they themselues are destroyed . The SALVATION of the IVST is from the ETERNALL , that is their whole CONFIDENCE in Time of Destresse , and the ETER : will rescue them , hee will rescue them from the WICKED , and will SAVE them , because they relye vp on him . XXXVIII . A Psalme of DAVID for a Memoriall . O ETERN : reproove mee not in thy chafe , nor CORRECT mee in thy Choler , for thine Atrowes are lighted on mee , & thy hand lyeth vpon mee . I haue no helth in my flesh , nor any ease in my bones , thou rage-est so for my SINNE . For mine Iniquities are gon vpon my head , like a hevy burden , more then I can carry , my blovves are putrified , and my Stripes stink for my folly , I stoop and goe vvonderfull crooked , I goe all day mourning , my Loynes are full of Burning , and I haue ●oe helth in my flesh . I am much bruseed and vveakned , I roare vvith the vvorying of my hart , O LORD thou knovvest my Desire , and my sighings are before thee , my hart is in Paine , my Strength is gon , mine eyes are spent , and mine eyesighte gon from mee . My Lovers and my Freends vvill not com nigh my Plague , & my Kinsmen stand a farre off . VVhile they that seek my life , and serch my hurt , speak corrupt vvords to intrap mee , and talk nothing but Deceipt all the Day , and I like a dumb body that could not speak , so vvas I like a man that heareth not , and like one that could not rebuke . Thou shalt CONSIDER and ANSWER for mee , ô LORD my GOD , for I WAITE for thee , ô ETERN : lesse they LAVGH at mee for what I say , and MAGNIFY themselues over mee , when my foot slippeth . For I was ready to halt , and my greeff is euer before mee . When I shew mine Iniquity , and am sory for my Sinn . For they that are Enimies of my Life , are mighty and many , and they that hate mee wrongfully are wonderfully increased . They are against mee , because I follow that which is God , paying mee EVILL for GOOD . Forsake mee not , ô ETER : bee not farre from mee , ô my GOD my LORD & my SALVATION , make haste to help mee . XXXIX . For the Cheeff , for Ieduthun : A Psalme of DAVID . I Thought , I would look to my WAY , for Sinning with my tonge , and to bridle my Mouth before the WICKED . Therfore I became stark Dumb , and forbore from speaking that which was GOOD , and that greeved mee more . And I CHAFED in my minde , and my Thoughts weare on fire , so I SPAKE and SAYED , ô ETERNALL , shew mee when my end shall bee , and the MESVRE of my DAYES , I may know , how long I shall stay . I know thou hast made all my dayes but a HANDFVLL , and my whole Age is Nothing before thee , for Surely every mans ABIDEING is nothing , but Meer Vanity . Every man is much troubled , and caryed away with a vain Fansy , to beap vp ; and knoweth not who shall Spend it : but my only HOPE and WAITING is for thee , O LORD . Deliver mee from all my Trespasses , & make mee not weare the Reproche of the Filthy-fooles , for I was still Silent , & held my Tonge because it was thy Dooing . O take away thy SCOVRGE from my back , I am quite consumed with the Tentation of thy hand . VVhen thou CORRECTEST a man vvith Rebukes for Iniquity , thou meltest avvay his Lovelynes like a Moth , for Surely every man is fraile VANITY . Heare my PRAYER , ô ETERNALL , and my Shouteing vnto thee , hearken vnto my teares and be not deaff , for J am a STRANGER vvith thee , and a So JOURNER as my Fathers vvere . ô Spare mee , and deale gentlely vvith mee , J may be somvvhat refreshed before J goe hence quite , and com no more . XL. For the Cheeff , A Psalme of David . I Continued my WAITING on the ETER : and at last hee turned to mee , and hard my SOVTEING . And took mee out of a horrible Pitt , out of Dirt and mire , and gaue mee sure footing , and sett my feet on a Rock , and put a NEVV SONG in my mouth : A PRAYSE to our GOD , many savv it and FEARED , and TRVSTED in the ETERNALL . HAPPY is the man that makeeth the ETERNALL his TRVST , and carreeth not for Mockers , nor such as dravv to Falshood . Thy mervilous FEASTS , ô my GOD ETER : vvhich thou hast don for vs are many , and no man can reckon them vnto thee , if I should assay to declare them : they are to many to tell . Sacrificees and Meat offerings thou carest not for , ( THOV HAST MADE MEE EARES TO HEARE . ) Neither burnt offerings nor Sinn offerings requireest thou . Then SAYED I , Loe , heer I am , in the open book , plainely , it is VVRITTEN of mee , for I haue pleasure to doe thy vvill , ô my GOD , and in my Belly is thy LAVV , J PREACH RIGHTEOVSNES in the Great Congregation , and J shut not my Lips , ô ETERN : thou knovvest . I conceal not thy RIGHTEOVSNES in my minde , J declare thy FAITHFVLLNES & Thy SALVATION , I hide not thy Lo-KINDNES , I declare thy TRVTH to the Great Congregation . Therfore , O ETERNALL , shut not thou thy mercyes from mee , but let thy LOVEING KINDNES and thy TRVTHE allwayes preserve mee , for Innumerable Evills are come vpon mee , and mine Iniquityes haue overtaken mee , and I cannot SEE , they are more then the Haires of my Head , and my Hart fayleth . Be so GOOD as to deliuer mee , O ETERNALL , O ETERNALL , help mee with Speed , and let them be ashamed and confounded , that goe about to Shorten my Life , and be turned back with Reproche , that would hurt mee , let them be Stund with their Shame that SAY , ô Sir , ô Sir. That all that SEEK thee , and Love thy SALVATION ; may be glad , and reioyce in thee , and SAY allwayes : Great be the ETERNALL . O my LORD , think on mee that am vvreched and Needy , thou that art my help and Rescuer , and tary not , O my GOD. XLI . For the Cheeff : A Psalme of DAVID . HAPPY is hee that well considereth the Poor and Empty man , The ETERNALL vvill dravv him out , in Time of Evill , the ETERNALL vvill keep him , and refresh him , and hee shall be BLESSED in all the Land ▪ thou vvilt not put him in his Enimyes vvill ; the ETERNALL vvill Souccour him , vvhen hee is vveak and feeble on his bed , & thou vvilt make his Lodgeing in his Sicknes . I SAY , ô ETERNALL , have thou Pitty on mee , and heal my Soul , for I have Sinned against thee . Mine Enimyes , when I am ill , SAY , when will hee dye , and his Name perish ? and if he comes to see mee , all his TALK is COVNTERFET ; for in his hart hee thinketh to molest him , and as soon as hee is gon out , hee telleth it abroad , besides ; all my Haters WHISPER against mee , and DEVISE against mee , while I am in Misery : Some discommodity oppresse him , that hee may never rise again , when hee is down . Yea my Peaceable FREEND that I trusted , and that eat of my meat , Kicked at mee . But ô ETERNALL , haue thou Pitty on me , and RAISE mee again , and I shall acquite them . Hereby I KNOW , thou hast pleasure in mee , For mine Enimyes doe not Triumph over mee , thou mainteinest mee in mine VPRIGHTENES , and settest mee before thee for ever . Blessed be the ETERNALL the GOD of Israel , from Everlasting to Everlasting ; indeed and indeed . THE SECOND BOOK . XLII . For the Cheeff : A Mascil of the Sonnes of Corah . AS the hunted Deer doth LONGE for water-streames : so doth my Soule longe for thee , ô GOD. My Soule is a thirst for GOD , to com to the LIVING GOD , and appeer before GOD. My Teares are all my Meat day and night , while they SAY still vnto mee , Where is thy GOD ? When I think on these things , I euen power out my SOVLE for greeff for mee ; Seing I went out with them , and conveyed them , and protected them , euen to the house of GOD , with great Triumph and Thanksgiuing , and a solemne feast . Be not abase-ed and troubled for mee , ô my SOVLE , waite thou on GOD , for I will yet confesse the SALVATION of his presence . ô GOD , my SOVLE is abased for mee , wherefor I think on thee from thee Hills of Hermon , & from the Hill Mizaar in the Land of Iarden . Thy Chanells call all the Deeps together , all thy Breaches and Waves goe over mee . Let the ETERN : send his LOVE : - KINDNES by day , and in the nighte , let his SONG be with mee A PRAYER to the GOD of my Life . I SAY to the Almighty , my Rock : VVhy hast thou forgotten mee ? vvhy goe I mourning by the oppression of the Enimye ? With a Slaughter in my bones doe my Besiegers reproch mee , while thy SAYE still , VVhere is thy GOD ? Be not abaseed and troubled for mee , ô my Soule , waite thou on GOD , for I vvill yet confesse him , my present SALVATION and my GOD. XLIII . PLEAD thou my Quarell , ô God , & Shift mee from an vnkinde Nation , rescue mee from deceiptfull and vniust men . ô GOD of my Strength , put not thou mee back , why goe I mourning by the oppression of the Enimy ? Send thy LIGHTE & thy TRVTHE to Guide and Lead mee , and bring mee to thy Holly Hill , and into thy Tabernacles ; and that I may com to the Altar of GOD ; to GOD the Ioy of my Mirth , and Thank thee vpon the Harp , ô GOD , my GOD. Be not abased and troubled for mee , ô my SOVLE , vvaite thou on GOD , for I vvill yet confesse him on my present SALVATION and my GOD. XLIV . For the Cheeff of the Sonnes of Corah : A Mascil . O GOD , our Eeares haue hard it , and our Fathers haue told vs , of the WORKES thou wroughtest in their dayes , and in the dayes before . Thou , vvith thy hand didest dispossesse the Heathen and plantedst THEM ; and didest deale hardly vvith the Nations , and didest setle THEM . For not by their ovvn svvord , did they possesse the Land , neither did their ovvn Arme save them : but thy Righte hand and thine Arme , and the LIGHT of thy COVNTENANCE , did it ; because thou didst accept of them . O thou the same GOD , my KING , send IACOB deliuerances , that by thee wee may push down our Besiegers , & by thy NAME trample vpon our Insurrectors ( for I trust not in mine own bow , and mine owne sword , that they should saue mee ) that when thou hast saued vs from our Besiegers , and abashed our foes : Wee may Glorifye GOD dayly , and set out thy NAME for euer surely . Yea , thou drawest back and refuseest to goe foorth with our Armyes , and shamest vs , thou make-est vs turn back from the Besieger , so that our foes suppresse them , thou hast skatered vs among the Hethen , and giuen vs among them , like sheep for their meat , thou hast sold thy people , and hast noe welth for them , and art neuer the richer for their price . Thou hast set vs a Reproche to our Neighbours , and a Derision and a Mocking-stock to them round about vs , thou fettest vs a Byword among the Hethen , and a Beckoning among the Nations , my Shame is dayly before mee , and Bashfullnes all over my face , for the VOICE of the Reprochefull and Revileing spitefull Enimye : Yet for all this , wee haue not forgotten thee , nor been false in thy Covenant . For all thou hast beaten vs down into the place of Dragons , and heiled vs ouer in Obscurity : our Minde is not gon back , nor our Steps turned out of thy pathes . If wee haue forgotten the NAME of our GOD , and spred our palmes vnto a strange GOD : will not GOD finde it out , seeing hee knoweth the secrets of the hart ? for , for thee are , wee dayly killed , and counted as slaine sheep . Awake and arise , ô LORD , doe not sleep and draw back continually : ô doe not hide thy face , forget not our misery and oppression , when our Soule is humbled to the dust , and our Belly cleevs to the ground . Stand vp a HELP for vs , and redeem vs for thy LOVEING KINDENES fake . XLV . For the Cheeff , vpon the Lillyes , or Lira , of the Sonnes of Corah : A Mascil , A Loue-song . MY Hart aboundeth with a good matter , and I will tell my WORKE of the King , and my tonge shall be as swift as the Pen of any Scribe . Thou art fayrer then any Human vvight , thy Lipes are povvred full of Grace , therfore thy GOD hath blessed thee for euer . Gird on thy Svvord vpon thy thigh like a valiant man , gird on thy VVorship and thine Honour . Ride thou vpon the VVord of Truth and meek Iustice , & increase thine honour : & thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things . For by thy sharp Arrovvs in the hart of the Kings Enimyes , the people shall fall dovvn vnder thee . Evermore thy THRONE is GOD , and the Septer of VPRIGHTNES , is the Septer of thy KINGDOM . Thou lovest RIGHTEOVSNES , and hate-est WICKEDNES , therfor thine own GOD hath annoynted thee with the Oyle of Ioy above thy fellows . The edges of all thy Garments , don with Myrrh and Aloes , out of the Ivory closets of Minni doe delighte thee . Kings Daughters are in thy dignityes , and at thy right hand doth stand thy Bedfellow , all in fine gold of Ophir . O Daughter hearken well , consider and turne thine Eare , and forget thy Nation and thy Fathers House : & the King shall be in Love with thy Bewty . & be thou Lowly to him ( for hee is thy Lord ) & the rich men of Tyre shal intreat thee with Presents . The Kings Daughter is moste Glorious vvithin : vvith her clothes of golden Imbrodery of Needlevvork , shall shee be brought to the King , after her , the virgines that be her companions shal be brought vnto thee ; vvith ioy & Mirth shall they be brought flovving into the Kings Court. In steed of thy Fathers thou shalt haue sonnes , to set Princees in all Countryes . Therfore I will make thy Name a Memoriall in all Generations , for the people to Publish & confesse thee for evermore . XLVI . A Song for the Cheeff of the Sonnes of Corah , vpon Alamoth . GOD is our stronge RELYE & ready Helpe in distresses : Therfore wee fear not , at the CHANGE of the erth : At the mooveing of Mountaines into the midle of the Sea , at the Rorering and boyling of the VVaters , nor at the Shakeing of Mountaines vvith the Pride thereof Surely . His holly chanells doe cheer the Citty of GOD , and delighterh the Dwellings of the HIGHE . GOD is in the middest of it , it can not be stirred , GOD will help it betimes , before the morninge springs . The Hethen raged , and the Kingdomes weare in a commotion : Hee vttered his VOICE and the Earth melted . The warlike ET : is with vs , the GOD of Iacob is our RELEEF surely . Com and behold the miraculous ACTS of the ETERN : what Desolations hee hath made in the earth . Ceasing tho wars vnto the end of the erth that Shivereth the bowes , and cutteth the speares in peeces , and burneth the chariots ìn the fire . Hold your handes & know , that I am GOD and will be exalted in all Nations of the worlde : The warlike ETERNALL is with vs , the GOD of Iacob is our RELEEFF surely . XLVII . A Psalm for the Cheeff , of the Sonnes of Corah . ALL people , clap your handes , triumph vnto GOD with a loude voice , for the ETERN : is a dread SOVERAIGNE , and a great KINGE over all the earth . Hee hath subdued Diverse people vnder vs , and Nations vnder our feet , and chose vs our INHERITANCE the very Pride of Iacob surely . GOD the ET : is gon vp with the shrill sound of the Trumpet . ô sing Psalmes to GOD , ô sing Psalmes to our KING , because GOD is KING of all the Earth ; sing a MASCIL Palme . GOD SITTETH vpon his holly Throne , and Raigneeth over the Heathen , the Principall people are gathered together , but because the DEFENSES of the earth are GODES : The People of Abrahams GOD is much preferred . XLVIII . A Psalm-Song by the Sonnes of Corah . GREAT is the ETERNALL in the CITTY of our GOD , & his Holly HILL very renowmed , Mount Sion , the Citty of the great KING , on the North side , standing faire and lofty , the Ioy of all the earth . GOD is certainly her DEFENSE in her Battelments . For , behold , VVhen Kings vvere assembled , they passed by at once , vvhen they Savv , they mervilled , they vver terrifyed and astonied , ther a trembling took them , and a Paine as of a vvoman in travaile of child , vvith an East vvinde thou brakest the Ships of TarShish . According as , wee have heard and SEEN in the Citty of our GOD the warlike ETERNALL , GOD will establish it for ever surely : Wee think thy LOVEING KINDNES is with in thy Temple . ô GOD thy NAME and thy PRAYSE is over the endes of the worlde , for thy Righte hand is full of IVSTICE . Let Mount Sion reioyce , and all the Townes of Iudah be glad for thy JVDGEMENTS . Goe round about Sion , and compasse it , and tell her Towers , think vpon her Trenches , consider her Platformes , that you may tell it to another Generation , for this shall be our ONELY GOD for evermore , Hee hath brought vs over Death . XLIX . For the Cheeff : of the Sonnes of Corah , A Psalme . HEARKEN hither , all yee Nations , and hear this , all yee that inhabit the Continent , Every Human wighte aswell rich as poore : my mouth shall speak WISDOM , and my hart think of VNDERSTANDING , I will turn mine eares to a PARABLE , and open my RIDLE vpon the Harp. VVhy should I FEAR in dayes of Misery , vvhen the Iniquity of my heeles is round about mee ? Men trust in their vvelth , and glory in their great riches . no man shall redeeme his Brother , nor giue a price to God for him , ( the Redemption of their liues is so deer ) that hee should stay for ever , and liue continually and and not see the Pitt . Hee see-eth , that VVisemen dye , and that Bruteish Sots doe perish together : and leave their vvelth to others . They think theire Houses shall indure for ever , and their Dvvellings for all Generations , and call them by their Names vpon their Landes : but Man lodge-eth not in Honour , and is ouercom like vnto Dumb Beastes . This their VVAY is a Sottery to them , and they that com after them vvill vvellcom it vvith their mouthes Surely . They shall lye like Sheep in the Pitt , Death shall devoure them , & straightvvay they shall haue Dominion over them : And the Pitt shall vveare out their shape as soone as they be from their dvvelling house , in it . But GOD vvill redeem my life from the Brinck of hell , because hee hath accepted mee surely . FEARE not , when a man goeth rich , and the Glory of his house groweth great ; for hee shall take nothing in his death ; nor shall his Glory descend after him . Because hee made much of himselfe in his Life ; and men did set thee out , because it went well with thee : thou shallt enter into the Generation of his Fathers , that Never shall see Lighte more , till Everlasting . Men in Honour vvithout VNDERSTANDING : perish like vnto dumbe Beastes , and there is noe talk of them . L. A Psalm of Asaph . THE most mighty GOD , the ETERNALL hath SPOKEN and called , the world from the East even to the West , from moste faire Sion hee hath made to SHINE that our GOD will com & not linger , with a consumeing Fire before him , & a horrible Scorching round about him . Hee will CALL vnto the Heaven aboue , & the Erth to IVDGE his People . Gather to mee , ô my Saintes , doing my Covenant vvith Sacrifice , for surely GOD himself is IVDGE , and the Heavens shall tell his IVSTICE . Hear , ô my People Israel , and I thy very GOD vvill SPEAKE & protest of thee , I approove thee not for thy Sacrifices , nor thy burnt offrings vvhich are perpetually before mee , I vvill none of the Bullocks of thy House , nor of the Male goates of thy Folds , for every Forest of Catell is mine , and all the Beastes in a thousand Hills . I knovv all the Foule of the Hills , and the vvilde Beastes of the Feeld are vvith mee . If I be hungry I vvill not tell thee , for the vvhole Chaos is mine , & all the Implements thereof . VVhat ? Doe I eat Bulls flesh or drink the blood of Hee-goates ? Sacrifice to GOD Thanksgiveing , and to the moste Highe Soveraigne paye thy Vovves , if thou CALL vpon mee , J release thee in time of Distresse , and thou shalt glorifie mee . And to the Wicked GOD SAYED , What hast thou to doe , to declare mine ordinance , takeing my Covenant in thy mouth , seeing thou hate-est correction , and castest my COMMANDEMENTS behinde thee ? If thou see-est a Theeff and runnest with him , and hast thy Part with Adulterers , thou settest thy mouth on Evill , and with thy Tonge dost plot Deceipt , thou sittest and speakest against thy Brother , and slaunderest thine owne Mothers sonne ? These things thou doest , & because I hold my peace , thou imaginest that I am as thou art , I vvill reproove thee , and reckon with thee to thy face . I praye vnderstand THIS , all yee that think not on GOD : Lest J consume you , and ther be none to deliver you . Hee that sacrificeeth Thanksgiving , doth Glorifie mee , and J vvill putt him in the VVAYE , and shevv him the SALVATION of GOD. LI. For the Cheeff , A Psalme of David : When Nathan the Prophet came to him , as hee went in vnto Bath Shebah . HAVE pitty on mee , ô GOD , according to thy LOVEING KINDENES , and according to thy great MERCYES wipe away my Trespasses , wash mee well from mine iniquity , & make mee clean from all my Sinne , for I know my Trespasses , and my Sinnes are ever before mee . Towards thee onely haue I sinned , and thee onely have I displeaseed that all that thou SPEAKE-EST and JVDGE-EST may be right and cleer . Behold , in Iniquity vvas J born , & in Sinn , my Mother conceiued mee . Loe , thou delightest in the TRVTHE of the Loynes , therefore teache mee the WISDOM that is moste inward . Purge mee with Isop that I may be clean , wash mee that I may be whiteer then Snow , let mee heare some ioye & gladnes , that the bones that thou hast broke-en , may reioyce . ô hide thy face from my Sinnes , and wipe away all mine Iniquityes , make mee a clean Hart , ô GOD , and renew a perfect Minde within mee . ô cast mee not away from thy Presence , nor take thou thy holly Spirit from mee . Bring mee the Ioy of thy SALVATION , And with thy free Spirit vphold mee : that I may teach Trespassers thy WAYES , & Sinners how to com vnto thee . O GOD , O GOD of my SALVATION , deliver mee from blood , that my Tonge may sounde out thy RIGHTEOVSNES . ô LORD open my Lips , that my Mouth may tell out thy PRAYSE . For thou hast noe Delighte in Sacrifice , & Offering thou wilt none if I would giue it . The SACRIFICES of GOD are a Contrite Spirit , GOD setteth by a broken and an afflicted hart . ô mend vp Sion in thy favour , and build vp the Walles of Ierusalem , that then they may offer vp Bullocks vpon thine Altar , and thou mayest delighte in righte Sacrifices , and in perfect offerings . LII . For the Cheeff : A Mascil of David : How Doeg the Edomite told Saul , and sayd to him , David is com to Abimeleks House . WHY dost thou allwayes glory in MISCHEEFF , and in the DBTESTATION of the Almigthy , ô Stout-man ? Thou vvorkeest Greeff vvith thy tonge , like a keen rasor , doeing Deceipt . Thou lovest Naughtynes better then Goodnes , to speake false , rather then righte Surely . Thou lovest all devouring talke , O deceiptfull Tonge . Even so , GOD shall throw thee down for ever , prostrate thee , and pull thee out of thy Tent , and root thee out of the world for ever Surely ; and the RIGHTEOVS shall see it and Feare , and LAVGHE vpon him . Loe this is the Stout man that put not GOD his Confidence , and trusted in his great Riches , and had confidence in his Substance . But I like a green olive-tree in the House of GOD , will trust in the LOVEING KINDENES of GOD evermore . I will thank thee for ever , for that thou hast don , and because thy NAME is good : I will tary in presence of thy Saintes for ever . LIII . For the Cheeff ouer the Chore : A Mascil of DAVID . THE Ignorant fool THINKETH in his minde ther is no GOD : They doe all manner of abominable filthly vvrong , and none doth good . GOD looked out of Heaven vpon all Human men , to see vvhether ther vvere any DISCREET man seeking after GOD : and all vver gon back , and all becom stinking Reprobats together , none doeing good , noe not one . Doe not the workers of Greeff know , they eat vp my People like meat , vvhen they CALL not vpon GOD ? Where they feare a FEARE , ther is no feare , because GOD hath dispersed the bones of thy besieger ; thou make-est them abashed , as if GOD had cast them off . GOD graunt that Iacob may be once glad , and Israel REIOYCE out of Sion the SALVATION of Israel , when GOD shall bring again the captivity of his People . LIV. For the Cheeff in Song , A Mascil of David . VVhen the Zipps SAYDE to Saul : David is hid vvith vs. SAVE mee and Cleer mee , ô GOD , by thy victorious NAME , ô GOD , heare my PRAYER , and hearken to the WORDES of my Mouth , for cruell Enimyes are risen against mee , and seek my life , that put not GOD before them surely . Behold , let my LORD GOD that is my HELPER , and is vvith them that vphold my Life : bring the Evill to my Tormentors , and by thy TRVTHE dissolue them . That I may freely Sacrifice vnto thee , & set out the GOODNES of thy NAME , ô ETERNALL , that hath delivered mee out of all DISTRESSE : that mine eyes may look vpon mine Enimyes . LV. For the Cheeff in Song Musicque , A Mascil of DAVID . HEARE my PRAYER , ô GOD , and conceale not thy selfe f●om my pittifull SVPPLICATION , listen to mee and consider mee , that am setled in my Complainte and CRYE out , for the vrgeing Talk of the wicked Enimye , which Attempt to Anger , and Greeve mee . My Hart is in paine within mee , the Threatnings of death are fa●len vpon mee , feare , and Trembling is within mee , and Terror doth overhelle mee . And I SAYED : J would J had winges like a Dove , that I might flye and have Rest ; beholde , I would remoove farre off , and Lodge in the Wildernes , Surely . J would soon escape from the Tempestuous Whirlewinde . O LORD , diuide their Tonges , and Devoure them for the INIVRY and CONTENTION which I see in the Citty . Day and Night they goe aboute it vpon the VValles thereof , and Sorrovv and PAINE is vvithin it , Ther is a miserable CALAMITY with in it : DECEIPT and GVILE dravve not out of the streets . For , it was not an Enimye that defameed mee , that J should beare it , nor my Foe that hated mee , that made Much a doe against mee , that J might be hid from him : but thou , a wrech of mine owne Ranck , my wonted Companion and my familiar Acquaintance ; wee went in Company into the House of GOD , and took sweet Counsell together . Let Him put Death vpon them , and let them goe dovvn to Hell aliue , for MICHEEFFS are in the midle of their Dvvelling Houses . I CALL vnto GOD the ETERNALL to SAVE mee . Euening and Morning , and at Noon doe I Complaine and Cry out , that hee vvill hear my VOICE , & by PEACE ransome my Life from the vvarr , vvhich J haue vvith many that are vvith mee . The ALMIGHTY GOD hear and ansvver them , and Hee that Jnhabiteth their presence Surely . They haue noe Changes , and they Feare not GOD. Hee giues his hand vvith his Freend in League , and breaks his couenant , the vvordes of his Mouth are smoother then Butter , his Hart being all vvarr , they are Softer then Oyle , yet , are they naked Svvordes . Cast thy Prouidence vpon the ETERN : and hee vvill content thee . And I doe TRVST in thee . O GOD , bring THEM dovvn to the Pitt of Corruption , and let not Murtherers , and Treacherours men atteine to halfe their Time. LVI . For the Cheeff vpon Ionath-elem , of the Foreiners : A Mictam of David : When the Phelistines had hold on him in Gath. HAVE Pitty on mee , ô GOD , for Man devoureth mee , dayly fighteing to oppresse mee : my Tormentors gape dayly , they being exceeding many , that fight against mee . When I was afraid , I put my TRVST in thee : in -- GOD ( I praise his WORDE ) in GOD I put my TRVST , I feare not what flesh shall doe vnto mee . They are much mooved dayly , because of mee , for mee , all their DEVISES are for MICHEEFF . They lye in vvaite and lurk in secret , and observe my steps , as looking for my Life . O GOD , put them , to flight for their MOLESTATION , and in thine Anger overthrow the Nations . Counte my REMOOVINGS , ô GOD , and put my TEARES in they Botle , Be they not in thy reckoning ? THEN , when mine Enimyes turne back when I call , then , this I know that GOD is with mee . In GOD ( I PRAYSE his WORDE ) in the ETERNALL ( J PRAYSE his WORD ) in GOD I put my TRVST , I feare not what man shall doe vnto mee . I will pay thee Thanke-Offrings , ô GOD , and thy Vowes that I haue made thee , because thou hast delivered my person from Death , and my feet from scatering , to walke before GOD in the LIVEING LIGHT . LVII . For the Cheeff : DESTROYE NOT : A MICTAM , of David , vpon his flyeing from Saul into the Cave . HAVE Pitty on mee , ô GOD , for on thee doth my SOVLE rely , and in the shadow of thy winges , I wholely RELYE till CALAMITY be past , I CALL vnto GOD my SOVERAIGNE , the ALMIGHTY that doth all for mee . That hee vvould send his LOVEING KINDENES and his TRVTHE from Heauen , and saue mee from the Reproche of my Devourer Surely . My Soule is among Lions , I lye among inflamed Lions , men vvhose teeth are speares and arrovves , and their tonges sharp svvordes . O GOD , be thou extolled aboue the Heavens , and thy GLORY over all the Earth . When they set Nets for my feet , hee clipped my SOVLE , they haue digged Pittes before mee , and they are fallen in the midle of them Surely . My Hart is ready , ô GOD , my Hart is ready to SING PSALMES , I will vp betime with my GLORY , my Lute , and my Harp ▪ and thank thee , ô LORD , among the people , and LAVDE thee among the Nations . For the GREATNES of thy LOVING-KINDENES to the Heavens , and thy TRVTHE even to the cloudes . Be thou extolled , O GOD , aboue the Heavens , and thy GLORY over all the Earth . LVIII . For the Cheeff : DESTROYE not , A Mictam of DAVID . WHAT indeed , will yee never speak the TRVTHE ? will ye never IVDGE RIGHT , ô Human men ? and will you still in your heartes work wrong , and in the world , weigh INIVSTICE with your handes ? The WICKED stray , even from the bearing , and ERR as sonn as they be out of the wombe , Speakeing FALSLY . Their Burning is like the Stinging of a Serpent , like the Stinging of a deaff Adder , that hath his eares stopped , and cannot be charmed by the wiseest Coniurer . O GOD , break their Teeth in their mouthes , and dash the lawes of the Lions whelps in pecce-es , ô ETERNALL , that the Arrowes that hee draweth may be shunned , that they may goe like water and be broke-en . Let him goe like a melting Snaile , like the falling of a Woman , let them never see the Sunne . Before your pots feele the Briars : let his owne Choler burn him like raw flesh . That the JVST MAN may REIOYCE , because he hath seen a revenge , and washed his feet in the blood of the WICKED . And that men may SAYE ; Certainly ther is fruite of IVSTICE , certainly ther are Godes Judgeing in the Erth. LIX . For the Cheeff : DESTROYE not , a Mictam of David : When Saul sent and wached the House , to kill him . DELIVER mee , ô GOD , from mine Enimyes , and FREE mee from mine Insurrectours , deliuer mee from MOLESTORS , and save mee from BLOODY men . For loe , Mighty ones lye in vvaite for my Life , and Lurk for mee , vvithout any Trespasse or Offence of mine , ô ETERNALL , for noe Iniquity they runn and Prepare them selues against mee . ô , VP at my Calling and Beholde , and thou , ô ETERNALL , GOD of the Hostes of Israel , AWAKE to com visit all the Paganes . And haue Pitty on none that revolue sorrow and MOLESTATION surely . Let them goe yelling , at night like Doges about the Citty , beholde , Swordes are within their Lips , and they vtter with their mouthes , as if none doth hear them . And thou , ô ETERN : LAVGHEST at all the Paganes and deride-est them . because GOD hath been my RELEEFF , I will keep them whose STRENTH is in thee , that my people forget not , O kill them not . let the GOD of my LOV-KINDENES set mee present , and let GOD make mee look vpon my TORMENTOVRS . ô LORD , our DEFENSE , shake them by thy POWER & debase them , & let them be takē in all their PRIDE , The Sinfull WORDES of their Lips , and of their Mouthes . They SPEAKE nothing but Othes and Falshood , destroy thē with their CHAFEING , make an end of them , that they never be no more , that they may KNOWE that GOD ruleeth in Jacob , and to the Ends of the Erth Surely . And let them goe yelling at Night , like Doges about the Citty , let them goe vp and down for meat , and goe murmuring to their Lodgeing for want of their FILL : and I will SING and sound out thy STRENGTH , & thy LOVING KINDENES betimes in the morning , for being mine RELEEFF & REFVGE in time of my Destresse . ô my STRENGTH , to thee will I SING Psalmes , because the GOD of my LO : KINDENES hath been mine RELEEFF . LX. For the Maister vpon SHVSHAN EDHVTH , A lerned Mictam of David , vpon his Skirmish vvith Aaram Naharim , and Aram Zobah : VVhen Ioab returned , and slevv tvvelv thousand Edomites in the Vally of Melach . O GOD , thou that hast been angry , & broke-en vs , and giuen vs REPVLSE ; turn again vnto vs. Thou that hast made the Earth to quake and gape ; that it foundereth and slippeth : ô heale the Breaches thereof . Thou that hast shewed thy People Hardnes , and giuen vs drink , of wine of Astonishment : and hast made them that fear thee , remoove their Standard and fly , because of thy TRVTHE , surely : ô consider mee and help with thy Right hand , that thy Beloved ones may be released . GOD SPAKE in his Sanctuary ( I was glad ) I vvill diuide Shechem , and meat out the vale of Succoth , Giliad shall be mine , and Manasse shall be mine , Ephraim shall be my Cheeff Confirmation , Iudah shall be my Lavvier , & Moab my vvashing pot , vpon Edom vvill I cast off my Shooes , ô thou Phelistia triumph for mee . Who conducted mee to the Citty Mazor ? Who brought mee to the strong Citty Edom ? Didst not thou , ô GOD , that doest giue vs REPVLSE ? and goest not foorth with our Armyes ? O giue vs HELPE in Distresse , for vaine is the help of men . Through GOD vvee shall doe prosperously , & hee vvill trede dovvne our Besiegers . LXI . For the Cheeff over the Song Musicque , of DAVID . HEAR , ô GOD , my Shout , & conceive my Prayer , whē at the Extremity of the world I Cry vnto thee , whē my hart fainteth . guide thou mee by the Rock that is aboue mee : That I may Soiourne everlastingly in thy Tabernacle , & relye on the hideing of thy VVinges . Because thou art my RELYE , and strong TOVVER , for the Enimye . ô thou , ô GOD , that hearest my vovves & vvishes , and grauntest to them their REQVEST , that Feare thee : ô double the KINGS dayes , and make his yeers as many Generations . That hee may ever dvvell before GOD , and that LOVING-KINDENES and TRVTHE , his Portion , may ever preserue him , that J may perpetually chaunt out thy NAME , by my payeing my Vovves euery daye . LXII . For the Cheeff , by Ieduthun , A Psalm of DAVID . SVRELY vpon GOD my SOVLE doth rest , from him is my SALVATION . Surely hee is my ROOK and my SALVATION , hee is my STAYE that I Slip not over much . Why doe yee Devise against a man ? that yee may all slay him like a ruinous wall , & like a broke-en and destroyed hedge . Surely they CONSVLT to beat down his honour to the ground . They love FALSHOOD , they make much of one vvith their mouthes , but in their harts despise him Surely . Surely vpon GOD rest thou my Soule , for , from him is all my waiteing . Sure he is my ROCK & my SALVATION , he is my STAYE that I slip not . Vpon GOD my SALVATION , and my GLORY , in GOD my strong ROCK is my RELYE . Trust in him allwayes yee people , power out your hartes before him and SAYE , GOD is our whole RELYE Surely . Surely the sonnes of Adam are Vaine , and the children of Men are false , & to be weighed together they are lighter then Vanity . Put not vaine confidence in Deceipt , and Robbery , if your welth increase , set not your hartes vpon them , once or twise hath GOD SPOKEN it and I haue hard it : That all STRENGTH is GODS , and KINDENES thine , O LORD , because thou payest every man according to his WORKE . LXIII . A Psalm of David : VVhen hee vvas in the VVildernes of Iudah . O Thou , my Mighty GOD , I earnestly desire thee , my SOVLE thirsteth for thee , and my FLESH longeth for thee , in a Dry and thirsty land without water : that I may even beholde thee in thy Sanctuary , and to see thy STRENGTH and thy GLORY , and to commend thee with my lippes , for thy LOVING-KINDENES that is better then Life . That I may ever hold vp my hands , and blesse thee in my life , and my mouth may PRAYSE thee with triumphing lippes , when my SOVLE is satisfyd , as with fat , and thicknes ; & triumph in the Shadow of thy winges , when I remember and think on thee vpon my bed , in the Waches , how thou hast been my HELPE . My SOVLE cleeveth after thee , thy righte hand holdeth mee , while they that seek my LIFE , are vnder the Earth , and are shaken , and com to nothing , they that prouoke the KING by the sword , are becom meat for foxes , and let the KING reioyce in GOD , and every Devout man glory in him , because the mouth of them that speak Treason is stopped . LXIV . For the Cheeff , A Psalm of DAVID . O GOD , in my Complaining hear my VOYCE . Preserue my Life from Dread of the Enimyes , hide me from the secret counsell of Naughty men , and from the Conuent of them that be vvorkers of Greeff , vvhich vvhet their Tonges like Svvordes , & dravve their Arrovves , BITTER vvords , priuily to hit the PERFECT man , they shoot at him on a Suddain and fear not . VVhich comfort themselues in an ill matter , vvhich reckon to hide Snares , and SAY , Noe man shall see them . they make a vvonderfull serche to finde out VVronges , and the Invvard Thoughtes of a Man , and the Bottom of his Hart : and so let GOD shoot them , and Soudain Arrovves be their strokes . And let their ovvne Tonges that offend him , fall vpon themselues , that all may start that look vpon them , and all men be afrayd , and declare GODS VVORKE , and consider and Lerne his DOING . That the IVST man may REIOYCE in the ETERNALL , relyeing in him , and they Glory that are of an vpright minde . LXV . A Psalm for the Cheeff : A Song of David . FOR thee , ô GOD , abideth PRAYSE in Sion , to thee be all Vowes performed , ô thou that hearest PRAYER , euen to thee let all flesh com , for thou reconcile-est our Trespasses , and pardonest the Iniquityes that ouercame mee . HAPPY is hee whom thou chuse-est , and entertainest , to dwell in thy Courtes , to satisfye vs with the GOODNES of thy House , and Closet , O Holly one . Fearefull things shouldest thou Answer vs in IVSTICE , O GOD of our SALVATION : the TRVST of all the endes , and Longinquityes of Land and Sea. With the Girdle of his Power , and EXCELLENCE , which fasteneth the Hills , and stilleth the proude waves of the Seas , and Roaring of the Nations ; and the Inhabitants , of the Endes and Issues of Morning & Evening , which are afrayed of thy Signes , thou make-est to Triumph : Thou lookest on the Erth , and makest it runn full of water , O GOD , thou greatly inrichest it with Rivers , thou prepare-est their corn , for to that end thou ordeynedst it . O wet her furrowes , break her clodes , & dissolv it with Showers , bless her Chisming , crown the yeer with thy GOODNES , that thy cart routes may flow with fatnes , and drop Dwellings in the Wildernes , and the Hills gird on Gladnes , and the Plaines put on sheep , and the Vales be clad with corne , that they may triumph and Sing . LXVI . For the Cheeff , A Psalm Song . SHOVT vnto GOD all the Eearth , SING PSALMES of his Glorious NAME , set out his Glorious PRAYSE , SAYE vnto GOD : How fearfull is thy doing ? by thy great STRENGTH are thine Enimyes subdued vnto thee , all the erth doe worship thee , and make Hymnes vnto thee , they chaunt out thy NAME surely . Com and beholde the WORKES of GOD , hee hath terrible INVENTION for the Children of men : hee turneth the Sea into Dry Land , that they went over the River on foot , wher wee reioyced in him . Hee rulle-eth the World by his EXELLENCE , his Eyes wach over the People , and let not the Rebellious exalt themselue Surely . Blesse our GOD , yee People , Sound out the VOICE of his PRAYS , that hath put our Soules in LIFE , and not suffered our feet to slipp . For thou hast prooved vs , ô GOD , and tryed vs like Silver , thou hast brought vs into the Toyle , and pressed our Loynes , thou hast made men ride ouer our Heades , vvee haue gon through fire & vvater , and thou broughtest vs out to a REFRESHING : and I vvill goe into thy House vvith OFFERINGS , I vvill pay the my Vovves , vvhich my Lips opened , and my mouth SPAKE in my Distresse . I vvill offer Offerings of Rams fat , and Incense vnto thee , and I vvill Sacrifice Bullocks and Buck-Goates surely . Com hearken all yee that fear GOD , and I vvill TELL you vvhat hee hath don for mee . I Cryed vnto him with my Mouth , and he was much exalted vnder my tonge , If I see any molestation in my hart : the LORD hear mee not . J assure you , GOD hearkened to mee , and hard the VOICE of my PRAYER . Blessed be GOD , vvhich put not avvaye my PRAYER , nor hath taken avvay his KINDENES from mee . LXVII . For the Cheeff in Song Musicque , A Psalme Song . GOD be gratious vnto vs , and blesse vs , and LIGHTEN vs with his COVNTENANCE surely , that they may knowe the WAYE of SALVATION among all Nations of the world , that the People may confesse thee , O GOD , that all People may confesse thee . That all Nations may Reioyce & Triumph , that thou Iudgest the People , and leadest the folke rightely and discreetly surely . That the People may confesse thee , ô GOD , that all People may confesse thee . Our own GOD blesse vs , that the Earth may giue her Abundance of increase , GOD blesse vs , that all out-coastes of the Earth may fear him . LXVIII . For the Cheeff , of DAVID , A Psalm Song . LET GOD arise , and let his Enimyes be skatered , and they that hate him flee before him . Drive them away like smoke , and as wax melteth before the fire : so let the WICKED perish before GOD. That the RIGHTEOVS may reioyce , that they may leap before GOD , and REIOYCE with ioy . ô SING vnto GOD , CHAVNT out his NAME , strew vnto him that ride-eth in the Deserts , and in his NAME ETERNALL , vawnt and skip before him . A father of the fatherles , and a Husband of the Widowes , is GOD in his holly MANSION , hee teacheth to keep house alone , hee bringeth out the Restrained in to commodious places , but the wayward ones abide still in Droughth . O GOD , when thou wentest out before thy People , when thou marchedst in the Wildernes surely : the Earth shook in Sinai , and the Heavens dropped from the very GOD of Israel , thou droppedst liberall showers , ô GOD , thou confirmedst thine Inheritance , when it was weery , thy Congregation dwelt ther , ô GOD , and thou didest PROVIDE for the Oppressed . My LORD gaue his word , and ther was a Great ARMY of MESSENGERS , and warly Kings fled , they fled , and the Good wife of the House diuided the spoile . Will you lye in your Cotes with your silver & gold plate-ed fethers , yee Culver-winges ? while the ALSVFFICIENT snoweth Kings in Salmon and spreds them on it ? the HILL of GOD , the HILL Bashan , the HILL Bashan MOVNT GABHNVNIM ? why vrge yee the HILLS GABHNVNIM , a Hill that GOD listeth to haue for his Seat , Yea the ETERNALL will abide ther for ever ? The Chariots of GOD are twenty Millions of Souldiers , and my LORD in the middes of them in the Sanctuary of Sinai . Thou surmountest to the High-est , thou takest captive , and receivest Ransomes for men , and also the Wayward ones are to abide still , O GOD ETERNALL , blessed be my LORD the GOD of my SALVATION , when wee are burdned surely . Our GOD is the GOD of SALVATION , and the ISSVES of Death are my LORD the ETERNALLS : but GOD will wound the head of his Enimyes , and the hairy crown of him that walketh in his Crimes . My LORD SAYED , I vvill bring thē againe from BASHAN , I will bring them againe from the Bottom of the Deep Sea. That thou mayest blood thy feet , and vvet the tonges of thy Doges in the blood of thine Enimyes . They savv thy GOINGS , ô GOD , and Hovv my GOD and KING marched in his SANCTVARY , Singers goe before , and Minstrels follovv , and in the midle , are maydes tabouring vvith Tabors , in the Congregations they blessed GOD , they blessed the LORD from the Fountain of Israel . Ther is litle Benjamin their Commander , vvith the Princes of Iudah , the Prince-es of Zabulon , and Prince-es of Neph Taly their band . Thy GOD , send thy STRENGTH ( The strength , ô GOD , vvhich thou hast vvrought for vs ) out of thy Temple vpon Ierusalem , that KINGS may vvaft giftes vnto thee . CHASTICE thou the beastes vvith the reed , and the herd of the mighty bulls vvith the Calues of the People , that creep for peeces of mony . Let him scatter the Nations that delight in vvars , that Prince-es may com from Egypt , & Ethopia send her hand Post vnto GOD : Yee KINGDOMES of the Erth SING vnto GOD , & CHAVNT out my LORD surely . SING to him that ride-eth in the Ancient Heauens , beholde vvith his VOYCE , hee gaue a mighty VOYCE . O giue STRENGTHE vnto GOD for Israel his highth : and his STRENGTH in the Skyes . My GOD terrible out of thy SANCTVARYES : the Mighte of Israel , that Giueth STRENGTH and FORTITVDE to his People , Blessed be GOD. LXIX . For the Cheeff vpon Shoshamin , of David . O Save mee , ô GOD , the waters are come euen to my SOVLE , I steek fast in the deep mire , and ther is no Standing , I am come into the deep Waters , and the Currents drowne mee , I am weery of CALLING my throat is hoarse , mine Eyes are spent with waiting for my GOD , my Haters for nothing , are more then the Haires of my Head , and my Traytorous Enimyes exceed my Lockes , that I restored that which I stole not . O GOD , thou knowest my Folly , and my faultes be not hid from thee . ô my LORD , let thē not be abashed of mee that waite for thee . ô warlike ETER : GOD of the Hostes of Israel : Let not them that seek thee be reproched by mee , seeing I bear reproche for thee , and my face is covered with shame , I am a strange-er to my Bretheren , ●nd vnknown to my Mothers children , for the Zeal of thy House devoured mee , the Reproche-es of thy Reproches falling vpō mee . My body fasted , & I wept , & that was a reproche to mee , I put on Sack-cloth , and they flouted mee , they sit in their Doores and talke of mee , and the Ale-drinkers rhime vpon mee . And I with my PRAYER to the ETERNALL , ô GOD , when it pleaseth thee for thy great KINDENES , & TRVTHE of thy SALVATION . Hear mee . O Deliuer mee out of the Durt , and let mee not steek fast , let mee be deliuered from my Hate-ers , and from the vvater-vvhirle-pooles , let not the Currents overflovv mee , & let not the Deep svvallovv mee , let not the Pit close her mouth vpon mee . Consider mee , ô ETERNALL , of thy bountifull KINDENES , and of thy great Mercyes look vpon mee , and hide not thy face from thy Seruant , vvhen I am in Distresse ; hye and Consider mee . Com neer vnto my SOVLE & ransom it , com neer because of mine Enimyes , and redeeme mee . Thou knovvest my Reproche-es , my Bashfullnes and Shame : all my vvrongers are before thee , Reproche and Greeff hath broken my Harte . I looked for escapeing , and ther vvas none , I looked for Comforters , and I finde none , but they put Gall in my feeding , and giue mee viniger to Drinke for my thirst . O let their tables before them be a Trap , and their freendly Truce-es a tileed Snare , let their Eyes be dark from seeing it , and make their Loynes allvvayes tumble , povver vpon them thy vvrath , let the Kindling of thy COVNTENANCE ouertake them . Let their Tyrets be vvaste , and noe man dvvell in their Tents ; and because they pursue him vvhom thou hast strooken , and reckoned to greev thy Slaine : Put thou VVRONG vpon their VVRONG , & let them neuer com into thy RIGHTE . Let them be vvipe-ed out of the Book of Life , and vvith the IVST let them neuer be vvritten , and I beeing in Misery and Greeff , that thy SALVATION may releeue mee , that I may PRAYSE and Magnify the NAME of GOD , vvith Songs of THANKSGIVING , and it shall please the ETERNALL better , then a yong horned clouen footed ox bullock . That the LOVVLY may see it and reioyce , and yee that seek GOD , it may reuiue your hartes , that the ETERNALL hearkeneth to the Poore , and despiseth not his Prisoners . That the Heauens and Earth , and Sea , and all that creepeth in them , may Prayse him : for GOD vvill saue Sion , and build the Cittyes of Iudah , that they may dvvell there and possess it , and that the SEED of his Seruants that Loue his NAME ; may inherit it , and abide in it for euer . LXX . For the Cheeff , of David , for Remembrance . O GOD ETERNALL , make haste to deliver mee , and help mee , that they may be abashed , and confounded that seek my Life , and be turned back with Reproche that would hurt mee . Let them returne with shame that SAYE , ô Sir , ô Sir , that all that seek thee and loue thy SALVATION , may be glad and reioyce in thee , and all way SAY : GOD be great . And I being wreched and needdy ; ô GOD , haste-en to mee , and thou my HELP and RESCVER , ô ETERNALL , make noe tarying . LXXI . IN thee , ô ETERNALL , doe I RELYE , let me never be abashed , by thy RIGHTEOVSNES , deliver mee and RESCVE mee , turne thine Eare to mee , and SAVE mee . Be thou my strong Hold , to receiue mee allwayes , and being my ROCK and GARISON , send out to save mee . Rescue mee , ô GOD , from the hand of the WICKED , and from the gripes of the levened WRANGLER . For thou art my HOPE and TRVST , ô my LORD ETERNALL , from my youth . Vpon thee was I layed from my Mothers belly , and thou wast my TAKER from her Bowels , and my PRAYSE shall allwayes be of thee . I am a Wonder to many that thou art my strong RELYE , and that my mouth is dayly full of thy PRAYSE and DECENCYE . ô cast mee not off in time of old-age , nor forsake mee as my strength faileth . Because mine Enimyes SAY of mee , and the Observers of my Life are consulted together , SAYING : GOD hath forsaken him , Pursue him , take him , for ther is none to deliuer him . ô GOD , be not farr from mee , ô my GOD , make haste to my HELP , that they may be quite abashed , and they that are against my Life ; and they that seek my hurt : may put on REPROCHE and SHAME : And I will allwayes WAITE , and put more continually to all thy PRAYSES , my Mouth shall dayly declare thy RIGHTEOVSNES , and thy SALVATION : For I know noe Number of them . I will come with all my MIGHTE , and make Mention of thy singular IVSTICE , O my LORD ETERNALL . O GOD , thou hast taught mee from my youth , and hitherto , to set foorth thy mervillous WORKES , and also , at my old-age forsake mee not , till I TELL of thy MIGHTY ARME to all Generations to come : and thy RIGHTEOVSNES , O GOD , to the Highest . VVhat great things thou hast don , O GOD , that ther is none like thee . VVhich hast shevven mee many Distresses , and EVILLS , and come again and reviue-ed mee , and come and took mee vp out of the Deepth of the Earth . Thou hast turned about , and comforted mee , and increased my GREATNES manifold : And I vvill set out also , vpon my VIOL Instrument , thy TRVTHE , ô my GOD , and vvill SING PSALMES vnto thee on my Harp , ô Holly ONE of Israel . My Lips shall triumph , vvhen I SING vnto thee , and my SOVLE that thou hast redeemed , and my TONGE shall dayly talk of thy RIGHTEOVSNES , Seeing that they are abashed , and confounded that sought my Hurt . LXXII . For SALOMON . O GOD , giue thy IVDGEMENTS , & RIGHTEOVSNES to the Kings sonne , that hee may SENTENCE the Lowly people with Righte Iudgement , that the Mountaines and Hills by IVSTICE may bear PEACE for the people , that hee may quite the Lowly people , and save the Children of the Poore , and beate down the Oppressour , that with the Sunne & Moone a Generation of Generations may fear thee . That it may com downe like Raine vpon the Aftermath , and dropping Showers on the Land. That in his dayes the RIGHTEOVS may flowrish , and much PEACE , as long as the Moone lasteth . And that hee may RVLLE from Sea to Sea , and from the River to the vtmust Land. That the Savages may bow , and his Enimyes lick the Dust , the Kings of Tarshish , and of the Ilandes render Presentes , the Kings of Sheba and Seba offer Rewardes , and that all Kinges of all Nations , may worship him , and serve him : because hee deliuereth the Poore when hee shouteth , and the Oppressed , when he hath no Helper , because hee ha●h pitty vpon the Empty and Poore man , & saveth the Liues of the Poore , and Ransometh their SOVLES from GVILE and INIVRY ( their blood being deer in his Eyes ) That he may dayly BLESSE him , and allwayes Pray for his Life , and giue him of the Gold of Sheba . That the fruite of a little feeld of Corn on the hill TOP , may shake like Libanon : and that they may flowerish out of the Citty like the grasse of the Earth . That his NAME may be in the Sunn , and spring for ever . That all Nations may BLESSE themselues in him , and call him HAPPY . Blessed be GOD ETERNALL , the GOD of Israel , that only doth MERVILLOVS things , and Blessed be his GLORIOVS NAME , for ever , and let his GLORY be plentifull in all the Earth , INDEED and INDEED . The Prayer of David , the Sonne of ISHA are ended . THE THIRD BOOKE . LXXIII . A Psalm of ASAPH . TRVELY GOD is good to Jsrael , hee is good to the pure mindeed , for I freated exceedingly at the vaine glorious fooles , vvhen I savv the Peace of the vvicked , and my feet vvear allmoste gone , and my footings even quite confounded , because their death hath noe cōstreints , & it is free from bandes ; they are not Plagued vvith the paines of vvreched men : therfor Pride inuirons them , and the very habit of Iniury doth couer them . Their eyes are euen out vvith fatt , and they haue vailes ouer their hartes , they speak putrifyed speeches of the naughtines of their misdealing , they speak a highe , and set their mouthes in the heauen , and their tonges goe in all the earth , and they say : How doth GOD know , or is ther any knowledge in the Soveraigne ? Therfore let his people come hither : and plenty of water shall be wrong vnto them , behold , these wicked men gett all the prosperity in the world . Truely in vain doe I cleer my hart , and wash my handes in harmlesnes , and am dayly plagued , and haue Correction every morning . If I say , I will Speak like them ; Behold , I doe renounce the generation of thy children , and I made reckoning to knowe this , and it seemed paine vnto mee , vntill I came into the Sanctuary of the Almighty , and vnderstood their later END . Certainly thou puttest them in slippery place-es , thou make-est them fall into Traines , How are they ( as in a moment ) wasted ; spent and fearfully consumed ? Like a dream of one vvhen hee avvaketh , ô my LORD , thou marrest their Image in the riseing . And I was with thee like a brute beast with a sower hart , and my reines pricking and knew nothing , and I beeing continually with thee ; thou heldest mee by my right hand , and ledest mee by thy counsell , and after entertainedst mee with GLORY . Who haue I in heaven but thee ? and in the erth I haue none with thee to delight in : all my residue is don , and GOD is my hart , my very ha●t pinn and portion for euer . And I , because loe thy far-absenters perish , and thou destroyest every one that whooreth from thee : I like the neernes of GOD , and put my whole Relye in my LORD the ETERNALL , that I may declare all thy messages . LXXIV . A Mascil of ASAPH . WHY drawest thou back still , O GOD , that thine angry countenāce smokes against the sheep of thy Pasture ? remember thine Assembly , which thou purchasedst long agoe , and the shaft of thine Inheritance , which thou redeemedst , this Hill of Sion wher thou dwellest . ô deliver thy foot-steps at perpetuall DESOLATIONS . The Enimye spoyleth all in the Sanctuary , thy Besiegers roar in the midle of thy Synagogue , and make their monstrous Signes , it was known , at the bringing to perfection , the Axes wear in the thick woodes , and now the grauen vvork and all , they knock dovvn vvith bietles and Hammers , they cast thy Sanctuary into the fire , they break dovvn the Tabernacle of thy Name to the ground . They say in their mindes , and their Ofspring also , Burn all the Synagogues of GOD in the Land. Wee see not our Signes , we haue no more Prophetes , ther is none with vs can tell how long . How long , ô GOD , shall the Besiege-er reuile ? shall the Enimy blaspheme thy Name for ever ? why returnest thou thy hand , evē thy right hand , to bee noe more out of thy bosom ? and GOD my King of old , the worker of SALVATION in the midle of the Erth ? Thou diuide-edst the Sea by thy strength , thou brake-est the heades of the great Dragons by the vvaters , thou crushedst the heads of the Leuiathan in peeces , & gauest him to the Ilanders to eat , thou didst cleaue vp the flovving springes , and dryedst vp mighty riuers . The day and night are thine , thou ordeinedst the light of the Sunn , thou Settest all the boundes of the Erth , yea Sommer and VVinter , them thou formedst . Remember this , ô ETERNALL , the Enimy reproche-eth , and the vile people blaspheme thy Name , giue not the life of thy Turtle Dove to the Beasts , and forget not thy gentle Congregation for euer . Look to thy COVENANT , how the rude-ignorant people of the world fill their houses with Injury , let not the contrite , the poor and wreched ones that Praise thy Name , goe away with reproche . Vp , O GOD , mainteine thy quarell , remember thy Reproche from the vile ones dayly . Forget not the voice of thy Besiegers , and the Pride of thine Insurrectors , which continually increaseth . LXXV . For the Cheeff , Al tashcheth , A Psalm : A Song of ASAPH . WEE THANK thee , O God , vvee THANK thee that thy Name is nighe , and that they declare thy vvonderfull vvorkes . That I haue opportunity , that I JVDGE vprighte , I measure the molten Pillars of the Erth , and all her Inhabitants Surely . I SAY to the Vaine glorious fooles , Boast you not , and to the Wicked ; Hold not vp your hornes , hold not vp your hornes a highe , and speak not vvith a stiffneck , for neither from East nor VVest , nor VVildernes is Aduancement : but GOD is hee that Iudge-eth , hee humbleth and hee aduaunceeth . For the Cup is in the hand of the ETERNALL , and a vessell of Seething vvine full of Liquor , and hee dravveth out of it , but all the VVicked of the erth shall vvring out , and drink vp the dregs thereof . And I vvill tell & sing Psalms vnto the GOD of Iacob . That I may cut off the Hornes of the Wicked , and that the Hornes of the Iust may bee exalted . LXXVI . For the Cheeff in Song Musicque , A Psalm of ASAPH . GODS Name is greatly known in Iudah & Israel , haveing his dwelling Tabernacle in Shalem and Sion , wher hee brake the flightes and shieldes and swordes of battaile surely . Thou appeerest greater then the devouring MOVNTAINES . The Stoute harted wear bereft , and slept their sleep , & the valiant men found not their hands . At the Rebuke ( O GOD of Iacob ) both Chariot & Horses were in a swefen . Thou art very terrible , and who can stand before thee , when thou art angry ? When GOD arose to Iudgement , to save the Lowely ones of the Erth : Thou vtteredst thy Sentence from Heaven , and the Erth feared , and was at quiet Surely . Seeing the Chafe of men doth make thee famous ; gird on the rest of thy Chafeings . Pay you your Vowes to the ETERNALL your GOD , all yee that bee about him , and waft giftes to your Dred , that crops the spirit of PRINCE-ES , and is ter●ible to the KINGS of the Erth. LXXVII . For the Cheeff over Ieduthum , A Psalm of ASAPH . I Cryed with my voyce to GOD , vnto GOD I cryed with my Voyce , that hee would hearken to mee ; in the day of my destresse I sought the LORD , my hand was streched out by night , and is not weery , and my soul refuseed comfort . I remembred GOD and cryed out , that my spirit fainted surely . Thou holdest myne Eye-waches , and I was strooken that I spake not , I thought vpon the dayes of old , and the yeeres of many worldes . I remember my LEDEN in the night , which I vttered with my hart , and my Spirit invented . Will the LORD ever bee averse , and never bee pleased more ? Js his Loueing Kindenes ceased for euer , and his Promiss at an end for all Generations ? hath GOD forgotten to be gratious , or hath hee stopped vp his mercyes vvith anger , Surely ? And I sayed that which I will sing is the YEERS of the RIGHTE HAND of the Most Highe . I vvill remember the Excellent VVORKES of the ETERNALL , remembring thy Miracles of old , and meditat vpon all thy VVORKS , and SPEAK of thy most Excellent ACTS : O GOD , thy vvay is in thy Sanctuary , vvhat MIGHT is so great as GOD ? Thou art the Mighty one that hast don vvonderfull thinges , and manifested thy Povver among the Nations , vvith thine Arme thou ransomedst thy People . The Children of Iacob and Ioseph surely . Assoone as the vvaters savv thee , O GOD , vvhen they Savv thee , they Trembled , yea the Deepes wear stirred . The cloudes showred down waters , the Skyes gaue a Clap , yea thine Arrowes went every way , thy Thunder claps wer in the round Orbs , thy Lighting 's Lightned the whole World , the Erth stirred and quaked . Thy way beeing in the Sea , and thy Pathes in the Great Waters , and thy footsteps vnknown ; thou leddest thy People like Sheep by the hands of Moses and Aaron . LXXVIII . A Mascil of ASAPH . HEAR , ô my People , my DOCTRINE , and hearken to the WORDES of my mouth ; I will open my mouth in PARABLES , and vtter ancient ridles , which wee haue heard and known , and our fathers have told vs. that wee should recount the PRAYSES of the ETERNALL to another Generation , and not conceal from their children his power , and his mervillous WORKES which hee hath don . Hee set a TESTAMENT in Iacob , and put a LAW in Israel , which hee commaunded our fathers to acquaint their Children with , that an other Generation might knowe it , and children vnborne might vp , and tell it to their Children , that they might put their TRVST in GOD , and not forget the Excellent DEEDS of the ALMIGHTY , and obserue his COMMAVNDEMENTS . And not be like their Fathers , a froward and rebellious Generation , a Generation that had noe stedfast hart nor faithfull minde with GOD : The Children of Ephraim , that turned aside like Warping bowes in the day of Battail , and kept not the COVENANT of GOD , and refuse-ed to walk in his LAW , and forgot his Excellent ACTS , and wonderfull WORKES which hee shewed them . The WONDERS hee did in the feelds of ( the Citty ) ZOAN in the Land of Egypt , hee claue the Sea a sunder , and conveyed them over , and made the Waters stand like a heap , he lad them by a cloud in the day , and all the night by fire-light . Hee clave the rockes in the wildernes , and gave drink as vvith store of Deepes . hee brought floods out of the cliftes , and made them run dovvn like riuers of vvater , and yet they sinned again tovvards him , vexing the most High in the Desert , and tempted GOD in their mindes , asking food for their bodyes , and spake against GOD , and SAYD : Can GOD furnish a Table in the VVildernes ? Behold hee smote the Rock and Riuers of vvater issued out abundantly , can hee also giue bread and prouide meat for his People ? and therfor the Euerlasting vvhen hee hard it vvas enrage-ed , and fire kindle-ed in Jacob , and also anger grevv great in Jsrael , because they beleeued not in GOD , & TRVSTED not in his SALVATION . And hee cōmaunded the Skyes aboue , & the doores of Heaven to open , and rained vpō them MANNA to eat , & gaue them vvheat from Heauen . Mē eate bread of Strength , he sent thē victuall enough , hee remooued the East winde in Heauen , and by his strength brought in the South , & rained vpon them flesh like dust , & winged foul like the Sand of the Sea , and made it lighte within his camp , & round about all his dwellings , they did eate and wear well satisfyed , and hee brought them their own longing . they forsook nor their lustings while they wear yet eating , & the meat in their mouthes , & the anger of GOD increased among them , & he slew of the fattest of their men , and bowed down the choise men of Israel . For all this , they sinned again & beleeved not in his wonderfull Workes , and hee ended their dayes in vanity , and their yeers in terror . Did they seek him whē hee slew them , did they turn & inquire after the Almighty ? & did they remember that GOD was their safe Rock , and the most Highe their Redeemer ? THE HALF BOOK . Yea they deceived him with their mouthes , & lied vnto him with their tonges ; and their hart was not firm with him , neither wear they faythfull in his COVENANT ; yet hee beeing mercyfull ; reconciled for the Iniquity , and destroyed not , and many times hee refrained his Anger , and would not rouse vp all his Heat , remembring , that they wear flesh , and a winde that passeth , and cōmeth not again . How often did they vex , and greev him in the wildernes & solitary Desertes ; and went & tempted the ALL MIGHTY , and limited the Holly one of Israel ? not remembring his hand in the day hee redeemed them from the Enimy , what Signes & WONDERS hee left in the Country of ( the Citty ) ZOAN in EGYPT ? how hee turned their rivers into blood , and their brookes that they could not drink . Hee sent flyes to devour them , and frogs to destroy them , he gave their increase to the Caterpiller , & their Toile to the Grass-hopper . Hee beat their vines with Haile , and their Figtrees with Hailstones , and shut vp their Bease vnto the Hail , and their Cattell to Flames of fire . Hee sent among them a Message of euill Angels , his hot Anger , his VVrath and his tormenting Seuerity of Affliction . Hee pondered a fit vvay for his Anger , hee kept not their ovvn Persons back from death , and their herds of Cattell , hee shut vp to the Pestilence , he Smote the first-born in Egypt , and the prime of their strength in the Tabernacles of Ham. And remooued avvay his people , and lad them like a flock in the VVildernes , hee conducted them safly , vvithout fear , and the Sea ouervvhelmed their Enimyes , and hee brought them to his holly borders , this Hill , vvhich his Right-hand conquered , and droue out Nations before them , and hee made them fall an Inheritance by Lot , and the Tribes of Israel to dvvell in their Tabernacles . And they tempted and angered GOD the most HIGH , and kept not his TESTIMONYES , and turned back and reuolted like their Fathers , they turned aside , like a vvarped bovv , and they vexed him vvith their high places , and tinned him vvith their graue-en Images . GOD heard it , and vvas enrage-ed , and greatly reprooued Jsrael , and hee forsook his Habitation in Shilo , and his Tabernacle vvhich hee place-ed in Adam , and gaue his STRENGH to captiuity , and his GLORY into the hand of the Enimy , and hee shut vp his People to the Svvord , and vvas inrageed against his Inheritance . The fire consumeed his yong men , & his maydes vvere not commended , his Priestes fell by the Svvord , & ther vvas noe vveeping of his VVidovvs . And the LORD avvaked vvith a noys like a strong-man asleep vvith VVine , and smote the hinder part of his Enimyes , and gaue them an Euerlasting reproche . And hee refuse-ed the Tabernacle of Joseph , and the Tribe of Ephraim hee liked not , and hee chose the Tribe of Judah Mount Sion , vvhich hee loued , and hee built his Church most highe , and founded it like the Erth for euerlasting . And hee chose his Seruant Dauid , and took him from the Sheepfolds , hee took him from follovving the yevves vvith Lamb , to feed his People in Jacob , & his INHERITANCE in Israel , & hee fed them vvith his vvhole hart , and lad thē vvith all the skill of his handes . LXXIX . A Psalm of ASAPH . O GOD , the Hethen are come into thine INHERITANCE , & haue defileed thy holly Temple , and brought Ierusalem to confusion . They haue made the carcases of thy Servants , meat for the fowles of Heaven , and the flesh of thy Gratious ones ; food for the beasts of the erth . They haue shed their blood like water round about Ierusalem , and ther is none that buiryeth them ; and wee are a Reproche , a Laughing stock , and a Mocking stock to all our Neighbours round about vs. O ETERNALL , wher to wilt thou be angry for euer ? & how lōg shall thy Ialousy burn like fire ? ô powre out thy hot Wrath vpon the Hethen which know thee not , and vpon the Kingdoms that call not vpon thy NAME . Because it hath eatē vp Iacob , and they haue made his goodly dwelling desolate . Remember not our former Iniquityes , but set thy mercyes quickly before vs , for wee are greatly waste-ed . Help vs , ô GOD , for the GLORY of thy NAME ; and deliuer vs , and make reconciliation for our sinnes for thy Names sake . Why shall the Hethen SAY , Wher is their GOD ? Let him be known manifestly among the Hethen , before our eyes ; a Revenge of the blood of his Servantes that is shed . Let the Prisoners groneing come before thee , and according to the greatnes of thine ARME , restore thou them that are condemned to dye . And to our Neighbours , turn into their bosomes , seven times , ô Lord , their Reproche which they have reproched thee , and wee thy People and the sheep of thy pasture ; will publish , and tell out thy PRAYSE for ever , yea for all Generations . LXXX . For the Cheeff vpon Shoshannim : Edbuth , A Psalm of ASAPH ▪ O Sheephard of Israel , hear vs ; thou that conductest Ioseph like a flock of sheep ; & Inhabitest the Cherubs : SHINE out . Rouse vp thy STRENGTH before Ephraim , Benjamin and Manasses , and come and help vs. Guide vs , O GOD , by the Shineing of thy COVNTENANCE we may be safe . O ETERNALL , GOD of hostes ; How long wilt thou FVME against the PRAYERS of thy People ? thou feedest them with bred of weeping , and make-est them drink with abundance of Teares ? Thou settest vs a Taunt for our Neighbours , and our Enimyes make a Mock at them . O GOD of Hostes , Conduct vs by the Shineing of thy COVNTENANCE wee may bee safe . Thou remoovedst a VINE out of Egypt , and expelledst the Hethen , and plantedst it ; thou madest a clean riddance before it , and madest her rootes take root & fill the Land , and the hilles wear covered with her Shadow , her branches beeing like mighty Ceders ; her short bowes and sucking shoots shee reached out to the Sea , and to the Rivers . Why hast thou broke-en down her hedgees that all Travailers doe curss her ? The Savage Swine out of the wood , and the wilde beestes of the feeld waste it and devoure it ? ô GOD of Warr , com look vpon , I pray thee , out of Heauen , and behold , and visit this Vine , & the Stock which thy right hand hath planted ; and vpon the SONNE which thou hast confirmed to thy self , which are burnt with fire as of a purgeing , and perish with thy chideing Countenance . Let thy Hand bee vpon all human men of thy Right hand , which thou hast confirmed vnto thee , that wee may not slip back from thee , quicken vs to call vpon thy NAME , ô ETERNALL , GOD of Hostes , & Guid vs with the Shineing of thy COVNTENANCE that wee may be safe . LXXXI . For the Cheeff vpon the Git Instrument , A Psalm of ASAPH . SOVND out to our MIGHTY GOD of STRENGTH . Sing aloud to the GOD of Jacob , take vp the Psaltery , and take the taber , the sweet harp and the Viol , and at our feast-dayes , in the new-moones appointed ; blow the Trumpet : for that was a prescribe-ed custom of the GOD of Iacob vnto Israel , hee set it a TESTIMONY in Ioseph , of his going out against the Land of Egypt . I heard Lips that I knew not , hee whos shoulders I took from the burden , and his handes went from the basket , in distresse thou didst call , & J released thee ; I answered thee in secret thunder , & tryed thee at the waters of Meribah surely : Hear , O thou my People of Israel , and I will protest of thee , if thou wilt hear mee ; that ther bee no strange GOD within thee , neither wilt fall down to worship any forain GOD : I the ETERNALL , thy GOD which brought thee out of the Land of Egypt ; open thy mouth wide , and I will fill it . But my People Israel , would not hearken to my VOYCE , nor consent vnto mee ; and I let them goe in the torment of their mindes , and walk in their own counsells . If Israel had hearkened to mee , and had walked in my wayes : J would had soon abased their Enimyes , and layed my hand on their foes . The Haters of the ETERNALL had been devoteed to him ; and their time should had lasted for Ever , and hee would had fed him with wheaten flower , and I would had satisfyed thee from the Hony rock . LXXXII . A Psalm of ASAPH . GOD standeth cheeff , in the Assembly of GOD , and is IVDGE among the Godes themselves . Why will you doe wrong JVDGEMENT , and accept the face of the vvicked ones Surely ? Iudge yee the Empty and the fatherlesse , the oppressed and poor-man with Iust IVDGEMENT : Free and deliuer the Empty , and Needy out of the handes of the VVicked . But they know nothing , nor vnderstand any thing , they walk in darknes , that all the foundations of the Erth are moved . I sayd , Yee are Godes , and I call yee all the Children of the Most Highe ; but like men shall yee dye , and fall like any one of the Prince-es . Vp thou , O GOD , and Iudge the Earth , for thou hast inheritance in all Nations . LXXXIII . A Psalm Song of ASAPH . O GOD , bee not thou silent ; hold not thy peace , nor sit thou still , ô ALLMIGHTY one . For , behold , thine ENIMYES that hate thee , make a noyse and hold vp the head : they take crafty counsell against thy People , and consult against thy Preserved . They say , Come let vs cut them off , from a Nation , that the NAME of Israel bee never remembred more , for they consult in their mindes together , and make a Covenant against thee . The Tabernacles of Edom and Moab , and the Ismaelites , and them of Hagar , Gebal and Ammon and Amalek , and Phelistia with the Inhabitantes of Tyre , yea Assur also is ioyned with them , and wear a helping Arme to the Children of Lot surely . Doe thou to them as thou didst to Midian : as thou didst to Sisera & Iabin at the River Qishon , that wear smitten in Endor , and became dong for the Land ; make their Prince-es like Oreb and Zeeb , and all their Elect like Zebah and Zalmunah . Which sayd , Let vs get vs the possession of GODS fair Habitation . O GOD , make them like dust , and like chaff before the winde ; as fire-y flames burne and inflame the Hills and the Forest : so pursue thou them with thy Tempest , and with thy Whirlwinde make them sore afrayed . Fill their face-es with scorching , when men seek thy NAME , ô ETERNALL ; let them bee terribly abashed and vtterly confounded , and perish for ever more . That they may knowe that thy NAME onely , ô ETERNALL , is the Soveraigne NAME over all the Earth . LXXXIV . For the cheeff vpon the Git , A Psalm of the Sonnes of Corah . O Warlike ETERNALL , how lovely are thy dwellings ? yea my soule is spent with longing for the courtes of the ETERNALL , my hart and my flesh , to sound out to my liuing GOD. Both the sparrow hath found an house , and the swallow a nest ( thine Altars ) for her to lay her yong ones . O warlike ETERNALL , and my King and GOD. Happy are thos that dwell in thy house ; that they may ever praise thee surely . Happy are the men that haue their STRENGTH in thee , and thy plaine Wayes in their hartes . They that travailed in the Vale of Baca , made a fountain of it ; yea the raine covered it with blessings . They went stronger and stronger , whē they appeered before GOD being present in Sion . O thou ETERNALL , ô thou GOD of Warr , hear my Prayer , hear mee , ô thou GOD of Iacob Surely . O GOD our Shield , see and behold the face of thine Annoynted ; for a day one spendeth in thy Courtes and in the House of my GOD , I chuse better then a thousand dayes cōtinuance in wicked Tabernacles . For the ETERNALL as a Sunn & Shield , the ETER : will giue grace & glory , and lessen noe good thing to them that walke vprightly . ô warlike ETER : happy is the Man that trusteth in thee . LXXXV . For the Cheeff of the Sonnes of Corah , A Psalm . O ETERNALL , that didest like thy Country , and broughtest againe the captivity of Iacob ; and forgavest the iniquity of thy People , and coveredst their sinnes surely , & contractedst all thy rage , and made-est it turne again from the kindling of thine Anger : ô GOD , our salvation ; bring vs again , and break off thine angry indignation with vs. Wilt thou bee for euer angry with vs , and wilt thou prolong thine Anger dureing all generations ? Wilt thou not come and revive vs again ? that thy People may reioyce in thee ? ô thou ETERNALL , shew vs thy Kindenes and graunt vs thy Salvation . ô let mee hear , what the Allmighty GOD , the ETERNALL will speak , that hee will speak peace vnto his People , and to his Gratious ones , and let them never returne to crookednes again . That his Salvation may bee neer vnto them that fear him , that GLORY may dwell in our Land , that KINDENES and TRVTH and IVSTICE and PEACE may meet , and kiss ech other , that TRVTH may bud out of the earth , & RIGHTEOVSNES look down out of Heaven , yea , that the ETERNALL may give bounty , and our Land yeeld her abundance of increase , that RIGHTEOVSNES may goe before him , and hee may put his feet in the Waye . LXXXVI . A Prayer , of David . O ETERNALL , incline thine eare and consider mee , for J am miserable and needy , preserve my life , for I am pittifull ; save thy Seruant , ô GOD , that putteth his trust in thee . O ETER : pitty mee , because I call dayly vpon thee . Cheer the soule of thy Servant , for vnto thee J open my minde . Because thou , O ETERN : art very full of pardon , and of great Kindenes to them that call vpon thee : O ETERN : hear my Prayer , and hearken vpon the Voyce of my Request . In the day of my distresse , when J call thee , O consider and hear mee . Among the Gods , ther is none like thee ; nor any Deeds like thine , ô LORD . All Nations shall come and Worship before thee , ô LORD , and glorify the NAME which hast don it , for thou art great , and thou onely , O GOD , doest Wonderfull thinges . Teach mee thy WAY , O ETERNALL , that I may walk in thy TRVTHE , and vnite my hart to the fear of thy NAME . That I may publish thee , ô LORD GOD , with all my hart , and Glorify the NAME for ever . Because thy KINDENES is great vpon mee , and thou hast deliuered mee from Hel● below , O GOD , when the proud , and a company of Tyrants rose against mee , and fought my life ; that set not GOD before them . Thou beeing , ô LORD , a Mercifull and a Gratious GOD , delaying Anger , Long-suffering and of very great Kindenes : O look vpon mee and pitty mee , giue thy Seruant strength & saue the SONNE of thine Hand-mayd . Shevv mee a Signe , of Good , that they hath hate mee may see it , and bee abashed , that thou , ô ETERNALL , doest help and Comfort mee . LXXXVII . Of the Sonnes of Corah , A Psalm Song . THE ETERNALL loue-eth the gates of Sion , whose foundation is in the Holly Hilles : above all the Dwellings in Iacob ; the moste-vnspeakable ones in thee , ô Citty of GOD Surely . Loe , when I mention Rahab and Babel to mine Acquaintance ( loe ) Palestina and Cush , This man was born there : also of Sion it shall bee sayd , This man was born in her , and Hee , in that , which the Most High established . The ETERNALL , when hee wrighteth vp his People , will Reckō , This man was born thear surely , and all my welles of Singers , and fountaines of Musicians are in thee . LXXXVIII . A Psalm Song for the Chorites : for the Cheeff over the Chore , to Sing : A Mascil by Heman the Ezrahite . O ETERNALL the GOD of my Salvation , when I cry for thee in the night , let my PRAYER come before thee , and turn thine eare to my loude SONET . My Soul is full of euills , and my life euen toucheth hell , J am counted vvith them that are going to the pitt , and am like a man vvithout any mighte , absolute among the dead , as thos that are slayne and lye in the graue , vvhom thou rememberest no more , and are cut off by thy hand . Thou hast put mee in the deep and dark pitt belovv , thy Chafeing is sunk vpon mee , and thou oppressest mee vvith all thy Breaches surely . Thou hast farr absented my familiar Acquaintance from mee , thou hast made mee an abhomination to them , I am close-ed vp , and can not get out , mine eyes are euen consumed , and driuen out by oppression , and I CALL on thee dayly , ô ETERNALL , and spread my palmes vnto thee , Wilt thou doe a wonder vpon the Dead , shall the deceased rise againe and confesse thee surely ? Shall thy LOV : KINDENES bee told in the grave , & thy FAYTHFVLLNES in the place of destruction ? shall thy Miracles be manifested in the dark , and thy wonderfull IVSTICE in the land of forgetfullnes ? that I , when I shoute vnto thee , & my PRAYER come early before thee ; why doest thou reject mee , and hide thy face from mee ? J beeing afflicted and yeelding vp the Ghost vvith trouble , vvith bearing thy Terrors am amaseed : thy sore Kindlings are vpon mee , thy terrible Passions press mee . They compasse about mee dayly like vvater , and goe all-about ouer mee together . Thou estrangest my Loueing freends from mee , & my familiar Acquaintance , vvith obscurity . LXXXIX . A Mascil , of Ethan the Ezrachite . I Will euer SING the KINDENESSES of the ETERNALL , & to all Generatiōs make known thy FAITHFVLLNES with my mouth . To wit , The Kindenes that the world was built by , and thy Faythfullnes which thou hast CONFIRMED in the Heavens , I have made a Covenant & sworne to my servant David : I will establish thy seed for euer , and build vp thy throne for all generatiōs surely . And let the Heaven confesse thy wonderfullnes , O ETERNALL , yea thy FAYTHFVLLNES in the Congregation of the Holly ones ; For who among the children of the GODES in the cloudy skyes , equalleth or may compare with the ETERNALL ? a terrible GOD in the counsell of the Holly ones , and dreadfull over all that be about him ? O ETERNALL , GOD of Warr , who is so mighty a GOD as thou art , and thy FAYTHFVLLNES about thee ? Thou rullest over the pride of the Sea , and allayest the waves thereof , when they rise , the maine Ocean thou beatest down like a slain man , & with thy strong Arme scatterest thine Enimyes . the Heavens are thine , yea the Earth is thine , the whole world , and all the Implements therof , for thou foundedst them ; the North and the South , thou hast created them , Tabor and Hermon to resound out thy Name . Thou hast a conquering Arme , and thy Right hand doth highly prevaile , the firm Base of thy Throne is Iustice and Iudgement , and Kindenes and Faythfullnes stand before thy face . Happy are the People that know Triumphing , and walk , ô ETER : in the Light of thy Countenaunce , & are dayly meery with thy NAME , and Exalted with thy IVSTICE . Because thou art the Ornament of their Strength , and by thy good will is our Horne Exalted . For our DEFENDOVR is the ETERNALLS , & our KING the Holly ones of Israel , whē as thou spakest in a VISION to thy GRATIOVS ONE and SAYEDST ; J haue leuyed & raysed and Ayde , & a Chose-en one out of the People aboue a VVORTHY . J haue found my Seruant Dauid and Anoynted him vvith my holly oyle , vvith vvhom my hand shall firmly bee , & mine ARME shall strengthen him . No Enimye or Iniurious childe shall intercept him , or oppresse him . J vvill beat dovvn his foes , & them that hate him , flat before him , & my FAYTHFVLLNES & LOV : KINDENES shall bee vvith him , and in my NAME shall his Horne bee exalted , & vpon the Sea & vpon the Riuers vvill J make his Right hand to bee . Hee shall CALL mee , O my Father , my GOD & Rock of my SALVATION , & I vvill make him my ELDEST-SONNE , & the SOVERAIGNE of all the Kinges of the Earth , J vvill make his seed , & his Throne to bee for Euerlasting like the dayes of heauen , & if his children forsake my Law , & vvalk not in my JVDGEMENTS , if they violate my PRESCRIPTIONS , & keep not my Commandements : I vvill visit their Transgressions vvith Rods , & their Jniquity vvith Scourges ; but my Lov : Kindenes vvill I not break off from him , neither deal falsly in my Faythfullnes . J vvill not violate my Covenant , nor change the thing that is gon out of my Lipps . I haue once SVVORNE in my HOLLYNES , and shall J lye vnto David ? His Seed shall bee for euer & his Throne as the Sunne before mee , hee shall be established as firme as the Moone , a faythfull witnes in the SKYE for euer surely . And thou lothe-est and drawest back , and art angry with thine ANOINTED . Thou avoydest the COVENANT of thy Servant , and defile-est his Garland one the ground ; thou hast broke-en down all his walles , and made a ruine of all his Fortifications , all Travailers by the way trample on him , hee is a Reproche vnto his Neighbours . Thou holdest vp the Right hand of his Foes , & make-est all his Enimyes glad , yea thou turnest the edge of his sword , and make-est it not to stand in the Battail , thou make-est it rest from his brightnes , and hast pulled down his Throne to the Ground . Thou hast shortened the dayes of his youth , and covered him over with Bashfullnes surely . How long wilt thou continue hid ; and shall thy hot Anger burn like fire ? ô Remember thou of what continuance I am , wherfor in vain hast thou create-ed all Human men ? what strong man is ther that shall not see death , or his life shall escape from the hand of hell , surely ? Wher are thy first KINDENESSES , ô Lord , which thou SWAREST to David , in thy FAYTHFVLLNES ? Remember , O LORD , the Reproche of thy Seruāts , which I put vp in my bosom , of all the great ones of the Nations wher with thine Enimyes have reproched , ô ETERNALL , wher with thine Enimyes haue reproched the Steps of thine Anoynted . Blessed bee the ETERNALL for ever . Again and Again . THE FOWRTH BOOK . XC . A Prayer of Moses , the Man of GOD. O LORD , thou hast been an Habitation for vs in all ages , before the Hilles wear brought foorth , and the Earth and whole Confusion had travailed in paine of birth , and from one generation to another thou hast been our GOD. Thou bringest miserable man to a fragment , and SAYEST , Com againe yee Children of men . For a thousand yeers in thy sighte , is as yeesterday that is past , and as a watch in the night . Thou rainest them down , and they are like a sleep , & in the morning hee is fresh like grasse , that in the morning florisheth fresh , and at evening is cut down and withered ; for in thine Anger , and thy Heat wee are terribly consume-ed . Thou settest our iniquityes before thee , and our youthfullnes in the lighte of thy presence ; for all our DAYES glaunce by in thy wrath , & wee spend our yeers like a thought . The Dayes of our yeers , ther are in them seventy yeers , and if by surmounting eighty yeers : their advantage is but pain and greeff ; for it is soon cut off and fled away , and who knowes the fearfullnes of thy wrath , what it is ? Make vs so know how to Nomber our dayes , that wee may bring our Hartes vnto wisdom . Return , O ETERN : quickly , and bee comfortable to thy Servantes , satisfy vs betime with thy LOV : KINDENES , that wee may chaunt out meryly all our dayes . Cheer vs according to the dayes thou hast afflicted vs , and the yeers that vvee haue seen euill , that thy VVORKE may Appeere vnto thy Seruants , and thy MAGNIFICENCE bee seen by their Children . And that the PLEASANTNES of the ETERNALL our GOD , may bee vpon vs : Confirme thou vpon vs the worke of our handes , yea confirm the very work of our handes . XCI . HEE which dwelleth in the covert of the moste HIGH , and lodgeth in the shadow of the ALL SVFFICIENT ; J SAY , vpon the ETERNALL my RELYE and FORTRESSE , and in my GOD vvill J trust ; For hee will deliuer thee from the snare , and miserable Plague of the fowler ; Hee will cover thee with his fethers , and thou shalt hive vnder his Wings , the Shield and Buckler of his TRVTH , thou shalt not bee afrayed of the Plague of FEARE that walketh in the night ; nor of the stinging SHOTT that flyeth and slayeth at the Noon-day . At thy side , and at thy Rightehand shall fall a thousand , and ten thousand , and it shall not come at thee ; but with thine eyes thou shalt beehold ; and see the payment of rhe wicked . Because thou , O ETERNALL , art my RELY ; and thou hast made the MOST HIGH thy HABITATION : noe Evill shall happen vnto thee , nor any Scourge come within thy TABERNACLE . For hee will giue his Angels CHARGE over thee , to KEEP thee in all thy Wayes . That they take thee vp in their handes : lest thou hit thy foot vpon a stone . Thou shalt trample vpon the fierce Lion , and tred vpon the venimous Dragon . Because hee hath imbrased mee , & knoweth my NAME : I will releeve him & rescue him , if hee call mee in Distresse ; I will hear him : I will release him & gloryfy him ; I will suffice him with length of dayes , and make him see my SALVATION . XCII . A Psalm Song , for the Sabath-day . IT is a GOOD thing to worship the ETERNALL , and to chaunt out thy moste Soveraigne NAME ; to tell of thy LOVEING KINDENES in the morning , & thy FAYTHFVLLNES in the night season : vpon the ten-stringed Violl , and vpon the Musicque on the Harp. Because thou hast made mee glad by thy WORKES : of thy HAND DEEDS will I SOVND out , O ETERNALL . How great are thy DEEDES , O ETERNALL ! thy JNVENTIONS are exceeding deep . The Bruteish man knoweth not , and the froward sot vnderstandeth not THJS . VVhen the VVICKED spring like a greene herb , and the vvorkers of Greeff doe florish , that they shall bee rooted out , euen for euerlasting , and thou suruiuest for euer , O ETERNALL ; ( for behold , thine Enimyes , O ETERN : for behold , thine Enimyes shall perish , and all the vvorkers of Greeff bee disseuered ) And thou holdest vp my Horne like an Vnicorn , and vvith fresh oyle J am all perfused . Mine eares shall heare vvhen naughty men arise against mee , & mine eyes shall look vpon my Tormentors . The Just man shall be green like a Palme tree , & grovv like a Cedar in Libanon . They shall spring , planted in the house & Courts of the ETER : our GOD , vvhile they are propagated , in gray old age they shall bee still fatt , and fresh to Declare the Vprightnes of the ETER : my ROCK , and that ther is noe VVRONG in him . XCIII . THE ETERNALL RAIGNETH indued with MAIESTY , the ETERNALL is indued , with MAJESTY , and girt with STRENGTH , yea the whole world is firmly established , and not to bee mooved , Thy THRONE is firm , ever since thou hast been from Everlasting . The Rivers lift vp , ô ETERNALL , the Rivers lift vp their voice on highe , they lift vp their beating , the great Waters with voice-es , the billowes of the Sea are exceeding lofty , but the the ETERNALL highely excelleth . Thy TESTJMONYES are very Faythfull , and the HOLLYNES of thy House much to be desired , O ETERNALL , as long as dayes doe last . XCIV . O ETERNALL , O GOD of Revenge , O GOD of revenge shine out , vp ô IVDGE of the Earth , & returne reward vpō the Proud. How long , O ETERNALL , how long shall the Wicked insult ? the WORKERS of GREEFF vaunt them selues , and buble out words of Arrogance , and beat down thy People , ô ETERNALL , and oppresse thine INHERITANCE ? slea the Widow and the Stranger , and murther the fatherles ones ? SAYJNG , Thou examinest not neither doth the GOD of Jacob vnderstand ? Vnderstand , yee moste brute People , and yee froward fooles when will yee lern ? Hee that planteth the eare , shall Hee not hear ? and Hee that formeth the Eye , shall not Hee see ? Hee that correcteth the Hethen and teacheth men Knowledge , shall not Hee reprove ? The ETERNALL knoweth that mens thoughtes are vaine . Happy is the man , whom thou teachest with thy Law : to giue him rest from euill dayes , till a pitt be digged for the Wicked . For , the ETERN : will not leave his People , nor forsake his INHERITANCE : because IVDGEMENT returns vnto JVSTICE , & all Vpright minde-ed after it . Who is to assist mee with Naughty men , with the workers of GREEFF who will stand to mee ? Except the ETERNALL had been my help , my Person had euen inhabited Silence . If I SAYD , My foot slippeth ; thy LOV : KINDENES , O ETERN : held mee vp , among the multitude of my thoughts vvithin mee . Thy CONSOLATIONS doe delight my Soul. Shall the THRONE of corruption have fellowship with thee ? & hee that formeth MISCHEEFF by decree ? that troupe against the IVST person , and condemn the innocent blood ? And the ETERNALL beeing my Fortification , and my GOD , the ROCK of my RELYE , let him render vpon them their GREEFF , and in their ovvne MISCHEEFF let the ETERNALL our GOD , destroy them . XCV . O Come , let vs sound out TRIVMPHS to the ETERNALL , the ROCK of our SALVATION , let vs come before him , and triumph to him with PSALMS of Thanks-offering . For hee is the gratest GOD , and a great King ouer all Godes . VVho hath the discoueryes of the Earth in his hand , and the Excellencyes of the Hilles are his . VVho ovveth the Sea for hee made it , & the Dry-land vvhich his handes formed . O come , let vs bow down and prostrat our selues , and kneel before the ETERNALL , that hath made vs , for hee is our GOD , and wee the PEOPLE and SHEEP of his owne hand feeding . To day when you hear his VOYCE harden not your hartes , as in the PROVOCATION , and as in the day of TEMPTATION in the Wildernes . VVhich your Fathers tempted mee , and tryed mee , though they savv my VVORKES . Forty yeers was I vexed with a Generation , which I SAYED , were a people that erred in their hart , and knew not my WAYES . Which , in my Anger , I swore , should not enter into my REST. XCVI . O SING yee to the ETERNALL a NEW SONG . Sing yee to the ETERN : all the Earth . Sing yee to the ETERN : and blesse his NAME , and Preach his SALVATION from day to day . Tell out his GLORY among the Hethen , and his Wonde●full WORKS among all people . Because the ETERN : is great , and very much to be PRAYSED , and to be Reverenced aboue all GODS . For all the GODS of the Nations are Idle-Idoles , but the ETERN : Made the Heavens . Worship and Honour is in his Presence , and in his Sanctuary STRENGTH & MAJESTY . Yeeld vnto the ETERNALL yee Nation-familyes , yeeld vnto the ETERNALL GLORY and STRENGTH , yeeld GLORY vnto the NAME of the ETERNALL . Take vp Presents and com into his Courtes , prostrate your selues to the ETERNALL in his stately Sanctuary , and tremble at his Presence all the Earth . TELL among the Heathen ; The ETERNALL RAIGNETH KING , ( and the whole world shall bee established , and not be moved ) that SENTENCETH Nations vprightely . Let the Heavens reioyce , and the Earth be glad , the Sea & his fullnes roare , the field leap and all that is in it , and the Trees of the wood TRIVMPH & SING , when hee cometh , when hee cometh to IVDGE the Earth : that with RIGHTEOVSNES Iudgeth the World ; and with his FAYTHFVLLNES the Nations thereof . XCVII . THE ETERNALL RAIGNETH KING ( let the Earth be glad and the multitude of Ilandes reioyce ) with a dark cloud round about him , RIGHTEOVS IVDGEMENT beeing the Firmnes of his Throne : fire shall goe before him , and shall flame round about his foes . His Lightenings lighten the world , that the Earth trembleth to see it . Mountaines melt like wax at PRESENCE of the ETERN : before the LORD of the whole Earth . The Heavens set foorth his IVSTICE , that all Nations may see his GLORY ; let all them , that serue Sculptures , and glory in Idle-Idoles bee abashed ; bow your selues downe to him all yee GODS . That Sion , when shee heareth it may reioyce , and all the Townes of Iudah bee glad ; because of the IVDGEMENT of the ETER : Because thou , ô ETERNALL , art SOVERAIGNE over all the Kinges of the Earth : and greatly surmountest overall GODS . Yee , that loue the ETERN : that keepeth the lives of his GRATIOVS ones , and delivereth them from the hand of the Wicked : hate euill . Ther is sown , to the IVST , and VPRIGHTE minded man , a JOYFVLL LIGHT ; ô yee JVST ONES reioyce in the ETERNALL , and celebrate his holly Remembrance . XCVIII . A PSALME . O Sing yee to the ETERNALL a NEW SONG , for that hee hath don Wonderfull Works . Hee whom his RIGHT HAND and HOLLY ARME hath holpen . The ETER : that hath made his SALVATION knovvn , and reuealed his RIGHTEOVSNES in the sight of the Heathen . That hath remembred his Lov : Kindenes , and Faythfullnes to the House of Jsrael , that all the Endes of the Earth haue seen the Salvation of our GOD. TRIVMPH to the ETERNALL , breake out aloud , and chaunt out Psalmes , play vnto the ETERNALL on the Harp ? vpon the Harp with an inchaunting voice . With the shrill soundes of the Trumpet , Triumph to the KING ETERNALL . Let the Sea and his fullnes roare , and the WORLD , and all that dwell therin , make anoyse , and Riuers clap their handes , and Hilles also sound out Triumphes before the ETERNALL , when hee cometh to Iudge the Earth ; That Iudgeth the world Iustly , and the Nations vprightly . XCIX . THE ETERNALL RAIGNETH KING inhabiting the Cherubs ; Let the Nations and the Earth tremble and stoop . The ETERNALL that is great in Sion , & that is highe aboue all Nations ; let them celebrate his great and reverend NAME which is holly . Because thou the KING that loueth JVDGEMENT and STRENGTH : confirmest Righte : and dost Just JVDGMENT in Iacob . Exalt yee the ETERNALL our GOD , and prostrate your selues at his Holly foot-stoole . Moses and Aaron , and Samuel , among his Priests , and them that call vpon his NAME : called vpon the ETERNALL , and hee Answered them . He spake vnto them in a CLOVDY STILE , and they kept his TESTIMONYES and PRESCRIPTS which hee gaue them , Thou O ETERNALL , our GOD , didst answer them ; and wast a GOD of Pardon to them , beeing about to revenge their Heynous workes . Exalt the ETERNALL our GOD , and prostrate your selues at his holly Hill , For the ETERNALL our GOD is holly . C. A Psalm of Thanksgiuing . SING yee Triumphes to the ETERNALL , all the Earth , serue the ETERNALL with REIOYCEING , and com before him with a cheerfull SONET . Knovv yee , the ETERNALL is GOD , and Hee that hath made vs , and vvee are his ; his PEOPLE , and Sheep of his PASTVRE . Com vvithin his Gates vvith THANKS , and into his Courtes vvith PRAYSE , and SET FORTH and BLESSE his NAME ; because the LOV : KINDENES of the ETERNALL is bountifull for euer ; and his FAYTHFVLLNES vntill all Generations . CI. Of DAVID , A Psalm . I Will sing a Psalme of KINDENES and IVDGEMENT vnto thee , ô ETERNALL , that when thou shalt come vnto mee ; I may instruct in the perfect WAY ; and walk in the soundnes of my hart , with in my House . I will haue noe naughty thing in my sight , to make declineings I hate , and with mee it shall not steek . A froward hart shall depart from mee ; and an euill hart I will not know . Hee that accuseth his neighbour privily , him will I put away ; who is of high lookes , & wyde of hart ; him I cannot abide . Mine eyes are vpon the FAYTHFVLL of the Earth , to dvvell vvith mee : & hee that vvalketh in a perfect VVaye ; he shall serue mee . Hee that worketh deceipt shall not within my House , and hee that speaketh falshoods , shall not bee established in my sight . I will soon dissolve all WICKED ones of the earth , whē I shall cut off from the Citty of the ETERNALL all Workers of Greeff . CII . A Prayer of the Poore , when hee fainted , & powered out his Complaint before the ETERNALL . O ETERNALL , hear my PRAYER , and let my SHOVTING come vnto thee . Hide not thy FACE from mee , when I am in Distresse ; turne thine eare vnto mee , and heare mee quickly ; when I CALL . Because my dayes are consumed in smoke ; and my bones on fire like a brand , my hart is strooken and withered like an Herb , that I forget the eating of my meat . By my loud sighing my bones ste●k vnto my skinn . I am like an OWLE of the Wildernes , and a skrich - OWLE of Waste place-es . I am like a folitary bird , watching vpon the House top . All the day , doe mine ENIMYES revile mee , and my DEFAMERS coniure against mee . That I eat Ashes like bread , and mingle my drinke with Teares ; because of thy fomeing Indignaton : for thou hast cast mee away . My dayes are like a declineing shadow , and I am withered like an herb ; and thou , ô ETERNALL , remainest for ever , and thy REMEMBRANCE for all Generations : ô vp , and haue MERCY vpon Sion , for the SETTIME is come to haue COMPASSION on it ; because thy Servantes like the stones thereof , and hold the dust thereof gratious . That the Heathen & all Kingdomes of the earth may fear thy GLORYOVS NAME , ô ETERN : ô let the ETER : that hath built Sion , appeere in his GLORY : & regard the PRAYER of the SHAKEEN , & not despise their Prayer . That this may be written for an other generation , and that the People to be borne hearafter , may prayse the ETERN : O let the ETERNALL look out of Heauen his holly HIGHTH , and look down vpon the Earth : To hear the Prisoners groneing , and to let a brode the CONDEMNED ; to tell out the NAME of the ETERN : in SION , and thy PRAYSE in JERVSALEM ; vvhen the Nations and Kingdomes are gathered together , to Serue the ETER : Hee that beat dovvn my Strength in the vvay , and shortned my dayes ; J SAY , O my ALLMIGHTY GOD , take mee not avvaye in the midst of my dayes ; and thy yeers dureing all Generations . O thou , that vvast before the Earth vvas founded , and the Heauens the vvork of thy Handes ; vvhich shall perish , and thou shallt remaine ; and they all shall goe old like a Garment , and thou shallt shift them , and they shall be put off like clothes , and thy yeers are neuer consumeed : let the Children of thy Seruantes abide still before thee , & their Seed bee established in thy PRESENCE . CIII . Of DAVID . BLESSE the ETERNALL , ô my SOVL , & all my FORCES blesse his holly NAME , ô BLESSE the ETERN : ô my SOVLE , and forget not his GOOD DEEDS . That Pardoneth and healeth all thy greevous Iniquity , that Redeemeth thy life from the Pit , & Gardeth thee with KINDENES and MERCY , that Supplyeth thy youth with the Goodnes of thine ORNAMENTS , as an Egle reneweth her self . The ETERNALL that doth Just IVDGEMENT to all the oppressed : and maketh his Wayes knowen to Moses , and his Excellent WORKES to the Children of Israel . The ETERNALL is mercifull & gratious , and patient and of great KINDENES ; hee vvill not striue perpetually , nor keep contention for euer : hee hath not don vnto vs according to our sinnes ; nor bestovved vpon vs according to our Jniquityes : but as the Heauens are highe aboue the Earth : so excelleth his KINDENES ouer them that fear him . As farr as the East is from the VVest : so farr hath hee put avvay our Transgression from him . As a Father hath Mercy vpon his Children : so hath the ETERNALL mercy vpon them that fear him . Because hee Knovveth our CREATION , and is mindefull that vvee are but Dust. A Sorrovvfull Mans dayes are like grass , & as a flovver of the Feeld ; so hee florisheth : but the VVinde passeth ouer it , and neither hee , nor his Place is any more to bee discerned . But the LOVING KINDENES of the ETERNALL is from age to age vpon them that fear him ; and his RIGHTEOVSNES to their childrens children : to them that keep his COVENANT , & remember to doe his VISITATIONS . The ETERNALL that hath confirmed his THRONE in Heauen , and his KINGDOME in all Domination : Blesse the ETERNALL yee his ANGELS , that haue mightey Power to doe his COMMANDEMENTS , and to hearken vpon the VOYCE of his WORD . Blesse the ETERNALL , all his EXCERCISE-ERS , and MINISTERS that doe his will. Blesse the ETERNALL all his WORKES in all places of his Dominion : BLESSE the ETERNALL , ô my SOVLE . CIV . BLESSE the ETERNALL , ô my SOVL , ô ETERN : my GOD , thou art exceeding great , and CLOTHED with REVEREND MAIESTY : Putting on the LIGHTE as a Garment , and spreading the HEAVENS as a Couertain . That maketh his CHAMBER FLOORES vpon the vvaters , and his RIDEING vpon the Cloudes , and goeth vpon the VVINGES of the vvinde making the VVINDES his MESSENGERS , and Flameing fire his MJNISTERS . That founded the Earth vpon her stayes , that it can not be mooued vvorld vvithout end . VVHOM the Deep couereth like a Garment , and the VVaters that did stand aboue the Hilles ; but at the chideing VOJCE of thy THVNDER they make haste to flye ( the Hilles ascending , and the Beaches descending ) to the Place vvhich thou hast founded for them , and hast set a bound that they shall not passe , nor return again to couer the Earth . That sendeth the Springs into the Brookes , running betvveen the Hilles : that vvater all the beasts of the feeld , & the vvilde beasts breake their thirst , by vvhich the birdes of Heauen haue their dvvelling , and charm out of the thick boughes . That from his CHAMBER FLOORES vvatereth the Hilles , that vvith the fruit of thy VVORKES the Earth may be satisfied . That make-eth grasse to spring for bease , and herbes , for the seruice of Men , that hee may bring foorth bread out of the Earth , & vvine to cheer a Sorrovvfull-mans hart , to make a gladsom Countenance vvith oyle , and bread to sustein a sorrovvfull-mans hart , that they may bee satisfied vvith the Ceders of Libanon , the Trees of the ETERNALL , vvhich hee hath planted . VVher the birdes doe make their nestes ; and the Firr Trees are the House of the Stork : the highe Hilles are for the Roe-deer , and Rockes a succour for the Cunnys . Hee made the Moon for Seasons , & the Sunn to knovv his going dovvn ; thou puttest foorth Darknes and it is Night . VVherin , all vvilde-beasts creep abroad ( the young Lions roaring for Prey ) to seek their meat from the Almighty : VVhen the Sunn riseth they are couched together in their dens : that man may goe foorth to his vvork , and to his Husbandry till the Euening . Hovv many are thy VVORKES , ô ETERN : all that thou hast don by VVISDOM ? the Earth is full of thy Indevour . The great and vvide reaching SEA , vvher are creeping liuing Creatures small & great , vvithout number . VVher Ships doe goe , and LEVIATHAN that thou hast formed to sport therin . vvhich all doe hope vpon thee , to giue thē their meat in his time . Thou openest thy hand and giue-est them : and they gather and are vvell Satisfied . Thou hide-est thy FACE , and they are astonyed , thou take-est avvaye their breth , and they yeld vp the Ghost , and turn again to their Dust. Thou sendest out thy SPIRIT and they are CREATED again , and thou Renewest the face of the Earth . That the GLORY of the ETER : may be for euer , and the ETER : REIOYCE in his WORKES , which looketh vpon the EARTH and it trembleth , and toucheth the MOVNTAINES and they Smoke : J will sing Psalmes vnto the ETERN : my GOD , as long as I live ; and because my SPEECH of him is sweet ; I will REIOYCE in the ETERN : That VVicked Sinners be consumed out of the Earth , and be no more therin . BLESSE the ETERN : ô my SOVLE , the ETERNALL be PRAYSED . CV . WORSHIP yee the ETERNALL , CALL vpon his NAME , make KNOWEN his EXCELLENT ACTS among the Nations , sing Psalmes vnto him , and speak of all his Wonderous Works ; Boast yee in his holly NAME . Let their hart bee meery that seek the ETER : Inquire for the STRENGTH of the ETERN : and euermore seek his FACE . Remember the WONDERFVLL MIRACLES which hee hath don , & the STATVTS of his mouth , yee Seed of his Servant Abraham , his chosen yee Children of Iacob . The very ETER : our GOD his STATVTES are in all the Earth , The Word of his COVENANT which hee REMEMBRED for ever , and commanded to a thousand Generations , which hee made with Abraham ; and his othe vnto Isaac , and made it stand for a DECREE to Jacob , and to Israel an Everlasting COVENANT . SAYING : Vnto thee will I giue the Land of Canaan , the line of your Inheritance . When they wer small of Number , and few , and Strangers in it . When they went from Nation to Nation , and from one Kingdom to another People : Hee Suffered noe man to oppresse them , and REPROVE-ED Kinges for them : Touch yee not mine ANOYNTED , doe my PROPHETS no harme . When hee called a Famine vpon the Land , and brake all the Stay of bred : hee sent one before them , evē Ioseph that was sold for a slaue , whose feet they hurt in the Stocks , that the iron went to his Soul. Till the time the WORD of the ETERNALL came , and his SAYING tryed him , the King sent to loose him , and the Ruller of the People to inlarge him , and made him Lord of his House , and Ruller ouer all his Provision . To instruct his Prince-es in his will , and to teache his Elders wisdon . When Israel was com into Egypt , and Iacob was a Strange-er in the Land of Ham , and his People were very fruitfull , and hee had made them stronger then their Besiegers : hee had turned their harts to hate his People , and to conspire against his Servantes : Hee sent Moses his Servant and Aaron whom hee chose ; that they might bring among them , word of his Signes ; and MJRACLES in the Land of Ham. Hee sent darknes and made it dark , and they disobeyed not his commandements , hee turned their Waters in to blood , and killed their fish , their Land crauled full of froges in their Kings Chambers . Hee commaunded , and Swarmes of Flyes , and Lice came in all their borders , hee gave them showers of haile and flameing fire in their Land , hee smote their Vines , and their Fig-trees , and broke the Trees of their borders . Hee commanded , and ther came Chafers and Caterpillars innumerable , and did eat vp all the green grass of their Land , and devoured the fruit of their Ground . And smote all the first born of their Land ; the Prime of all their Strength , and brought them foorth with Siluer and Gold , and not one feeble Man was among their Tribes . Egypt vvas glad of their goeing out , because their Terror vvas fallen vpon them . Hee spred a Cloude for a VAJLE , and fire to giue Lighte in the nighte . They requested and hee brought Quailes ; and satisfied them vvith Bread of Heauen . Hee opened the Rock , and the vvaters issued out , and rann like a Riuer in the Dry place-es , for hee Remembred his Sacred VVORD vvith his Seruant Abraham , and brought foorth his Chosen PEOPLE vvith Joy and TRIVMPH ; and Gave them the Countryes of the Heathen , and the paines of the Nations to possesse . That they may keep his PRESCRIPTS , and obserue his LAVV. The ETERNALL be praised . CVI. PRAISE the ETERNALL GOD : ô Worship the ETERNALL , for his GOODNES , and because his LOVEING-KINDENES is for euer . Who is ther , that can Particular out his VIRTVES , & sound out all his PRAISE ? HAPPY are they that obserue RIGHTE , and hee that doeth IVSTICE at at all times . ô ETERN : think vpon mee , and visit mee with the favourable SALVATION of thy People , that I may ioyfully look vpon the JOY and WELTH of thy chosen People , and be come an Actor of thy PRAYSES with thine INHERITANCE . VVee haue Sinned vvith our Fathers , and don frovvardly and vvickedly . Our Fathers considered not , and thought not vpon thy vvonderfull and great KINDENESSES in Egypt , and they Rebelled at the Sea-side , by the Red Sea , and for his NAMES sake he saued them , to make knovvn his VIRTVE : hee Rebuked the Red Sea that it vvas dry as a vvildernes , and lad them in the DEEPS . And Saued them and quit them from the hands of their Heynous Enimyes , and the vvaters ouervvelmed their Besiegers , that not one of them remained . And they beleeued his VVORD , and sung his PRAYSE . They soon forgate his DOINGS , and attended not to his COVNSELL , and longed a longing , and tempted the ALMIGHTY GOD in the vvast VVildernes . And hee gaue them their Request , and hee sent a REPJNEJNG in their mindes , and they freated at Moses in the Camp , and at Aaron the Holly one of the ETERNALL , that the Earth opened and svvallovved vp Dathan , and ouercouered the Assembly of Abiram , and fire kindled in their Assembly , and the Flames burnt vp the VVICKED ONES . They made a Molten Calf in Horeb , and Worshiped it , and change-ed their GLORY for the Feature of an Oxe that eateth grasse . They forgat GOD their SAVIOVR , that did GREAT THJNGES in Egypt , and WONDERFVLL THINGS in the Land of Ham , and TERRIBLE THJNGES at the RED SEA. And hee thought to smite them , but Moses his chosen , stood in the Breach before him , to turn again his Heat from destroying . And they Refused the DELIGHTFVLL Land , and beleeued not his WORD , and Murmured in their Tentes , and hearkened not on the VOJCE of the ETERNALL , and hee took vp his Hand against them , to overthrow them in the Wildernes , and to overthrow their Seed , and Skater them among the Countryes of the Heathen . And they wear yoked to Baal-Peor , and did eat the Sacrifice-es of the Dead . And they VEXED with their DEVISES that the Plague break out among them , and Phineas stood vp and prayed , and the PLAGVE was restrained ; and it was counted RIGHTEOVSNES to him for all Generations for euer . And they ANGERED at the Waters of Meribhah , that hee punished MOSES for them . When they VEXED his Minde , and hee Muttered with his Lips. They smote not the Nations vvhich the ETERNALL commanded them , and they vvere mingled among the Heathen , and lerned their VVORKES , and serued their Idoles , and they vvear a SNARE vnto them , and they Sacrifice-ed their Sonnes and their Daughters to DESTROYERS , they povvred out INNOCENT blood , The blood of their Sonnes and Daughters , which they Sacrifice-ed to the Idoles of Canaan ; That the Earth vvas couered vvith Blood , and they vvere poluted vvith their WORKS going a vvhoreing in their ENTERPRISE-ES . And the ANGER of the ETERNALL kindled against his People , and hee abhorred his INHERITANCE , and gaue them into the hands of the Heathen , and they that hate-ed them , vvear commanders ouer them , & their Enimyes oppressed them , and they vvear humbled vnder their hand . Many times hee deliuered them , vvhen they had Vexed him vvith their COVNSELLS , that they vvear brought lovv for their Jniquity , and considered vvhen they vvere in Distresse , by his hearing their Crye , and Remembred his Couenant to them , & and vas Comfortable according to his great KINDENESSES , and took them to MERCY before all their Captiuers . Saue vs , O ETERNALL our GOD , and gather vs from among the Heathen to worship thy HOLLY NAME ; to delighte our selues in thy PRAYSE . Blessed bee the ETERNALL the GOD of Israel , from Everlasting and to Everlasting , and let all the People say , Amen . The ETERNALL be praysed . THE FIFTH BOOK . CVII . WORSHIP the ETERNALL for his GOODNES , and LOVEING KINDENES that is for euer . Let the RANSOMED of the ETERNALL , vvhom hee hath ransomed from the hand of the Tormentor , and gathered from the Countryes , East , VVest , North and South ; that vvandered in a Desolation , vvithout a vvay , in the VVildernes , and found noe dvvelling Citty , hungry & thirsty that their soules fainted in them , and they Cryed to the ETERNALL in their Distresse , and hee deliuered them out of their Streits , and directed them a right vvay to goe vnto a dvvelling Citty : SAY , Let men confesse the wonderfull KINDENES of the ETERNALL to the children of men . Because hee satisfyed the thirsty Soul , & the hungry soul hee vvell filled . Let THEM that dvvelt in obscure Darknes , PRISONERS , afflicted vvith iron , because they disobeyed the SAYINGS of the ALLMJGHTY , and set lighte by the COVNSELLS of the moste HIGH ; That hee brought dovvn their harts vvith Sorrovv : and they fell and had noe Helper , and they Cryed vnto the ETERNALL in their Distresse , and hee holp them out of their streit troubles , hee brought them out of the obscure DARKENES , and brake their BANDES : CONFESSE the wonderfull KINDENES of the ETERNALL to the children of men . Because hee brake the brasen dores , and cut off the bars of iron . FOOLES that by meanes of their transgressions , and Jniquityes are afflicted , that their soules abhorre all meat , and are euen at deathes dore , and they Crye vnto the ETERNALL in their DISTRESSE , and hee helpeth them out of their streit troubles : That sendeth his VVORD and healeth them , and reskevveth them from their Destructions : Let THEM confesse the wonderfull KINDENES of the ETERNALL to the children of men . Let them Sacrifice sacrifice-es of THANKS , and declare his VVORKS vvith TRIVMPH . They vvhich goe to Sea in Ships , and doe buissines in the Great Waters ; They vvhich see the Wonderfull Works of the ETERNALL in the Deep , Hovv hee commandeth a Stormvvinde to rise , and it raiseth the vvaues therof , that they mount vp to Heauen , and descend dovvn to the Deeps , that their Soules doe melt vvith Misery , they runn about reeling like dronken men , and all their skill is spent , and they Crye vnto the ETERNALL in their Distresse , and hee bringeth them out of their streit troubles . Hee calmeth the Storm , and their vvaues are still , and they reioyce vvhen they are quiet , and hee bringeth them to the Heauen vvher they vvould bee : Let THEM confesse the wonderfull KINDENES of the ETERNALL to the children of men ; And let them exalte him in the Congregation of the commun People , and praise him in the Seates of the ELDERS . That transposeth riuers to a VVildernes , and fountaines of vvater to a thirsty-place , a fruitfull Land to barennes , for the Naughtines of them that dvvell in it ; that transposeth a VVildernes into vvater-pooles , and a dry land into Fountaines of vvater : and ther hee setleth the hungry , and they build Cittyes of Habitation , & sovv fieldes & plant Vineyardes , that may yeeld fruitfull reuenues , and blesseth them , that they increase exceedingly , & their beasts hee make-eth not a few , vvhen they vvear fevv and oppressed vvith constreint and misery , and sorrovv : Povvring contempt vpon Princeces , and made them vvander in the rude Desert vvith out a vvay , and hee releeued the Needy out of Affliction , and made them familyes like flocks of sheep , Vprighte-men reioyceed to see it , and wrong dealing stopped her mouth , bee that is Wise , both will observe these thinges , and they will vnderstand thes KINDENESES of the ETERNALL . CVIII . A Psalm Song of DAVID . MY hart is ready , ô GOD , I will sing Psalmes , yea , my GLORY ( vp Lute and Harp ) I will awake betime . I will celebrate thee among the Nations , and chaunt thee out among the People , because the greatnes of thy KINDENES is aboue the Heauens , and thy FAYTHFVLLNES is euen to the cloudes . Bee thou exalted , O GOD , aboue the Heavens , and thy GLORY ouer all the Earth . That thy beloued ones may be released , saue vs with thy right hand and hear vs. GOD SPEAKE in his Sanctuary ( I was glad ) I vvill diuide Shechem , and meat out the vale of Succoth , Giliad shall be mine , and Manasses shall bee mine , Ephraim shall bee my Cheeff strength , Judah shall bee my Lavv-maker , Moah my vvashing pot , vpon Edom vvill I cast off my shoes , vpon Palestina vvill I triumph . Who conducted mee to the Citty Mibhzar , who brought mee to the strong Citty Edom ? didst not thou , ô GOD , that dost giue vs the back , and goest not foorth with our Armyes , O GOD ? ô giue vs help in distresse , for vaine is the help of man. Through GOD wee shall doe prosperously , and hee will tread down our Besiegers . CIX . For the Cheeff , A PSALM of DAVID . O GOD of my PRAYSE bee thou not Deaf , for the deceiptfull mouthes of the Wicked are opened vpon mee , and with false tongs they talk with mee , and with hatefull wordes goe they about mee , and oppugne mee for nothing ; for my loue they are against mee , and I PRAYE them , and they put vpon mee evill for good , and hatred for my Love. Set over him a Wicked man , and let the ADVERSARY stand at his right hand , and when hee is iudged , let him goe out a Wicked man , and his PRAYER be sinfull , let his dayes bee few , and another take his Oversight ; let his children be fatherles , and his wife a Widow , and let his Children goe about asking and seeking , from their desolate dwellings . Let the Creditor intangle all hee hath , & forrein Enimyes make a Prey of his labours . Let him haue none to extend KINDNES , let ther be none to pitty his Fatherless ones , let his Posterity be cut off , and in another Generation , let their Name be clean blotted out , Let the iniquity of his Fore-fathers be remembred vvith the ETERNALL , and his Mothers sinn not blotted out , Let them bee allvvayes before the ETERNALL , that hee may cut off their Remembrance out of the Earth . Because hee remembred not to doe KINDENES , and pursued the afflicted and needy one , to sley him of a contrite hart , and loued cursing ; Let it com vnto him , and had noe delight in blessing ; let it be far from him . And let him put on Cursing as his Robe , let it soke into him like vvater , and like oyle into his bones , let it bee to him like a vvrapping vveed , and for a girdle to gird it allvvayes to him . Let this bee the Revvard of them , that STAND VP against mee , from the ETERNALL , and speake ill against my PERSON . And thou , ô ETERNALL , ô my LORD , shew mee for thy Names sake thy Favour , and for thy Bountifull KINDENES deliuer mee , because J am miserably afflicted , and my hart is slaine vvithin mee , as a Shadovv at his declineing I am gon , I am driuen avvay like locusts . my knees are feeble vvith fasting , my flesh denyeth fatnes , and J , vvhich am a skorn to them , and they vvag their heads vvhen they see mee : ô ETERNALL my GOD. Help mee , and according to thy LOVING KJNDENES saue mee . That they may know , that thou , O ETERNALL , with thy hand hast don this very thing . When they reuile doe thou blesse , when they rise vp , let them be confounded , that thy Servant may reioyce ; let them that stand vp against mee , put on shame , and wear their Confusion like an vpper garment , that with my mouth I may exceedingly set foorth the ETERNALL , and prayse him in the midst of many . Because hee standeth at the right hand of the Destitute man , to saue him from the Condemners of his life . CX . Of DAVID , A Psalm . THE ETERNALL SAYETH to my LORD , Sit thou at my right hand , vntill I set thine Enimyes thy foot stoole . The ETERNALL will send the rod of thy STRENGTH out of Sion , and Rulle thou in the midst of thine Enimyes . Hee will send thee thy PRINCIPALL People in the day of thy Battail , the timelines of the Womb , and dew of thy youth , in thy seemly Sanctuary . The ETERNALL hath SWORNE , and will not repent , Thou shalt bee a Priest for euer like MELCHISEDEK . By thy right hand the LORD will wound Kinges , when hee is angry ; hee will Iudge among the Hethen his fill of Bodyes : Hee will wound the Head over the Land of Rabbah . Hee drank of the river in the way , therfor shall hee hold vp his head . CXI . PRAISE the ETERNALL in the Counsell and Assembly of VPRIGHT men , I will worship the ETERNALL with all my hart . Great are the WORKES of the ETERNALL , and to be sought out with all their DELIGHTS . WORSHIP and HONOVR is his VVORKE , and his RIGHTEOVSNES that standeth for euer . Hee hath made remembrance of his WONDERFVLL WORKES , The ETERNALL beeing GRATIOVS and MERCIFVLL . Hee gaue food to them that fear him , and was euer mindefull of his COVENANT . Hee declare-ed the MIGHTYNES of his WORKES to his People , to giue them the JNHERITANCE of the Heathen . The Works of his handes are Truthe and Iudgement , & all his Precepts Faithfull . They are established for euerlasting Eternity being made vvith TRVTH and PLAYNENES . Hee sent Redemption to his people , his Couenant , that hee commaunded for euer : holly and reuerend be his Name . The beginning of Wisdome is the Feare of the ETERNALL , and a good Vnderstanding haue all they that doe them ; His Prayse to stand for euer . CXII . PRAISE the ETERNALL : Happy is the man that Feareth the ETERN : and greatly delighteth in his Commandemēts ; his Seed shall be mighty in the Earth , and the Generatiō of Vpright men shall be blesse-ed . He shall haue vvelth & Riches in his house , and his Righteousnes shall indure for euer . In darknes ther ariseth Light for Vpright men , the Gratious the Mercifull and Iust man ; that a good man beeing Pittifull and lending , may mainteine his Substance vvith Judgement , because the Iust shall neuer be mooued , hee shall be had in perpetuall Remembrance , of any ill Nevves hee shall not bee afrayed , his hart is firme and confident in the ETERNALL . His hart is established , that hee shall not bee afrayed , vvhen hee looketh vpon his Foes . Hee DISTRIBVTETH & GIVETH to the Needy ones , & his Righteousnes shall last for euer . And his HORNE shall be highe in GLORY , vvhen the VVicked man seeth it , hee shall freat , and gnash his teeth , and melt , The Longing of Wicked men shall perish . CXIII . PRAISE the ETERNALL , Praise yee , ô Servantes of the ETERNALL , praise the NAME of the ETERNALL : let the NAME of the ETERNALL be blessed from this time , till for euer , from the Riseing of the Sunn , to his Goeing downe , let the NAME of the ETERNALL be praised . The ETERNALL that is highe aboue all Nations , and his GLORY is aboue the Heauens . VVho is like the ETERNALL our GOD ; that hath his Dvvelling a highe in the Heauens , and humbleth to look vpon the Earth ? That raiseth the empty man out of the dust , and setteth vp the Needy from the donghill , to make him sit vvith Prince-es , and vvith the Principall of his People , makeing the barren vvoman , to inhabit the House , and to be a joyefull Mother of children , the ETERNALL be praised . CXIV . WHEN Israel came out of Egypt , and the House of Iacob from the Barbarous People , and Iury was his SANCTVARY , and Israel his DOMINION : the Sea saw and fled , and Iordan turned back : The Mountaines DAVNCE-ED like Lambes , and the little Hilles , like yong Sheep : What is the matter with thee , ô Sea , that thou fledst , & thou Iordan , that thou turnedst back ? yee Mountaines that yee daunceed like Lambes , and yee little Hilles like yong Sheep ? For the Presence of the LORD ( tremble ô Earth ) for the Presence of the GOD of Jacob : that turneth the hard-stony rock into springing vvater pooles . CXV . NOT vnto vs , ô ETERNALL , not vno vs giue GLORY , but vnto thy NAME , for thy LOVEING KINDENES and thy TRVTH . Wherfore should the Hethen SAY , VVher ( I pray you ) is their GOD ? and our GOD is in Heauen , & doth vvhatsoeuer hee pleaseth ? Their Images of siluer and gold , the work of mens handes : haue mouthes and speak not , they haue eyes and see not , and eares and hear not , and noses and smell not , and wag not with their handes , nor walk with their feet , they haue noe talk in their throates . So be their makers and euery one that trusteth in them . Israel trust thou in the ETERNALL , whose help and Defence hee is . Thou House of Aaron , trust yee in the ETERNALL , whose help and Defense hee is . Yee that fear the ETERNALL , trust yee in the ETERNALL , whose help and Defense hee is . That the ETERNALL that remembreth vs , may blesse ; hee may blesse the House of Israel , and blesse the House of Aaron , and blesse them that fear the ETERNALL , small and great . That the ETERNALL may ad abundantly vpon you , vpon you and vpon your Children ; bee yee the blessed of the ETERNALL maker of Heaven and Earth . The Heavens of Heavens are the ETERNALLS , and the Earth hee hath giuen to the Children of men : the DEAD shall not praise the ETERNALL , nor they that are gone into SILENCE . Therfor wee will blesse the ETERNALL from this time and for ever . The ETERNALL be praised . CXVI . I Loue the ETERNALL , because hee hath hard my VOYCE of my SVPPLICATIONS , and because hee hath turned his eares vnto mee in the dayes of calling . The snares of death had hold of mee , and the torments of Hell came vpon mee , and I found greevous misery . And I CALLED vpon the Name of the ETERNALL : J beseech thee , ô ETERNALL , reskew my Life . And the ETERNALL that is GRATIOVS and JVST ; and our GOD that is moste MERCIFVLL ; the ETERNALL that preserveth the simple ones : VVhen I vvas vtterly spent , holpe mee . Turne to thy REST , ô my Soul , for The ETERNALL hath don BOVNTIFVLLY for thee . For thou hast released my Person from death , mine eyes from teares , and my feet from Scatering , that J might vvalke before the ETER : among the liuing . I beleeved , for I SPAKE when I was exceedingly afflicted , and I SAYED in my hast , All men are lyers . What shall I RETVRNE to the ETERNALL for all his GOOD-TVRNES bestowed vpon mee ? J vvill take the CVP of SALVATION , and make Invocation vpon the NAME of the ETERNALL . I vvill pay my VOVVES to the ETER : yea in the Sighte of his People , the death of his Saintes beeing deer in the sight of the ETERNALL . O ETERN : I BESEECH thee , because I am thy Servant ▪ I am thy Servant ; and sonne of thy Handmayde : loose my bandes , that I may Sacrifice SACRIFICE-ES of Thanks-offering and make Invocation vpon the NAME of the ETERN : and pay my Vowes to the ETERN : in the sight ( yea ) of all his people , in the Courts of the House of the ETERN : and in the mids of thee , O Ierusalem : praised be the ETERNALL . CXVII . PRAISE the ETERNALL all yee Nations , commend him all yee People ; for his passing LOVEING KINDENES vpon vs , and the TRVTH of the ETERN : that is for euer . The ETERNALL be praised . CXVIII . WORSHIP the ETERNALL , because hee is GRATIOVS , For his Loveing Kindenes is for euer . Let Israel SAY , that his Loveing Kindenes is for euer . O let the House of Aaron SAY , that his Loveing Kindenes is for euer . O let them that fear the ETER : SAY , that his Loving Kindenes is for euer . Out of my Affliction I Called vpon the ETER : & the ETER : heard mee at large . The ETERN : is with mee , I am not afrayed , vvhat man shall doe vnto mee . The ETERN : is with mee among my HELPERS , and J doe look vpon my foes . It is better to RELY on the ETERN : then to put any TRVST in man. It is better to RELY on the ETERNALL , then to put trust in Principall men . For all the People came about mee , and in the NAME of the ETERNALL J cut them off . For vvhen they compassed mee , yea and had be set mee rounde about : in the NAME of the ETERNALL I cut them off . They came about mee like bees , but they vvent out like a thorn fire , and in the NAME of the ETERNALL I cut them off . Thou hast cast mee sore downe , and I fell , and the ETERNALL hath holpen mee . My Confidence and Sonet shall bee the ETERN : that hath been my SALVATION : a loud VOYCE of SALVATION in the TABERNACLES of the RIGHTEOVS . The right hand of the ETERNALL hath done valiantly , the right hand of the ETERN : bee exalted : the right hand of the ETERN : hath done valiantly , and while I liue and am not dead ; I will DECLARE the DOOINGS of the ETERNALL . The ETERN : corrected mee sorely , yet gaue mee not vnto death ; open yee righteous gates I may enter in by them , and worship the ETERNALL . This is the Gate of the ETERNALL , by which the RIGHTEOVS ONES doe enter . That I may vvorship thee , for thou hast Afflicted mee , and hast been my SALVATION . The stone that the builders refused ; is becom the head corner stone . This is from the ETERNALL , and it is Miraculous in our eyes . This day hath the ETERNALL brought , that vve may Triumph and Reioyce in it . Wee beseech thee giue Salvation , O ETERN : Wee beseech thee , O ETERN : giue prosperity . Blessed bee hee that cōmeth in the NAME of the ETERN : wee blesse you out of the House of the ETERN : And that the ALL MIGHTY GOD , the ETERNALL , may Shine vnto vs ; Tye your Festivals , vvith cordes to the hornes of the Altar , that J may vvorship thee , ô my ALMIGHTY , and extoll the , ô my GOD. Worship the ETERNALL , because hee is GRATIOVS , and because his LOVEING KINDENES is for euer . CXIX . A. HAPPY are they that are of a PERFECT WAY : that vvalk in the LAVV of the ETERNALL . Happy are they that obserue his TESTIMONYS , and seek him with the whole hart , and walke in his wayes , yea , and doe noe wrong , to obserue dilligently thy VISITINGS which thou hast commanded . I would to God my Wayes wear stedfast to keep thy PRESCRIPTIONS , that then I might not be abashed , when I looke vpon thy COMMANDEMENTS , and I might worship thee with a right hart , when I haue lerned thy JVDGEMENTS . ô that I may keep thy PRECRIPTIONS , ô leaue mee not vtterly . B. O how shall a yong man keep clean his way : To obserue it according to thy Word ! I seek thee with all my hart , ô let mee not misse of thy COMMENDEMENTS . I hide thy SAYINGS in my minde , that I may not sinn against thee . ô ETERNALL , thou blessed one , teach mee thy PRESCRIPTIONS . I reckon with my lips all the SENTENCES of thy mouth , J ioy in the WAY of thy TESTIMONYS as aboue all welth . J talk of thy PRECEPTS , and behold thy WAYES , J haue Delight in thy STATVTES , and forget not thy WORD . G. O deal bountifully with thy Seruant I may liue , and that J may keep thy WORD , vnfold mine eyes , that J may discerne the secrets out of thy LAW . J beeing a stranger in in the Earth , ô hide not thy COMMANDEMENTS from mee . My Soul is beaten out with continuall Appetite to thy JVDGEMENTS . Rebuke the cursed Proud , that err from thy COMMANDEMENTS , and turn from mee Reproch and Contempt , for J obserue thy TESTIMONYS . Yea , when Prince-es sit and speak against mee : thy Seruant communeth of thy STATVTS . Yea thy TESTIMONYES are my Delightes , and my Counse●lers . D. My soul cleeveth to the dust , ô quicken mee according to thy WORD . I tell my WAYES and thou hearest mee : ô teach mee thy STATVTES . Make mee vnderstand the WAY of thy PRECEPTS , that J may talke of thy WONDERS . My soul droupeth for sorrow , O Raise mee again according to thy WORD . O take from mee the WAY of falshood , and grace mee with thy LAW . I choose the WAY of TRVTH , I like thy IVDGEMENTS . J steek vpon thy TESTIMONYS , O ETERNALL , make mee not ashame-ed . ô inlarge my hart , that J may runn the way of thy COMMANDEMENTS . H. Teach mee to obserue the way of thy STATVTS to the end . giue mee vnderstanding to obserue thy LAW , and to keep it with my whole hart . Direct mee in the PATH of thy COMMANDEMENTS , because I haue pleasure in it . Turn my minde to thy TESTIMONYES , and not vnto GAINE . Take away mine eyes from beholding falshood , and revive mee in thy WAY . Establish thy SAYING to thy Seruant , which is according to thy FEARE . Take away my reproche that I feared , for thy IVDGEMENTS are pleasant . Behold , J haue an Appetite to thy PRECEPTS , ô revive mee with thy RIGHTEOVSNES . V. O let thy LOVING KINDENESES and thy SALVATION com vnto mee , according to thy SAYING , that I may answer my Reprocher the matter , Because I trust in thy WORD . and take not the WORD of TRVTH quite out of my mouth , for I waite for thy IVDGEMENT . That I may keep thy LAW , allwayes , for world everlasting . And I may walk at large , for I seek thy PRECEPTS . that I may speak of thy TESTIMONYS before Kinges , and not be abashed ; and delight my selfe in thy COMMANDEMENTS , which I love : and hold vp my hands at thy COMMANDEMENTS which I love , and talke of thy STATVTS . Z. Remember thy word to thy Servant , which thou hast made mee waite for . In my Affliction , this is my cōfort , for thy SAYING reviveth mee . The Proud make a mocking stock of mee , aboue measure , but I decline not from thy Law. I remember thy IVDGEMENTS of old , O ETERNALL , and am comforted . When a storm of Wicked men seissed on mee , ( such as forsake thy LAW ) thy Statuts wear my SONETS in my dwelling House . I remember thy NAME in the night , O ETERNALL , and keep thy LAW . This happened to mee for obseruing thy PRECEPTS . Ch. ô ETERN : my PORTION , I Sayd , I vvould keep thy vvordes . I intreat thee with all my hart , pitty mee according to thy Saying . I recount my wayes , & bring again my feet vnto thy TESTIMONYES . J make haste and delay not to keep thy COMMANDEMENTS . The snares of the wicked are about mee , but J forget not thy LAW : at midnight J rise to thank thee for thy righteous JVDGEMENTS . J am a companion of all them that fear thee , & such as will keep thy PRECEPTS . ô ETERNALL , that the Earth is full of thy LOVEING KINDENES : teach mee thy STATVTES . TH. Deal well with thy Seruant , ô ETERNALL , according to thy WORD . Lern mee the Goodnes of Vnderstanding and Knowledge , for J beleeue in thy COMMANDEMENTS . Before J was in misery J erred , and now J keep thy SAYING ; ô thou that art good and perfect , lern mee thy STATVTS . The Proud lay-falshood against mee , but J obserue thy PRECEPTS with all the hart . Their hart is fat like tallow , but J greatly respect thy LAW . It was good for mee that I was afflicted , that J might lern thy STATVTES . I haue more pleasure in the LAW of thy Mouth , then in thousands of gold and silver . I. Thou that thy handes haue made mee and prepare-ed mee : ô teach mee VNDERSTANDING , that I may lern thy COMMANDEMENTS . That they that fear thee may reioyce , when they see it , for I wait for thy WORD . I know , ô ETERNALL , that thy IVDGEMENTS be with IVSTICE , and that thou hast very FAYTHFVLLY afflicted mee . O let thy LOVING KINDENES be to comfort mee , according to thy SAYING to thy Servant . O let thy MERCYES com vnto mee that I may live , because my greatest Respects are thy LAW . O let the Proud be abashed that wrongfully torment mee , when I talk of thy PRECEPTS . Let such as fear thee and know thy TESTIMONYES , com vnto mee . Let my hart be wholely in thy STATVTES , that I may not be abashed . K. My Soul is consumeed for thy SALVATION , J wait for thy WORD , mine eyes are spent for thy SAYING , Saying , vvhen vvilt thou comfort mee ? Though J am like a botle in the smoke , yet I forget not thy STATVTES . How many are the dayes of thy Servant ? when wilt thou doe Judgement against my Persecutors ? The Proud dig pittes for mee , which is not according to thy LAW ; all thy COMMANDEMENTS are TRVTH , but they persecute mee wrongfully ; O help mee . Within a little , they had made an end of mee in the Earth : notwithstanding J forsake not thy PRECEPTS . O revive mee according to thy LOV : KINDENES : that J may keep the TESTIMONYS of thy mouth . L. O ETERNALL , that thy WORD abideth in Heauen for euer , and thy FAYTHFVLLNES standeth for all generations , as sure as thou hast made the Earth ; that they at this day doe stand by thy IVDGEMENTS : for they are all thy Servants : except thy LAW had been my respects , J had then euen perished in mine Affliction . J shall neuer forget thy PRECEPTS , because by them thou hast revived mee . ô saue mee , for I am thine , for J seek for thy STATVTES . The Wicked lay wait for mee to destroy mee , and I am lerning to vnderstand thy TESTIMONYES . I haue seen an end of all Perfection , but thy COMMANDEMENT is exceeding large . M. Oh how I love thy LAW ! for it is my talke all the day . By thy COMMANDEMENTS thou hast made mee wiser then mine Enimyes ; For it is for ever with mee . J get more skill then all my Teachers , because thy TESTIMONYES are my Meditations . J lern more vnderstanding then the Age-ed , because I obserue thy PRECEPTS . J refraine my feet from all ill wayes , that I may keep thy Word . I will not depart from thy IVDGEMENTS , because thou hast taught mee . How sweet are they to my Palat ? thy SAYING is sweeter then hony to the Palat of my mouth , by thy PRECEPTS J lern VNDERSTANDING , therfor I hate all wrong wayes . N. Thy WORD is a candle to my feet , & a light vnto my foot path . I haue sworne and J will confirm it , that I vvill keep thy righteous IVDGEMENTS . I am extremely afflicted , ô ETERNALL , revive mee according to thy WORD . ô ETERNALL , accept ( I pray thee ) the voluntary Offrings of my mouth , and teach mee thy IVDGEMENTS . My life is allwayes in Danger , but I forget not thy LAW . The Wicked set a snare for mee , but I err not from thy PRECEPTS . I inherit thy TESTIMONYES for ever , because they are the ioy of my hart . And I bend my minde to doe thy PRESCRIPTIONS to the vvorlds end . S. I hate Scismes , and I love thy LAW . ô thou my SHELTER and my SHIELD , I waite for thy WORD . Away from mee , yee Naughty men , I may observ the COMMANDEMENTS of my GOD. Support mee according to thy SAYING , that I may liue , and make mee not ashamed of my HOPE . stay mee vp , J may be safe by looking allwayes in thy PRESCRIPTIONS . Thou ouerthrowest all them that err from thy PRESCRIPTS , because their dissembling is falshood . Thou takest away the Wicked ones of the Earth like a skum , therfor J loue thy TESTIMONYS . My flesh trembleth for fear of thee , and I am afrayed because of thy IVDGEMENTS . GH . I doe righteous IVDGEMENT , ô leave mee not to mine Oppressours . Gard well thy Servant , and let not the Proud oppresse mee . Mine eyes are consume-ed for thy SALVATION , and for thy Righteous Saying . Deal with thy Servant according to thy LOVEING KINDENES , and teach mee thy Prescripts . I am thy Servant , ô lern mee Vnderstanding that I may know thy TESTIMONYES . When they should perform it to the ETERNALL , they breake thy LAW . Therfor doe I loue thy COMMANDEMENTS more then gold , more then Paz gold . Therfor , because of all the PRECEPTS all which J allow : all wrong wayes doe J hate . P. Wonderfull are thy Testimonyes , therfor my Soul observeth them . The opening of thy WORDS giueth light , and maketh the simple to bee of Vnderstanding . I opened my mouth vvith Longing , because I had Appetite to thy COMMANDEMENTS . O look vpon mee and pitty mee , as thy Custom is to them that loue thy NAME . Set my feet firm in thy SAYINGS , and let noe sorrovv haue Dominion ouer mee . Redeem mee from the oppression of men , that I may keep thy PRECEPTS . Lighten thy FACE vpon thy Seruant , and lerne mee thy PRESCRIPTS . Riuers of water runn down mine eyes , because they keep not thy LAW . T S . O ETERNALL , that art IVST and RIGHT in thy IVDGEMENTS ; and with exceeding IVSTICE and TRVTH hast commanded thy TESTIMONYES : my zeale torments mee , because my foes forget thy wordes . Thy SAYING is an exceeding tried Saying , & thy Seruāt loueth it , shakē off & despised as J am , J forget not thy PRECEPTS . O thou , that thy Righteousnes and thy Law is with Iustice and TRVTH for euer : miserable torments haue found mee , but my whole Respects are thy COMMANDEMENTS . ô thou , that thy Testimonys are with Iustice for euer : giue mee Vnderstanding that J may live . Q. I Call with all my hart , O ETERN : answer mee , J that obserue thy Prescripts . J CALL thee , ô Saue mee , and J keep thy TESTIMONYES ; J am present in the Twilight shouteing , because I wait for thy WORD . Mine eyes prevent the Night waches , that J may muse vpon thy SAYING . Hear my voyce , O ETERNALL , according to thine accustomed LOVEING KINDENES and revive mee . When the followers of Mischeeff approched , which wear far from thy LAW . ô thou ETERNALL most nighe , and all thy COMMANDEMENTS are TRVTH : by thy TESTIMONYES I knew before , because thou hast founded them for ever . R. O see mine Affliction and release mee , because J forget not thy LAW . Defend my quarell and ransom mee , and by thy SAYING revive mee . SALVATION is far frō the Wicked , because they seek not thy PRESCRIPTS . ô ETERNALL , that thy MERCYES are great ; after thy IVDGEMENTS revive mee . When my Persecutors and Afflictors are many ; I decline not from thy TESTIMONY . When I saw Transgressors , which kept not thy Saying ; I was exceedingly greeved . ô mark how I love thy PRECEPTS ; and according to thy LOVEING KINDENES ; revive mee . The beginning of thy WORD is TRVTH , and every one of thy IVST DECREES is for ever . SH . When Prince-es persecuted mee for nothing , and my hart was afrayed because of thy WORD : I ioyed concerning thy SAYING , as a man that had found a great Booty . I hate and abhore falshood , and I love thy LAW . Seven times a day I praise thee for thy RIGHTEOVS IVDGEMENTS , ther is great PEACE to them that love thy LAW . And ther is nothing shall offend them . I hope for thy SALVATION , because J doe thy COMMANDEMENTS . My Soul keepeth thy TESTIMONYES , and I love them exceedingly . I keep thy COMMISSIONS and thy TESTIMONYS , because all my wayes are before thee . T. O ETERNALL , let my SOVND com before thee , and according to thy WORD , giue mee VNDERSTANDING , let my Request com before thee , and according to thy Saying , deliver mee . And that my lips may vtter Prayse , ô teach mee thy PRESCRIPTIONS , and my tonge report thy SAYING , for all thy COMMANDEMENTS are IVST . Let thy hand be to help mee , for J make choise of thy PRECEPTS . J long for thy SALVATION , O ETERNALL , thy LAW being my cheeff Respect . That my Soul may PRAYSE thee as long as it liueth , because thy IVDGEMENTS have holpen mee . J goe astray like a lost sheep , ô seek out thy Servant , for J forget not thy COMMANDEMENTS . CXX . A Song of Gradations . IN my Affliction , I CALLED vnto the ETERNALL to hear mee : ô ETERNALL , deliver my Soul from false Lippes , and a deceiptfull Tong. What shall it giue vnto thee , and what shall it bring vnto thee a deceiptfull Tong ? sharp Arrovves of a strong man , vvith hot Juniper coles . VVoe is mee that I have sojourned in Meshek , and dvvelt vvith the Tentes of Kedar , my Soul hath dvvelt her ther to long , vvith him that hate-eth PEACE : For vvhen J speake of PEACE , they are for vvarr . CXXI . A Song of Gradations . SHALL I lift vp mine eyes to the Hilles ? from whence shall my HELP com ? My Help is from the ETERNALL , maker of Heaven and Earth . O let him not suffer thy foot to slip , nor let him slomber that keepeth thee . Behold hee vvill neither slombe● nor sleep that keepeth Jsrael . The ETERNALL that keepeth thee : vvill be a Shadovv at thy Right hand , that the Sunn smite thee not by day , nor the moon by night . The ETERNALL vvill Keep thee and preserue thy life from all evill ; the ETERNALL vvill preserue thy going out , and thy comming in , from this time and for euer . CXXII . A Song of Gradations , of DAVID . I Reioyce-ed , when they SAYD to mee , Let vs goe to the House of the ETERNALL , and our feet shall stand in thy gates , ô Jerusalem . Jerusalem that is built like a Citty , vvell pack together vvith it self . Because thither goe vp the Tribes , the Tribes of the ETERN : and the whole Testimony of Israel , to worship the NAME of the Eternall . for ther , they sit in Trones for Iudgement , the THRONES of the House of David ; wish PEACE with Ierusalem , that they may prosper that love thee . Let PEACE be in thy Trenches and Prosperity in thy Palaces : for my Bretheren and friends sakes , I vvish PEACE in thee ; for the House of the ETERNALL our GOD , his sake , J vvish thee vvell . CXXIII . A Song of Gradations . VNTO thee I lift vp mine eyes , ô thou Dweller in the Heavens . Behold , as the eyes of men Servantes are to the hand of their maisters ; & as the eyes of a maide to the hand of her Mistresse : so are our eyes to the ETER : our GOD ; vntill hee shall Pitty vs. Pitty vs , pitty vs , O ETERN : for wee are very full of Contempt ; our Soul is to full to it self , of the skornfull Contempt of Idle and haughty men . CXXIV . A Song of Gradations , of DAVID . NOT for the ETERNALL that was with vs , may Israel now SAY , not for the ETERNALL that was with vs ; when men rose vp against vs : even then , they had swellowed vs vp alive ; when their Anger burned against vs. Then the waters had overflowed vs , and the Current runn over our Soules ; then had a stream of swelling waters gon clean over our Soules . Blessed be the ETERNALL that hath not given vs a prey to their teeth . Our Soul is escape-ed , like a bird from the fowlers Snare . The Snare is broken ; and wee are escape-ed . Our HELP is in the NAME of the ETERNALL , the make-er of Heaven and Earth . CXXV . A Song of Gradations . THEY that trust in the ETERNALL , are like Mount Sion that shall not be moved ; but abide for ever . The Hills are round about Jerusalem , and the ETERNALL is round about his People , from this time and for euer . For ther shall noe vvicked shaft rest by the Lot of the RIGHTEOVS , Because the Righteous set not their hands to any wrong . Be good , O ETERN : to the good and vpright in their hartes ; and they that turn their crooked wayes : let the ETERN : make them walke , with them that work the sorrow ; that Peace may bee vpon Israel . CXXVI . A Song of Gradations . WHEN the ETERN : brought again the captivity of Sion : wee wear like men in a Dream . Then wear our mouthes full of LAVGHTER , and our tongs with SONETS . Then SAYD they among the Hethen : The ETERN : hath don much among these men . The ETERNALL hath don great things with vs , and wee reioyce-ed ; ô ETERNALL , bring our captivity again like the Rivers in the South . That they that sowe with teares , may reap with Songs ; that hee , that went out weeping , bearing his seedleep ; may com againe with SONETS , bringing his sheaves . CXXVII . A Song of Gradations , of Salomon . IF the ETERNALL build not the house , in vaine doe the builders therof ; labour in it . If the ETERNALL keep not the Citty , in vain doe the Warders wach . It is in vain to you , that yee rise vp early and sit down late , and eat your meat with cares : seeing hee giveth his BELOVED rest . Behold , children and the fruit of the womb , are an hereditary reward of the ETERNALL . As arrovves in a strongmans hand : so are the Children of youth . Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them ; they shall not be abashed , vvhen they talk vvith their enimyes in the gate . CXXVIII . A Song of Gradations . HAPPY is every man that feareth the ETERNALL , and walketh in his WAYES : for hee shall eat the labour of his ovvn hādes ; thou shalt bee happy , and it shall be vvell vvith thee . Thy vvife shall be like a fruitfull vine by thy House sides , and thy Children like Olive plantes about thy table , loe , because that thus shall the man bee blessed that Feareth the ETERNALL . The ETERNALL shall blesse thee out of Sion , that thou mayst behold the vvelth of Ierusalem all the dayes of thy life , & see thy Childrens children , and Peace vpon Israel . CXXIX . A Song of Gradations . THEY haue sore Afflicted mee from my youth , may Israel vvel SAY ; they haue sore Afflicted mee euer since my youth ; yet they preuailed not ouer mee . The plowmen haue plowed vpon my back , and made their furrowers of a length . O ETERNALL , that art Iust ; that cutteth the cordes of the Wicked : let them all retire back with shame , that be hate-ers of Sion . Let them bee like the grasse vpon the house tops , that withereth er it bloweth out . Wherof the reaper hath not his handfull , nor the gripe-er his lapfull . And noe Travaillers SAY ; GOD speed you , vvee blesse you in the NAME of the ETERNALL . CXXX . A Song of Gradations . OVT of the Deepes I call on thee , O ETERNALL ; O LORD , hear my Voyce , and let thine eares be attent to the voyce of my REQVESTS . If the ETERNALL shall obserue Iniquityes , O LORD , vvho shall stand ? seeing vvith thee is Pardon , that thou shouldest be feared . I expect for the ETERN : my Soul expecteth , and I wait for his WORD ; my Soul expecteth for the LORD , more then the Wachman for the Morning , the Wachman for the Morning . Let Israel wait for the ETERN : seeing with the ETERN : is KINDENES , and with him is great REDEMPTION : that hee will redeeme Israel from all his Iniquityes . CXXXI . A Song of Gradations , of DAVID . O ETERNALL , I am not highe minded , nor haue J lofty lookes , neither am I buissied in great matters , and to hard for mee . Doe I not equall and tame my Soule ? as a vvainling is by his mother : so is my Soul by mee . Let Jsrael wait for the ETERNALL , from this time and for ever . CXXXII . A Song of Gradations . O ETERNALL , remember David and his Afflictions , which hee SWARE and VOWED to the ETERNALL , the MIGETY ONE of Jacob. I vvill not com vvithin my Dvvelling House , nor goe vpon my Made Bed , nor giue sleep to mine eyes , nor slomber to mine eye-lids : vntill I finde a place for the ETERNALL , and a dvvelling for the MIGHTY ONE of Jacob. Behold , vvee heard of it in Ephratah , and found it in the vvood country . Let vs enter into his DWELLINGS and worship at his footstoole . Arise O ETERN : to thy REST , thou and the ARK of thy STRENGTH . Let thy Priests put on RIGHTEOVSNES , and thy SACRED ONES sound out aloud . For thy Servant Davides sake turne not againe the FACE of thine Anoyinted . The ETERNALL hath SWORN to David , TRVTH , and will not turn from it ; Of the fruit of thy Belly J vvill set vpon the Throne for thee . Jf thy children keep my COVENANT and my Testimonyes , vvhich J teach them ; yea their Children shall bee for Eternity , and sit vpon thy Throne for thee . Because the ETERNALL hath chosen Siō , & desired it for a HABITATION for him . This is my Rest for evermore , heer will I dwell , because I desired it . I will mightily blesse hervictuall , and satisfy her poor with bread , & clothe her Priests with Salvation , & her Gratious Ones shall sound out aloude . Ther will I make to bud a Horne vnto David , and prepare a Candle for mine Anoynted , and I will clothe his Enimyes with bashfullnes , while His Garland shall florish vpon him . CXXXIII . A Song of Gradations , of DAVID . BEHOLD , how Pleasant and Sweet is the Dwelling of Bretheren with Vnity . It is like the pretious oyle vpon the head , running dovvn vpon the beard , vpon Aarons beard ; that runneth down vpon the hemb of his garments . Jt is like the Devv of Hermon that descends vpon the Hills of Sion , vvher the ETERNALL sends his BLESSING ; EVERLASTING LIFE . CXXXIV . A Song of Gradations . BEHOLD , Blesse yee the ETERNALL , yee SERVANTES of the ETERNALL , which stand in the House of the ETERNALL in the Nights . Lift vp your holly handes , and blesse the ETERNALL . That the ETERN : may blesse thee from Sion , Which is Maker of Heaven and Earth . CXXXV . PRAISE yee the ETERN : praise the NAME of the ETERN : Praise yee SERVANTS of the ETERNALL , which stand in the House of the ETERNALL , and in the Courtes of the House of our GOD. Praise the ETERNALL and sing Psalmes to his NAME , because it is Pleasant and Sweet . Because hee chose Jacob to himself , and Israel for his Peculiar . For I Know that the ETERNALL is great , and our LORD is above all Godes . Whatsoever hee pleaseth , the ETERNALL doth in Heaven and in Earth , in the Seas & all deeps . Raiseing cloudes in the endes of the Earth , hee maketh Lightnings for Raine , bringing the winde out of his Tresures . VVhich smote the first born of Egypt from man to beast , and sent vvonderfull Signes in the mids of thee , ô Egypt , vpon Pharoh & all his Seruants . VVhich smote many Nations , and slevv mighty Kinges ; Sihon King of the Emorites , and Og King of Bashan , and all the Kingdoms of Canaan . And gaue their Land an INHERITANCE ; an Inheritance to his People Israel . O ETERNALL thy NAME be forever , and thy MEMORIALL for all Generations , because hee defendeth his People , and hath his comfort on his Servantes . The Idoles of the Hethen beeing Siluer and Gold , the vvork of mens handes : haue mouthes and speak not , eyes and see not , and eares and hear not , yea , ther is noe breth in their mouthes ; So be their makers , and every one that trusteth in them . O House of Israel blesse the ETERNALL , ô House of Aaron blesse the ETERN : ô House of Levi blesse the ETERNALL , yee that fear the ETERN : blesse the ETERNALL ; blessed be the ETERNALL out of Zion , ô Jnhabitantes of Jerusalem ; Praise the ETERNALL . CXXXVI . WORSHIP the ETERNALL , for his GOODNES and for his Everlasting Kindenes . Worship the GOD of GODES : for his Everlasting Kindenes . Worship the LORD of LORDES , for his EVERLASTING KINDENES . The only DOER of Great and mervilouse things , for his Everlasting Kindenes . That by his VNDERSTANDING made the Heavens : for his Everlasting Kindenes . That streched out the Earth vpon the waters : for his Everlasting Kindenes . That made the great LIGHTES : for his Everlasting Kindenes . The Sunn to rule the day : for his Everlasting Kindenes . The Moon and the Stars to rule in the Night : for his Everlasting Kindenes .

And free-ed vs from our Tormentours : for his Everlasting Kindenes . Him , that giveth bread to all flesh : for his Everlasting Kindenes . Worship the MIGHTY GOD of Heaven : for his Everlasting Kindenes . CXXXVII . BY the Rivers side of Babel , wher wee sate and wept , when wee remembred Zion ; and vpon the Willowes , in the middes of it , wee had hanged vp our Harpes : when as ther , our Captivers and Inthrallers Asked vs som mery Songes , Sing vs som songes of Zion : Hovv shall vvee sing a SONG of the ETER : vpon a forain soile ? If J forget thee , Ierusalem , let my Right hand forget , and my Tong cleeue to the roof of my mouth . If J remember thee not , and aduaunce not Ierusalem , Aboue my cheeffest mirth . Remember , ô ETERN : the children of Edom , in the day of Ierusalem , vvhich SAYD , Downe with it , downe with it , to the ground with it . ô Babel , tovvne of destruction , happy is hee , that repayeth thee , fully , as thou hast dealt vvith vs. Happy is hee that taketh thy babes , and dasheth them against the stones . CXXXVIII . Of DAVID . I Will worship thee with all my hart , and set thee out with Psalmes , before the GODES . I will bow downe at thy Holly Temple , and worship thy NAME , for thy LOVEING KINDENES and thy TRVTH . Because thou hast made thy SAYING great aboue all thy NAME . Because thou hardest mee in the day I called , and inlargedst mee vvith Strength in my Minde . Let all the Kings of the Earth worship thee , O ETERNALL , when they heare the Sayings of thy mouth ; and sing of the VVayes of the ETERN : for the Glory of the ETERNALL is great . Because the ETERN : is highe & beholdeth the Lovvly , and being lofty kenneth a farr : If J vvalk in the hart of Distresse , that thou revivest mee , and settest thy hand vpon the face of mine Enimyes , & vvith thy Right hand savest mee . The ETERNALL that did all for mee , ô ETERNALL , that thy KINDENES is for ever : forsake not thou the Workes of thy handes . CXXXIX . For the Cheeff , of David , A Psalme . O ETERNALL , thou serchest mee , and knowest . Thou knowest my sitting downe , and my riseing vp , and vnderstandest my meaning a farr . Thou goest round about my pathes and my couching , and art vsed to all my wayes . ( for behold , ther is not a word in my tong , but thou , ô ETERN : knowest it all ) thou besiegest mee behinde and before , and layest thy hand vpon mee . To wonderfull is the knowledge for mee , and so highe , that I comprehend it not . Whether shall J goe from thy Spirit , and whether shall J fly from thy Presence ? If J goe vp to Heaven , thou art there ; if J goe down to Hell , behold , thou art there . If I take the winges of the morning , & dwell beyond the Sea ; also , thither shall thy hand lead mee , and thy right hand seize vpon mee . And if J SAY , but Darknes shall comprehend mee ; the Night shall bee Light about mee : yea , the Darknes shall not darken from thee , & the Night shall giue light like the day , as well the Darknes as the Light. Thou obteinedst my Reynes , & coveredst mee in the belly of my mother . ( I thank thee ) for because J am fearfully overheeled , and wonderfull are thy WORKES which my Soul knoweth right well . My FASTNING is not hid from thee , which am wrought in Secret , and stiched vnder the earth . Thine Eyes see my WINDEING vp , and they wear written vpon thy book , the dayes they wear formed , when ther was not one among them . And to mee hovv deer are thy thoughtes , ô ALMIGHTY ? hovv mighty are the Summes of them ? If J tell them , they are more then the sand of the Sea ; All while I am awake , I am with thee . VVilt thou kill the VVicked that is idlely caried avvay ? thy Enimyes that stirr and vex thee vvith vvicked Imaginatiōs ? Yea , yee bloody men , depart yee from mee . Doe not J hate thos that hate thee , ô ETERNALL , and vex my self vvith those that raise themselues vp against thee ? I hate them vvith perfect hatred , and they are to mee for Enimyes . Serch mee , ô ALMIGHTY , and try mee , & know the Thoughtes of my Hart , and see if ther be any way of Impiety in mee , & lead mee the way of Eternity . CXL . By the Cheeff , A Psalme of DAVID . RELEASE mee , ô ETERN : and preserve mee frō all Malicious & iniurious men , which devise Mischeeff in their hart , & meditate warrs continually . Whose tonges are as sharp as a S●rpents , with the poison of an Asp within his lippes . O ETERN : keep mee from the handes of the Wicked man , and preserve mee from all Iniurious ones : VVhich devise to destroy my steps surely . The Haughty ones hide a trap & snares for mee , they spred a net by the vvay , and set Toyles for mee surely . I SAY to the ETER : ô my ALLMIGTY GOD , O ETER : heare the voice of my Supplications . O LORD , the Strenghth of my Salvation , that coverest my head in the day of Battail : Graunt not the DESIRES of the Wicked , and content not his minde , that they be exalted surely . O thou , my Helmet , let the PAYNS of their ovvn lipps ouerheel them , let it cast them in the fire ; and let coles be throvven vpon them , in hot coles ; that they never rise againe . That noe foul tonged man be established in the earth , and that the Malice of the Iniurious man , hunt him to Destruction . I know , the ETERN : will doe the right Sentence of the Afflicted and needy : seeing Iust and vpright men shall sit and celebrate thy NAME , and remaine before thee . CXLI . A Psalm of DAVID . O ETERNALL , I CALL on thee , ô hasten to mee , ô hear my Voice , when J call vnto thee . Let my PRAYER be made burnt JNCENSE before thee , and the lifting vp of my handes , an Evening Offring . Set , ô ETERNALL , a wach to my mouth , to ward at the Dore of my Lippes . Incline not my minde to any bad matter , to enterprize enterprizes wickedly with Molesters : & let not mee eat of their deinty meates ; let the Iust man beat mee in Kindenes , and reproove mee ; and let not my head refuse pretious oyle ; because while they are in their Miseryes ; also my PRAYER shall bee . That their condemners be smitten by the Rock , & that they hear my Sayings , beeing sweet . As of a hevver or cleever on the earth , our bones are scatered at the pits mouth . But tovvard thee , ô ETERN : ô LORD , are mine eyes , and in thee doe I relye , ô shake not off my life , keep mee from the traps they tile for mee , and the snares of Molesting men . Let the VVicked fall into the Meashes therof , vvhile I escape at once . CXLII . A Maskil of DAVID . A Prayer , vvhen hee vvas in the Cave . WITH my Voice J cry vnto the ETERN : with my Voice I make REQVEST to the ETERN : I power out my Complaint before him , and tell my Distresse before him . When my spirit fainteth on mee , and they hide snares in the way that I goe , and thou knowest my Pathes . Look vpon my right hand and see , and J have noe acquaintance ; all Refuge is perished from mee , and ther is none that careth for my life . I CRY vnto thee , ô ETERN : and Say , O thou my RELY and PORTION in the living world , hearken to my Loud PRAYER , because J am exceedingly spent . O deliver mee from my Pursuers , for they are to strong for mee . ô bring my Life out of Hold to vvorship thy NAME , vvith the Just ones about mee ; for thy Boūtifullnes vpon mee . CXLIII . A Psalm , of DAVID . O ETERNALL , heare my Prayer , and hearkē to my Supplications . And in thine owne TRVTH and Righteousnes consider mee . And enter not into Iudgement . With thy Servant ; for noe living creature is Iust before thee . Because the Enimy pursueth my Soul , and beates down my life to the ground , and make-eth mee dwell in obscurity like them that are dead for ever . And my spirit fainteth on mee , and my hart is wasted within mee . I remember the dayes of old , and Meditate of all thy Work ; I talk of the Doing of thy handes . J spread my handes vnto thee , & open my minde like a thirsty land vnto thee surely . Make hast and consider mee , O ETERNALL , and hide not thy Face from mee , for my Spirit is spent , & I am to be compared with them that are going to the Pitt . Betimes let mee hear thy LOVEING KINDENES , because I trust in thee ; and let mee know the WAY that I should goe , because I open my minde vnto thee . Deliver mee from mine Enimyes , ô ETERNALL , my concealing is vvith thee . Teach mee to doe thy vvill , ô thou my GOD , by thy good Spirit , lead mee in plain Ground . For thy NAMES sake , ô ETERNALL , revive mee ; by thy Righteousnes bring my Soul out of Distresse . and in thy LOVING KINDENES dissolve thou mine Enimyes , and destroy all them that torment my Life ; for I am thy Servant . CXLIV . Of DAVID . BLESSED be the ETERNALL my Rock , that maketh my handes cunning for warr , and my fingers for the Battail ; my KINDENES , FORTRESSE , RELEEFF and RESCVER , my DEFENSE that J relye on ; that bringeth in commande my People vnder mee . ô ETERNALL , what is wreched man , that thou take-est Notice of him , & make-est reckning of him ? man that is like vnto Vanity , and his dayes like a shadow that passeth by ? O ETERNALL , bow the Heavens & com down , touch the Mountaines that they smoke . Lighten with thy Lightning and scater them , send out thine Arrowes and disturb them . Send thy handes from an highe , rid mee and deliver mee from great WATERS ; from the handes of Alians . Whose mouth speaketh falshood , and whose right hand is a right hand of wrong . ô GOD , that I may sing a NEW SONG vnto thee , and a PSALM vpon the ten-stringed Viol. Which giveth SALVATION to Kinges , and rids his Servant David from the hurtfull sword . ô rid mee and deliver mee , from the handes of Alians , whose mouth speaketh falshood , & whose right hand is a right hand of wrong . That our Sonnes may bee like Plantes well grown in their youth , and our Daughters like Buttresses well carved , of the building of the Temple . That our Buttryes be full , conteining from Meale to Meale . That our Sheep may be come many Thousandes in our streetes . That our cattell may be well lode-en , that ther bee noe Robery nor runing out , nor Out-cry in our open streets . Happy is the people , that it is so with , and happy is the people , whose GOD is the ETERNALL . CXLV . A Praise , of DAVID . I Will extoll & bless thy NAME , ô my GOD , ô KING , for evermore ; I will dayly blesse & Praise thy NAME for evermore . Great is the ETERNALL , and exceedingly to be praise-ed , and of his Greatnes ther is noe serching . Let one Generation commend thy Workes to another , and declare thy Excellent Acts. The Maiesty of the Glory of thy Worship , and thy Wonderfull Acts , I will talk of . Let them tell thy Terrible Mighte ; and I will reckon vp thy Greatnes . Let them buble out the Remembrance of thy great GOODNES , and sound out thy JVSTICE . The ETERN : is Gratious , and Mercyfull , and Patient , and of Great Kindenes ; the ETERN : that is Good to all , and hath Mercy vpon all his Workes : let all thy Workes set thee out , ô ETERN : and thy Gratious Ones blesse thee ; let them tell out the Glory of thy KINGDOM , & speak of thine Excellency . To make his Excellent Acts knovvn to the Sonnes of Adam ; and the seemly Glory of his KINGDOM . Thy KINGDOM , is a KINGDOM of all Age-es , and thine EMPIRE is in every Generation . The ETERN : is an vpholder of all that are falling , & a setter vpright of all that are declineing . The eyes of all vvaite vpon thee , and thou givest them their meat in his Season ; opening thy hand and satisfying every Living Creature freely . The ETERNALL is Iust in all his Wayes , and Kinde in all his Workes . The ETERNALL is Neer to them that call on him ; to all , that call vpon him Faythfully . Hee vvill doe the Will of them that feare him ; and hear their Shouting and save them . The ETERN : that keepeth all that love him , and destroyeth all the wicked : let my mouth speak the PRAISE of the ETERNALL ; and all flesh blesse his holly NAME forevermore . CXLVI . PRAISE yee the ETERNALL , my SOVL praise thou the ETERN : I will praise the ETERN : and sing Psalmes to my GOD as long as J live . Trust yee not in Prince-es , nor in any childe of man , in whom ther is noe Salvation ; whose breth goeth out , and hee returnes to his owne earth , & in that day his thoughtes perish . Happy is hee , whose Help is the GOD of Iacob , and his Hope is vpon the ETERN : his GOD : the make-er of Heaven and Earth , and the Sea , & all that is in them ; And that keepeth Faythfullnes for ever . That doth right the oppressed , and give bread to the Hungry ; The ETERN : that looseth them that are bound . The ETERNALL that openeth the eyes of the blinde , and setteth vpright them that are bowed down ; the ETERNALL that loveth the Just. The ETERNALL that keepeth the Strangers , and mainteineth the Fatherles and the Widow ; and over●hroweth the way of the Wicked : The ETERNALL thy GOD , ô Zion raigne for ever , for all Generations . The ETERNALL bee praised . CXLVII . PRAISE yee the ETERNALL , and chaunt thou out our GOD , because hee is good & pleasant , and his PRAISE is comely . The ETERNALL that built Jerusalem , and gathered together the Scatered of Jsrael , that healeth the broken harted , and bindeth vp their sores ; that Telleth the Number of the Starrs , and calleth the Names to them all . Great is our LORD and of great Power , and of his Vnderstanding ther is noe declareing . The ETERNALL that advaunceth the Lowly , and humbleth the Wicked to the ground . Sing yee Psalmes of Thanks Offering to the ETERNALL our GOD , vpon the Harp. Which Covereth the Heavens with cloudes , and prepare-eth rain for the Earth . That make-eth the Hilles to Spirt out grasse , & giveth the bease their food , and the young Ravens which call . Hee hath not delight in the Valiantnes of a Horse , nor hath liking in the Legs of a man. The ETERNALL like-eth them that fear him , and Waite for his Kindenes : ô Ierusalem commend the ETERN : and praise thou thy GOD , ô Zion . Because hee strengtheneth the bars of thy Gates , and blesseth thy children vvithin thee . and setteth Peace in thy borders , & satisfyeth thee vvith vvheaten flovver . that sendeth his Saying to the Earth , and his Word runneth moste speedily . That giveth Snovv like vvhite vvool , and scatereth hore-frost like Ashes . That casteth out his hard Ice like morsells , and vvho can abide for the cold thereof ? hee sendeth out his Word , and Thavveth them ; hee maketh his vvinde to turne , and they drop vvater . That telleth his Word to Jacob , & his Prescripts and Iudgements to Israel . He hath not done so to any Nation , that they should not know his Iudgements . The ETERN : bee praised . CXLVIII .

The Mountaines and all Hilles , Fruit-trees and all Ceders , Cattell and all Bease , Creeping things and fethered fovvle . Kinges of the Earth and all Nations , Prince-es and all Iudge-es of the Earth . Yong-men and Maydes , Oldmen and Children . Let them praise the Name of the ETERN : because his Name onely is to be exalted ; and his Worship both by the Earth & the Heavens . Which holdeth vp the Horne of his People , the Prayse of his Gratious Ones ; of the Children of Israel , his Proper People . The ETERNALL be praised . CXLIX . PRAISE the ETERNALL , sing yee a NEW SONG to the ETERN : of his PRAYSE ; in the Congregation of his GRATIOVS-ONES . Let Israel rejoyce in his MAKE-ER , & the Children of Zion triumph in their KING .

Let the Gratious Ones triumph Gloriously , and Sing aloud vpon their beds ; vvith Exaltationes of the ALL MIGHTY in their Throates , and a tvvo edged svvord in their handes . For working Revenge among the Heathen , & Chastisment among the Nations . for bindeing their Kinges in Manicles , and their Noble-men in Iron-Chaines ; for fullfilling among them the SENTENCE that is written : Hee is an ornament to all his Saintes .

The ETERNALL be praised . ARGVMENTS VPON THE PSALMS . PSALM I. AS the Law is the touch-stone of the lives of men : so this work of Psalmes is to bring them to it , Psal. 26 , and this Psalme the formost to shew the way . Heer the judgement and justice therof is layed to the rule and weighed . And seeing all that men would haue is but happines of their liues , and Eternity : hee sheweth , by a short description , the way to it . To avoyde the Enimyes , and all impediments therof , the wicked counsell of transgressers ; to leaue the known way of Sinn , Psa. 36 , and not to skorn instruction : And this person hee maketh the proud and skornfull Enimy , the Hethē . And to haue a delighte in the law , and to meditate , and muse , and talk of it allwayes , both for his counsell , and his way , and to be in love with the doctrine therof , Psal. 26. and this is for the person of the church , Psal. 112. So that yf you will liue long , with much happines : this summeth up the evil that is to be shunned , as Ps. 34 , and the great good to be doon , and the great peace that insueth , and the Eternall happines that followeth , Ps. 112. which two persones are but one , because the avoyding of the one , doth the other . Therfor was that tree of life , the Law , made so inviolable that all was upō hāding of and forbearāce ; and that for the willfulnes of nature , Ps. 36 , 58. and frowardnes of conceit , as Psal. 51. Then yf a man will attein unto eternall life : hee must keep the cōmandements , Ps. 15 , 26. which in this work , together with thē , the Creed , and Petition of the Church , are moste sweetly and harmoniously handled , Ps. 25 , according to God his promiss to the blessed , and the goeing out of the wicked . This is the way of Mercy which God will make known , and judgement from Com : the second . Exod. 20. God is familiar with righteous men and regardeth them : but casteth away the wicked out of his sight , and taketh no notice of thē , nor hath anie acquanitance with them . So the Godly shall remain immoveable by any tempest of the world , and continue firm , and doe good , and prosper , by the mercyes and love of God : and the ungodly , by unconstancey , fade away , and vanish by his judgement . And this standeth for the beginning of wisedom , Psal. 111.112 . wher the immortality and prosperity of this tree of life is fully set out . This book is for Genesis , the Creation of mankinde , and importeth the principles , and the Grammer of the lives of men . As for the first letter Aleph , which beginneth the book , and is title of the Psalme , and is so often repeated : sheweth , that that letter must rule the construction . It serueth for the law , instruction , and God ; the ground of all salvation . The mystery is in the Doctrine of the Eternall , opposed to the counsell of the wicked , shewing , that doctrine and counsell is one and the same thinge , Psal. 32. this word is twise together vttered and harped upon , for beeing his dayly study , and exercise , so Aleph for beginning ; and Aleph for lerning , and Aleph for teacheing , beeing the title and nomber of the Psalme : sheweth wholely the way of construction therof , the often vseing the word , Way , sheweth a mans way and life is one thinge , which is termed a tree for the branches of instruction and cariage . This doctrine and Law and word of God is the way of the righteous , opposed to the way of the wicked . The one shall be for euer explaned , but the other extinguished . The way of the righteous is the way of the eternall , as the gate of the eternall is the gate of the righteous , Psal. 118. and therfor it is manifest to him , ther is a tree of knowledge which maketh not happy : but a good cours or study or cariage of life and good exercise , maketh happy . And thus is the whole life of man divided in this Psalme : com yee blessed , goe ye cursed , by a flat opposition throughout . From the tree of life Gen. 3. The Genesis of this Psalme is in Alep hand Beth , so often repeated in the first and second verses for Ab , which is the Active conjugation , which is the singularity of doctrine , father of all : as ther is but one father of all , as God is one and therfor singular . PSALM II. REbellion and transgression is a moste wicked sinn , and Idolatry and disobedience a childe of witch-craft , which hee maketh to bee the opposition of the trespassers , the proud and skornfull heathen , that will none of the law of God , and consult to break the yoke of obedience and subjection to it , for the terror of Gods promiss , Ps. 70.110 . againste them . They will not lern , nor bee advised , nor instructed , nor admonished by it , which beeing against the decree , and beeing a ridiculous husbandry of theirs , in the sight of God : hee reprooveth them for stubborn-nes , and willeth , considering the power , and force of destruction of the wrath of God for disobedience , and the happynes of all that love the church and Anoynted , and rely in it , and are not offended at it : that they serue it , and obey him ( yf they bee wise ) with all reverence and willingnes . Lest in his anger and furious time of judgement , they be like chaff blowen quite away and perish , and all their wayes com to nothing . And seeing all is for effect of the promiss . Psal. 149. and performance of the Law : This Psalme together with the former , conteineth the summ and argument of all the rest . as from the first com : Exod. 20. The content of which two Psalmes furnisheth the whole book with life , as the blood through the body . The Coherencey and relation between them is as the father to the sonn . ther is none commeth except the father draweth : so as the church dependeth upon the Doctrine , this Psalme also dependeth upon the former . and is full of the termes of it , and concludeth with it . The Childe is the righteousnes of the church , Psal. 24. Abraham was father Gen. 15. and the doctrine of the Law. the conducter . Ioh. 6. Is. 54. as Ier. 31. For Construction : Beth , the second , is a house . The Hethen are founded , which is a hous by synecdoche , the worldly prince-es reject the principles and will none of the religion that God offereth , the instruction and Edification of the House and family of Iacob , from Jasar twise : by the multitude of Affixes , Combination or building . God dwelleth in heaven , Tsion is his holy hill , and the church shall hold the inheritance of all the world , and the whole work is instruction or destruction , as of a house . The Genesis or grammer , is signifyed by the word Sonn , twise vse-ed for Binjan a conjugation , the Hethens cohering by the multitude of affixes for combination . For the Actiue conjugation with the Hebrew , is called a father , and the Passiue is called a sonn . for hence , bothe Father and Sonn may well be termed the word , and God , and everlasting Life , Ioh. 1. All kindes rise out of propertyes : so riseth a certain holynes out of the Letter , which make-eth this kinde of father and sonn out of the word . PSALM . III. AS greatnes getteth place : so heer , Davids greatest affliction beeing the cross of his sonns rebellion , is put first , that when as his adversaryes wer many and his perplexity great by meanes of Saul , yet they neuer deemed him helples and comfortless and in the way of desperation , till his own and his only beloved sonne riseeth against him ; and in this case they presumed ther was no salvation for him , and that hee could not now bee saued or any way escape , seeing his Enimyes were so nigh him , but haueing his whole relye upon God , hee is not afrayd of any multitude , nor the neernes of any danger . becaus hee is sure of the promiss , that God will bless his people , and save them , and beat their Ennmyes on the cheek and smite out their backbiteing teeth , out of their cheeks , while hee taketh his naturall rest , so that no persecution can preuaile aginst the Godly , for their Saluation is out of sight of the wicked , vpon which word the whole Construction runneth according to the number and signification of the term Ghimel the Name of the third letter , which is Retribution , Benefit or reward . Likewise all kinde of safegard is raised from hence , that hee is defended and Iustifyed , upheld & mainteined and glorified . hee is heard and accepted when hee calleth . And both vp and down sleeping and wakeing hee is ever susteined . and his Enimyes are withstood , and are to be offended and plagued for him . and this is the blessing that hee is grace-ed withall , by his prayer and request to God. the trebleing of the wordes shew the intent . The Genesis is the plurall number in Grammer called in Hebrew leshon rabbim . mentioned by treble admiration of the multitude of his Enimyes , and also his defyance of them , though they farr exceeded , and also his confidence in this grace of God and blessing , which hee findeth all manner of security and all kinde of salvation from him , which is righteousnes and euerlasting life , ps . 24 , 127 , 133. &c. Gen. 15. PSALM . IV. RIghteousnes and Iustice is his God , as Psa. 109 , and his glory is his Law , and his cheeff respect is the light therof , Psalm 92 , 93. from whence is all his comfort , and deliverance , and joy of hart and peace and secureity . Ps. 21. and from hence hee looketh for releeff in all distress , and is sure to be heard , when hee calleth , as Ps : 50 , 91. and concealed and glorifyed . therfor hee reprooveth their reprocheing of him with the superstitious vanityes of their religion and fals God-heads , willing them not to offend in any such commotion against him , but to be contented , quietly vpon their beds , hartily to sacrifice , the Sacrifices of Righteousnes unto God , and cleer themselues before him , as Ps : 84. and then to trust in him for salvation . seeing the resistance heerof is reprobation , as in the divers oblations of Cain and Abel . From the one with a great deal of stirr and fals-hood : from the other , quiet Innocencey of Confession upon his bed , and uprightenes , as an evening offering without sinne , Ps , 141. beeing led by the law according to the wordes , most conveniently agreeing . Genes : 4. For Construction ; according to the fowerth letter , which signifyeth a doore , hee mentioneth all along many kindes & properties of doores : that hee would open the doore of instruction , by the lifting up of the light of his countenance ▪ and keeping in security : that hee will widen to him in distress : the Lord will hear him : the wicked open their mouthes to his reproch in lyes and vanityes : the Lord will shut him within the vaile to him self ; hee commandeth them to their chambers , and to silence and to shut their mouthes : and that the Eternall keepeth the hous safe : and maketh us sleep secure , and hee shuts the doore . From Doore the opening and shutting and keeping is the Mystery . so righteousnes is the doore , ps : 118. and standeth for all sacrifice , as the doore of Fayth , and all sacrifice must bee at the doore , Genes : 3. The Genesis is that part of Grammer called , biclam . to wit , fower letters . b.c.l.m. by which the gerunds are performed . being added to the Infinitive at the begining , intended in the wordes Chebhodhi le climmah in reproche of my Glory , which was all the practice of the wicked : and his correction of them , that they would be silent , and thinck nothing but right in their harts upon their beds , by the words , bilbhabhchem al mishcabhchem . wher the letters biclam are again repeated to assure you . The third Psalm shewed all the kindes of Salvation : so this psalm , the way . PSALM . V. YF any man seemeth religious and refraineth not his tong but deceiveth his hart : that mans religion is vain . The like may be sayd of other partes and affections . Now becaus the wicked and mischeevous men haue no dwellings nor habitation with God , and are marked to be cast out of doores , as boasters , molestors , and vexers ; lyers , murtherers and deceivers : which can not inherit the kingdom of God : hee early , ernestly and duely seeketh the same and the righteousnes therof , for his Guide and protection and to explane his way , as an Enimy to all transgression and hypocrisy ; and prayeth , that ( for dissembling ) his enimyes may bee faulty , as Psal. 109. and Ashamed in all their wayes , and faile of their purposes ; for rebelling against God and their own hartes : and that hee and all that love his name , may triumph to see the righteous , how gratiously hee is protected , blessed and defended for ever , and this according to the Sinn offring lyeing at the doore , which is the resort of the Godly ; for a morning prayer , that as the last Psalm teacheth how to goe to bed : so this same , how to rise , from Gen 4 , also . The fift , and the letter He , which is behold as He Jedignah , and signifyed in wordes of all kinde of beholding . Lead mee by thy righteousnes , and direct mee in thy wayes : and in the negatiue or contrary , hee hath no pleasure in the wicked ; they shall not dwell with him , they shal not bee in his presence ; hee hateth them and lotheth them , Ps. 101. and looseth and destroyeth them : forsaketh them and scattereth and destroyeth them ; the corrupt and hidden subtilty and rebellion against God can not bee seen , and for their flattery by Salomons rule , their childrens eyes should be put out , to hearken , to look abroad , to com in his hous ; to doe worship as his servant in his Temple ; Gods protection and covering of him , with a shield of grace which is fayth and is for the mystery of construction in direct and opposit imagination . This for presence to behold and see , Ps. 101. for presenting his oblation and morning prayer which hee would haue marked by the letter and terme He , to say loe , behold , and by the presence of God and approching of the Godly also . The Genesis is he Iedignah a letter of denotation , wherby hee prayeth for right direction , and a plain way , becaus ther is no certainty in his enimyes mouthes : that can not be known , by means of dessembling , makeing thēselues more then treaspassers , rebelling against all truthe : also by the notable triumphing for the wonderfull favour , and admirable blessing and salvation upon the righteous , for degrees of Ioy , expressed in sundry wordes ; and also of grace . PSALM VI. THe whole tenor of his life beeing just , now the Prophet hath made Iustice his God , Ps. 4. and righteousnes his King and God , Ps. 5. for his whole trust and comfort , safe conduct and protection : according to the honorable way propounded in the argument , Ps. 1.2 . which is a priuat way of salvation that the wicked can not bee ware of , nor acquainted with , Ps. 3. hee meaneth , well to shew the same , in makeing it the tenor and conclusion of all the book , and of euery Psalme conteyned in it , for a perpetuall rule of necessity : the band of construction , and the light of the mood and meaning . And according to the definition of Iustice , which is to giue euery man his due : to pay all men according to their work and deserving , as Ps. 62. and to requite them with the measure that proceedeth from them : hee now feeling the terror that is Enimyes haue caused : and the trouble in his mind , by their vexation : can well tell , what to ask of God , justly to fall upon them . And as hee feeleth the wrath of hell , and snares of death , that draw men into their graves , Ps. 18.55 . by a wasteing consumption of the flesh ; throughout , his body : hee prayeth for his own deliuerance out of this burning choler , which hee calleth the wrath of God ; by his mercys in due time , Ps. 13.30 . and that his enimyes may not see his destruction , Ps 8.25 . which they wish : And as it hath been a long threatning of death which hee indure-ed : so that they themselues may bee , throughly terrifyed , and utterly confounded with horror , and suddainly ashamed and astonyed , to see his acceptation and recovery , Ps. 41. And this from thanks and peace offring and sacrifice of remembrance , Lev , 3.7 . for Gods mercy upon true penitencey and confession , which Death and the pitt can not perform . But is heere expressed by this his terror and bashfulnes even to consumption . Like the falling down of the countenance of Cain , by the wordes of terror and bashfulnes repeared , which thing the very number of the Psalme , the letter Van doth signify ; which also signifyeth a hook or crook . So , that hee would not lay hold on him , and seize on him in his anger , but pittyfully , and gentle-ly ; becaus hee is weak and so terrifyed soul and body , by his sore hand so long upon him : and that therfor hee would heal him of all , and releas him and let him goe , rather then destroy him ; and saue him from the grave , from whence , ther is noe redemptiō not fetching again . His sighes fetch teares , and his teares pull out his eyes , by the provocation of his afflictors . Hearing and receiuing , his request , and prayer , and bashfulnes , and terror of the enimy to draw them back : is all the mystery of the construction . The Genesis is Vau hippuc in grammer , for changeing the times that make-eth the time past , the time to come and also the contrary , beeing joyned to the one , it makes the other , and therfore is called Vau , the contrary , or Vau the changeable or conversive . Gods angry correction by David his enemyes , and his terror and indignation hath throughly translated him and changed him ; therfor hee would an utter confusion and alteraion of their estate : which is seen , by the comming of the same wordes on bothe sides , first on his part , and after for his enimyes , and also doubled in either place , to make them markable ; for such passions turne men again , and changeth and altereth them , by a neat resemblance . PSALM VII . ALL a mans Glory is his life , and all his brightenes is the uprightnes therof , which was excellēt in David , and heerby , hee shine-ed before all men , as Ps. 132 , Therfor hee maketh Iustice his rule , and his rule , his soveraigne lord ; and his King , his God and religion ; by all allegiance . Heerin hee trusteth for all his secureity ( in his greatest affliction and persecution ) for deliverance , for the pureity and integrity of his minde , and syncerity of his hart ; against which , yf hee hath varyed : hee considereth and craveth the judgement due without favour , if hee be guilty of the imputation , and wrong : as to repay his foes or bee revengefull upon his causeles enimyes , as in case of Saul and Absolom impute-ed by Shemei : that his glory may cease , and his life be abase-ed , and all his estimation com to nothing . Cruell and deadly weapons are provide-ed for cruell persecutors , while they plott and conceiue and work destruction by subtile dissembling and fals-hood : their own plots and pitts catch thē , and the cruell strokes of underminers bring the earth upon them . And becaus such was the end and judgement of his enimyes , the wicked , that in malice still work their own destruction : he thanketh God for his justice , and commendeth the calling upon his name . The Construction is in cleering himself of revenge , becaus it belongeth to God only , and of the seven-fold judgement of God , Gen. 4. according to the figure of seven the number of the Psalme , the letter Zain , due upon persecutors , he shewes also the way of his judgement , as all Gods wordes are judgement , Deut. 33. The Genesis is in Pagnal , a part of speech , which is to work : for all a mans work bringeth judgement , Eccl. 11. which thing will plainly appeer , yf the wordes of persecution , deliverance , work and judgement be considered , with the repetition and declination of them ; for all is but the work of man and the work of God , and the end of bothe . PSALM VIII . BEcaus all Gods service is against his Enimyes , & all his Doctrine for the Salvation of his people : which hee hath made , a statute for Iacob , and an everlasting rule for Israel , Psal. 80. to binde him by the law of Iustice ( as in these former Psalmes ) which David maketh his God , Psal. 4. and that the very name heerof is a deadly weapon against Satan and all afflictors , and the calling upon God , the moste soveraigne safegard of the church , as Ps. 7. which so commendeth it : when hee bringeth up his children in it , and teacheth them this rule in their ABCes , as in Ps. 25.34.37.111.112.119.145 . and for the letters , in the rest , even through the book : to shew , that the workers of wrong , work their own destruction , and this is the Grammaticall lerning that hee hath trayned his church up , in , to make them skillfull in their warr , and their fingers cunning to the battail against his Enimyes . Hee speaketh to the former ; by Admiration heerof , so keeping the story of the persecution , all along with the meanes of deliverance ; hee steppeth from Psalme to Psalme . And now , hee admire-eth the noblenes of his Name , for the boldnes of Gods children by their fayth and confidence , which hee hath founded upon the righteousnes therof , as on a Rock : and the perfection of Infants in the law , and their strength against their Enimyes , as was that of David in his youth , Ps. 119. M. and the preheminence of wretched and sorrowfull Man , and the great grace of God upon him , above more bewtifull creatures , beeing preferred to the dominion and moste glorious Lordship of all the creation . Makeing him heerby next to God in glory and worship , and able to asswage the mightyest Enimyes Ps. 11.16.25 . By walking the Sea , Ps. 65.77 . From the calling upon God in the Dayes of Enosh Gen. 4. Ps. 116.118 . For the strength of Salvation . And this is the weapon David useth against Goliah , when hee playeth upon that Instrument of Gath , the great Goliah of Adversity , and Captivity of Phelistia . The construction is in the term Heth , for the eigtth letter , and number of the Psalme , which signifyeth subjection , and awe of all creatures unto Man , in Shem , a nown , another part of speech in hebrew . The Genesis is his Name , the Excellency wherof is pointed at , in the first and last verses , also in the end of the 7. And beginning of the 9. For the nown and name set upon all creatures , in heaven & earth . Gen : 2. and the strength of lerning in the Elements , to commande them . PSALM IX . POverty sayeth Salomon in his Parables , cometh like an armed man , and as it is a terrible thing : so the affliction of the church and the defendour and their greevous adversity , persecution and captiuity , is well heer resembled by the story and person of Goliah , and his death . Who comming with all the odds in the world for stature , yeers and weapons , wherby hee seemed invincible , yea , even as matchless as death it self , so that the state of the church , and David himself , now beeing at deathes doore with the terror of their own affliction : and haveing noe other weapons then the Law , and five bookes of Moses , and their confidence in the righteousnes therof , as their God : and the calling upon his name for his defense : and the preaching therof , as the five smooth stones out of the river : which hee had in the budget of his bosome , and slung out of his mouth , as Ps. 40. and in the name of this God of hostes , of Israel , hee setteth out against the Giant ( ther beeing no odds against God ) and slew him , and rather ( as men say ) slew the divill : for this victory hee commendeth the Iustice of Gods Iudgement , and chaunteth out of his invincible Name and service of him , according to the former Psalme . The Iustice heerof is , as they the Phelistines pretended Terror : that they now meet with their match , and are knocked in the head by the Prophet , that feareth them by the word of God , as Ps· 56. that feareth not the face of Man. And this is terror for terror , that man should not presume , with might to oppress , seeing ther is no prevailing against God. And that the hethen & all earthly men should know , and feel their own thraldom and wretchednes , by a work of their owne handes . and this for the person of Enosh , for a sorow-full time . Gen. 4. likewise a Thanks-giveing , vpon the death of that proud and mighty champion , and Gods Iudgement vpon him . The letter Tet doth signifye filthy durt and dust of the street or of the floore : and Teta is also to sweep away . Heerto is resembled the corruption of mans wayes Gen ; 6. and the sweeping them away by the deluge & by all maner of sweeping & swift condemnation of the Law , wherin God doth raigne , and hath his Throne , Ps : 29. And such is the Iudgement of God that teacheth the wicked their Lesson , and saveth the Iust , Gen. 6.7 . the same word that drowneth the one , is an Ark for the other . The Genesis . is Millah , the other part of speech in hebrew , called the word , or the particle , beeing neither nown nor Verb. And for to signyfye so much , hee bringeth all the Abce double , in two verses . in the wordes : the Hethen are sunk , &c. which wordes beginn with Tet , becaus the letters are members of the word , and of the Ark of Salvation called Tebhah . And thus is the wickeds Iudgement from God , moste Iust. They are drowned in their own corruption . Only the letters Tsade and Aleph , which make Tse , exi , for exception or Tse : excretum , are not at all mentioned among them . Becaus thes letters make , goe out , of the Ark : they are left out of the Ark : that is the Abce . Gen. 8. PSALM X. EVery prevailing is a Giant , and every overcomming , a man of a great stature , and every Captivity , a Goliah . When the wicked get the vpper hand , and brag of their wills and their harts desire , and stand at defiance , like the Phelistins , by the mouth of Goliah : then the world goeth hard , and it is a sore and a painfull time , and the people of God are in a sorrowfull case . So now , they beeing wonderfully dejected terryfyed and daunted , and takeing themselues almoste forsaken : call upon God ( their fortress , as Ps. 9. ) as yf hee wer now out of hearing , and out of sight also . And becaus they need incouragemant out of the word ; their request to God is , that their Enimyes may bee over-reached , and taken in their own reaches , and drawn with the nets of their wicked thoughtes , seeing they haue no thought of God , but blaspheme all parts of his name ; thinking to destroy the poore unregarded , and to slay the innocent and harmless , in secret , and to draw them by heapes , by their terror and deceipt , against the Iudgement and power of God. For pride of their prosperity , they can not see God , nor his determination : so that as hee lyeth in secret ; Gods purpose may bee ever unknown to them ; and seeing wickednes , deceipt and terror is all his power : that God would serch it all out , and break his malicious arme , and help the poore that rely on him . And as God abideth not the Hethen in his land : so that hee would listen , and graunt the request of the meek , that they may injoy their possession according to the Promiss , and to make thē stout and couragious ; and to defend the poor and cōtrite Orphans , that the earthly men bee no more a terror to thē . Prosperity makes thē proud , and pride makes them without judgement , and so , they blaspheme that part of his Name . Besides , for Gods patience , they question his power , and blaspheme an other part of his Name . And also thirdly , presume against the everlasting Iustice of God , that condemneth all the hethen , and expelleth them out of the inheritance of the Lords Dominions , as Ps. 2.114 . that heer hee would answer them with his word , and put a good courage in their harts , against all these ; that no cowardize or terror assail them any more . Construction . Iod , the tenth , is a hand . The hand of the wicked and the hand of God conteineth all . The wickeds hand is mentioned in reckoning all kinde of corruption of man , Gen. 6. and excess of wickednes : in thought , in word , and in their wayes . Gods hand is an utter destruction of them , and a revenge of wrong , and releeff of the oppressed , according to Ps. 9. Ther is nothing but ill in the arme of the wicked : and his confidence is to remain still , becaus hee is , in no ill : he prayeth that God would break this Arme of his , by findeing out the ill that is in him , to wit , rang in rashang , ill in the terme of a wicked man. The Genesis , is in Iod Gentíle , the nations feele the judgement of God , and are wipe-ed clean out of his land for ever , according to the work of their own handes , Ps. 9. For as the ninth handled the judge and judgement : so this Psalme handleth the Cause , coheering therunto , and belonging to the same . PSALM XI . HVmility and innocence makes men bold , and this maketh the poor to leave themselves upon the providence of God in al distress , in the last Psalme . Yf men be but a litle tryed , how happy are they yf they trust in God , and rely on him , Ps. 2. and what a defense is hee to all that relye on him , as Ps. 18. And this maketh David a moste resolute man , that how soever they seek to terrify him , with the wicked against him , and preparation and readynes of expedition and secrecy against upright mē , to destroy and overthrow all good indevours of thē : and will haue him to fly and secure him by the hills , as birds doe , and like unto Lot in distress , yet beeing sure , that the judge of all the world will doe right , his whole rely is on God ; who in his holy temple and the Sacred Scriptures , well seeth the dealing , and hath experience of all men . And becaus hee approoveth the just and detesteth the injurious ; the wicked shall taste the cup of his wrath , and the just God , that loveth uprightnes , wil regard him . Hee thus relyeth upon his approbation by the word of God , and the condemnation of his pursuers , by the Terms of just and wicked men ; and will not hearken to other refuge , as Ps. 75. after the Story of wicked Sodom and just Lot , Gen. 19. Construction . Iadah , is to cast : or shoot , and Aleph is instruction , the wicked shooteth at all uprightnes and oppugneth learning , to destroye it , and God casteth snares and fire and brimstone at him , the wicked envyeth the just , but God regardeth him , by Gods eyes and affection and action , is meant kindes of casting . The Genesis is the equall division of the 22 letters into radicalls and servils , the radicalls are in these : Ch , t , S , ph , r , G , z , ng , T s , d , q , which are the ground-work and m , sh , h , u , C , l , b , A , I , th , n , in which are the ferviles . These are allotted for slavery , captivity and stormes of disturbance ; for desturbing , like the wicked and injurious : when God hath the just allwayes in his eyes , which are the fundamentall Radicals . PSALM . XII . THe true way of Godlynes is Grace and truthe , kindenes and faythfullnes , fayth and love , as Ps. 25. which is the life of a just man , the Soul of the law and foundation of the church ; which flesh and blood can not reveal or make visible to the eyes of man. Now in time of Lot , when in a citty was not a just family ; no , not ten just persons could be found to redeem it , for the abundance of iniquity and Dominion of Sinn that reigned among them : hee asscribe-eth it wholely to base people in authority ; that are full of flattery , bragging , pride and dissembling , of willful riot and churlishnes , that will abide no instruction , that haue no gentlenes or faythfullnes or honesty in them : and this hee maketh also a sorrowfull and a greevous time , and a moste improsperous season for good men : that hee cryeth , God help , as yf they wer all gon , and eaten out by devourers , Ps. 14. Now becaus God hath promissed to saue the church from all kinde of conspiracy , spoile and persecution , and to hear their cry : and that his word is throughly tryed and found never to faile , but is above all his service , Ps 138. and whatsoever he sayeth , that commeth to pass , and is made good and confirmed : hee prayeth God to preserve the faythfull and the meek , from the children of this world . And for the purenes and approvednes of this word , as Ps. 119. is : that hee would cutt of all flattering , and dissembling-hollow-harted worldlings , and wicked men , that thus rise and conspire against the meek . Construction . The letters are to weep , or houl , and accordingly the time is lamented and the poor cry : when nothing but cruelty and pride and falshood raigneth . The Genesis is Moshe ve Caleb , seven of the servile letters , when no such as Moses for meeknes , nor Caleb for fidelity , can be found . But cruelty , and pride , and falshood is the property of slaues , especially in authority , beeing weighed , numbred and divided . PSALM XIII . COuld yee not watch with mee one hower ? Mē destitute of the Law and understanding therof , haue cold and heavy hartes ; and are so much troubled in adversity , with fainting and drowzines : that they will not only forsake their freendes ; but evē thēselues also ( yf it wer possible ) without pursueing , in a litle extremity . David , by looseing the way of God , often looseth his courage , looseth the feeld and flyeth , and is overcom and ashamed , and hee is in great sorrow and distress . God is angry with him , the Scriptures turn away their face , they will not abide him , becaus hee hath neglected them , and cast his wordes behinde him , as Ps. 50. they think not on him , they care not for him , they neither esteem him nor succour him . The waters therof bear him not , but hee sinketh when hee walketh upon them . Now becaus this is a persecution of ignorance , and a distreess of negligence , hee prayeth for Gods loveing countenance again toward him ; his comfort and succour and repairer of him , as Ps. 51. that as the eye is the light of the body , and the purenes of the Commandement of God giveth light to the eye , Ps. 19. so that God would instruct him in the pureity , simplicity and singular cleernes of the Law , to saue him . Lest hee should fall a sleep in sensuality , and dye in trouble , and perish immortally by tentatiō . While his afflictors vaunt greatly and rejoyce of their prevailing ; and his fall by them : that his hart may confidently rejoyce in the wonted way of his salvation , and hee may sing of Gods grace and loveing kindenes that hath don so much for him . And so , as light delivereth out of Darknes , Ps. 97.36 . So , out of his intolerable greeff , and sorrow ; hee calleth for the compassion of his God , the eternall , trusting wholely upon his grace and loveing kindenes to revive him . Construction . Jag , the letters 13. are to greeve , hee complaineth of his greeff in all kindes , and desireth to be eased , that his enimyes may not rejoyce , and hee may sing , for the goodnes of God unto him . The Genesis is Ethan , A , I , Th and N , the declineing of the future tens in the beginning of the word , as in the first letters of the fower first wordes , and the fower admirations together shew . Ethan , signifieth strong and hard , Ier. 5. such as was the hand of his enimyes upon him . PSALM . XIV . THe harts of men are full of evill and a generall madnes sweyes them , while they live . By their workes you shall know them . Lay them to the Law , Ps. 15. and wher is one good or kinde or faythfull man , Ps. 12 ? Bring them to the word , Ioh. 1. and doe they not all stink and favour of corruption , for ill dealing ? shew them the Scriptures , and consider the body of them , and goe they not clean contrary , and turn quite an other way ? doe they not al rebell abominably in willfullnes , as yf ther were neither God nor any opinion of goodnes among them ? haue they not vaine imaginations ? are not their foolish harts full of darknes , when they call not upon God , nor seek after him , nor any behaviour of Godlynes ? Now how are the holy people of God spoiled , as Ps. 12 ? And the whole church eaten out with profane-nes , devoured and consume-ed with idolatrous contempt and reproche , by their captivers and molesters , Ps. 79 ? when the Feare that they fear and the God that they reverence and worship ; in the generation of the Iust : the poore is made to distrust , and to be abashed of their relying on him , Ps. 1. for suffering of so great reproche ? That a man would think , ther were no God that regarded them . So complaining of the general corruption of man , and of the greevous calamity of the church , under the Hethen that profess not God , as Ps. 74.79 . for that it freats them to death , beeing allmost in despaire : hee prayeth for deliverance , and a return of them from captivity , to praise God and rejoyce , and be merry again in Sion ; their glory , their secureity , confidence and Salvation , Ps. 53.56 . Construction : Iad , the letters that signify a hand , are heer taken for work and also for counsel , which two kindes runn through the Psalme , to the handy work of captivity . Leading away and bringing again , arguing still ab effectu : denying God by their deeds , either idle or dooing wrong . The Genesis , is in the 4 quiescents and idle letters with the hebrews , called E he vi , and Grammarians , the sonns of Noah , or children of rest , which becaus they are the letters of the Name of God and are not pronownceed : they are sayd not to call upon God , and to deny God : in the words Iehovah lo quaraow : as the Athists , that will haue none of his wisdom , nor any such understanding : mark the fower Jehovahs and the fower Elohims , mark the fower eins , for a quiescent Iod. For beeing idle and dooing no good , mark the vers . all are gon away , &c. wher al fower are mentioned , mark fear , for one of the 4 , Elohims , as Ps. 53. and conclude that the mystery is in Iehovah , and so in Ehevi , as before . PSALM XV. THou art Peter , and upon this rock will I build my church , and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it . How shall a yongman keep clean his way , Ps. 119. b ? what way shall hee take for eternall life ? How shall hee save himself that hee fall not , and that his enimyes prevaile not over him , as Psal. 13. seeing the Godly are so few , and good men so rare , Psal. 12.14 ? wher is the rout and assembly of thē ? are they known by their dwelling or by their guests ? Surely the tabernacles of God are with men , and hee suppeth , and dine-eth , and sojourneth , and dwelleth with whom hee like-eth , and so dwell they invisiblely with him . And this tabernacle of God and Mount of holynes , is nothing but the habitation of Godlynes in man , after they once receiue him ; they dwell with God , who hath him in their mindes : and God dwelleth with thē that love him and keep his commandemēts , and their wayes are unreproovable . And for this , hee wondereth that ther is any way to it , or that any man can ascend to it , seeing the way is so strait and strict that leadeth unto life , and the entrance therinto so hard to finde . What things are to be don , who is the childe of Godlynes , and who shall dwell with God and liue perpetually , and what kinde of church shall never be mooved . So hee describe-eth the church of God by the statutes therof , with a promiss of eternity to the performers , Ps. 133. who they are and the greatnes of their glory , is expressed over and above in the 24 Psalme , by the royallty of their entertainment , and also as Psalme 101. The doore of righteousnes , Ps. 118. and also by the fifteen Psalmes of Ascensions thither , Ps. 120 , &c. called the Psalmes of degrees . This is the way of God and of the just , Ps. 25. which shall not perish , Ps. 1. and the wise mans profound and sure building , upon a rock , that abides all wether against the sandy shallownes of the wicked , in the former , Psalme 14.9 . & 1. which the flood commeth and sweepeth clean away , Gen. 6.7 . For the Ark and Noahs walking with God , in thought , word , and deed : an upright man. This is , the work of salvation which must be wrought for the inheritance of eternall life . Construction : The letters Tau , that signify to spinn , as ther is a threed of life : doe heer import extortion , oppression and detraction . For thes all bee proper , by wringing and wresting from his neighbour , to diminish him . Beside , by the letters apart , Tet , is the contēptible dust of the floore , rejected of all ; and Vau is the love of the Godly , and hooking , by wrong giving and receiving . The Genesis is the tabernacle , which is the Ark , and that the word , that rested upon the hills of Ararat , and hee that shall abide in it , is Noah , to wit , the quiescent or som letter of grammer ; while hee is just and upright , Gen. 6. to his neighbour or next letter , for so long shall a letter abide as his fellow can indure him , and yf his behaviour faile : hee is either changed or put clean out , but with som token of corruption and deficiencey ; and this you may wel see in the two defective wordes , Nathā and Laquah wher , in declineing neither N , nor L. can abide for offending . By 3 dooings and 3 refreinings , twise the like . PSALM . XVI . WHer a mans treasure is there is his hart , and what is a mans God but his cheeff delight , Ps. 4 ? And what pleasure is ther like to salvation ? and where is the fullnes of Ioy , but the redemption from Ignorance ; the light and knowledge and perfection in the Law of God ? a way of a virtuous life without corruption , Psal. 14.15 . a way of Immortality , a way not of the flesh , but of the Spirit , a way , not of worldly walking , but of Godly Cariage , a liveing , true and everlasting way , as ps : 1. a moste pure and clean way , both for reverence and performance ps : 19 ? This is inward and outward Iustice , consisting in sayth and love ps : 25 ; the Grace and Truthe of the Gospell , for charitablenes of intention and faythfullnes of performance in every work . Now becaus this Righteousnes is the Sacrifice that is to be sacrifice-ed , & the Iustification of a man that will be saved , Ps : 4 ; and not any outward oblation : and becaus it can double the kings dayes , and preserve him that relyeth theron , as Psal. 61. and that all Davids nightly consultation , and his innermost Ioy , and even his reines delight in the Instruction of it : and that God is all his good ; his part , his share , his cup , his Lot and measures of Inheritance , and all moste goodly to him , in his leviticall blessing : and that all his birth , and parentage , and beginning and end of dayes is the study of the word of God ( like Melchisedek ) to keep him from falling as Ps. 15 : and beeing sure by these graces , hee shall not dye till hee bee perfect in the way of life , and see the full Ioy and pleasures of the word , and sweet exposition therof , by the Ministry : the Kingdom of Heaven , a celestiall government , and Ioy of the holy Ghost ; ps . 49.27 : hee is made exceeding merry therwith ; and accounting all other invocation or relye intolerable : hee will have all his welth and good , and delight , and pleasure whatsoever , to be nothing , in respect of God and this his Name , and way of Salvation , Ps. 4. And becaus his whole relyeing is upon God , and hee is a Saviour of all them that relye on him , Ps. 17. and this is all his way of Salvation ; and becaus hee will haue no other God , nor worship nor esteem any thing in the world but him : he prayeth to bee preserved by him . And this from preserving the tree of Life Gen. 3. And so purgeing himself of all idolatry , vain triumphing , pride , glory and reioyceing in worldly things , and relying whole-ly vpon God , and makeing divinity his portion , and is counselled by his word , and preferreth his Law , Ps. 127. hee is greatly cheered , and is throughly confident of all preservation , and of a long and pleasant life , that is ever before God , propounded by his Ministry , called his right hand , in his church . as Psalm 73.110 . Construction . The two letters pointeing at Jehovah , shew absteining from all strange Gods ; and also his Ioy in the Ministry . hee taketh Iad a hand , in all his senses , for might welth , Sorrow , place , lot or quarter of inheritance : to counsel , teach and maintein ; and the right hand for promotion . Vau is taken privative , with negative signes , that though the signification be craveing as is the term hook or crook : yet by construction , it is sayd as wel to leave , and let goe , as to hold ; as both are the propertyes of a hand also . Genesis : The kindes of quiescents are many , as welth , and pleasure , and delight , and Ioyes , and counsell and instruction from God. They are for his harts ease , like a Mariage day : Gods word gives him all content by the Ministry , his right hand , in which words the Name of the Eternall so sweetly resteth , and that without deficiencey . For hee refuseth all the contrary , with note of deficients as Iod in Iissarowni and Nun thrise with bal. And thus by avoyding of Defection hee mainteineth the Quiescents . PSALM XVII . LAy up for your selues treasure in heaven , wher neither moth nor canket ? ? corrupteth , nor theeves break through and steal . David observeth from Samuel , that moth-eaten and rusty imagination of Saul ; how hee robs God of his honour by his disobedience , and the worm of his corrupt conceit , that all together neglect his commandement and break it , to have his own will and pleasure fullfilled , for som respect that hee graved to himself , and worshipped : by his estimation of the goodly things of the world , Princees and fatlings . Which becaus it is rebellious transgression , and a willfull offense against the Law of God , not to obey the word of his mouth : but to bee bewitched with his pleasure , and to make an Idol of his will : and marking this well : hee excuseeth himself of counterfeiting in his prayer , or dissembling in his request unto God , but that all is according to justice and equity ; and that hee will bee tryed by God that seeth all . Therfor hee requesteth ernestly , that his steps may be kept still in the Law of righteousnes , Ps. 16. that his feet slip not into the wayes of them that fall , and that hee follow not a king , or please a multitude in doing of evill : and for this , hee justly prayeth unto him that is saviour of all ( by his ministry ) that rely on him , Ps. 18. and hee haveing repose-ed all his treasure in God , & his undefiled way of righteousnes , Ps. 16. that hee will hide his grace-es and favours from them that rise against him , and that hee will keep him as watchfully , as the eyelid saveth the sleepy eye , Ps. 77. and protect him and save him , by his truthe , called the shadow of his wings , Ps. 91. from all his wicked enimyes that spoyl him , Ps. 12. and his ill wishers , that on every side lay siege for his life , that haue greasy thoughtes and proud words : and watch as greedily and as privily to overthrow him , as a lion for prey . Now , his life beeing in hazard thus among his opposits , that haue their bellye 's full of the treasure and blessings of this life ; and spare for their children after them ; that have their portion and delight therin , that are their own carvers in this world , and worship the work of their own handes , and their wicked inventions ; becaus they be enimyes of God ; that with his sword and his power , hee would stand before him , make them stoop , beat him down , and deliuer him ; seeing when hee awakes and beholdes in righteousnes , but the image of Gods Law , called his countenance , and hath a perfect understanding therof : hee hath enough and is satisfyed , and hath all hee looketh for , with full contentment . Construction : It beginnes with the letter Zain , to hear , and therfor hath all the words of that sense comming together in divers places . The other letter Iod , or Iad , a hand reacheth all over the Psalme , in the attributes , wayes and exploites of the wicked , and also salvation by Gods right hand , and by his sword and his hand from all such , bothe the letters make Iez to sprinkle , for the proud aspersion of the wicked . Genesis . For defectives hee sheweth his own syncerity that his mouth and his hart agreeth , and hee abandoneth the way of ravenous incrocheing and defective men ; which he maketh the moste prosperous in this life , which doth most spoyle . The token of deficients bal , thrise repeated , mortall men twise . They are counted dead men and deficient that haue their part only in this life . The wordes of deficiency , that in minde cast about to destroy , &c. His quiesciencey is in the image of God. PSALM XVIII . THe full assureance of understanding and the riches therof , is to know the Mystery of God the father and of Christ , in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge . Thou art my beloved sonn , in thee I am well pleased , in the last Psalme 17. hee prayeth hartily for the heavenly light and revelatiō heerof , and in this Psalme hee seeth the effect of his prayer . The heavens open , the spirit of meeknes descendeth after affliction , and hee becommeth wise , Psal. 119. th , after a sea of troubles , whē hee is baptized and haue passed through fire and water , and cō to refreshing , Ps. 66. and seeing hee is saveed , for putting all manner of rely and confidence in God , and God heard him , and is angry with his enimyes , and commeth with a mighty rage and terror , secrecy and swiftnes against them : and bringeth him out of affliction , and releaseth him , to shew his love unto him : and that hee should not call upon God in vain that keepeth his wayes : but that hee should be rewarded according to his righteousnes , and his innocency before him ; dealing still frowardly with his enimyes , but kindely with his servant , by giveing grace and salvation to the humble , and bringing down the proud looks . Now becaus ther is no way of salvation but Gods , and hee lightens his candle of understanding , and makes his darknes to shine , through which his way is perfect , for any breach or assalt , for relyeing on him : that ther is none but God that saveth him , by strength in his loynes , perfection of his way , surenes of footing , advantage of the ground , cunning of his hādes , and strength of his arme : that sheilds him and saves him , and that the lowlynes of God and his Ministry advanced him ; and thus did hee beat down his enimyes and hee was delivered , and they called in vain , for ther was none to save them , for they set light by his law , Psal. 137.50 . and God had hid his favours from them , and favoured thē not , according to his request , Ps. 17. and brought them low in subjectiō and consumed them , Ps. 55.59 . and made him a famous conqueror without strife . And for this , hee blesseth the God of his salvation for all , for his revenge , for his commāde , for his escape , for his advancement among the Hethen , and deliverance from that cruell one Saul , that was kinde to cruell Amalek . Therfor hee , will thank the Name of the everlasting among the heathen , for so great kindenes and salvation to him , and his seed for everlasting generations , Ps. 17. Construction . Heer ther are many handes , and that of divers sortes : the hand of God , the hand of the enemye , and the hand of David himself , and the hand of God hath the way of salvation , and a way of punishment . Hee saveth by light , sure footing , broad feet and sharp like deer , becaus David is pure handed . Hee punisheth with an angry hand , inevitable stormes of hail and fire , thunder and lightning , to shew subjection and Dominion deliverances and condemnation , becaus the enimyes hand is snares and affliction , and invasion . He giveth David all virtue and skill to uphold him , and also force to prostrate his foes , and destroy them , according to the letter heth , and also hee useeth Iadah , for thanking , that hee is never out of som signification , of som kinde of hand or other . Genesis : Gods name Iehovah is a rock , and everlasting , and his way perfect , and David sticketh close to it , for his sole relye and quiescencey , and is rewarded . His enimyes are the sonnes of Belial ful of defect , and therfor are revenged . The deficients may appeer when they are made as small as dust in the winde , and as inestimable as dust or dirt , and when they trust not to their handes , but shrink from their holdes , so the reward of the one is the defeat of the other . PSALM XIX . WHen they professed themselves to be wise they became fooles . Men thought to describe the mysticall image and glory of God , by rotten creatures of the earth , when his eternall power and godhead is considered in his method and way of creation , and redemption . Which , becaus it is a way , so wonderfull , and so miraculous , and his salvation so great , so remarkable , and notable , and admirable , in the eyes of men , Ps. 118. for the infinit constancey of his word , and everlasting love and righteousnes of the Law , that it seemeth to shine beyond all thinges in the world : It is called the glory of God , and that great , Ps. 138. and hee the king of glory , Ps. 24. For his blessing and beames of righteousnes upon the church . And this is the reformation , and the new creation that the heavens and firmament shew every day in the week , by renewing of knowledge over all the world . 1. The Law of God is perfect becaus it hath power of conversion , by shineing of the light therof round about us , 2. It is so credible a testimony and so faythfull as the heavens themselves , that the simple can beleeve it , and be instructed . 3. The provisos and statutes therof are very upright and plain , and delightfull for eminencey . 4. The commandement is as pure as the Sunn , to make a man circumspect , and addeth light to the sight , and is good for the eyes . 5. The Fear and honour of God is a clean cariage of a man , by an undefiled religion , that remaineth for ever . 6. And all his work is don by true and right-judgement , that makes his sentencees most sweet and delightfull to a reformed creature , and to haue domination and approbation over all . Thus by imprinting the manifest justice of the Law , called the glory of God , in the certainty of the heavens and their courses , to all countryes intelligible , Ps. 119. ? ? is . And compareing the Law and the visitation therof to the Sunn in all propertyes for his locks of heavenly knowledge , with a high estimation therof , for shewing him his way , Ps. 119. h , 149. and the knowledge of infinit transgressions : David prayeth for forgiuenes of all sortes of them , that in word and thought hee may bee uprighte with the eternall , and walk with God and keep an intire rest , in true holynes before him , and pleas him . From the creation , Gen. 1. And thus in six dayes , God hath made heaven and earth , &c. by illumination and confirmation of men in the true knowledge of him by his word , and bringing them to beleeve . And heerby hee becommeth their father , their life and creator , their saviour and redeemer , that they may both know him and also the way to him : even Iesus Christ the true and liveing way , even the very way of life , Ps. 16. Every day is a degree of knowledge till wee com to a perfection and rest in the light and judgement of the Law : the true light and perfection , the Sabbath . when sinn reigneth not over us , but our Conscience is cleer and our words and thoughts pleas God. Construction . The letters make Iet , of Natah , to spred , Ps. 104. and to decline . and incline , and a place of lyeing down , a chamber &c. and it hath the spreading of the heavens for his handy work , Ps. 104. For the Name of God , heer beeing might , importeth hand . The heavens are full of variation , and yeld continuall knowledge , all the world over , wher the Sunn hath his chamber , Solisque cubilia Gades &c. his riseing and inclineing and declination and operation : so hee declineth the Law , and defineth the same ; and his owne errors are for declinations . Genesis . In the Definition is all quiescencey : great riches , great sweetnes , great reward , great wisdom , great joy , great knowledge , and great purity , great warning : from which , considering his declineings , and divers defects : Hee would be purged of all ; that hee might rest in the favour of God , his rock and stay , redemption , sole quiescency and rely , Ps. 18. and that the quiescence is in this word . Mark , that Iehova is seven times repeated , to stay you therupon , and upon the law ; as the defection is in the declineing from it , and this is for a begining also . PSALME XX. LEt your light so shine before men , that they may see your good works , and glorify your father which is in heaven . Hee that honoureth father and mother more then mee , is not worthy of mee ; and the honour of Parents is the fulfilling of the Law and Commandements of God , Which is heer don by praying for the king : the preserver and defender therof . And this maketh the womb happy for bearing , and the paps for giving suck . Hee that in his distress calleth upon God ; doth glorify God , and hee it is that shall be set in the way of Salvation , Ps. 50.91 . and see his fill of dayes , with all contentment Ps. 21. And therfor , becaus the King is father and mother in this sens , for fostering and mainteyning , as well as God and his Law , for creating : it may well be sayd , fear God and honour the King ; for fear God and keep his Commandement , and honour thy father and mother , and hurt not thy neighbour , for an only religious and a devout man. Now with great devotion hee cryeth , God save the king , and prayeth for him . That God would honour him with all salvation , and giue him all his requests ( hee glorifyeth God by calling upon him in distress ) and that the Kings religious service of God may comfort and succour him in all distresses ; that the whole church may sing , and display their coulours for his salvation . With this conjecture and note of assureance therof , that the calling upon God standeth in more steed , and is more victorious to prolong his life and mainteine his inheritance , then Chariots and horses ; as is seen . For the service of God is the honouring of father and mother , and the calling vpon him , the onely help to prolong their dayes . And for this they bless the King , and pray for him ; for the mainteining of a right ministry . Construction . The name of the letter being Caph , a hand ; hee worketh upon all the propertyes : from holding , apprehending , or conceiving . The word Iagnan is made to hear , and this goeth through the Psalme , thrise used . Fortification , help , and upholding giveing , offering , and erecting , filling , all work of the hand ; and the right hand for the Ministry . caph , also is to crouch . Genesis . The Quiescency , the staff , and stay , and salvation of the King is in the calling upon God , and remembring of his Name , as Psalm 18. therfor is Name so oft repeated also . Wherby they hold , abide , and stand upright , and haue their fill of harts ease , and rest , consultation and request fullfilled , with all contentment . The word salvation 4. times repeated , Which is a royall quiescencey , when the contrary trust , and all vain confidence shall allwayes crouch , and haue defeat . So as the King standes by the Ministry : his salvation and safe standing , is in the perfection therof . The crouching which is another sens , of Caph and falling , is the signe of Deficiencey . the Vowells by the Grammarians , Elias and others : are called Kings ; which may be sayd , to call upon the letters Iehova , for to them , the quiescents haue relation & respect also , and are for a recreation or restauration of mankinde . PSALM XXI . THe strongest hold lasteth longest , so the Kings dayes and inheritance is made everlasting , for sticking to the strength of the Ark of God , Ps. 68.59 . and the life and righteousnes of the law that is in it . From whence hee hath his Dominion , and crown of Glory , and honour and worship , and all blessings that his hart or lips can desire , as Ps. 8.3 . and is chee●ed , and whet on , with the joy of his countenance , Ps. 4.41 . That for his fayth and love to God ; Gods loveing kindedenes shall lengthen his dayes a thousand generations , against all reproche , ps . 4. Highth and depth is not discerned a farr ; no more is the hart of a king , by his people , that they should be angry with him . And becaus fooles bolts are soon shott , and easyly slay with reproche , Ps. 14.15 . and put out his light , and extinguish his glory by Ignominy : Ps. 4. The Church willeth the King to bee glad , and rejoyce in God , and to bee thankfull to the power of his Law and Love , for his Salvation . They pray , that Gods power , and his Ministry , called his right hand , may ever finde out all his Enimyes and them that hate him , by his Iealousy , and burn them with his firey presence , like a furnace . Ps. 58.83 . and anger them with the opening of the word ; and consume and devoure them , by laying the Scriptures before them , and makeing them as a butt to shoot at . And that God would bend the Scriptures at them , and aime at their face-es , to destroy them , to the third and fowerth Generation , for angring of him and his Anoynted : for endevouring and attempting evill against him , and diviseing mischeeff that they could never atchive ; an Imagination impossible , to Kill him . That Gods strength may bee extolled , and his excellent power and virtue bee sung out in Psalmes , and commended . Thus hee thanketh God , for his mighty and unspeakable blessings upon the King ; with a presumption that hee shall never bee stirred , becaus hee trusteth in the Eternall ; who of his loveing kindenes defendeth them that trust in him , Ps. 18. and findeth out all his enimyes , and destroyeth them ; that the church may haue matter to sing Praises and commendations of him ; when the King is safe , and they are poseed or oppose-ed by the word of God , and as it wear , slayn by Objection . Construction . The letters are interpreted Caah or cavah to be obscure and dark , and troubled . First in the contrary sense , as of his countenance , that it be lightsom and to be in sight , thou hast set before him &c. makest him cheerfull before thee &c. at the time of thy presence , &c. a but &c. bend against thei● faces &c. Cavah to burn . To make them black with wrath as a firey oven , & put them out of the sight of men and of the world by destruction , and obscure them . Such is the repetition of the sense and words also to make it cleer . Genesis . His Glory , and honour and worship , and prosperity , and length of dayes ; beeing all that hee can desire , is . The Kings quiescency , Ioy and delight is in the Confidence and preservation of the Eternall without defect , let the King rejoyce in thy strength , &c. And seeing hee trusteth in the Eternall , &c. Bee thou exalted in thy Strength , O Eternall &c : and for Constancey : put them as a crown &c. thou puttest upon him &c. Set them as a firey Oven &c : Set them as a butt which is to plant fast , and so oft repeated . that whether for the quiescent or Defective it be firm . The constancey of the Letters of Jehova or Ehevi the letters of the quiescents , is great delight and ornament to vowels that call on them . PSALM XXII . IN the last Ps. 21. the King by trusting confidently in the eternall and the supremacey of godlines and excellencey of the promiss , Ps. 138. And soveraignty and way of love ; is sure of salvation . And this is his signe , his keeping himself undefile-ed in religion . His keeping of Gods word and not denyeing his name , and holding his fayth . Now Salomon sayth the way of God is strength to the upright man , like a Ps. 18. and so may the King well delight in his salvation , Ps. 24. hee that looseth his fay●h looseth his strength . And this strength , in this Psalme is called the morning strength , or strength of youth , the strength of the Law of God and way of godlynes . Which as the adulterers bestow the same upon the harlot and strange woman : so they that revolt from it , are called adulterers , and make the members of righteousnes the mēbers of an harlot , Ps. 73. and this is the matter of Davids complaint in this Psalme . That God hath left off saveing of him , cry hee never so sore , and his strength fayleth , Psal. 71. and why hee should not be saved by his faith , as well as the fathers of the church before him , like Hebr. 11. seeing his trust was upon God from his mothers brest , and had no other succour , but was wholeley cast upon him all his life . And why hee receiveth all reproche in the world , while they are highly commended : that his trust was so notable , that hee suffered all kinde of floutes , and mocks , and skorn for the same . His adversity is : the terriblest enimyes set upon him in the terriblest manner , and hee is as a man without any strength , and like a dead man , Psal. 88.71 . with neither courage nor strength to save himself , or face to look upon them . But is like water spilt on the ground , of no strength , quite lost and undon , his bones hang not together , his hart is molten , his marrow is dryed , and his tong cleaves to his Iawes , and that God hath even turned him to dust . They tear him in peeces and quarter him , like dogs and lions , that hee may see his bones in their mouthes , by their looks upon him , and his clothes divide-ed among them . Now that hee hath made himself so strengthless , so helpless , so vile in Name , and so sore in affliction , that of all men hee saw himself moste contemptible , and his distresses so nigh : hee prayeth to add continuall presence and favour and his speedy might again to deliver him and save him . That hee and all that fear God , the seed of Iacob and Israel , may declare and praise his name in the church , and glorifye him , and stand in aw of him for his grace and countenance and attendance to the humble and aflicted ; and they that seek God , may feed upon his doctrine with full contentment , and refresh their hartes for ever : that the ends of all the earth may therby , bee converted and haue minde to com to God , and Iaphet may dwell in the tents of Sem. And becaus the Kingdom and rule of all nations is Gods : that all the fanilyes of the Hethen may bow down and worship before him ; yea the miserable soules that haue no life in them ; and are going to their grave : may be fed and bow down and worship like him . That the gentiles may com in , to prais God and serve him , and be counted for his children ; and declare his Iustice , and tell what things hee hath don , to all that shall be born heerafter . The summ af all is this , that seeing hee was cast upon the Eternall from his birth , and hath had no friend but God in al his life ; hee that for deliverances had all the praises of Israel , and that hee hath committed no aduletry that way , Ps. 73. now in extreame distress , hee prayeth for speedy comfort , and not to bee cast off , that hee may also prayse God , and so that all people may be fed with his doctrine , that even the very hethen may admire it , and worship the eternall for his infinite Kingdom , and likewise becom his childeren to prais him . That God leaveth not his servant , in any low estate , nor despiseth them for any affliction , nor turneth at any time from his servants and children that turn not from him . his servants beeing counted for his children and generation , that all sortes should seek him , and not for any affliction change their God , seeing hee is King of all nations . Construction . The letters are to extinguish , or put out from Cabha , or to bee extinguished , as the seed of the godly , shall never bee . This is seen in repetition of the word seed of Iacob , the seed of Israel the Seed that serveth the Lord and feareth the Eternall , shall be an everlasting posterity and no affliction or adversity shall extinguish it . That feed upon the word and adore the Eternall . Thes words also are repeted , as caph , to bow ●arang , outcasts and afflicted , Dust , Ashes , aged , feeble , all degrees and kindes of extincts . His misery can not extinguish him , becaus the unquenchable spirit of the word comforts him . Caph , a hand , for might , beth , for be , ezra helping be ) as the grammarians call , and this sense and wordes is three times repeated . Far from may help , be not far , whē distress is nigh , and I haue no helper , Ps. 32. Is. 58. and ô Eternall my might make hast to my help , as goe the letters , so goe their allusions together , easy to be marked . Genesis : The mighty God hath left him helpless , and is far off , and the just God heareth him not , for all his calling . Though the fathers triumphed in his deliverance . But hee hath his delight in the mercyfull Eternall , upon their faith and cryeing to him . Their quiescency is their faith , his quiescencey is in his fayth in the Eternal , and his Kingdom , in the help of God. The token therof is in El & Ejaloth . For might , the same word in a double forme ; perfect and imperfect , and the words of delivering often repeated , and fayth , the means of help , be gnezra ha El , by the help of God. Hee is delighted with the invocation upon the Eternall , Ps. 14. which also is a reformation of man. PSALM XXIII . WHen God is sheepheard , then is the church the flock , Psal. 80. and the scriptures and word of God , the pasture , hee that in this Psalme is sheepheard , in the last and in the Psalme following , is King , as you see . Heer in , David findeth such refreshing and releeft in distresses , that hee reckoneth himself heerby , to abound , to be strong and rich , in all want , and poverty , and persecution what soever , that hee hath ever stusteined him , that hee need not despaire : for hee wanteth nothing that is good , Ps. 37. Now becaus ingratitude is a theevery , and not to restore , as great a stealth as taking by force : and hee hath received heerin , and heerby , the high●st blessings that can bee : and that they have been his guide , his meat , his drink , his companion , his feast , his anoyntment , his mirth , his peace , and plenty , in darck and cloudy times of adversity , and that in the sight of his persecutors : and hath still brought him through , for his own names sake , and to shew the power and strength of his word , as in Psal. 22. and therfor from hence hee getteth this resolution of thankfullnes , lest hee should seem to haue any thing that hee did not requite or pay for , which wear stealth . And becaus hee was so much bound unto God for his great bounty and love , all his life long , for the true service of him ; hee will bee his true servant to his lives end . And so , seeing by following the doctrine of the Law of God ; called the green feeld , and the quiet wate●s , hee wanteth nothing , his minde is converted , and himself guided the right way to all blessednes of this life ; and seeing in all doubtfull cases , hee hath great comfort and boldnes therby : hee resolveth to continue in the contemplation therof for ever . And this for one part of the way of God , P , 25. Construction : Caph , a hand , wherby hee leadeth him , and guideth like a sheep , Psal. 77.78 . by repetition of the sense in divers words to that purpose , leadeth , converteth , guideth . The office of a shephard . Ciph , a cliff or cave , which to a sheep is by nature most● fearfull , also any dark passage . The third part is from Ghimel , to reward or waine . As a sheep heard is a pastor or feeder : so heer hee maketh him awaynlings feast , as Gen. 21. and hee was ever favourable to him . That was his reward , as Ps. 62. Prov. 31. Genesis . His quiescency is the doctrine of the ministry , as Noah walked with God and found favour in his sight , Gen. 6. so hee is no way deficient , but for lodgeing , cours , directiō and diet , is about him , by him , before him , and after him , with all consolation , and comforts , and graces ? Hee aboundeth , by daylye feeding on the word . The quiescents are full in many words , to be marked , so hee is begotten and reformed by grace . PSALM XXIV . THe last Psalme 23 , was of the excellent Love and kindenes of God unto his faithfull servantes , and this of the truth and faithfullnes of his word , to them that loue him ; unite-ed in the next psalme 25. for the whole way of God. The maner of the creation argueth and truely testifieth the Creator : so the workes of a man be found to signify the hart , then yf the hart bee pure and clean : the testimony is good and true . Hee that hath neither wrought with his hands , nor thought wrong in his hart : a man that is true and faithfull and just with his tongue , and is not given to falshood , dissembling and deceipt : hee it is , that shall bee blessed of God and receiue the crown of righteousnes and salvation Ps. 4.133.134 . And thes are they that follow the Lamb. Apo. 19. Seeing this same and such was the very protestation of the Iewes and s●rvantes of God , and the church , which mightily excelled all nations , for pureity of profession and religion ; as Ps , 47. hee sheweth , that their Testimony is moste neighbourly , and moste Iustifiable before God ; and that all religion beside this , did t●st●fy falsshood , and was moste damnable to all . Therfor seeing in this Psalme , Religion is made a true protestation , or protestation of the truth , or verification , or justification , or truth it self : and faith and strength : Ps. 22. and illumination of the Law of God and glory of all men : Ps. 4. and that the God of this religion beeing truth , that rideeth on a white hors and fighteth valiantly , the written verity , and righteousnes , that excelleth in strength and victory , and is a mighty warrier : and the people of the Iewes and seed of Iacob the protestants therof : and becaus their religion and profession shone beyond all men , for Glory , which is righteousnes : Ps : 4. Therfor the Prophet maketh proclamation therof , and cryeth room for them , before all men , and all enter●animent and preferment to be given them , in all hollynes . Aeternaque ferri robera &c : the everlasting gates to be set open for them ; Which without all question or doubt , for glory , are the cheeffest ; and their God , the King of Glory . This is a pure and undefiled religion , free of all filthy conversation , wherby a man may live unspotted in the world , and unsteined of men . Construction . Caph the sole of the foot , and that in thes words , who shall goe up and who shall stand , beeing the office and property of the feet , as Ios. 3. Caph a hand : by innocent handes , which hee interprets the purity and syncerity of the Minde , and also the office , which is to take or receiue , as in Nasa repeated . Daleth a doore or gate often , as open your cheeffe gates , set up your mighty doores &c. This was the gate of the Eternall and the Princes only : the east gate of the temple Eze. 44. that never was to be opened , but for them . Ps. 118. Genesis . The quiescents , the letters Ehevi , mentioned in Chi how and mi how . And the letters Iehova are the replenishing of words , beeing written , as the Massorets call them . Which is the generall domination of them , in the perfection of wrighting . Hee that is not defect in his devotion , shall receive full quiescencey and content . Thee only haue I seen righteous , in this generation . Gen. 6. The syncere shall entertaine the kingdom of glory , the Kingdom of Righteousnes & bee exalted , dwell with God and rest with him . Thou art my beloved sonn , in thee I am well pleased . The quiescency is entertainment , and that is signifyed in Nasa , diversly taken , and Bo , diversly written . bothe full and defect , with a quiescent and without , called nah nirce and nah nister a quiescent seen , and unseen , written and not written . mark the repetition . PSALM . XXV . TO dash all worldly covetousnes , which is the root of all evill and the net of all intanglements , the witchery of all transgression and breach of all the Commandements , by the wickednes of the minde and liquorishnes of Imagination : he sheweth that his whole minde is set upon God , and the way of Godlynes , which is his faith and truth , and love ; as Ps. 23.24 . that his trust and whole relye is upon him , and that all his hope and expectation is in him , and all his waiting for him , and all his covet is his Law : Ps. 115. and all his honour & riches and glory and strength & delighte is God. And that hee may not fail of his direction heerin : that his minde is not set upon gain , but to the Law of God , Ps. 119. h. becaus Gods minde and promiss , and covenant , is to teach all them that will obserue his word , and to make the humble and meek moste learned therin ; and to set them well at e●s , and make them heires of the Land. Now when a multitude of enimyes haue a moste unjust hatred to him , and distresses very many and great are befallen him , and his affliction and greeff exceeding much , for his sinnes : hee prayeth , that for his dayly expectance , hee bee not deceived , nor ashamed of his hope ; but as his eyes are allwayes upon him , that God will teach him the right way of salvation , through his tru●he and everlasting mercyes and kindenesses to him . Ps. 143. That hee would forgiue the sinnes of his youth ; and pardon his extreame iniquity , that hee would rid him out all torments and paines of minde , and bring his feet out of this net , and saue his life , and deliver him : and pitty him for his great desolation and affliction . And s●eing the Eternall , in his uprightnes , is to teach sinners and them that fear him his wayes , acco●ding to his covenant to them : Ps. 1. to wit , Loveing kindenes and faythfullnes , Ps : 117 , to the keepers of his Covenants and Testimonyes : hee prayeth for instruction therin in an ABC facion , ( becaus it is the beginning of wisedom ) that so both hee , and the Church may finde both forgivenes of sinnes and deliverances out of all distr●sses ; considering his and their sound trust and waiting upon him . that hee and they goe not away abashed therof , Ps. 129 but ●hat they all bee confounded that wickedly and vainly transgress . Construction . The letters Cah of Cahah , is to be dark or blinde . Heerto hee opposeth waiting . Concerniing the one , hee speaketh all for direct●on , and for ●he other , all for Pardon ; lest sinn take away his sight , and make his expectation blinde . And all his confidence vain . The comming so oft round of the wordes will assure the sense . and the letters Quoph and vau , which spelled together doe signify to wait : are not in the Rew therfor , but wait . Genesis . To open thes everlasting gates of the ABC , his Doctrine heer is , the letters begad cephath with dagesh and Raphe . From hence , hee draweth sin , and affliction , and forgivn●s , Vav is exempted , for his crookednes , as in L , to signify cephath , crookednes , the one forme of the finals , bash them in the ent●ance , by the resounding of the term Albash , that are pervers and revolting . for dagesh , the strictnes of his misery , for Raphe , that is remission . By thes wordes , see mine Affliction , &c. And forgiue ; see mine Enimyes , in R. pardon mine iniquity ; in L. wher Vav is reviveed , but out of cours , that hee might be marked . And as crookednes is abandoned , so in them ; and hee prayeth that straitenes , and uprightnes , and simple purity may preserve him ; and that to be the way of redemption , by pe peshutah . or p finale . In this Psalme , hee personats the church , so that the net is the Captivity . Now for a finall redemption from all adversity : between pe cephuphah and pe peshutah in the ABC , a certain term is sett , tsarar , that spelleth 490 which is Tsarar the afflictor ; to shew how long the Affl●ctors and persecutors could raigne : in doubling of resh to tsade and skipping of Quoph even 70. sevens of yeers , Dan : 9. the Angel Gabriels knowledge , dureing many generations . Seven fold the misery of the Church , Ps. 8.6 . The sevenfold adversity to all Gods Enimyes . Ier : 25. This number is made by multiplication of zain by gnain . the one beeing made a principall , by exemption of Vav , and the other finall , by doubling of Pe. Ps. 34. Sinn makes all sorrow , so an enimye lasteth long , and ther must be long waiting , and much patience . The same summe maketh just the space f●ō Sauls reigne to the captivity , while the wicked keep the rew the Iust must wait & want a room . Vau is left out , for it signifyeth a hook or crook , to hold , as captivity , and this psalm is for deliverance or redemption , the contrary . Ps. 37. the summ . 490. is also found in the word shequets , Abomination : spoken of , Dan. 9. Matth. 24. that is a mark of the end of that dealeing , and foresheweth the desolation . PSALM XXVI ALL this haue I don . As the yong man in the Gospell , so David in this Psalme setteth out plainly what manner of man hee is , as touching the rule and Law prescribe-ed in the former Psalme ; measu●ing himself , and his cariage , and conversation throughly , by the line therof . And therby , looking upon himself as in a glass , and approoving his image and feature of Godlynes : presumeeth to offer him self unto God , for a faithfull , and a just , and an intire man , wholely dedicate-ed unto him . First According unto Ps. 15. for the first commandement , hee walketh the perfect-way of Godlynes , and it is ever before him . Ps. 25. and this signifyeth his Thummim , and perfection , as must be noteed in the first and last verses . 2. hee abides not any falsifyers , counterfeiters or dissembling hypocrites , but abhorreth all graven graven imagination besides the Law of God. 3. also hee hateth all wicked company , and the seat and assembly of ill and guilty comunication ; shewing that all comunication , and conference , and society of the wicked is faulty before God : 4. That hee is a most precise keeper of the sabbath , throughout the whole service of God ; in all preparation , behaviour , repaire and diligence , in all the exercise of hearing , and preaching , and love and affection to his house . 5. Therfor , that hee would not end his life and abridge , his dayes , and shorten his time with the time of sinners and disobeyers of parents and all governement . 6 And men of bloody thoughtes and murtherers . 7. & 8. that hee is free from all whoorish theft and rapine 9. & 10. And that his dayes , be not shortened with those that love rewardes and swear falsly , becaus hee walketh moste intirely : moste uprightly and neighbourly in all things : that hee may still remain in the righteous congregations , still praysing and blessing the Eternall uprightely . And this is his confidence that hee slip not , and his staff that hee fall not . And thus hee putteth himself to triall before God , for his curious observation , according to all termes and pointes of Eternity and happines propounded , Ps. 1. And this plainly for his integrity , his Thummim , and infallible confidēce in the Eternall , and walking in his ways , and his love of his house and service : hee prayeth for exemption . That hee may haue nothing to doe with any such , nor lead his life with the un-even dealers of the world , nor be counted in the number of them , that break the Law ; that hee may stand upon even ground in the way of happines , and be throughly blessed , Ps. 1.119 . a , blessing God in his church , Lev. 8. Deut. 33. For the walking with God , Gen. 6. Constructiō . Vpon Caph. for the sole of the foot , hee sheweth wher hee setteth his foot , and how , his whole conversation and behaviour , hee stands in faith and a sound conscience , and this hee maketh sound footing , and plain ground , and good company and good excercise , sure stāding . The first and last verses shew by the words , walking , slipping feet , and standing in uprightnes , according to the end of the last Psalme . Likewise Caph , a hand , for his innocency , Vau , for his company , loveing and hateing , signifyed by the preposition with : as it may as well be sayd with , as and. Genesis . Caph Dimjon , in grammer , signifyeth likenes and resemblance , so hee maketh himself wholely to differ from the wicked . Vau , which is . And , the conjuncttion copulative , with them Vau hibbur , grounds the society . As beged cephath , or the Ephod is joyned to the brest-plate or Thummim , Exod. 28.29.39 . For this precise life intendeth the priestly attendance , and therfor hee alludes to the ornament . PSALM . XXVII . FLesh and blood hath not revealed this unto thee . The Scriptures and word of God haue great use in this life and that to com , for teaching , improoving , and correcting , and for instructing in righteousnes , that the man of God may be , absolute , and perfect in all good workes , they so plainly testifying of God , by whose light wee do see light , Ps. 36. and obtein fayth , and strength and courage in the hart , as Ps. 10. & by continuall waiting , exaltation , as Ps. 40. And for this is the promiss , that godlynes is profitable unto all things , and hath everlasting life . God is not literall but spirituall , and the mystery and hidden secrets of godlynes very great , and the highe roomes of salvation are by revelation . The power and esticacy of the Scriptures standeth in spirituall interpretation and divineing of the word , and in revelations , and the extraction of the letter : the spirit and life of the word , which made and revealed all thinges . And thus overliveth Abrahams God , thus is David a man conformable to Gods own hart , and Christ is , the ingraven forme of his father , and speaketh all by authority . And this hee calleth his reviveing , and all his stay of life and salvation . So David beeing fo●saken of the world and in great distress ; by the Law , called the light of the Eternall , or his vrim , his stay of life , and salvation : hee is out of all fear , so hee may bee in he service of God. And prayeth for right direction , and maketh request for it , and to see the face of the Eternall , which is his Law , his plesantnes , as Psal. 16. to be allwayes conversant with him . That hee may be exalted over his enimyes , and hee may pra●se God , which hee is confident to see , er hee dye , by his valiant waiting on the Eternall , Lev. 8. Deut. 33. by his faith & confidence in his illumination in the promisses , by his seeking the face and presence of God , in performance according to the Law , and covenant , Ps. 24. Construction . The letter Caph , a hand , is heer taken to cover , as Exod. 33. which is the contrary to relevation by the Vrim , light and judgement , yet this beeing God his hand and his direction , it is taken proper , for his covering and protection , for hee feareth nothing , yf hee have that about him , which must onely be in time of priestly function ; in the moste holy place , and then hee is sure to be safe . The words , hideing , keeping close , the rock , &c. shew , the same . Zain is to hear or attend , as in the words , hearing seeking his face : begging for attendance , and his faithfull waiting , twise commanded , which doth now intimate the promiss . which will strengthen the hart , as it is the strength of the Law. Genesis . From the fortitude of Dages , which liveth by the quiescents in Iehova , and despiseth his enimyes the gutturals : ach ragnab , and resh , the brother of malice , or malicious ones and all their attempts against him . When naughty men , &c. The strength of his faith is devised heerupon , and the enimnity of the gutturals and resh is , becaus they receiue no dages and differ in vowels : so that they walk irregular , and by & crooked wayes ( say the Grammarians ) and not according to the rule of Dagesforte or graue . For this he prayeth , that hee may not satisfy their appetit ; or be eaten up and consumed by them , by their wrong voweling : when injury breatheth , &c. and fals witnesses or wrong p●onunciation ariseth . But that hee may allwayes be taught and led the right rule of Grammer , to be holpen , and save-ed from his ennemyes . A sound judgement or a good brestplate revealeth the face of God , which is all his will , as Vrim is worn on the brest-plate . This maketh a constant waiting and a sure fayth in the promisses . The Abce are the parents of Dages , though som letters fo●sake him : yet justice and regularity shall preserve him . For all , consider the doubling of words , the repeating of phrases , the intimation of the sense throughout . PSALM XXVIII . YEe err not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of them ; beeing ignorant of the works of God , and the deedes of his hands : and yee cannot bee edifyed therby , but be destroyed , defaceed & abase-ed , and deprived of that litle yee have , for want of knowledge , which is the rock of the Church , and the foundation therof ; even Christ with the Hoste of Israel , that feedes and succours them , susteynes them and supports them for ever . For without the foundation of knowledge , can bee no edification and building up of a faythfull and a perfect man , but men continue graceless even as the dumb beastes , Ps. 49. Now that hee hath obteined knowledge and understanding sufficient , and revelations from heaven : and the heavens be opened to him as Psal. 26.27 . And that hee is perfect in the operation of the word of God ; and knoweth well what the work of God meaneth : and is much delighted with the confidence , and protection hee hath gotten therby : and haveing had his particular request in Psal. 26 , for which hee blessed the Eternall : to wit , for his own safety and edification by his integrity in the word of God , and the just destruction of th● wicked that neither doe nor understand the same ; but follow their imaginations : hee thanketh God , and prayeth for the salvation and edification of his people , Ps. 147. and the whole church and inheritance of God , that they may likewise be well fed and susteyned with doctrine for ever , the rock , Exod. 17. Num. 20. 1. Cor. 10. Gods holy oracle ; that yelded waters abundantly , of wholsom doctrine to thirsty soules , that beleeved strongly the promiss to be performed and the Law to be given , after 430. yeers . Construction . Heer Caph , or Kiph , is for a rock , and that hee makes the Eternall , as Ps. 18. Also Caph , a hand , Cheth , to destroy and not to build : and both the letters together ; as Choach ; virtue , faculty , might , help or strength , hee cometh in to the holyest and smite-eth the Rock , with invocation and petition at the holy word , the oracle : in his Ephod , or shield of fayth , his rock , and hath his request , his great consolation which hee wisheth his people for ever . From wence is all salvation . Heer they knock for all that they want . Actu & potentia . workes for power , as effects so strength . Genesis . Between the Quiescents and the gutturall letters ther is great variance : such hee maketh between wicked and spirituall men . The one sort calles upon the Eternall , becaus the letters Ehevi , are in the name of the Eternall , the other abide not the same , Ps. 14. The vowels of the one , beeing long , the other , short and irregular . The signification of the gutturalls is , that they speak peacebley and freendly with their neighbours , when they yet doe malice them , and this is the way to swallow them , as Ps. 5.14 . what way the guiescents take , in Grammer , the Gutturalls take not the same . Dagesh forte belongs to the one , the other will no dagesh at all . and for this corruption , the Gutturalls perish & haue their reward , and by the power of the Eternall , the Quiescents are preserved . Peace and silence &c. note the quiescents . PSALM XXIX THe word of God is mighty in operation : it divideth between the marrow , and the bone . Out of the light of salvation , Ps. 27. and knowledge in the Law of God , riseth admirable glory and mighty confidence , for edification and sustenance in the spirit , as Ps. 28. That the glory and power therof may be moste famous , as Ps. 76. wher the very sound therof breaketh the weapons , and maketh an end of the warr : by the chideing of the moste high , in his dwelling place and sanctuary , Salem & Zion . For exceeding lustre and strength heerof , it is called a Kingdom , as Ps. 143.144.145 . and heer therfore , the effect therof is called a King , and God of glory , to raigne for ever , as Ps. 24.19 . And this is for the voice and spirit of the word it self , and possession of the Scriptures , called the waters and the great waters , and the flood , which hee occupyeth with such majesty , and such commande , with such aflonishment of Doctrine , such terror to the Princes , and tossing of the mountaines , the Cedars and Lebanon and all the lofty ones ; setting their hartes and all the woodes on fire , as in Cadesh , and to tremble , with great greeft , makeing all things naked , and revealing of all secrets , discovering of al hartes , and greeving the great deer of the forrest , for want of cover . And becaus hee so shineth in his temple , and so disquieteth his Enimyes , and giveth his people such blessing of strength & peace , beyond the power of all Gods ; that hee willeth all Gods and princes , and mighty and godly men , the children of the Gods , and Ministers , to ascribe all power and glory to him for ever : the glory of his name , with all humility , in his decent sanctuary . So for the might and majesty of Gods word in the Scriptures , called the waters , Ps. 68.150 . and his thundring out , of his miraculous Acts therin , that plague the great kings in the wildernes of Zin , in Cadesh , 38. yeers , by the firey flames of the Law , and becaus all that hee speaketh in his temple is glory , and becaus the Eternalls throne is upon the flood therof , wher hee sitteth ever king , and giveth strength , end peace to his people as Psal. 93.147 . hee wisheth all glory and strength to be as●cribed to the Eternall and his name , as Ps. 96. and great worship in his sanctuary . Construction . Caph , a hand , yeeld or give , ascribe or offer . Caph to bow , bend or worship , for adoration and oblation of the Priests and Ministers .

Therfor that they should yeeld him the glory of calling upon him , with all glory . Genesis . The quiescency is in Iehova , that mastereth the wat●rs , as Noah in the Ark. The double doctrine of Dagesh , in begad cepheth , to be woren in the Ephod , one kinde of Dagesh , on the one shoulder , and the other , on the other , by thes wordes , yeeld &c. glory and strength , Dagesh tiphereth , and dagesh chazak , they must adore with decency . The voice &c. is with might and with majesty . The glorious giving of the Law in mount Sina , called the waters , Exod. 19. Deut. 5. the strength and quiescency of his church , to make his name and the calling upon him , moste glorious . Iehova , or Hovah , Isai. 47. by calamities and comfort . Hee tells Iehevah 18 times over , and El twise , to shew the weight and glory of his name Jah , which make 20. Mark the repetition . PSALM . XXX . HEE that ascended is hee that descended first into the lower parts of the earth . In the eighteenth Psalme , David was baptised in trouble , and in the nineteenth , born by the word , and made the childe of God by reformation , and from thence strengthened and confirmed by his Name , for which hee giveth all glory to God. And in this Psalme hee is received to glory , the greatest glory of God beeing his resurrection . Before the loss of the Ark , David was but over shooes and wetshod in affliction , yet hee made his recovery great , and his deliverance miraculous ; but now , hee is up to the neeck , yea over head and eares in hevynes , when hee hath lost his charge , his strength and ornament and salvation . So that hee meaneth heer an infinit magnifying of God for his resurrection out of such a sorrow , beeing as a poor ship wract man of all his confidence . For ther is no descent so low as into a mans enimyes hands , and no captivity so miserable , or any misery so greevous as the whole Churches , to a Defendour , as is seen by Moses . And haveing lost a sure estate , and feeling the horror of Gods wrath and destruction , and fallen in this terrible pit of distresses and affliction , as seeing no way but death before him ; and considering well , that there would com no profit by the death of a poor and wreched sinner , but rather by his conversion : and considering that God is not for ever angry , as Ps. 77. and that there is Ioy and life to bee in Gods favour and likeing , Ps. 34. hee turneth wholely to God for help , and cryeth out of this great deep , for redemption and forgivenes , as Ps. 130. and obteineth to bee remitted , and salved , raised again and quickned , that hee may sing and dance for joy ; and that his own Glory may for ever prais him , for this shifting of him out of such miserable and sinfull corruption , into such a glorious liberty again . That hee ought for ever to worship him , and Say , Death , wher is thy sting . and hell wher is thy victory ? And for this hee so mightily extolleth God. And as all the starrs in heaven differ in glory : so the greatest glory in mans profession and protestation of religion , is his resurrection from base corruption . And therfor , that ther is no way in heaven or earth , to extoll it , or thank him worthyly . And this much for his dedication . 2. Sam. 5.6 . Construction .

From whence , S. Mathew hath the children of the Kingdom , which should be the children of light : shall becom utterly ignorant , by term , utter Darknes and sorrow . Which is nothing but the state of Ignorance , Math : 8. When God hideth his face and his glory shineth not , and the Scriptures are not cleer . For this hee prayeth for illumination , and his glory , to worship a right , which is the brightnes of lerning , to declare the truth . His heavynes and his reviveing , is from his God eternall , Iehovah his virtuous remedy of Compassion , marck the office of Lamed for rarity , by repeating the words , Chaunt unto the Eternall . That Glory may chaunt thee out &c. For the lerned priestes , Gods holy ones and gracious ministers . Is. 42. the grace of Doctrine , beeing a lively and a lightsom thing , as ignorance is wrathfull and horrible . Genesis . Dagesh tephereth , Dagesh of glory , in beged cepet and Raphe . As in thes wordes : that Glory may chaunt thee &c. And in thes words , thou didst heale , Tirpaeni . Which Dagesh , is used for sweetnes of sound in the oration , and this Dagesh is only , in six letters dagesht , and six undagesht , according to the six tribes on either shoulder of the Ephod , wherin the priest was to Minister . PSALM XXXI . HAveing seen the goodnes of the Eternal wich hee trusted verily to see ; as Ps. 27. To wit , his wonderfull kindenes , that hee was at liberty among his Enimyes , and that in a strange and strict citty ( Gath ) and sheweth the benefit therof , and teacheth it , as in Psalm 34. A B C. by his valiant waiting , who giveth thanks for his deliverance , for fearing the Eternall : and that hee was not cutt off from the sight of God : but had his request , to inioye his service , Now in great perplexity by his fals accusers , and beeing mightily broken through iniquity , for their privy plotting for his life ; by all manner of false reportes and violence ; hee prayeth for his own deliverance , by this Argument , first by the righteousnes of the Eternall , and for his Name , righteousnes sake , which should lead , and guide him , aright to salvation . Secondly , to the Eternall , his strength , his fort and Garison , becaus hee commended and committed his life into his handes , with his whole trust and rely upon him . And thirdly , that the Eternall was a God of truth , and that hee could not abide vain falshood , but did put his trust only in the Eternall . And against his Enimyes thus : that all arrogant , fals , lofty , proud and spitefull speakers against the Iust may haue an everlasting silence below , and be dumb in the ground . And seeing thes are the just rewards of the Eternall : hee comforteth them that wait on him , in hope that hee shall never be ashamed therof . shewing in this Psalm , what is his whole rely and confidence , what is his Rock and Garison , and fayth and beleeff , and the first Article of his Creed : even to beleeve in the truthe , the Word , Ps. 120 , 45. the God and power therof . And to trust therin for Salvation , and to committ him self wholy therto : to bee redeemed by the knowledge of the Law , and confidently trusting to work out his salvation , by the obseruing therof . And this is that which maketh him fayth full and patient , and long suffering , and constant , and not faint in distersses , and miseryes , but to be of good cheer , and of good comfort , becaus God will strengthen their hartes with his Goodnes .

Math. 16. This is the spirituall rock that refreshed the whole campe , which rock was Christ 1 Cor. 10. &c. The brest plate of righteousnes that imboldned him , Ephes. 1. as is seen by the doubling of thes wordes : relying , trusting and committing of him self in all kinde of distresses . This is formed from , Exod. 33. wher it is called Gods presence , favour , goodnes , and glory , and rock , and safety by using the same termes as after a perfet modell . also for Lo of Laah , to be dissolved , and deficient , as hee was . Genesis . The term , hiemanti in grammer , to beleeve .

HAveing felt the hevy hand of God upon him , and the parching of his wrath , by his trobles fo● all his trespass , sinn , deceipt and iniquity , which letted his Prayer , and the happines of his forgivenes , Ps. 65. After his confession and prayer to him : hee counselleth the Godly to pray in time , and conveniently , left , in time of inundation of trobles ( called waters ) Ps. 120. they finde impediment and harder entertainment . And for this caus hee prayeth to his Defence , the Eternall for preservation from Distress , and to bee regarded by the Eternall , his righteousnes , for direction and righteousnes . Who answereth : yf they bee not Asses , and will understand , his Eye shall tend him and teach him his way . And wher sorrows belong to the wicked : his loveing kindenes shall inviron him about . If you haue ten thousand Instructors , yet you haue but one father , and who can forgiue sinns but God only ? even the Allsufficient father of instruction . The Law that bindeth and looseth , saveth and condemneth ? The ever wakeing Eye of the Law shall tend them , and advise them and teach them & instruct them . So they bee not like Asses , and dull headed , and except they will not lend their eares to understanding : that for acknowledgeing their sinns , they may be forgiven , remitted and saved . And thus by fayth are the righteous saved and blessed ; from the Mercy seat , Exod. 25 , 26 , 27. In judgement remember Mercy : wher Iudgement is expressed by the hevynes of Gods hand , as love covereth a multitude of sinns . S. Pauls rule . So at the Mercy seat , Attonement and reconciliation was to be made for all . As Lev. 16. after confession . The Mystery , whose sinns are covered and condemnations wipeed out , from kipporeth , which is to cover , or a Covering , by all allusion . As the mercy seat is over the Ark , and Mercy rejoyceth over Iudgement , and loveing kindenes shall be round about a faythfull man , and they that cry for Mercy heer , shall be rescued and let escape damnation , as the goat &c. Lev. 16. From hence was Moses admonished Num. 7. Construction . Lamed , lerned . Lerning is still a guard to a wise man , to keep him from sinn . And what a great felcity is it , to be found faultless or cleered by the word of God ? to beware of trespass and to see the way to Grace . I will wise &c. Beth is a house , by his hideing and preserving ; or protection , for favour and kindenes , the walles of Salvation , the good Edification that is dayly about the Iust. So the tractable are edifyed , and the submissive and the gentle , well indued : but the froward hamperd , & are kirbed , Psal. 18. As the letters Lamed & beth are first over the Psalme , so are they the last , signifying the hart : Wher all crosses and comfort meet , wher sinn harboureth , wher grace entreth , faith & repentance worketh , and amendment groweth confession and all plainenes issueth , and remission commeth , and all salvation and joy , and happines and triumph followeth . Genesis . The Retoricall Accent , Metheg , a bridle , is used , compared to the Law , to check the froward and to pardon the penitent , the happy estate of remission to the refreiners , the great grace of continence , as Metheg is to the word , for sweetnes : and especially for distance : and Gaja for roaring and crying , as the prince of Accents . Is. 55. Ps. 22. All language is doltish and senseles without the Melody of time , and quantity in syllabes and pointes , and stops in Oration : according to all degrees of Declination , in the sentence . Ther is no trespass but against righteousnes , the virtue of the Eternall : and ther is no forgevines but from the God therof , nor happynes , nor joy but to trust in him , and indevour it . PSALME XXXIII . NOw hee willeth all the just to triumph royally , for the certainty and effect of Gods word , which hee fully-ly describe-eth , & the happines of the Nation that are the Eternalls inheritance . And for that in all the Scriptures , called the heavens , and his dwelling seat ( from whence hee hath his prospect ) which are formed to the hartes of all men , no salvation is found to haue been , by great Armys of Kings , or strength of men and horses , as Psal. 147. but by the vigilancey and care of the Eternall , in his Law ( called his Eye ) to deliver and releeve them that fear him : and because their Soul waiteth upon the Eternall , whom they make their sole defence ; and delight and trust in him : hee craveeth the like mercy upon the whole Church , as their hope is in him . Now seeing the counsell of Gods word , passeth the counsell and all conceipt of the heathen , for creating , and reforming of mankinde , and bringing them to knowledge : that they may bee strong in fayth , and of a sound hope unto salvation , and that instruction is a new Creation : hee willeth a sabath of praise and sanctification to bee solemnized , as Psal. 92. by the just , for the godlynes of them and praise of his maker . For salvation is not by strength but by fayth , as appeereth in the Lordes battailes , by patience , the Armour of the saintes . Gods holy Oracle and mercy seat considereth all men . From hence was Moses admonished , Num. 7. by the brest plate of Iudgement , the ingraven form of Godhead and wisedom , Exod. 28.39 . Construction . Lamed , leerning , shewing the instruction promissed , Ps. 32. The preservation of the Saintes and beleevers . Levit. 8. shewing judgement , justice , mercey and truthe to be the definition of the word of God , Ioh. 1. Math. 23. that yee may know what it is , and this is a lerning . This Psalme belongeth to the former , by repeating the wordes therof , and the mystery , in the prospect of the Eternal , doubled for the preest , and deeps in treasures , and counsell , and cogitation , for the brest plate of judgement imbrodered . The Efficacy and power of the word of God , the eternity of the light , the advisement , & discretion therof , the brest plate , and the vanity of humane lerning . What reverence it asketh , what fear of offending , how precious the observing , and how painfull the offending is . Fear yee the Eternall , &c. Ghimel , hee rewardeth according to all mens workes , how sure it cometh , how beneficiall to the elect , the providence to thē that fear God , for the best understanding . Ther is no safety by multitude fortitude , nor faculty , but all grace and pardon and forgivenes , help and protection , is by fayth and patience . The fear of God is the observing of the commandements , which is his word , and the makeing conscience of transgression therof : seeing all that is don is for fear or love , and this is finall and a principall lerning , as the End of the commandement is love , &c. 1. Tim. 1. The Scriptures are an Eternall Oracle of counsell and advise , they have both Vrim & Thummim , in them , light of knowledge , and perfection of life . The tree of knowledge and of cariage that is taught of God , Gen. 3. Io. 6. 1. Thess. 5. and this is that which the preest is to bear upon his hart , and to be indued with all : to shew that the kingdom of God standeth in suffering , and not in pomp . Genesis . Metheg , a bridle , so is the word of God a rule to hold us in : and direct us , it is full of regularity , right and strait and true , as the world it self in his cours , the honour of upright mē . For Metheg Jasher or Munnah , Metheg turned to Munnah , to serve Zakeph caton , the grammaticall Acent . Metheg gaja , the accutest and loudest musick Accent . Other propertyes of the rule bee expressed by the words , counsel , Actions , by faith and patience , by the waiting and trustinge , by refreining & absteining from ill , & restraining the minde . And this is a moderation above all kingdom , or worldly dominion of hors , or man whatsoever , and governeth all things . PSALM . XXXIV . FOr Gods mercyes upon him & giving him that strength of beleeff , hee resolveth to praise him and bless him allwayes , and with all his might , and allureeth a whole congregation to the sanctifying of him , for the releeff of his distressed case , by his great goodnes and mercyes : in guarding him by the spirit of his word . Therfor hee will now let them know the use and benefit of Gods service , and fear : that is , that it will make men like giants , for countenance and continuāce , and state of Eternity , Psal. 112. And for stature like goodly Cedars : and as it is the way to long life , by description : so what this service and fear is , by definition , Psal. 92. and how it is accomplished : to speak plainly and truely , & without any hypocrisy or dissimulation , to doe good , and not evill , following the way of peace . And in this way the Lord will look upon them and hear them allwayes , and deliver them out of all evills . Bee the woes of the just never so many , yet hee will save him whole from falling into temptation , when the wicked by som ill shall be utterly desolate wasted and slaine . And this is expressed farther by a mystery between P , and P , in the A , B , C , rew , shewing that the afflictions of the church , shall have joyes sevenfold after captivity , of 70. at 490 yeers end , as in two Reshes , and Tsade , in the Vers Resh , wher hee sheweth eternall comfort to the just by Gods favours , and the utter condemnation of the wicked by Gods angry lookes upon thē out of his word . And this behaviour , David accounteth to availe much to the strengthening of his faith : to waite for all promiss of this life , and that to com . And thus much for the upright childe of the Church , begotten by much misery and affliction , and brought foorth by a painfull travaile , Ps. 102. as the childe of the holy Ghost and sonn of God by righteousnes . This summ of 490 , is made up , by multiplying Zain by gnain , seventy by seven : the one beeing made principall , by exemption of Vau , and the other finall , by doubling of Pe , Ps. 25. in the first letters of the three first wordes in the vers Resh , is the whole 490. expressed also as before , and likewise you may see the same in the first letters of the two first words in the vers Zain , and thes both expounded in the vers Gnain , and Tsade . Construction . Lamed , lerning . The lerning is heer the fear of the Lord , defineed for a passing wisdom to resist the Divill , and escape temptation . It teacheth Redemption & deliverance & saveing of the just at last , & therfor the letter Vau , a hook or crook , is left out of the Abce for the wicked ; which shall no longer continue or hold the just . And also conscience of sinne and bashfulnesse of evill , bridleth and with-holdeth the Iust. So this defection of Vau standeth vpon holding and loosing . The Lions shall bee defectiue and faile for all their clawes , but they that seeke the Eternall shall not , &c. These kindes of hooks ther bee : seeking , clawing , visiting , calling , compassing , crying , relyeing . The wickeds terme Rashang shall be maimed , and his bones broken & bee all dismembred , and be slaine by Ragnah , the terme evill , taken from it , the first and last letters of his name , his own property , which is dooing of ill , and thus hee commeth to desolation . Daleth a dore . Keep thy tong , &c. watch thy mouth , be porter at the doore of thy lips , as Ps. 141. Lamed and Daleth , maketh Ledh , which is to beget , as the childrē of God are they that feare him , serve him , seek him and rely on him . And to such is his lesson , & to such is life , and to such shall bee no desolatiō , and the matter is plain by itteration of the wordes . Genesis . The Genesis of this Psalme is much confirmed by the Title . Tagnam is taste or behaviour , and Tagnam is the Grammaticall Accent , the sense is the best taste of both , the changeing is the declineing of both . The Grammaticall Accent turned into Azla or Geresh , & the Rhetoricall into Qadmah , & is signified by thes words Iegareshehow Vajelek , and so riseth the Regiment and variation of Accents , from Metheg . A life without godlynes is no life , no more is any speech sensible without Accents or Pointes . The fear of God is sweetnes of life , & the acutenes of understanding is a good distinction , against Davids conterfet distraction . See how hee thinketh of all the fiue Senses , and beginneth at the Vers He , for seeing and smelling , and in Zain , for hearing , and Hheth , for touching and in Tet , for tasting , with moste effectuall intimation . PSALM XXXV . BEcaus of the privy trap of fals and cruell witnesses to take away his life , and deceitfull and Collusion talk , and derision of Saul his pursuer and mighty Enimy : and the greatnes , yea the kingdom of compassion in him , toward Saul and his followers ; and their sport at his misery : and their underhand plotting for his life , and secret tearing and backbiteing of him ; and their insulting for advantage over him , rewarding evill for good : as Ps. 109. He prayeth for their suddain and inevitable destruction , by the Iustice of the Caus. That the Eternall will stand before them , and stop them with his weapons , that they may bee all in darknes , and slippery placees , with a cruell winde behinde them , to make them fall and vanish , as Ps. 141. That is , that for a Iudgement , their own causles fury and malice , with their ignorance and unconstancey likewise , may Iustly , bring unawares their own destruction : that they may not laugh at him , nor haue their willes , but bee eternally ashameed . And that hee and all just ones may have caus to rejoyce ; to tell and commend the Iustice of the Eternall for ever . That without ever a broken bone , hee may soundly confess the infinitnes of his salvation , by him , and rejoyce for euer in him ; that hee may be delivered from all evill , which is from the will and desire of his Enimyes . And that God would bee awake at his judgement , and at his quarell , and shew him salvation out of his word : and assure him , that hee may proclaim it . That drowzines of minde , and lazynes and care of the world , take not away his Zeal , and bereave him of understanding ; and destroy him . Construction . Lamed , for lerning or instruction . And heer upon hee groundeth a stratagem or doctrine of warr : by mention of the instruments , help and incouragement , from God , as Ps. 18.144 . in the beginning : and discouragement and shame to his Enimyes that bee wrongers of him . Their instruction is snares & intanglement , false witnesses , ill for good , rejoyceing at harme , detraction , mocking , grinning and skorning , laughing and wincking , deceiveing , gaping and mowing with the mouth , to vex him out of his life . Hee maketh none like God for help : therfor he doubleth his first request , arise and awak to my judgement , &c. and also the wordes for his Enimyes confusion , as a consequence of their own lerning , for their not beeing right in Gods sight . He paragogique . They are gathered together . Heah , an Interjection of skorning , doubled oft , and intimated in all the way of the wicked : also He , for seeing and beholding .

Lah , Lamed , and He , from Lahah , utterly to fayle , as the mischevous and deceitfull , Gen. 47. Prov. 26. that make a sport of vexation . Genesis . The Gutturall letters , and Resh , are heer the devouring wicked ones , that seek , this way to swallow the just , by their irregularity and crooked wayes : and to dimm their glory . They bee for thes wordes : as for my freend , or for my brother , &c. again for thes wordes : ah sir , our ey hath seen it , or wee haue seen it , &c. in the interjection , and the two first letters of the next wordes following : and again , for thes wordes : ho , wee haue our desire , wee haue swallowed him , for the gutturalls only . PSALM . XXXVI . BEcaus of the ungodlynes which hee seeth in the wicked , that neither fear God , nor will walk in his way , setting light by it , as his dayly trespass sheweth , but is caryed away with pride , and led astray by a wicked hand , unto destruction , Prov. 16. considering the greatnes of the kindenes and faythfullness of the Eternall , the highth and depth of his justice and judgement , as Ps. 119. l , and the pretiousnes of his way , when it saveeth all men : his word beeing their protection and shadow called his wings , the fat and liquor of his hous , their refreshing , his light , their guide & instruction : as Psal. 29.110 . hee prayeth that hee will bestow his kindenes and righteousnes upon them that know him , and men of upright mindes , that hee may not err , and fall after the same manner . And this from the Paradise and church of God , Gen. 2. for the rivers of Doctrine , flowing hence . Ther is a well of life in the Law , and a great depth of judgement in the word of God , and the righteousnes therof , the light to walke by : the wicked are proud and skorn it , and are condemned for their extreame trespas against it . and therfore , hee prayeth for grace out of it , that pride of minde lead him not into temptation , nor wicked counsell draw him to fall into the damnation of it , like them that never rise again , which is an utter defection , for want of grac● & the fear of God , Ps. 34. Construction , Lamed , lerning . The doctrine heer , is grace , and reprobation : or approbation and rejection , the one word answering to the other by the like repetition , ech thrise , to import it . Which are the contrary studyes of the Godly and the wicked . The one calleth for Gods favour , or his kindenes , which is life ; & ther is a fountain of it , that will never be drawen dry , and an everlasting light , yf it shine upon us : the other studyeth nothing but greeff and molestation , so kindenes and greeff be the wordes repeated . And hee maketh nothing of sinn . The word Gnenau , his eyes , commeth twise , in a hard construction , to shew it . The letter Vau , for a hook or crook , is for the instrument of drawing of the same kindenes , by a metaphor , for lerning , which is a kinde of drawing , as wee draw knowledge out of the word . And this instrument Christ used , that the woman of Samaria perceived not . Likewise pride , and the powerfull hand of the wicked draweth to damnation , as pride goeth before the fall , Prov. 16. the two letters together , Lo , doe signify property , or habit , to wit , his , or belonging to him . In the first wordes the wickeds habit is shewen , by which hee is condemned : in the next , Gods property , by which all are saved that love it . And this for a standing or falling perpetuall . Genesis . He beginneth with the wickeds trespass , and endeth with his utter fall and defection : which sheweth that of him and of his end , hee speaketh . The letters Aven , for the word greeff , bee defective letters , also Lamed , which is intended by a repetition & a construction , Chadal , to Leav off , and Maas , to refuse , betoken the defectives also , and utter falling . PSALM XXXVII . HEe exhorteth to that heavenly kingdom of Christ , that is , fayth & patience in all distress . For allurements therto , hee propoundeth to the just : prosperity , cleernes of judgement , everlasting success , & continuance upon earth , harts desire , peace after affliction , satiety in time of dearth , certainty and blessing in proceeding , unguiltynes in judgement , and all help , salvation and deliverance , from the Eternall . And willeth them not bee troubled , at the wicked course and prosperity of naughtie men , as Psal. 79.73.86 . seeing the end of them , & their posterity , is suddain ; whē they once persecute the Iust : like growing grasse , that is in the flower , cut to wither , and not suffered to seed , Ps. 92.109 . and like a brave Imp , that is soon broke-en off , or dyeth . So vanisheth , and consumeeth all their bravery , honour and advancement , like smoke in the ayer , that love not God. The note of the Iust man is compassion , bountyfullnes , liberality , and consolation in the Eternall ; wise comunication , and dayly meditation on the Law of God , that hee fall not . The note of the wicked : hee ever worketh and deviseth , by all meanes against the just , hee hath not pitty , and will borrow & not pay again , hee will not bestow but rob . Now because in this Psalme , the just mans part is true meaning , waiting for the Eternall , trusting and delighting in him ; that is the observing of his Law , shunning evill and dooing of good , the beginning of wisdom and understanding : the form of the Psalme , is an A , B , Cc like instruction , in the Hebrew . That ther bee no imprudencey left to God , & his spirit : heer is exposition of every letter in the Rew. Therfor mark the interruption , mark the Iteration , the acceptation and imbraceing of som , and reprobation and exprobation of other letters of the rew , and the generall allusion to the termes of them , as Nun yong , &c. that yf they would wait 430 yeers Quoqh , Shin , & Lamed , in Quoph ; they should inherit the land Canaan , mark the letters Tsar , Tsade , & Resh for Tsadiq , and Rashang , the righteous and the wicked . Therfor mark the replenishing of the mouth and minde of the righteous in Tsade , and the Arring , and currishnes of the wicked , by this Iteration , of all these Arres and Gnains in his Raithi , or the letter Arr or Resh , Persius Sat : 1. wher is taught 400. also . And leaving out Gnain in the rew &c. to shew the cutting off of the wicked , beeing the last letter of the term Rashang , for his posterity : and the blessing of the righteous , with peace and prosperity , Ps. 128. and long life , Psal. 34. and posterity in Shalom , the holding out of the Iust , 930 , the yeers of Adam , as Ps. 144. in Tsel , a shadow . Tom va jasher : in Shin , for the space from the promiss to the Temple of Salomon , & likewise the same number from the Temple to Christ , all perfection and uprightnes , even twise 930. as in Quoph also . And thus in the Chronicle from the promiss to Christ , the Prince of Peace : with many a gooly stage of salvation , & refreshing of fayth , Psal. 25. Out of his experience of the Law , & his fayth , hee prayeth the Church to be patient and wait a while , And they shall haue peace enough and the wicked shall be cutt off , and the inheritance shall be theirs : shewing that the birth of righteous men hath a painfull travaile , but a comfortable and a joyfull deliverance at last , as Ps. 34. Construction . Lamed , lerning . The doctrine heer is the way of God , Psal. 1. the truthe and life , Io. 14. the Law and Gospell of Christ , the end wherof is salvation , by righteousnes and judgement . The meanes is patience , and the Enimy , anger . For all helps are lost , by not indureing , and impatience , and headynes , and rashnes and hasty malice : which is the speedy cutting off of the wicked . For by this , their attempts turn all against themselves , but God helpes the Godly , because they beleeve & wait for his promiss . By their patience , they are made perfect , and by perfection are they prolonged to Eternity . For all his speech and thoughts are of the wisdom and judgement of the Law of God , and all his steps according to that brest plate , the power of God , and induement of his sainctes , that his carriage failes not . The letter Zain , for conception and apprehension is the same . The repetition of these wordes shall proov it . Way , Iudgement , help , salvation , wait and rely , rescue &c. right and perfection . Lamed and Zain , together , is Laz , to decline from this true way , which is abomination to the Lord , and therfor are such justly and speedily cutt off . Vau , abounding in the last verse out of his place sheweth , that God , is saveing , redeeming , and rescueing and delivering , is a kinde of uncrooking and unheaching of the just out of the wickeds handes . Genesis . Hee worketh upon the Gutturall letters , and that you shall observe , when you com to every one of them in the Abce , for their irregularity in Grammer , touching Dagesh , and Sheva . In Aleph , hee adviseth against Anger , and Ielousy : which is a devouter and a consumeing fire in a man , Psal. 124. which hee remedieth with patience . In He , he adviseth the same , and hath all the Guttural letters and Resh , doubled in that verse , to shew the same . Presumption and wrong from the wicked and their success , doth eat the just , for the just be perfect and regular , and the wicked are irregular and outlawes . In Cheth , they shew their quarell : they will have Cateph Pathach , rapine , and destroy the right rule : and therfor they are rapt away and destroyed . In Gnain , is manifest defection , by the leaving of that letter quite out of the rew : as the rest are enimyes and defectives to the rule . In Resh , mark how Resh is sorted with all the gutturalls : and how often it is doubled with them , their great glory and suddain dificiencey . PSALM XXXVIII . BEeing once over-reached and tripped by Nathan the Prophet , concerning his sinn , that hee had not a word to say ; hee was fain to be silent at all the railing , and subtile practises of Absolom his Enimy , and his complices , Shemei , Achitophel , and others , lest they should upbraid him and laugh at him : and his body beeing wholely distempered with the wrath of God for the same , and his greeff of minde therfor so great , beeing forsake-en of all ; that by unexpressible sighes , hee is force-ed to signify , his requests and desire , to God that knoweth all , that hee would vouchsafe to answer and still them : yet because his cause is good against his Enimyes , bee they never so-many : hee prayeth , that hee will not correct him , nor be from him , but be his salvation , and make haste to help him . Hee sheweth his sore suffering for sinn , Psal. 134. through his faith and waiting for Gods salvation , praying that God will not consume him with correction , nor in his anger quite forsake him , but with all speed , help him and save him , and answer him , and releev him in his sorrow , for confessing his sinnes . Sorrow and affliction beget children unto God , and with much travail and long waiting and great correction are they born , and with much adoe are the righteous delivered from the body and death of Sinn , and folly and wrath of God , and corruption of the flesh and bondes and thralldom of Satan , and all adversity : to be brought to the glorious liberty of the sonnes of God , and to bee raised again in the Spirit , and to bee made alive again by righteousnes and forgivenes of Sinn . And this for the low estate of suffering , the very death and passion of a just man. Like that of Iob and Ierimiah , that thought no sicknes so sore as theirs . So hee hath no soundnes left in all his body , that hath lost a bone , and is halting , and alone , and in need of help , as Adam , Gen. 2. Construction . Lamed , doctrine . His declination by sinn , his hard discipline . Hee maketh himself a scholer under the rod , & is sorely corrected for missing his rules , the Law of God , that it sticketh both on his stomack & on his back : hoe is bowed , weake & bruseed , hee is sad , hee is sore , hee is greeved , his hart cryes and is removed , and hee is sensles with sorrow , as yf hee were aware of nothing : for all parts pay for it , the rage of error is such . And heer hee thinketh upon Adam , that ther was no help left meet for man , Gen. 2. among men : for freends help not , but are corrupt and dec●itfull to intangle , and Enimyes hurt , and are against him . So hee maketh God his maister and his helper , and recoverer & waiting , Ps. 94. for that the offence is only against him , and hee only is sensible of his sorrow & of his desire . Thusmuch you shall perceiue by mention of all the wordes in that text of Adams wound , and curious repetition of them . For the Law woundes all men . Gen. 2. Cheth , the broken and destroyed state of sinfull man. The two letters , together , make Lach , green , and fresh , and lively : his estate is all contrary , and therfor , so hee argueth upon the contrary . Genesis . The G●ammaticall part is deficiencey . When hee seeth how imperfet a scholer in the Law , hee is , discernes how foolish and pervers his wayes are : hee calleth himself such and Heteroclite as this , for all kinde of defectivenes . Ther is no whole thing or health &c. Ther is no ease or peace or perfection &c. And this of Verbs Perfet and Imperfet , the Imperfet are quiescents or defectives : the one , is of letters present and silent , which neither heare nor speake : the other , of letters abolished for ill neighbourhood . As freendes are not to be u●ed or trusted to : so Enimyes are not to bee conferred with . Nun , is diversly defective in the Psalme , and for that , the number of verses agreeth with the Abce number of letters , and is likewise consonant to Adams defect , by his stroke with that sinfull sleep , Gen. 2. This is Nah , nireeh , by the words : in the beginning , his arrows light , and his hand lyeth , &c. All his desire and his groning . &c. PSALM . XXXIX . BY silence in the last Psalme , some good things beeing forborn becaus of the wicked : which now occasioneth Ieduthun as followeth ; to inquire how long hee can indure alive , considering his correction , frailty , vanity and shortnes of the age of man , of no abideing , as Psal. 119. g , k , and beeing , but as a strangeer or guest in the earth , because hee waiteth for the Lord , and is not troubled with worldly affaires : hee would bee delivered from his trespasses , and temptation of Gods hand , and haue his correction somwhat abated before hee dyeth . That hee be not a reproch to the vile and foolish , seeing that correction for iniquity , freats and consumeth like a moth . Which as hee seeth , will otherwise shorten the shortnes of his time : and this with pittyfull cry and request unto the Eternall . Man that is born of a woman hath but a short time to live , and his dayes are full of sorrow . In the former Psalme ther is great waiting of David , for the glorious liberty of the sonnes of God , out of the bondage of corruption , by indureing so great adversity for a godly life : Heer hee considereth the vanity of the creature , and the small moment of the life of man , and the great and vain stirr that man makeeth in the world , that hee can not be silent at . But that his waiting is for nothing , but for forgivenes of his trespasses , and the abatement of his troubles , and some refreshing ere hee dyeth . And this is all his waiting & covet & desire , that hee suffer not reproch by the vile & wicked people of the world , or be ashamed for the hope that hee is subject to . And this for an other article of his fayth which hee hath gotten by the Law. Vpon the story of Cain and Abel , Gen. 4. two bretheren , vanity and vexation Ecclesiastes . One slayeth the other , as worldly sorrow causeth death . Construction . Lamed , doctrine , or Limmed , to teach . The doctrine beginneth , wher the first word , I sayd , or I thought , is used , in the last Psalme , and that concerning his halting and imperfection , and that in speech . Hee would faine preach , it seemes , but then woe be to him , for the cavilling of the wicked . yet preach hee will , it seemes , for his conscience can not hold to be silent , hee will keep his wayes , and keep his mouth , and rule his tongue . This is lerning and an observation . God sets the wicked upon him , and this is a sharp rod of correction : hee desireth his end , or ease and forgivenes ; that hee be not made a fool for his waiting , which is only on God. Spare him , take off the rod , and his sore hand upon him , and hearken to his begging and heare his crying : and this according to the case of a scholer . And therfor is Adonah , so especial-ly and so often used , in this Psalme and the other , for Lord or Maister : Teth , for the extending of Gods hand upon him , and so much provoking him . Both the letters together make Lat , to ly hid , or to hide . Against this , hee prayeth to be shewed the hidden knowledge of his end . Genesis . The grammaticall instruction or creation is Nah nistar , the hiddē quiescent & that is seen by the doubling of that form , in Edhegnah , & Jedang ; & Elek , &c. One quiescencey is silence , an other , death , and the end of his dayes : another , vanity , & vanishing , when all is don , and at an end : and another , the end of his punishement . With double mention of Ish , also , Man , wounded and cureed , Gen. 4. PSALM XL. AFter long study in the Law of God , called the waiting on the Eternall , Ps. 130. beeing satisfyed and delivered from ignorance , & doubtfull hesitation , called a mirey dungeon : and haveing obteyned a sound beleeff , called sure footing upon a Rock , that made him change his note by a praise to God ; that brought many to the like confidence in the Eternall , that saw it : now shewing the infinit miracles that God hath don for the Church , and their happines for trusting in him : and seeing that no sacrifice nor offering can gratify , content or satisfy for the same , as Ps. 50. but hearing and obeying the word : and findeing his own aptnes , promptnes and inclination that way : hee starteth up , & uttereth his profession and fayth ( the preaching of the same ) which because it is the whole will of God , Ps. 1.137 . & hee hath pleasure in it , and for mercy bestowed upon othersheerin : hee prayeth for mercy , as Ps. 119. L. And speedy deliverance , from the Eternall , Psal. 61. out of his innumerable and pittifull evills for iniquity , by his Enimyes that seek his life . That they may bee stund with their shame for ther mocking ; and they that seek the Eternall and love his salvation , may rejoyce in him and magnify him for ever . Construction . Mem , signifieth waters , of which hee maketh divers kindes , according to the propertyes therof , as hee beginneth in the first word doubled , Qavah , to wait or hope , from the nature of a standing pool , called from thence Miqve , and so for , the sea Gen. 1. continual-ly waiting for resort . So is Tiqveh , hope also , and for the continuall frequenting of the Scriptures and word of God , from Quavithi , in the other Psalme . The Scriptures are called waters : in my belly is the Law for the vessel &c. The great congregation twise uttered , for the Church and assembly . I preach &c. for I sprinkle , the partes and propertyes of the Law and of the will of God. And of these waters ; the waightyest things , are Iustice and fidelity , truth and mercy , and the great and wonderfull works of God , which hee declareth Actor . 2. Another kinde of waters are woes , and crosses and iniquityes in the world , that overcom the harts of men , and take away their sight , when they abound , Ps. 32. like a swefen or soumn . An other kinde of waters are Enemyes , as Ps. 18. & 70.32 . Ierm . 49. That study to make an end of him and to hurt him , and flout him . These waters hee would have astonished , and run back for shame and their current stopped : that the right students my rejoyce for deliverance . All which is notable by itteration . Genesis . A kinde of quiescencey is heer in his hope , his fayth , his rock , the Eternall , for constancey : as a sound ground-work of preaching . His ripenes in the Scriptures and perfect knowledge and understanding of them , Ps. 73. This is his rest that shall comfort , like Noah &c. Gen. 7.2 . Pet. 2. hee is pleased also in edification and reparation . to tell Gods miracles and his mercyes . The will of God is his delight . This is his rest and rely in all troubles , adversityes , afflictions and reproch concerning all his works and sorrow of hands , to comfort him , Gen. 7. that God may be pleased in him , Math. 3. And thus by the revolution of the words of the text . PSALM XLI . COnsidering the goodnes of the Eternal to them that bee good to the poor , and their happines that bee releevers and instructers of them , as Psal. 112. and the hardnes , ill will , and mercylessnes of his Enimyes , and confederat freendes towards him , when hee was ill and in misery : hee prayeth the Eternall himself , to ●ake pitty upon his sinfull soul and heal it , which had sinned against him ; and to raise him again , that hee may also recompense them . Knowing heerby the love of God towards him , when his Enimyes have not their wilis against him ; but hee keeps his integrity and the presence of the Eternall , to wit , his divine meditation ( thanked be God ) for ever . The teaching of the poor the Law , is the saveing from sinn , and David beeing sick with sinn ; now for his doctrine out of the Law , p●ayeth for forgivenes and remission of his sinnes , and to bee healed and to bee revive-ed from sorrow , and raised out of troubles . His Enimyes beeing against his resurrection , pray that still som divillish distress may keep him down and torment him , that hee never rise again , and never bee cheered more . But because nothing can quell his Enimyes more , then Gods favour in mainteyning his integrity out of the Law , and keeping him still in the study therof : and nothing cheere him so much , as a sound beleef out of the word : Ps. 21. and nothing pay his Enimyes so sore , as his recovery : and that ther is no way to requite or quite them but fayth , wherwith the wicked are not indueed nor haue any weapon so durable : they are so throughly payed for iniquity by his foundnes . And this is the way hee desireeth to pay them , Ps. 91.6 . and this for his everlasting life , his resurrection of his body and forgivenes of his sinnes . And this is the faith that delivereth from Satan , and all divillish , fals and conterfet visitation , both of foes and freendes , as in Iob. Which is most incident to Godly men , because they are a vexation to the wicked ; that when hee seeth no way to still them : yet hee is sure that his prosperity and redemption from misery must needs pacify them , and make them have not a word to say . Which Psalme is an abridgement of the whole book of Iob : for an absolution for sin , after confession and repentance : hee beeing well resolved of the favour & love of God in accepting of him , & that hee hath pleased him , because of his Advancement . Construction . Mem , is waters , and Aleph , to teach . The waters of doctrin are a great blessing , and hee is moste blessed that bestoweth it . The waters of doctrine are taken for physique , and for medicine , from the freshnes of their nature , and their fluentnes : for Enimyes of divers sortes , and for misery , for overflowing , as Is. 7. By the one kinde , hee prayeth to be saved from the other . That hee swim upon them and not be sunk by them : as the waters of Noah , for comfort , and destruction , mark the repetition . Genesis . The quiescenceys are divers . Doctrine healeth the sick . They haue eas in their sicknes , and rest on their bed , & are well supported , they have rest for their soules , and forgivenes of sinn , & it easeth the minde . The contrary , is molestation & vexation , of Enimyes and the world , that would have him dead , and out of minde , for a rest when he had no rest , and never no eas while hee liveth . His professed freendes are not peaceable to him . These waters , hee wishes for lerning enough to asswage and quiet . Hee marketh Gods plesure and quiescency in him , in brooking of his integrity and takeing him to his presence , and useing him , and in prevailing over them . For a certain token of forgivenes . THE SECOND BOOK . PSALM . XLII . HIs sonn Absolom having drivē him out of Ierusalem from the presence & service of God , called his face , and haveing him in chase and hot pursuit , and skorning him , his God and his salvation : saying , wher is thy God , and wher is thy salvation : as in Ps. 3. that hee was now in a new misery after that of Saul , like one deep calling another , or many chanels makeing a pool of affliction , with greeff upon greeff even to slaugther , Psal. 115. so that with extremity of teares and sighes and greeff , even in his very bones , at the railing and revileing , and hard oppression of the Enimy ; and doubting of his God that hee so solemnly protested before them : David bewaileth his Exile , and with great affectation of Gods presence again , prayeth for his loveing kindenes for it , that hee may have a song to sing for the same , Ps. 30. a prayer to the preserver of his life . With a good-cheer , still urgeing his undaunted confidence in the Eternall , confesseth him his present Salvation . But keeping alive the matter of the last book , which begann with Iehovah the Eternall , & his righteousnes , and ended , with the rock wherupon his foot standeth , the fayth and confidence that hee obteined by his way : hee proceedeth now by the Name of Elohim , judgement , and Kingdom of God , his Rock , useinge no other name in this Psalme but once Iehovah for mercy , & repeating that so often , and as ernestly as thirstynes requireeth drink . In whom hee is , and will bee ever comforted , and have his full trust and affiance , and for ever confess him , and waite for his salvation : and will indure , though it be never so long , in hope to come to Beth-el , Luz , and Iebuz , and Ierusalem , the hous of God , and his holly Hill and Tabernacle and Altar , and to the true service of God. And this from Exodus , for loveing kindenes and zeal , the fire and cloud : part of the Law. Construction . Mem , for waters . The Beast hath but one kinde , to quench his thirst : therfor his soul is unworthy to be expressed . But the soul of man hath divers , by reason of his divinity . The presence of God is the Scriptures : the waters of life , and salvation , and his God , and his Rock : cares , deeps , spoutes , breaches , waves , for affliction . Beth a hous : in tabernacles and the hous of God , hee honored the Scriptures , before them all , in Passover : this hee hath to prove Gods presence and salvation which hee will ever wait for without dismay , in all calamity . Attributes of water are also these : thirst , powring out , passing over , troubling , confess , make to flow or publish &c. As you shall finde plain by the allusion and affectation of wordes . Exodus . The first Petaroth , and chapter , beginneth with these wordes . These are the Names &c. The moste memorable , and the best names under heaven , and the only ones for salvation and invocation are the Names of God , which heer , hee never giveth over repeating . From hence the commission of Moses and of the Prophets ; Christ & his Apostles , Exod. 3. what God ? The God of his life , of salvation , his rock , the Eternall that shall com &c. PSALME XLIII . BY this prayer , hee claimeth his defense from God , becaus his Enimyes are ungodly , unjust and deceiptful men ; and so maketh the quarell his , wondring that hee should be thus rejected , and haue such cause of sadnes by oppression . And prayeing for a perfect understanding of the word , and his truthe called his light , that may lead him , and bring him again , to his hill , and to the Altar of God , his onely joy and delight , to thank him : hee cheers up himself with this , that hee yet still waiteth on God and confesseth him his present salvation without despaire . After the cloud and fire , Exod. 13. To make this book suitable to the book of Exodus or comming out of Aegypt : you shall mark how hee dealeth . First , hee treateth of the person that brought them out : his only God , and trust , and relye , and present salvation , as in the last Psal. 42. wher hee medleth with nothing but his Name , & his confidence in his word , his thirst after it , his comfort by it , and attendance to it . So that hee will haue no other Godes but him , according to the first commandement . And because his deliverance must be by prayer : in this Psalme , hee frame-th his request from the Promiss , Gen. 15. That dureing this time of bondage of 400 yeers , wherein they were to be so ill intreated , by a wrongfull & a subtile nation : that God now would judge him , and fight his quarell and deliver him , as Ps. 119. L. from such unkinde , untractable , subdole and unjust men , and by the light of his truthe , bring him to the right service of him . For his place , his dwellings , his Altar and his Person : that hee may com hard unto him , the God of all his joy , and delight , and that hee hath no other to bee mery with but him : and hee shall bee his onely and very God , and no other . And therfor hee willeth his minde not to be troubled and greeved , abased and dejected at this burden of sorrow for himself : but to trust still and to wait strongly upon this God , whom hee will worship , beeing sure , that hee will with all speed deliver him , & presently save him . The mistery of this Psalme is easily gathered from the first wordes , which are plain from the promiss : as for the 400. yeers in Ribhah Ribhi , wher the two Arrs make the 400 of affliction , by their travail and servitude , and unhumane usage whom God will judge . The same wordes com again to the same purpose in Psalme , 119. R. 74. And thus hee intendeth to tune his harp , in this book , wholely to the first commandemēt , & play upon the promiss . Gen. 15. for the strength of beleeff : that hee would never give over his confidence for any affliction : bee it never so long or so sore . For Truthe , the other part of the way of God. Construction . Mem , waters . For nations : and deceitfullnes and failing also : Iob 6. light and truth for the waters of the Law. Other kindes and propertyes in the last Psalme : oppression , Enimy , trouble , confess , which is to make to flow abrode &c. Ghimel , for reward , is heer answered by judgeing and revengeing Gen. 15. for the equity and justice in the office of a judge . 1. Sam. 24. And by his solemne celebration as a sacrifice . Ghimel , for waining also , as by his waiting , Ps. 131. Mog , both the letters , are to melt : as when the soul is troubled and the hart fainteth . Exodus . Gods name : his strength & confidence , and his Mirth , and his celebration , as Ps. 28. For his salvation : his mirth depends upon his salvation , and his salvation upon his presence , and that , upon his fayth . And these are , Termes , and definitions of God-head , as Names of God. PSALM XLIIII . AS the people of God , in old time , prospered not by the strength of their own armes ( as appeered still by the ods against them ) but by their wise direction , Ministry and discipline called the right hand and arme of God : and the knowledge of the Law , called the light of his countenance : and his favour , because their Religion pleased him : God himself beeing leader of their armyes , as a sheepheard leadeth his sheep : and seeing God hathe now failed to goe with his people ( erring in their understanding ) and made no reckoning of them ; but hath given them , and sold them for nothing , to their Enimyes , & obscured them among the Dragons , the Hethen , to shame them : that they suffer all manner of reproche , of all about them ; that Iacob is ashamed of his commande : now because hee himself trusted not in his own strength for salvation , but hee and they all of the same faith , and the same Religion , and that they never failed a Iot of the covenant between God and them ( notwithstanding their misery ) but held themselves from all forain worship : and for that all their punishment was for him , that is , for their Religions sake : The church , as Ps. 134. prayeth for his loveing kindenes likewise , that hee would consider their oppression & not to sleep , as Ps. 121. but redeem and help them , and by his Name deliver them . That they might have a victorious Issue over their Enimyes , with shame to them , and prais to his Name for ever . In the first part of this Psalme , is the manifest majesty , & souveraignty , & worship of God in his workes of old , as Ps. 111. & hee makeeth him a king for the bringing of the childrē of Israel out of Aegypt , by his judgemēt in his Law , & placeing thē in the lād of promiss , pittying their case & favouring thē . Makeing Iacob a cunning wrestler , & to trise up the heeles of the hethē , & supplant thē . So now as the church hath need , hee prayeth God to help Iacob & the Church against their Enimyes , because their trust is onely in him , & not in weapons , & the strength of man. In the second part : hee sheweth that the Church is in wors case them that in Aegypt , and their suffering , slavery , subjection and servitude far greater : in somuch , as hee sheweth heerin , true sacrifice for the love of God. Affliction standeth for Sacrifice , as sacrifice is a Type of affliction in the Law ; which beeing indure-ed for the love of God and his Law , and covenant : doth chalenge favour from God , & reconcilement to him . Now the Church offereth to bee tryed by God , to whom no secrets of the hart are hid : that dureing all this heavy burden of oppression , they haue never forgotten , nor been fals in his covenant : neither in thought nor deed have once fallen back , or turned their steps aside out of his way : or have been out of minde of him , or haue once held up their handes or besought any other God. And for this great love , they beeing thus dayly slain : according to the second commandement ( as it belongeth to the first ) hee prayeth for Gods favour and redemption , out of their low estate by affliction and oppression ; with a sound hope and confidence of salvation , as they have offered their syncere and clean harts , and upright and pure mindes , the sacrifice of righteousnes and innocencey before him , as Psal. 4. from Abrahams offering of his sonn , Gen. 22. Construction . Mem , waters . As the Hethen , Nations and peoples , Enimy , afflictors , misery and oppression , place of Dragons , great rivers or sea of Aegypt . Daleth , a door : the door of hope , Hos. 2. Is. 65. from Ios. 7. door , for a vally . The Entrance of their plantation in Canaan . Which was in the vally of Akor wher they received discomfiture and fled , before Aie . The Allusion is plain , by repeating of the word Achor beeing of the same sound , Is. 45. Their turning back . Ther is a kinde of entrance by the sword which is called a door . Likewise the door of faith , Actor . 14. by the Ministry called the right hand & Arme of God. And by the light of Gods presence , which is instruction . Wher by , Christ calleth himself a door , and a sheepheard , for goeing in and out by him , and his feeding of them , Ioh. 10. as of Cirus , Is. 45. Mad , to meat , for the division of the land by Iosua , Mad , a garment for both the letters . Exodus . His King and his Lord , the God of Isaack : that hee would not sleep when hee is called upon , and let his people be made a laughing stock to the world , but rise and help them . In Isaak was his covenant , & Iacob hitherto hath syncerely kept it : therfor they would not be made a scoff to the world , a reproche & shame to their neighbours , and all ignominy to suffer , as sacrifice , when they have Gods Name in such singular honour and reverence . From Isaaks Name and sacrifice , Gen. 17.22 . which is heer meant by the vilenes of reputation , and sorenes of affliction , which they got by their defect in warr , when Gods word and his presence shined not unto them . Remember the Echo : & like sheep for their meat , &c. like slain sheep &c. Again , thou puttest us a laughter , &c. thou puttest us a byword , &c. PSALM XLV . HE sheweth in this psalme , the Espousals of the Lamb and his wife : of Christ and the Church : the Kingdom and majesty of God Ps. 145. and the heavenly Ierusalem : the reconcilement between the word and the faythfull beleevers : for the mutuall love of wedlock , and chastity , and continencey in religion ; by an Emblem of an eternall comfort , and a pleasant love song or Epithalamion , most sweetly . That as Mariage make-eth glad and mery hartes : that they bestow their hartes and delightes and whole love , one upon another : so that the Church should have none other God but one . And to this purpose , hee handleth both partes of the Ephithalamion , which sheweth to bee more glorious , and more virtuous then the earth can bear , yet occasioned by Salomons Match with Pharohs daughter . And beginning with the Groom : hee makeeth him the fayrest and best spokeen of all men , becaus by his gracious cariage , hee got worship and honour from all men , and is blessed of God for ever . And this is his Cincture , and strength , and virtue , Ps. 111.145 . that makeeth him like a Giant , or a worthy , Ps. 19.89 . Hee makeeth him also a Knight , that is mounted upon victorious Truthe , and caried with meek Iustice , with true humility , to ride prosperously . That insisting and insideing heerupon , his Ministry and right hand may teach him terrible things : and from hence to steek his Enimyes to the hart . And with sharp and keen words , subdue the people under him . Lastly , hee makeeth him a King , that hath none but God for his Throne , and rest and confidence : for soundnes of Iudgement , and defense of religion . as Psalm 89. And his Rod of Iustice gets him a crown of rejoyceing , and anoyntment above his fellowes : from his very God that hee serveth . The pretious matter hee had to write of . His clothes are all perfumed with lovely cariage , and sweet behaviour , to make him delectable and amiable , before the Queen and her women , all in Gold and perles , the lovelynes of the church , for pureity of religion and cleernes of doctrine , to delight him . And now , haveing runn through all the kindes of fansyes , and bravery of the word of God , of Christ , the Law and the Bridegroom , that can move love or affection , to allure the Church to his society and familiarity , and to woo them : hee passeth to the other part of the Epithalamion , of the Bride , the Church : how shee might possible , stirr the love of Christ unto her : And this is all , by her inward service of him , her allegiance and obedience to him , to forsake father and mother and all the world for him , to subject herself only unto him . And bow unto him and follow him , whither-so-ever hee goeth . And this is the bewty of the Bride that winneth her Husband , and this is the cariage that shall get her honour , and presents , and exaltation from the richest even her Humility . Besides , the Bride hath no outward glory , nor pompe , neither is the churches bravery in visibility , or worldly Eminencey : but is both secret and sacred , and moste spirituall and inward , to make it the more worthy , the more pretious , the more optative , expetible and desireable : so that as , shee is inwardly moste glorious and rich : so the bravery of the Church , and riches of religion , is only in the depth of the spirit and divine wisdom , and secrecy of understanding , moste maydenly chaste and holy . Which being of a pure conversation , shall bee reveled and brought unto Christ , with a train , of pure virgines and undefiled Saintes , the Catholick Church : which is holy by the mysteryes of godlynes . And the better to affect him : they shall com flowing to his court , with all alacrity and cheerfulnes , to pleas him . The end of all is , that in steed of Abraham , Isaak , and Iacob , his fathers , the principall men of religion : by this affinity and union : ther may bee propagated , a stemm of princes out of their children , ( they beeing becom one flesh ) to rule all nations , to make his Name a famous memoriall in every generation , for the people to worship for ever . For his defense and deliverance . And this is a great secret , concerning Christ and the Church , for the convoy of the Church to the service of God , shewing their God and King and Defendour and Conductor . As the Poet hath Hector and Andromache for the Generall and his host . Construction . Mem waters , peoples and Nations and kingdoms &c. Throne for kingdom , Name for kingdom as in the Lords prayer . By the repeating of the eternity of both . This Throne is for ever &c. And thy Name and fame I will make remembred , by the people for ever and ever . &c. as Ps. 145. For the property of water : thes wordes doubled : the Queen and her women shall bee brought flowing , and com unto the King &c. and unto his closset &c. He , for the bravery of his presence , the choisest presence . Mem and He , for Meh , what , for the definition , being a good matter : and his work of the King : his mariage beeing the best for the Ioy therof . And Mahah , to linger , mentioneth the expedition : as swift , &c. flowing , &c. Exodus . The Passover : of the Queen to the King , and their famous Issue for ever . as before . The Name of God , and the Termn King , is heer confounded , as Ps. 95. 2. Kings . 18.19 . &c. by definition the King is called a God , as the poet called Augustus &c. Elohim beeing taken vocative , but in the greek it is doubtfull Heb. 1. as both vocative and nominative . PSALM XLVI . WHer God is present and people well advised , ther wanteth no redy help in distress : so the Church of God haveing allwayes the Ark and the doctrine therof , called the river-chanels of the citty , by them to instruct them : fear nothing . Though the rageing Hethen , called the roreing sea , set upon them : and though the Kingdomes called the mountains , shake with their proud invasion , and many Kingdomes overthrowen by it , and great alteration be in the world : yet they assure themselves , Ierusalem cannot be stirred , becaus God , their Ark and confidence is in it , and will help them early , before the Enimy be up ; beeing sure by the word , the God of warr is with them , and will releeve them . That useth to make strange work in the word : as Ps. 76. to cease warrs , and make them hold their handes , that hee himself onely may bee exalted . A virgin shall conceive and bear a sonn , and thou shalt call his Name Immanuel . All the Churches conception is peace , and the childe that is born , is wonderfull for counsel , and the prince of peace , and hath all the government to himself , as a God of valour and father of eternity . And this is the God of Iacob that is all their Munition , the God of hostes that is allwayes with them , by their confidence in the wisdom and righteousnes of the Law. And in all their distresses they call upon him , as Immanuel , and in all commotions , for the God of Iacob , the God of war and prince of peace , their safegard and whole relye . Beeing perswaded of present help from him , becaus they see , by the Scriptures : what wonderfull debate hee hath quieted , and the strife and contention hee hath ceassed , and the peace that hee hath made in despight of all preparation , that hee onely may bee conqueror , and stand the last man upon the earth , as Redeemer , and bee exalted for ever . For his dwelling allwayes among them , and his watchfullnes over them , and his early riseing to defend them , by the power of his word . And for this cause they will haue no other Gods but him , the God of hostes , the God of Iacob , the right God of their Salvation : upon whom they still presume , and are stout and undaunted for ever . Construction . Mem , waters : swelling , and roreing , and troubled waters : for Seas : the rageing of the Nations and Kingdomes : and for Warr : any distres and desolations by warr , as Da : 9. secondly , the quiet waters of life , in the temple , and doctrine of the word to save , which they call , the God of warr , for martiall discipline that is still on their side , and redy to help them : and voweth to prevaile over all the other kindes of waters . Vav , a hook or crook , for the copulative . The church is not pulled back with fear or cowardlynes , but affixed as God with us &c. The two letters make the Incliticque . Mo , Ps. 2. alluded unto , by the Churches Relyeing , and help : affixed . Mark the repetition . Exodus . This resembles altogether the passing the red-sea , both for phrase and effect : the one water working upon the other . The word melted the hartes of them , it runs through the battail , and dauntes the Army . And maketh way through the Enimy , and tameth the seas by the presence therof , the High : for Moses authority . The Nam● is Iacobs God , the God of warr , the best discipline , and Munition about them . Mark the repetition . The God of Hostes &c : and mountaines and kingdoms , and waters , and nations compared &c. For a kinde of Passover or escape . PSALM . XLVII . THe Eternall being soveraigne King and Defender of all the earth , having conquered diverse Nations , giues Iacob the best inheritance , because he loved him ; and sitting in his holy Throne ( the Scriptures ) of all people in the world hee preferreth the Iewes , the people of Abrahams God : that is , them of the faith and righteousnesse of Abraham , and that of the law . Therefore , the Corites invent for the church , to sing a plaudite and triumph to their king , with all shrilnes & alacrity , for that their God raigneth and that for their Iustification . The second Psalme giveth warning to all the world , to subiect themselues to the Promiss , and content themselues with obedience therunto , and reverently and willingly abide it : and not to resist the hope of the faithfull , for feare of destruction . Neither was the law of Moses made to resist the faith of Abraham , or against the promiss : but to describe the righteousnesse of Abraham , and set out the tree of a godly life , whose leaues never fall to the ground , as Psalme 1 ; but all his words are with judgement as Psal. 112. And so is the law the way to grace , and hindereth not the promiss : and Moses and the Prophets , to Abrahams bosom . Now the Sun-beames of the promiss psal . 2. in this Psalme , shine vpon the walles of Sion , both in the same words and matter . For God haueing subdued the Nations , and giuen Iacob a proud Inheritance : that hee hath prevailed with great shouting , both high , and terrible : and is inthronized in his law , as a mightie King and defendour of all the earth : for this great defence of the Church , and their deliverance , and their setting of them now at their rest : They will all Nations to triumph , and sing to their God , and extoll their King , and praise his wisedome , and to haue no other God , because this their God , the God of Abrahams people , haue been best defended of all the people of the world , and hee hath heere performed his promiss Gen. 15. And thus the childe of righteousnesse receaueth his blessing , psal . 2. and anoyntment aboue his fellowes , as psal . 45. Now the reason of inverting the words , Abraham , Isack and Iacob , in the three last Psalmes : is , that hee may with Abraham conclude the promisse , and fall againe to the storie . And this also is holy and most mysticall , but vsuall : As Thummim before Vrim , Ps. 26.27 . Sarah before Abraham psal . 111.112 . and the diverse transpositions and interruptions , altering and maiming of the order of the A B C Psalmes for godly mysteryes . Construction . Mem , waters , people and Nations , Inheritance , the pride of Iacob &c. Gods holy throne is the Sciptures , which is also waters . yf all the Nations in the world were gathered together , like the water Gen. 1. yet becaus hee reigneth over all in the scriptures , his people are cheeff for the preeminence of discipline , as the waters aboue the firmament , have domination over the waters beneath . So hee sitteth upon the water and ruleth ●he waters : Ps. 29. by subdueing all and takeing his choise . For this , upon the letter Zain , to hear : the loudest and moste triumphing noise and voices for the hearing , and sweetest chaunting and psalming is comanded , for the excellencey of his Majesty , by the way of waters also . Psalm . 93 , 96. by a like metaphore of clapping &c , Exodus . The God of Abraham , one other of the Names of Moses authority and commission , is described , Exo. 3. From Gen. 14. by the terme , Eljon , High &c. Maggen Defens : words from that text . Ther is no higher thing then raigning and power and Dominion . And this for beeing above all , and excelling all : hee is to be honoured above all , and solemnized , as by the doubled wordes and phrases : Sing psalmes &c. so is hee over all , and passeth all , and his kingdom is for a kinde of passover , and promotion . PSALM . XLVIII . FOr the greatnes of the majesty of God , and the glory of Sion , the wonder of the world : the Enimyes that combineed against Ierusalem , were astonyed , and trembled for fear . This was Edom ; Moab and Amon , against Iehoshaphat King of Iudah . Now becaus they know , that their Gods Righteousnes ; Iudgement and dayly kindenes for their service of him , dwelling in their towers and Temple , is their Defens ; whose Name and Prais is over all the world : the Chorites sing in Procession his Iudgements , Ps. 97. goeing round about the citty , to consider her strength ●nd glory , to record it , and tell it to their children , that they may keep it in minde for ever , in memory of their deliverance and serve him . As all bodyes live by the hart : so the Law , and body of Moses , is not without affection and devotion , and a liueing and a gratious soul within it , for salvation and recovery of Mankinde after sinn , and redemption after his fall . And this is by a righteous government called the Kingdom of God , which was still their conductor and defendour , and the cloud over the mercy seat , that was the priests warrant for sacrifice and atonement : so highly commended in the last Psalme . For the wonderfull grace and blessing of inheritance , bestowed upon them in the promiss : which was covered with a vail , as the vaile lay over their hartes and understanding , when they read it . For as the Law of Moses is to trick out and express the righteousnes of Abraham : it must not forget his faith , nor his love , nor his bountifullnes and giftes of the minde that last for ever : Iudgement , fidelity and mercy , the weighty matters , as Psal. 112. but in one Ceremony or other precept or complement , the whole man must be thought upon , as well for grace and adoption as for judgement and condemnation , as Ps. 101. seeing life is promissed to the observers . And this part of the Law , is that which Christ in the new Testament so much preferreth ; as uprightnes and cleernes of the inner man , which is the absolute holynes and perfection of godlynes , the way to grace which hee requireth . Wherby a man seemeth to bee divided against himself : the flesh against the spirit , & grace becommeth opposit to workes , as the Apostle sheweth by division of the Law. And this is Christes fullfilling of the Law , and baptisme of the holy Ghost , that angered the Iewes , and sett all the world on fire , beeing beyond the comun understanding . In this Psalme hee cometh to the kingdom and citty of their great king , and defendour , their God of righteousnes , in the last Psalme , & this is Ierusalem ; their university , mount Sion , his holy hill , the school of all godlynes and virtue , and of the Law of God. The Law shall com forth of Sion , and the word of God out of Ierusalem &c. Now as all types of holynes were to bee moste glorious for worship and majesty : as Psal. 45.145.111 . So the Iewes ( for fame , of their religion ) would have the place ( like the tabernacle ) to excell . So that all the world might take delight in the structure and order of the temple , and Synagogue of Ierusalem , this theatre and oracle of the Law , and stage wher the word is acted : more then the Queen of the South , took , in the sitting of Salomons servantes . Wher two or three are gathered togeter in my name , ther am I in the midst of them , & so experience hath taught them and assureth the Church , that Gods love is allwayes in his Temple where his service is , and never away from them that fear him . And shewing first the greatnes of God in this place , for his dayly worship and his fame , his name & calling upon him , their munition , his presence and releeff upon their Batlementes , Psal. 56. by confounding their enimyes : his kindenes in his temple , which is better then life , as Ps. 63. his fame & praise over all the world : and because hee doth nothing but Iustice , with his right hand , and scepter of his lerned ministry ; that breaketh all the heathen in peeces , as Ps. 2. that Sion and all Iudah may be glad of his judgements : they would not have this place ever forgotten . For that this is the very God , their only God that hath saved them from death . And therfor likewise , they will haue no other God but him for ever . As in the former Psalmes , & according to the Tabernacle , Exod. 36. wherin , the love of God was dayly resident . Construction . Mem , waters , for the Citty and Godly policy therof , the habitation of Godlynes and holynes , Is. 33.48 . of kindenes and Iustice and Iudgement . the waters of the Law.

Heeris the Altar of God , and heer is the Priesthood , and place of service and sacrifice , which Israel in Aegypt , so much desired , Exo. 7.8.9 . according to the promiss to return to , and to make mery at , and the Name of the Citty is , Ther is the Eternall , Ezech. 48. as the Name Iehovah the Eternall , is Righteousnes . PSALM XLIX . THe wisdom and understanding of this Prable , which hee would have all the world to know , is this . The vanity of riches to be trusted in , and of the Owners ; their foolish wayes that glory in them , and their disappointments that keep not their honour , but dye like beastes , and consume in the pit , like rotten sheep , and their wealth commeth they know not to whom , to make mery withall , while death and the grave get dominion over them . And the comfort of the Poore in a hard time , in famine or other adversity , or perplexity , the crossnes of his life , called the iniquity of his heeles . That when as the Richeman that likeed this life , and the worship belonging to it , shall dye without riches or glory , to descend with him : the Poor-man shall bee , redeemed from his misery , and bee accepted and live , to bee heire to his fathers that are deceasseed , and injoy his substance , the word of God. Thus is the Poor man for his patience , exalted up to heaven , and the Richman condemned to hell , for want of understanding : the one beeing alive and happy , and the other dead and in hell for sorrow . They have Moses and the Prophets , let them hear them . &c. Yf Moses and the Prophets can quench the wrath of God , and extinguish the flames of Hell , & quiet a tormented conscience ; then surely , Moses and the Prophets are the true and living way to grace and to Christ : as Christe is the way to the father , and the understanding of Moses and the Scriptures . Abrahams bosom . And f●om hence is that parable , luke 16. which is heer proclaimed to Riche-men , and Men in adversity . Which doctrine , as it is called a parable in the greek , and a comparison in the hebrew : so in latine , it is moste properly to bee termed a conjecture , which is a doctrine much used of the Iewes , called Signes , and is moste frequent in the Psalmes : parables beeing a good demonstration , & a principall evidence of truthe . As tokens shew freendes : so signes are a peece of knowledge , wherby wee are brought to beleeff : and as wee know in part by them : So is it a step of faith . And by this observation , David is mightily confirmed , & highly honoureth the doctrine through-out the Psalmes , and greatly complaineth , that Ierusalem wanted lerned men , therin , as Ps. 74. Therfor hee first propoundeth the Riche-mans travaile concerning the world : counting it a hard thing for him to enter into the kingdom of heaven . And makeing all his habilements & facultyes of riches , nothing worth , and all his pleasure to bee but the flattery of the world , and but for a short season : because the Rich hath many freendes , as Salomon sayeth , and good likeing , is highly commended of the world , that taketh him clean away and deludeeth him , and bewitcheth & astonyeth his understanding ; that hee is no more capable then a beast Dan. 4. of the golden rules of righteousnes , by law or by faith , as a scholer of Ierusalem . So dyeth hee and goeth into oblivion , and descendeth into utter darknes , and corruption , like a dumb beast never to be mentioned more : which for want of fayth or virtue to succed him , or good education to out live or survive him : hee dyeth a second death , and all his honour and glory is ended with him in the dust , as Ps. 7. and death triumpheth over him . And as Pride goeth before the fall : so the fall of man , is the trusting in riches , and honour , and letting slip knowledge and understanding & the fear of the Lord. When David seeth this end com of the Rich , whose state all along is contrary , 2. Thes. 1. to his : hee beeing much perplexed with the errors of his life : hee easily concludeth , that by his dayly affliction and misery , hee is therby , to look for eternall comfort , glory and felicity . Therfor hee feareth not but hee shall bee made wise unto salvation , and by correction escape the pit , that his form and shape corrupt not , as Ps· 16. but his faith and rigteousnes shall last for ever . From the fall of Adam , who was turned out of honour for disobedience , Gen. 3. Construction . Mem , waters . For understanding and knowledge , waters of life , the waters of Iudah &c. Is. 48. also riches or abundance of wealth , the Riche-mans way makes him a fool , & no better thā a beast , yf hee wanteth wisdom . Hee seeketh for land & houses to last for ever in his Name : hee findeth suddainly the grave , for his everlasting dwelling , which shall have the dominion over him , and wear him all to dust , for the letter Tet , and Mot , both the letters , for his translation , such is his passing hence , or demigration , a kinde of passover . The moste illustrious estate in this world , & moste glittering turneth to long lasting obscurity , Eccl. 11. mark the resounding . Man in honour &c. and all the termes doubled . Is. 8.11.32 . Ier. 2.51 . Exodus . The ninth Petaroth , and chapter 30. for the Sacrifice or offering mony of every person . But that can not redeem from death . No welth is sufficient , but the waters of life and understanding , of knowledge , & of the fear of God. This is the substance hee presumeth on Ps. 16. mark the words of redemption : no man shall redeem , &c : but God will redeem &c. again remember . A kinde of Name is when a man desireth to leave a Memory . PSALM L. THe word of the Everlasting , the God of Godes , by the mouth of Moses in his last testament to the children of Israel : hath been preached in Sion , to all the world , for a warning of his angry , fearfull and horrible judgement of his Law , called a consumeing fire , for falling away & transgression . Now hee , beeing the God that judgeth : calleth heaven and earth to witness of his Iust●ce , which as in Psalme 40. in the Priestly part of service , is an utter condemnation of sacrifice for the glorifyeing of God. And also of the leviticall part : the usurping of the word , that is , without regard of instruction or observation . Therfor , because hee is a God of mercy , and in his mercy releaseth , when they call on him in distress : hee wil have mercy , and no● Sacrifice ; a spirituall Thanks-offering , rather then a cloveen footed bullock , Ps. 69. to glorify him : and hee will shew him the way of salvation ; least in his wrath , they bee consumeed and devoured without deliverance . As gifts are not gratious to the kinde , and as presentes provoke not freendes : and all the glory of freendes , is to bee freely used , and called upon in distress : so al Gods glory is free mercy , and not sacrifice , & to bee wholely , and onely relyed and called upon : because the best sacrifice serveth not in time of judgement : but a penitent invocation in trouble , for him that will be saveed and comforted . And they must have no other freend or God , but him , to worship , to call upon or to serve . And this is for the profession of his deer Saintes , and chosen Servantes , and Elect , mentioned in the first table : whom in his Kingdom , hee thus reprooveth , for their drowzines in observing . Again the wicked are utterly condemned before him , for takeing his name wholely in vain , through out the second table ; when hee observeth none of his commandements : but resisteth his will , & breaketh his Law , though it bee in his mouth . To these also belong confession , repentance and amendement , & a calling upon God , yf they will be put in the way of salvation . So that , the book of the Law , the two Tables beeing opened , and the whole world to bee judged : either for misdooing or not dooing , wee are all condemned , without repentance and the mercy of God. Like the breaking of the Tables , Exo. 31.32 . for defect in the holy preesthood & Levites , as well as the wicked . Lev. 6.7 .

And what kinde of Sacrifice is best , & properest way of salvation , and the greatest glory to God , even the Fruit and Calves of the lips , Hos. 14. Heb. 13. See these wordes repeated : Sacrifice to God , &c. Hee that sacrifice-eth Thanks-offering &c. God called a consumming fire , for his Name . PSALM LI. DAvid takeeth his occasion in this Psalme , to accuse himself , of Murther and Adultery , though hee speaketh but of Murther , which was caused by Adultery . And seeing in his conscience the uglynes of this Sinn and transgression , and the continuall blemish , of his guiltines ; and that hee had onely sinned against God , and highly displeased him , by transgressing his word ; becaus the fleshly and naturall man had prevailed in him , and that hee had this wickednes in him from the womb , according to the truthe of the Scriptures , as Ps. 58. and God loved the truthe from the hart : and confession beeing requireed , as Ps. 50. and as the story of the Leper doth follow sacrifice in the Law : so heer . And therfor hee turneth his sinning to Lepry ; and for his form , proceedeth in the person of a Leper , and prayeth for forgivenes , as a Leper for clensing , Math. 8. Luc. 17. And in this cloud , hee beginneth at the mercy seat , that God would shew his mighty kindenes and mercy upon him , and wipe away all his trespass , and wash away all his sinn , and clens him from the spots of his iniquity , which compassed his heeles and marred his goeing , as Ps. 49. and giue him inward wisdom , to sanctifye him and purge him like Issop and clense him : to justify him , and wash him , whiteer then snow , and deliver him out of temptation , and cheer his krokeen bones . That hee would not look upon the sorenes of his sinnes , and that hee would blot out , and deface his iniquity , that hee would clens his corrupt thoughtes and clothe him with a clean skinn , skinn him over again with a right spirit , and make him a new man. That God would not put him out of the Church , for his plague and sores of Sinn , not deprive him , of all his spirit of holynes ; but make him glad with his salvation , and sustein him with the spirit of zeal and willingnes : Ps. 145. that hee may convert trespassers and sinners , to the wayes of Godlines . And that the very God of his salvation , would deliver him from Murther , that hee may be able to speake of Gods Iustice , and tell out his Prais . For the Matter , becaus it is the confession , and confidence requireed in the last Psalme , and becaus God refuseeth all other sacrifice and offering : hee commeth now with his brokeen and contrite hart , and a minde all in peeces , with greeff for his sinn . That hee would mend up Zion , repair his knowledge , and re-edify his understanding , by the walls of Ierusalem , that God may pleas himself , with a perfet offering and sacrifice of righteousnes , when they offer up bullocks upon his Altar .

BEtween us and you is firmed a great gulf , they that would goe from hence to you , cannot , and they that would com from thence to us , cannot . So is the difference and distance between the Rich and the Poor , not small , and the passage impossible . For when the Poor hath all his hope and trust in God : the Rich reckoneth not of God at all , haveing gotten what his hart can wish , but blaspheme●h as Ps. 10. Neither can the Rich-man bee brought to the Poor-mans faith , nor the Poor bee made profane , or can they be reconcileed ech to other ; So farr a sunder is Prosperity and Adversity , pride and bashfullnes . Neither by any meanes , can their punishment or reward be changed , so great a firmament , and so unpassible a space is set between them . Disdeigne keepeth off the one , and f●ar , the other . And likewise , when their lots be changeed , the one beeing made happy , the other accursed , to make the righteous mery . And this opposition is good , by the divers and contrary sens of divers wordes in the same Psalme , as Havoth , welth and corruption : Chesed , blasphemy , and kindenes : and Sheresh , in a contrary sens . as Psal. 80. The occasion of this Psalme is Doegs discovery of David , and complaining of his freend Ahimelek , to get his life , and that the Poor , in affliction , might have no place left him at all : and this , by the practise of a keen and subdole tongue , that causeth all mischeeff and division , variance and debate , strife and contention , never to bee reconcileed or appeased more . It is corrupt , and fals , and subdole , and sharp , malitious , and spitefull , and inflameed with blasphemy , and useeth al the wayes of destruction , devouring & subversion : so his judgement must bee to feel eternall flames therin , and his own overthrow from God , and an expelling out of his hous and plantation , and an utter rooting of him out of the world with disgrace , for trusting in his highe place & his welth , because the hevenly Father plāted him not : whē David is still green in the hous of God , with the fayth in his merceyes , and admireing the mighty goodnes and operation of his Name for ever . The form is , from the tree of knowledge of good and evill , and the tree of life Gen. 3. Behold , I put before you , good & bad , life & death , blessing & cursing &c. Now wher the tong should bee kept frō evill , and the lips from guile , and they should hate & shunn evill , & doe good , yf th●y mean to have life , and good dayes : as Ps. 97.34 . Doeg is blameed heer , for his love●ng of ill more then good , and therfor held accursed , and to be throwen out of his habitation , and out of the favour of God. For man liveth not by b●ead onely , but by the word of God and faith theron . Which is the tree of life , as Psal. 56. The favour of God , Ps. 30. The tree of the everlasting mercyes of God , that are never to bee spent and consumeed : but by faith men gather them continually , like Manna in the wildernes , and they be renewed every morning , allwayes green by a lively fayth . And this is Davids plantation and habitation in the hous of God. The matter is , the abjection , rejection & cōdemnation of the Rich , out of all favour of God : & the everlasting continuance of the Godly , in the bosom of Abraham , and pleasant study of the Law. And as Lazarus is raised in David , by prayer , as Ps. 51. by such a faith , to be entertained and comforted in heaven : so the rich Doeg is thrown down into torments of disgrace in hell , in this Psalme , by the final judgement of God , that is of a mighty depth , as Ps. 36. and that is an everlasting gulf betwixt them . So as the 50. is for judgement , the 51 and this Psalme , for the partyes : so all are from the Parable , Ps. 49. Construction . The letter Nun , defective : or the word Nun , to spring or grow , or from Nub , Ps. 6.2 . to bring forth riches , grow or increas . The whole is defection or affection , and the end , destruction or flowrishing . How the great man misseth , you may see , Ps. 34.97 . both in his tongue and affection , delighting in evill , in steed of good , and speaking of falshood . So missing of truth , the fear of God : his life is shortened . David delighteth in the best good : the Mercey and Name of God , and the preaching of that , and outliveth . Beth , hous , and tabernacles &c. thou lovest &c. twise . Exodus . The life that pleaseth God , or that God commandeth , is in steed of a service and sacrifice unto God : and heer David sacrificeth his whole time to the word of God. For the fear of God , as Psal. 34. his trust beeing called his Strength , for another of Godes Names . PSALM LIII . THer is no folly so great as the denyeing of God , and who is so foolish as my people , sayth God ? with their filth an abominable wrong , that maketh them stink in his sight . Ierusalem had many eyes , yet could they not see what belonged to their peace . Pride and prodigality throweth them out of their estates , sinn , and transgression of the Law of God , whippeth them out of doores , like the rod upon the fooles back . For disobedience , they are made d●solate , the flood hath swept them clean away , they are cast into prison , and utter da●knes , and obscureity , and carryed into a lamentable captivity , wher is nothing but weeping and howling , till their tongues be drye , & on fire , and their harts burn with horror and wrath and sorrow , and they have no comfort . In this horrible affliction and torment , they call , and cry pittiously for Ierusalem again , and for som of the joyes and praises of Sion , the place of their salvation , to tip their tongues and refresh them . And this is the occasion . The form is from Adams expulsion out of Paradise , Gen. 3. as all the heavens are Gods , but the earth is given to the children of men : Ps. 115. so God haveing placed man , innocent upon the earth : hee by and by groweth full of corruption , and moste abominable for wrong dealing . Then God looketh out of the highest heavens , and asketh for him , and out of the Scriptures , hee inquireeth for his innocencey , and his wisdom in seeking of God : and they play all hid , and no such man was to bee found , no , not one good man at all , as Ps. 12. They all stink with abominable corruption & folly , and goe backward , and dare not com foorth ; but are a frayed & abashed , that God hath forsaken them , because they are expelled for their trespass , and their bones all scattered in captivity . Shall wee sinn that grace may abound ? God forbid , sayth the Apostle : So , all molesters and workers of Mischeff , that call not upon God , eat of the tree of life , and devoure it like bread , destroy the Scriptures , and make havok of the word , and spend the mercyes of God , and waste and consume the people of God , and eat up the Church with profanenes . So , the question is not , wher man is , but wher a good-man is , and ther is no such , which is the Mystery of this Psalme , by repetition of the wordes . The matter , wherby it hangeth to the former Psalme is , that they all love falshood more then truthe , and wrong more then righteousnes : and therfor they receiue the wages of sinn , which is death , because they loved not life , nor the word of God that should save their soules . Construction . Nun , to spring or grow : the contrary is to fade , or to be defective . So the wicked are , in the fear of God , in dooing of good , as Ps. 34. or of wisdom , in not calling upon him . Ghimel , to doe good : so bothe the Wiseman and the Goodman is wanting , by their workes . Both the letters make Nag , of Nagah , to be cleer . Mark the doubling of the termns , and it will express the intendement . Exodus . The Fear , for the fear of God , and the dispair that the wicked make . Because God , the Fear that guardeth them that fear him , and worship him , Psal. 34. hath scattered them . The not serving of God , because hee lets his people goe into captivity , doth much hurt among them , and freats them , and much dismayes them : therfor they pray for return . The people are not in the right fear , and ther is a defect in the service , and the Sacrifice is reprooved : as yf it would bee mended , yf God would releas his people . For with them , ther is no God , or els they dispair of the right God &c. So the termnes Fear , and God , are equall heer , and the one soundes to the other , to express the same . As the Fear of Isaack , for the God of Isaack . Gen. 31. PSALM . LIV. SAtan shall seek to fann and winnow you like wheat , and som of you shall hee cast into prison . Ther is no safe place for the man of God , but the divill and tirants will finde him out and beewray him ; strangers and such as have no respect of God at all , as Ps. 53. as were the Zips , which made haste to tell Saul , as soon as they could discry him , amongst them . And thus bee all placees sifted for him , that hee can have no rest , which maketh him in the next Psalme , wish for the wings of a dove , to fly from them far enough , into the wildernes , for rest : and all is for his life . This sheweth that the rich hath many freendes , and all places will serv the mighty . Wherever David goeeth , or wherever hee hide-eth , Saul can hear of him . Sayth Eliah , they have slain thy Prophetes , and I onely am left alive , and they seek my life ; the same may bee sayed of David and more : ther is onely one good man left , and one after Gods own hart , and they seek his life : but this is the hower & power of darknes . From these , David prayeth , that seeing all their dooing is against God and his word ; and that God is all his help and confidence : and the Lord is with them that sustein him : that hee would by his victorious Name , and light of his word , defend him and save him ; and reward his Enimyes with the evill , and destroy them , as Ps. 89. according to his promiss . That hee may liberally and freely sacrifice to him , and worship his beneficiall Name , and his word , and the calling upon him , for delivering him from all distress , to stand in the face of his Enimye and behold him . Construction . Nun , defective . The whole is upon desolation , resisting and deprivation , as strangers and aliens , and cruell ones , & they that are clean without God , Eph. 2. that seek his life , on the one part : and on the contrary : Assisting , saveing and defending , by the great calling upon God. According to the word , Nun , to spring or wax great , Ps. 72. Daleth , a door , for the enterteynment of his prayer , from the door of his mouth , Psal. 141. Mich. 7. door of utterance , Col. 4. Nod a fugitive for another kinde of defection . Exodus . His Free will offering , shall bee his commendation of prayer , & the Name of God , for his deliverance and salvation , and for the great benefit of calling upon him , as you may see , by the entrance , and conclusion , by the repetition . His victorious Name , &c. the goodnes of his Name &c. And this for another kinde of sacrifice , and a reasonable serving of God , Rom. 12. according to their promiss in Aegypt . For his virtue , the rigteousnes of his Name , and goodnes that attended Moses , Exod. 33. against them , because they were opposite . PSALM LV. BEeing in a mighty agony for the rebellion of his sonn Absolom , and revolting of his privy counseller , Ahitophel , his usual companion , as Ps. 62. ( of which hee could not beware , because of trust , nor bear it ) and for the seditious trechery of the Citty , and lamentable and mischevous deceipt , that Ierusalem was full of : & the mischeeffs in their dwelling houses , which was intolerable : when they strike hand , ( beeing secure ) and perform not : and speak fair wordes and cut his throat : whom hee was now fallen foul on : David prayeth for speedy conveiance out of it , into the wildernes , from the hurly burly of it , and by the wings of a dove ; which hee makeeth his providence upon the Eternall ; in whom hee trusteth , to whom hee greatly complaineth , & upon whom hee allwayes calleth for deliverance : for confusion of their tongues for unjust contention . That they may swallow their tongues , and eat their own threatnings . That they may feel death and hell , in their lives likewise , and torments , by a pit of destruction . And as they are Murtherers , and Traitors , and shorteners of life : so that they may not reach out half their time ; that hee may have peace , for the warr they make him . And this hee prayeth the Almighty , that is allwayes present , with them , and knoweth their mindes : to answer them ; their dissembling beeing unanswerable by man. His request in this Psalme , is deliverance from guile , and injury , the breed of deceipt and corruption , and viperousnes , which is contention , and strife , and that by degradation in bodyes politique , from the highest , to the lowest . In the Citty , it is every wher : upon the walles , in the streetes , and in their dwelling houses , and among freendes , as falshood in fellowship continually . Vpon the walles : they are traitors , in their streetes : cousseners and in their houses : hypocrites , and with their freendes : dissemblers and fals bretheren , shewing that no watch is sufficient against these , as Psal. 127. and no Enimy so dangerous . Therfor , all day long , hee teacheth to watch and pray to bee defended from them , and Especially from fals companions : which are moste mischeevous & hard to bee avoyded . Thes doth Christ call ravening wolves in sheeps clothing ; that the subdolity of Serpents nor innocencey of dooves can beware of , though the one bee wise , & the other God defendes . This is frameed from the subdolity of the Serpent , that was a lyer and a murtherer from the beginning , Gen. 3. By expressing all the propertyes and partes of knavery , and wickednes , and is the corruption spoken of Psal. 52.53 . Construction . Nun , defective , for the whole defect of the Citty , which hee sheweth : the policy shall bee overthrowen . Hee telleth of his defect . Complaineth unto God : upon the letter and term He , behold , for presence , loe , the open and plain man. Vpon the contrary , hee prayeth God not to conceal himself &c. hee would lodge in the wildernes &c , far enough off : his neer companion that knew his counsell &c. dissimulation , and God that inhabiteth presence : hee that presenteth himself unto God , God will mainteyn him , & the just shall never fleet away &c. Thes all bee kindes of presence , & what neerer , than his great agony , and fear that hee was dayly put in , by them ? And such a lamentable state it is , that hee so damneth to hell , and destruction , and bewaileth . Nah , from Nahah to lament , consider the wordes complaining , and crying out , repeated &c. Exodus . Offer your presents to God : cast your providence upon him &c. your sacrifices of prayer and faith unto him , Hos. 12. your dayly oblation : evening and morning and at noon , like himself . Alway present him , put him in minde , and call on him , for a kinde of presence & sacrifice . Object your faythfullnes & your prayer & offer righteousnes , and hee will sustein and releev you , and you shall never be cast away , nor rejected . Gods Name heer , is the God of peace : by the opposition of the Termes : peace and warr repeated . PSALM LVI . FOxes have holes , and the birdes of heaven have nests : but the sonn of man hath no place to rest his head . Whither shall David fly ? hee is every wher beewrayed , and Saul is at his heeles , driveing him at last into the net , hunting him into his Enimyes handes . Hee that so often , and so sore daunted the Phelists , his sore-est Enimyes : as Ps. 9.10 , 27. must now fly for succour to them . What a case was this ? wher they hold counsell of his fidelity , and seek his life , to suppress him . But in distress , hee is made resolute , by the word of God. Therfor hee is thankfull for his deliverance out of his fear , when hee cryed , and prayeth God to pitty him . The form is from , Gen. 3. I will put Enimity between thee and her , and between thy seed and her seed , hee shall bruse thy head , and thou shall hurt his heel . The strife is , his serpentlike Enimyes are innumerable , and shall never rest afflicting , greeving and tormenting of him , and perpetually strive to oppress him , and dayly contend for the upper hand of him . And shall allwayes watch his heeles , & bee still pryeing at his cours and cariage of his life , to cast him , and destroy him , as Psal. 17. And such is the snakynes of Saul , and viperousnes of the Phelists , for secret mischeeffs , and privy conspiracy against him , beehinde his back , his hunting of him , & lying in wait for him , whithersoever hee goeth : & thus doth the serpent his Enimy , tread upon his heeles , and hurteth his life and letteth his way . How can a mā goe , when his Enimy treds on his heeles ? yet for all this hee is not afrayd , because of his trust in God ( which hee thanketh his word for ) of any thing they can doo unto him . But prayeth God , to beat them away for their molestation . And dash them , and throw them down by his angry countenance , and consider , with what greeff and how often , hee had been forced to fly , and remember it . At which mone , and complaint , and cry unto God , and his faith in him and his word , hee seeth his Enimyes turn back : hee presumeeth then that God is with him , & that with his presence hee hath now broke-en the serpents head , as Psal. 9.48 . by turning his Enimy from his purpose , that made head against him . Thus to make the Enimy to turn head , and the serpent to creep into his hole again , is sayd to break or bruse his head , or frustrate his devises , as Ps. 74. The mystery is seen , by and between the report and bringing again , of thes wordes : In God I put my trust , I fear not , &c. His dayly contention , and his trust in God. The matter is his faith , which hee obteineth by the light & wisdom of the word , & presence of God. That cutteth off the fingers of the wicked , and makeeth them loose their hold , and disappointes them : and continueth moste li●●ly , from Psal. 52.54.55 . and is able to knock his mightyest Enimyes in the head , and confound them . Construction . For Nun , deficient : they seek utterly to devoure him , and to constrein him even out of this life . and used all devises to make him to fall . Mark the doubling of the first wordes . for this hee wisheth their destruction and his own preservation , which hee findeth , and is thankfull . Vau , the second letter , a hook or crook . is for fear , to this is opposed boldnes , faith and confidence , both the letters beeing , Nau , of Navah , to prais , or adorn , Exo● . 15. all which you shall finde in the same repetition : In God I prais his word , &c. Exodus . The Sacrifice heer , is praising of God , which they vowed in Egypt , to perform , after their deliverance . And this he promisseth to pay ; as Ps. 50. for the defeat of his Enimy , and his own preservation , which is upright with the construction also . For his Name Immanuel God with us , Is. 7. If God bee with us , &c. Ro. 8. PSALM LVII . ALexander the Coppersmith did Paul much harm , but the Lord delivered him out of that lions mouth : so David is delivered out of the mouth of Saul , at his request to God , by the protection of Gods word , called the shadow of his wings , as Ps. 36. and his way of loveing kindenes and truthe , fayth and love , which hee counteth a wonderfull worke : and therfor hee extolls his glory over all the world , and with all his instruments , sets out the highth of his love , and faithfullnes of his promiss : the highe tree of the mercyes of God : and among all people and nations is thankfull to him . Neither doo the wicked loos their reward : they lay nets to catch them selves , and digg pitts and fall into them . This Psalme concernes the former by the same form . It is framed from the Enimnity between the serpents seed , and seed of the woman ; the one beeing the seed of warr , and the other of peace . The Serpents and Enimyes of Gods word : sow sedition , strife , emulation , contention , debate and discord : they sow speares , & arrows , & swordes , by back-byteing and gnawing , brawling , quarelling , bitter and cursed speaking , as Ps. 14.53 . never hearkening to the way of peace , but are all for warr , as Ps. 120. and from hence is that fine Metamorphosis of the Poet : wher the Serpents teeth beeing sowen , ther grow up armed men . So biteing language is the seed of armes , and hot and inflameed mouthes , and fals tonges , are weapons of warr . Now the womans seed and the Churches , is nothing but the way of God , which is mercey and love , and truthe , with lips unfeined , as Ps. 17. sowing concord and peace . as Ps. 108. And therfor now , David beeing saveed by God , his hart brings foorth lutes , and harps , and viols , and is all for musicque , and instruments of peace , and is ready to sing , and set foorth his glory , as Ps. 145. that hee may be heard beyond all nations , and his noyse above the cloudes , for his deliv●rance . The Mystery is shewed by thes wordes , and , Gloria in excelsis , reported and repeated . Be thou exalted , O God , above the heavens , and thy glory over all the earth . The Matter is , his faith in the green tree of the merceyes of God , as Ps. 52. and the highth of his love and promiss , as Ps. 89. which is above all reach , and shall bruse the serpents head , as Ps. 56.74 . Construction . Nun defective , devouring is for defection . The devourer is devoured , and the patient preserved . The one waiteth all corruption and falshood , reproch and disgrace , and detraction : according to bothe the letters . Naz , of Nazah , to sprinckle , as a kinde of sprinckling or aspersion . The other waites for Grace and truthe , to defend him , and calleth upon God the high : to glorify him . as Ps. 50. And by his indur●ing and calling on God , how mightyly his glory is exalted . mark the repetition . Zain to hear or conceive , or listen , hee will open the eares , or the daughters of Musicque , Eccl. 12. by his musicque , and make them hear . As by the coactive , for a kinde of hearing . Exodus . His calling upon God in this misery , and his whole relyeing on him : serveth for a sacrifice and a glory to him , as Ps. 50. in thes wordes : I call unto God &c. the Almighty &c. For the Elect , Calamity is shortened , Math. 24. and passeth over , and the righteous are mightyly redeemed . So is Gods Glory the more mightyly advanced , and to bee extolled : the harder the deliverance is . For it is full of grace and truthe , Ioh. 1. in saveing , God giveth both grace and glory , all the good that can bee , for trusting in him , Ps. 84. therfor the same is to be ascribeed to him , in the highest , for the power of it . the Name Elyon , for the extolling , &c. PSALM : LVIII . BEcaus the wicked doo allwayes wrong , in thought word and deed , and miss , and lye in all thinges , Psalm . 1. by reason of their furey and rage , which is deaff to all reason and instruction ; and will no more be pacifyed and perswadeed ( like a spitefull and rageing Enimye ) then a serpent or a lion ; no , not by the wiseest Moderator , from their work of backbiteing and devouring talk : therfor Davids prayer is , that their serpentlike biteing teeth , and their devouring grinders ( the seed of armes ) may be brokeen in pe●cees , as Ps. 3. That their Arrowes of bitter wordes , their endles aimes , as Ps. 64. may bee shunned , as easy as water , and beeing brokeen , they and all their worke miscarry with unripenes , & melt away : that it never com to ●ffect nor see the sunn . That his choler may moste speedyly boil him alive , for his defeat , and the just may be comforted with their revenge , and victory over the wicked : and that men may bee sure and confess , seeing som mens works goe before unto Iudgement , and som mens follow after : that ther is fruit for the just , and ther bee Gods that are Iudges in the earth . This Psalme from , Iob 19. deserveth to bee written with a pen of iron , and carved in stone for Eternity , and drawen with lead that never may goe out . God will judge every deed , sayth Salomon , and bring all a mans life in question , and draw all his actions to judgement , whether they bee good or bad . Therfor David from his enimyes wicked life : and the nature of the Serpent , draweth a condemnation , and out of the experience of his tribulations , cannot but hope for an end of him . And thus hee prayeth according to the curs , as Ps. 109. That seeing hee can neither speak nor judge aright , but all wrong and injury is in his hart and handes , to recompens , as Ps. 5.52.140 . and his minde doth ponder nothing els , and is fals as soon as hee is born , with incorrigible error and malice : hee entreth into this curs and prayer against him , as Ps. 109.140 . as against a murtherer and a temper from the beginning . That all his instruments may bee brokeen , that hee may bee easyly avoyded , that his way may perish , Ps. 1. and himself enter into consumption , as followeth . That his falshood may com to nothing , and melt , and not be able to abide the Sunn , but to bee suppressed for ever : which is the cursed groveling of the wicked in the Ground , never to look up , beeing ashameed of the sunn . And his Enimyes licking of the dust , as Ps. 72. And for his Malice : that as soon as the pot is over , that it may bu●n ; so , that his own rancor may burn him and consume him , as soon as hee is offended . The end is , that the Iust may bee cheered for his victory , even his faith : that his Enimy is ashameed of all his wayes , and hath no fruit or comfort of them : and that ther is fruit and reward for the just , that they are revenge-ed of the wicked , by the judgement of God , that payeth every man according to his work . as Ps. 62. And this from thes wordes of the Curs : Cursed art thou above all creatures , upon thy belly shalt thou goe and dust shalt thou eat all dayes of thy life . Gen. 3. Construction . For Nun defective : hee speaketh of a generall defection in the sinning partes : the tong , the eares , the hart and handes . The tong is tyed from good and so are the eares stopped , for hearing of good , the minde is all buissyed about wrong , and the handes with injury . And all that they pronounce , is nothing but error and falshood . Therfor , that they may be made defect in their pronunciation , by breaking of their teeth and their Iawes : and their arrowes , according to the letter , Heth , to break , Another defection is , in consuming , and another , to bee an abortive , never to bee any thing , or never born . Another , that as soon as they live and have life , they bee tormented , Is. 9. for the two letters Nach for rest , as they be all straying and erring , and will not be instructed : so that they may bee restless . The whole subject is all of wrong . Exodus . Hee dealeth heer upon the privative . The sacrifice and burnt offering of the children of wrathe . for a defect of all righteousnes , to oppose the sacrifice therof , as Psal. 4. Deut. 33. that all wrong dealing may stopp his mouth . For hee concludeeth that ther is a reward of righteousnes , as Rom. 6. Mat. 6. Gen. 4. And as the wicked are wrong in all their actions : so is their end utter destruction , and that by a righteous judgement & revenge upon them , even in the earth . So among the rest , such sac●ifice also they used in the wildernes . Gods , ●amed judges &c. by the first and last wordes , and God , the God of revenge , as Ps. 94. PSALM LIX . VPon thy belly shalt thou goe , and dust shalt thou eat all dayes of thy life . The divill , like a roring lion seeketh to devour all hee can . To this text hee bringeth the strong appetite of the Hethen , to deuour the church of God : and Sauls appetite to the life of David : and thus they goe all upon the belly , like hungry dogs about the town , to satisfy themselves with the lives of the just . Their appetite is sharp , they lye in wait moste secretly , and bable much with their mouthes , they slay him , with proud words behinde his back , Ps. 94. but God sets him before their face , as Ps. 92. and wills them and commands them , not medle with his people that have their trust and confidence in him , and laughs at their secrecy and promisseth ●o preserve him . Against these , hee prayeth God , the Churches Lord and Defendour , ●o quash them , and debase them , and prostrate them , and subject them by his power : to bring them down , and subdue them : and powre them strait along , as durt in the street , as Ps. 18. And that none may hear them , none may take them up , none may saue them , none may pitty them , that they may never rise again to afflict him . And that God would make runagates of them , and vagabundes like Cain , and bring them to the lowest degree , and scatter them as dust before the winde , as Ps. 1.68 . That their state may bee a cursed state . And as pride goeth before the fall : so that by their pride ( like Lucifer ) they may bee takeen and cast down into hell , as accursed ; and that the cursses of their own mouthes , and ill wishes towards him , and proud pursuit of him for his life ; and their bloody mindes : may all com home to themselves , as Ps. 63.64 . and work their own destruction , and consume them . And that God would in this very rage destroy them , wherby they are offended and angry at him : to teach them , that God will bee master and have dominion in Iacob , and in all the world also . And so they may goe like hungry dogs about the town , murmuring and curssing , and beg from door to door : as Ps. 73.109 . and never bee satisfyed . And as hee is bound to sing of the firmnes and strength of Gods promiss , and his loveing kindenes , for his escape and refuge , in his affliction and sore distress : so to his strength and confidence and the God of his mercey , hee will sing in Psalmes for his escape . Construction . For Nun , defective . They seek heer , deprivation of his life that had no defect in him , neither sinn nor trespass , nor iniquity , they beeing both bloody & cursed , which maketh the equity of his salvation and preservation , and their damnation , with utter destruct●on prayed for , that they may like doges never be satisfyed : Is. 56. And let them goe yelling , &c. which wordes bee curiously doubled , to shew want and misery for their greedynes . And from Nat , and Natah , to decline or bring down , Ps. 17. their base life as vagabundes , to buissy them : according to the title : that they hurt him not , though they wait to kill him . Against their streng●h of persecution : hee applyeth Gods strength , the Ark and truth of his word , for his Garison and salvation , which hee observeth . And his kindenes in rewarding , as Ps. 62. Thes wordes com often also , to make them notable . Exodus . Hee intendeth heer , the sacrifice of fooles , that are hasty to vow : as vowes , for the sinn of the mouth , Eccles. 5. Deut. 23. beeing with much pride , and much furey uttered , much swearing , much curssing , much lyeing , and deceiving : and with thes ginnes , hee would haue them taken , and destroyed for their defect . Like the vow of conspiracey , against Paul : Actor . 23. The God of Releeff : for strength and kindnes , repeated . Psal. ●8 . 144 PSALM LX. THe promisses of God doe hold the Church to their faith , and they are sweet , all yea and Amen . And by Gods promiss in the Scripture , they all hold , and live , and are refreshed , because hee is mercyfull in them all , and faithfull to the end . The Church is often sick & diseased , but through faith they are recovered and made whole . The Sicknes of the people of God , is persecution , and famine of the word , and tottering in religion , yet , as long as the fire is not quite out , and faith quite extinguished , and their knowledge of the word , quite decayed : ther is no fear of death . And this is the hope that David hath , when the people of God are even at deathes door , as Ps. 9. even his beloveed , whom hee would so fain have refreshed , healed and released . The wrath of God for sinn causeth all diseases : so hee falleth into an enumeration of them , by the shakeing , cleaving , breaking , and dissolution of the earth . Which is for their infidelity , their strife among themselves , their sedition , muteny , and discord , loosnes and unconstancy ; and because they have been put to much hardnes , and were made giddy , & faint harted , with the cup of their adversity , Ier. 48. and could not tell what to doe : they now , beeing in this Acatastasy , and unsetlednes , and not knowing what to think : hee remembreth by Gods word , what Nations were to com in , and that the world was not quite at an end , with them ; but as the Priests lips preserves knowledge : so they yeld also faith . Therfor , hee prayeth for Gods right hand called his Ministry , their oracle and advise , to save them . From whence they haue this assurance from the word , that God will fall to shareing of the world , and to partition of the Nations , to inlarge the borders of the Church . That Shechem should bee divideed , and Succoth measured . That hee would haue Gilead and Manasses his own . Ephraim should bee confirmed unto him , and Iudah should be written and conveyed . That hee would wash his feet , and take possession in Moab . And put off his shoos , and take his rest in Edom. And triumph , & keep holy day in Phelistia . And out of this promiss , the Church doth hope for victory over all their Enimyes . For this hee thanketh God for their salvation , and prayeth still for his most prosperous help , to tread down the Serpent , as Ps. 92. and vainquish their Enimyes for them , as Ps. 108. Construction . Samek , to uphold : it is heer taken all along , for help and salvation , as Isai. 63. as , O consider , and help &c. and O give us help . And arm thy beloved &c. God sheweth the Assistantes , and the strength of the Church : when it felt all kinde of weakenes , when God stood not to them , but forsook them . Ther is nothing shewed but dissolution and susteyning . And that God is their onely stay . Exodus . From Isa. 34. To kill Gods Enimyes is good service : so that this great slaughter is counted for a sacrifice , as that in Bozra and Edom , according to the title . See Ier. 49. Ezech. 25.35 . Iehovah Nissi , Exod. 17. God , his standard . PSALM . LXI . DAvid haveing fled out of the land for Absolom , and beeing now faint and feeble harted in his old age , and allmoste out of the world also , for greeff of hart , because hee was absent farr from the Church of God : prayeth God , as hee had been his relye and strong tower from the Enimyes , which is the instruction of the Ark : that hee would safe-conduct him by that highe Rock also , the word , as Ps. 27.18 . to his Tabernacle . That ther , hee might now dwell for ever , relyeing under his winges , which is the Cherubs , his Mercey . And as God giveth possession to them that fear him : the Israelites after 40 yeers in the wildernes : so that hee would hearken to his wishes , now after his reigne of 40 yeers : and ad abundance of yeers more unto them : that hee might abide still in the presence of God , preserved by loveing kindenes and truth , his portion , his meat , his Manna . And as Ps. 81. paying hi● vowes , and chaunting his Name for ever . After the Tower , the Ark and mercy seat , Rock and Manna . And seeing by the Scriptures , the way is to pleas God , and get up to his tabernacle , and dwell with him , as Ps. 15. and to obtein the habitation of godlynes , and Mount of holynes , and heighth of sanctification , as in the Psalmes of degrees : which are their shelter and tower of defens , and safety , from the floodes of wicked Enimyes , by the quiet waters of refreshing , flowing from them , Ps. 23. When Davids hart fainted : hee knocketh at this Rock , and prayeth for direction thither , to receiue a heavenly possession , with them that fear God , and length of dayes , and all requests , by the sustenance therof , the way of godlynes ; grace and truthe . Psal. 25. That feeding heerupon , as upon unperishing Manna , hee may bee allwayes preserved by God , to serve him . And this is the spirituall rock of Christ , that followed the Host , and served Israel , and was the Exodus , and Passage , and conveyance of them . 1. Cor , 10. Construction . Samec , is heer taken passively , as Nismac , to rely , or lean upon . As in a feeble estate , by repeating the word rely . And the reckoning up of all his stayes , the rock for a guide , Tabernacle and tower , and cherubs , and kindenes and truthe , for preservation . Aleph for instruction or education , is signifyed by the rock , & tower whose top reacheth to heaven , and is a name exalted so much in all the world , by prayer and prais . Sa , of Nasa , both the letters , to lift up . Exodus . They that fear the Name of God , shall have the possession of all that they long for . then vowes upon condition are due , for hearkening to their wishes : they must make unto God full satisfaction , and pay their vowes : and this serveth for a sacrifice in the wildernes also . as by the doubling of the word vowes . His vow heer is , an everlasting devotion , yf God will give him dayes . As by the termes of eternity , so oft repeated . God , his Rock . 1. Cor. 10. For his susteining . PSALM LXII . ILL Servants marr good children . The subtilty and reach of Ahitophel , Davids counseller , hit upon the pride and vanity of Absolom , his sonn , as Ps. 55. and puffed him up to rebellion , to rob his father of his subjects and kingdom . The matter now beeing at open hostility , and they in counsell agreeing to a murtherous practise upon his person ; for it : yet David by a cleer judgement , faileth not of his faith and trust in God ; nor doubteth of his salvation , as Ps. 42. but is sure of his redeemer , Iob. 19. and that hee shall not bee overthrowen , b●caus they bee lovers of falshood , and dissembling traitors , that seek his life : the Godhead of truth and Iustice ; and the strength of the word , called his rock , beeing the glory of his salvation and relye : and willeth to all his people , that from their hartes they utter the same profession . And seeing the children of men are more fals and light than vanity it self : they should not trust to bee rich or strong , by robbery or oppression , Ps. 17. becaus all strength is Gods , that still prevaileth , and Kindenes , that rewardeth every man aright . which is ; according to his request , Ps. 55. to his Enimyes : half their dayes , by a desperat end to Ahitophel , for miscarrying of his wisdom : and the foolish end of Absolom , for his vain hope . The Church , as it is Catholicque , and also holy : so it doth hold , either by the Law , or by the Promiss . By the Law , it standeth in performance , and that is impossible for the flesh , by reason of weaknes , and sinn , and condemnation and death enter therupon : and the letter killeth , which is the face of the church , but the minde and spirit of God , which quickneth every man unto eternall life , is by the Promiss , which is holy : of things unseen , gracees and mercyes of God , and forgivenes , and a better and an everlasting life , by fayth and hope , and this knoweth no man but the holy spirit of God in man. And thus is faith the rock to build upon , as divers times in the word , wherby hee payeth every man according to his work , and judgeth all men according to their minde . As the minde is conteined in the body : so the Promiss is the soul of the Law , and as wee are forbid to care for the body : so the church is commanded to provide for the soul , to cast them selves upon God , to seek contentment by a gratious government , and let all rudiments goe . And this is his sure rock of victory and of salvation , even his faith . Construction . Heer , Sam●c , is taken passively also , shewing his relye , repose and trust : and the strength of his support , which is God. The weaknes of the p●oples confidence that trust in the vanity of misgotten riches , or in the falshood of Man. Ps. 146. Beth , a house , they thrust hard at him , and set upon him , to overthrow and beat down all his riseing , and his exaltation and dignity of his hous , and to ruine all his repose by falshood . which is a kinde of dwelling of the minde . Sab to compass or inviron , Gods wall about him , which is his kindenes grace & favour , Ps. 21. cannot bee beaten down , it is so strong . And this confidence deceiveth no man , but payeth every man for his travaile . Exodus . Hos. 12. The people play the crafty merchants , in sacrificeing their misgotten welth , and set their mindes wholely therupon for their salvation : wher their faith is reprooved . Beeing in an opposite cours to the sacrifices of righteousnes , Ps. 4. & faith of David , which is counted righteousnes . so hee dealeth by privation . Every one that worketh righteousnes is accepted with God. &c. Marke the repetition of termes concerning all pointes . God , his rock and trust . PSALM LXIII . ASk and you shall receive , and seek and you shall finde , and knock and it shall bee opened unto you . In the Last Psalme , 62. hee sheweth that his life is sought by flaterers and dissembling hypocrites , that use smooth wordes , and have throtes like open graves , and wicked and corrupt thoughtes to devour him , and gape wide to receive him , as Ps. 5. wher hee casteth off his confidence in Man , for vanity : and welth that groweth by wrong , hee counteth nothing worth , to save him : and therfor relyeth wholy upon the strength of the kindenes and mercyes of God. Heer they seek his life with the sword , and hunt him into holes and corners of the earth : and in this , for playing the foxes with him : hee prayeth , that foxes may prey upon them , and baite upon them in the ground , and that hee may bee mery and have good cheer in the hous of God , as Psal. 23 ; and be ravished with his glory , and releeved with the living waters of his mercy , which hee counteth better then life : that hee may bless and prais his Name for ever , and all their treacherous mouthes may bee stopped . That this may bee : hee knocketh at the word of Grace , beeing athirst in the wildernes , for waters of the scripture to refresh him . Which wildernes hee maketh his solitary bed , as often as hee awakes and thinks on him , then to call upon him . That hee himself may rejoyce in God , and all may boast and glory to bee sworn in him . Construction . Samec , again for the function of Godlynes , the work of relyeing , dayly adoration , and admiration of his strength , and glory and commendation , for his grace : as thanks of triumph , after great good cheer of his mercyes ; dayly conversation and comunication with him . Ghimel , for Ghamul , a wainling , as hee was , from all his affections , in the wildernes . Sag , both the letters , to depart , or goe back . This sense shineth through the whole Psalme , beeing contrary to Appetition , longing and adheering , which is the whole tenor therof , Zeph. 1. mark the report of the phrase , Davids seeking of God , and his Enimyes seeking of him . Exodus . The first of Zephany also , shall shew what sacrifice the Lord will somtime have , and what sacrifice is heer ment by the fullnes of the termes , and sense of this psalme , in it : destruction of them that turn from the Lord , and them that seek him not . That they , that play the foxes and betray him , may have a foxes part , in the wildernes , Eze. 13. their trecherous mouthes stopped in the earth , God will have his sacrifice aswell of his own sworn children , that depart from him : as of them that be devoted to other Gods , and have never yet served him . He will serve him self out of all sortes , when he ordeineth a destruction . PSALM LXIV . COnsidering the deadly fear of persecution which David felt , as Psal. 55. the sharpnes and egernes of his Enimyes dayly plots , and secret conspiracy for his life : to kill a just man , without fear , and to compass it suddainly , by means not to be descryed , nor discovered by any eye : by deep prying into his hart and all his wayes , rekoning that none can see them : hee prayeth to bee delivered from this horror . And as Servantes make their quarell , their maisters : so David concluding , that they conspire against God , belyeing him , because hee seeth all their dooings , and giveth warning in the hart , by som passion and light of every action : hee prayeth , that God may give them a just recompens , by this meanes of their own inventiō . That their own reckoning may fall upon them , that their own tonges that belye him , may bee true upon themselves : to strike them sudainly , that they never see the stroke , till it light upon them , and they feel it to destruction . That the very standers-by man perceiue the plain judgement of God upon them , and that the just may rejoyce , and glory in their relying in him . O full of all subtilty , the childe of the Divill , and Enimy of all righteousnes . This is the man hee feareth , this is hee that hee cryeth out upon , to bee defended , and his life to bee preserved from . That hee fall not into his handes : whom hee describeeth by his practise and combination : the secret pryeing and conspiracy against him , and creeping into his bosom to beguile him ; by plotting and consulting against him , as the Hethen doe in the same termes , Ps. 2. This man is above all the Enimyes in the world to bee feared , Ps. 55. This man keeps him company to Church and home , prayes with him , and eates with him , and lernes with him , and holdes with him , as yf hee wear of the same religion , and Diet with him , and all to devour him . What beast or fowl is so wilde , or so vigilant to look to his life , that dayly conversation will not tame and beguile , and in time , secure him ? Against such a one , a man hath need to bee awake , and watch early and late and at noon day , Ps. 55. mischeevous , greevous , hurtfull and moste dangerous men : As great Enimyes , as Satan , and mischevous as the Divill , as subdole as the Serpent , and as holy as an Angel ; to deceiue the Angells , yea yf it were possible , the very Elect. Wherfor all his attributes are given in the contrary sens , as naked for subdole & covered , as Gnarum . which in this Psalme is remembred , Mar , and Rang , bitter and bad , from Merignim . This is the fowler , Ps. 91. And the schoolfellow , Psal. 55. That fetcheth him off , and hee shall never know who hurt him : so all his wayes and words are bitter and distast●full , and cut like a rasor , and are deadly and mortall , because they are fals and deceitfull and damnable . Now because to live in fear of such a one , is a terrible thing : hee complaineth greatly of this terror of an Enimy , and prayeth that hee may not live in fear of such a one , but that God would preserve his life from such a fear ; which fear is expressed , Ps. 55. It is dolorous , and with pangs within one , it is as cruell as death it self , falling upon one , inexorable crueltyes , as of death , a trembling fear , that assailes him , and sets upon him , and befalls him , and buffeteth him , as it did Paul. Hee is overcom with horror . And this is the fear hee prayeth to bee freed of , and the Enimy that hee would have terribly cut off : by his own wayes , and perish by his own traps . That the just and plain meaning men that trust in God : with great joy , may admire and acknowledge his work , and prais him . Construction . Samec , to uphold . Hee sheweth heer the privative therof , and the contrary , by the effect of bad tonges , that by slander , backbiteing , & scandall , overthrow men , as a bad report and an ill name doth hange one . This they doe with boldnes and assurance , artificially and stoutly : which is as a kinde of door , emptines or opening , as for Daleth , the second letter . The contrary heerunto is fear , that hath no comfort or relying . Both the letters make Sod , a secret or counsel , and shew all along so much , by the termes , and phrases , hide snares and serch &c. with the contrary . So all is , secret or pubilique , fear or confidence , susteining or overthrowing . Exodus . In the Law , all Sacrifice must bee found and perfect , and without blemish : or any ill thing , Lev. 22. Deut. 17.15 . heer : the most holy and precious service of the wicked is , the maiming , spotting and staining of all integrity , syncerity , and soundnes of upright and perfect men . And by detraction and defamation , to marr their reputation , even by transcending and mounting up to their thoughtes : their closenes , and deep diveing into the conscience and minde of them . And slaughter of the tong , as Ier. 18. by way of privation , a Sacrifice of wrongs , or Burnt-offering , of dayly consumming greeff , molestation and vexation . PSALM LXV . BEcause God is the onely hearer of prayer , & hath been reconcileed and pacifyed , concerning his flood and inundation , of iniquity and trespasses , as Psal. 32. which overcame him , that all prais and vowes are due to him in Zion : hee inviteeth all the world to set out the happines of that habitation , the Church , and of his Election , and the comfortable substance , that is had from thence for salvation , against the fearfull justice of condemnation ; hee beeing the trust of all the world by his power , the Law : walking upon the seas , and haveing them under his feet , by his unknown steps , and sayling through the Law , Psal. 77.8.47 . &c. setleing kingdoms , putting down the rageing and wicked nations , floodes of iniquity , and delighting them that fear him , with sending his word among them , the River of the Scriptures to water and enrich them , to make them fuitfull : Hee now prayeth God for the farther propagation of the Church under a form of husbandry . That as hee looketh out of the Scriptures upon the earth and it prospereth : so that hee would doo all good husbandry upon the ground , to make it fit for receiving the seed of the word , with mollyfying all hard and savage hartes and wayes of men : and sending showers of grace into them . Then , that hee will bless the begetting , and crown all the growth therof , with goodnes : that his wayes may make the word to flow plentifully in all ignorant countryes , called the wildernes , that they may bee as well sett , as the rest , and triumph as well as the rest together , Ps. 67. Construction . Samec , to uphold or sustein . The kindes of sustenance heer , is forgivenes of sinns , and satiety of grace out of the hous of God , the trust and susteiner of all the world . Who 's indument of strength and might holdeth fast up the hills : and beateth down the seas &c. by this privation . The manner of susteining the erth , is by his dayly and plentifull watering of it : and provideing of Corn , as for the dwellers in it , and plantation . So that Husbundry mainteynes all , as Salomon saith . He , the other letter , signifying behold : is all for presence or absence , in sight or out of sight , or distant and overhealing , and that of divers kindes , as prayer and prays to God. By chuseing and entertaining neerest unto him , &c. Endes and longinquities &c. and make the farthest countryes mea●y Ps. 103. thou lookest &c. on the earth &c. That the erth may be covered with corne and cattell &c. that a man can not see the ground , reconcileing them , and covering of sinns . Love couereth a multitude of sinns : so the Merceyseat , and mans protection is sett over the Law. Because the Iustice therof is so terrible . Accordingly , Seh , both the letters of Nasah , to lift up , or take away , or pardon . Exodus . Ier. 31. and Ps. 50. Lev. 7. you are told what sacrifice hee heer meaneth : to wit , thanks-offering and vowes , for his gratious protection and susteining of him , by his mercyfull goodnes out of his word . Gods gentle audience , forgiveing of sinns , and provideing for food and raiment , is a most mercy full thing , and well deserveth the prais and devotion of all the world ; and therfor this audience and satisfaction was bidden proper in Zion , the place of Gods habitation . PSALM . LXVI . SEeing by fearfull and terrible meanes , and by mighty and strange workes , by the greatnes of his strength in this Law , God hath preserved his Church and subdued his Enimyes : and increased his worship , trying his people by all manner of tentation & troubles : the vigilance of his word , called his eyes , tending them , and saveing them , to a place of refreshing : and with life and rejoiceing in their soules , that hee let not their feet bee mooved ; and overthrew their Enimyes , lest they should vaunt over them : hee willeth all the erth and all nations , to prais their God , and to set out his glorious Name for the same , because hee himself is ready to pay his vowes in the hous of God , haveing obteined the request that hee made in his distress . Construction . Samec , to put upon , or hold up : by the term put so often used upon or under , exalt or putting upon , or lay upon , or ride upon &c. also by submitting pressing , straineing , and bowing down as well as advanceing , ruleing over , high invention , &c. turning up-side-down by his terrible might , as the Sea into dry land &c. Van , a hook or crook : for prayer , for mercy in distress , which was heard and graunted . Sau , as from Savah , from whence is Masveh , a mask . The deepth of the sea shall be discovered , and the dry land shall appeer Gen. 1. and be unmasked . So likewise for trying , and prooving &c. Exodus . Heer bee used all the termes of prays and glory of God , and the calling upon him , that can bee thought on : shouting , singing , chanting , hymning , Psalming , blessing , &c. with the doubling of the termes , prays and glory , to shew of what sort the Sacrifice heer must bee : to wit , according to Ps. 50. praysing and glorifying of God , for deliverance : by way of exaltations , in likenes of burnt-offering & vowes , heer repeated . Not without fine allusion to the manner of offering : for all sacrifices must pass through fire and water , it must bee soundly tryed , and found as pure as silver ( hee that findeth no wickednes in himself shal be heard ) it must be strayned . A man must justify it , and bless it by putting his hand upon the head of the sacrifice . And this is meant by rydeing over our heads &c. commanded . PSALM LXVII . HEer the whole Church prayeth for illumination in the Law of God , called his countenance : that it bee merry and gratious upon them ; that they may bee a light to all the world , and all nations may confess him ; for his justice , and upright Iudgement in guiding his people . And that their own God will bless their labours , that the earth and all the endes therof , bee replenished abundantly with the fear of God. Forgivenes is the way to life , Ps. 65. and faith in the promisses , and merceys of God , which are eternall . The Law cam by Moses , but grace and truthe , by Iesus Christ. Heerby Christ extolled Moses , and setteth him out , and fully commendeth him , to fullfill all righteousnes of him . That by a way that the Iewes took no heed of , hee might bring foorth a celestiall governement , which hee calleth the kingdom of heaven and of God , Ps. 145. The Iewes were apt , in prosperity , to delight , and content themselves with a superficiall study of the Law , and therin to strain out a gnat and stumble at a straw , and bee much buissyed with trifles , as concerning the letter : but this depth , and bottom , and hid wisdom of the Law , as Ps. 51. they skip and runn clean over . They turminate and chew much upon the one , but swallow down the other whole . Regarding small things , but this Iudgement , and fidelity , and love and mercy of God ; the weighty things of the Law , and way of Salvation : they wholely omitt , and call Christ a blasphemer for medling with them : delighting to hear , not at all , nor any whit regarding the faith that commeth by hearing , nor the word of consciēce that is within them , nor obeying the doctrine of their own profession ; but are offended with the restorer therof . Now this is the way , that David in this Psalme , would have all the world to know , by the perfection of the Church of God : which hee supposeth , should purchase in all the world , and easily winn them all . And as the Law setteth all the world to school : that this way may abundantly increase the Church . Therfor the Church prayeth , that the bottom of this light of the Law : kindenes and faithfullnes , faith and love , judgement and mercey , wherby they are well led and rightely governed ; may also lighten the Gentils : that Canaan may serve , and Iaphet , and Sem , and all the world may bee of one religion , and protestation , and fear God with them . And that God will perswade Iapheth to dwell in the tents of Sem. Construction . Samec , to hold or bear up . Heer his countenance , which is his word , beareth up all things , as Heb. 1. The knowledge wherof , maketh a blessed and a sure estate . A right government maketh the earth prosperous and Joyfull . And the blessing of God is all , which heerin , is peace , by the often repetion of the word . Another kinde , for Samec , is to lay hands upon the head , to bless or confirm , &c. Zain , to hear or conceive , is from the Hiphil , or coactive sens , a generall publication and prosperity of the word : in thes words : that all may know it , and confess it , as by the like repetition . Exodus is heer , the sacrifice of thanks and peace-offering , with joy and Triumph : by the term and work of confession and celebration , and prais repeated . which is for all nations to hear and reverence . Ps. 50. also . Le. 7. Isa. 51. they pray for Gods blessing , the word , for their peace , Psalm . 29. that all May sacrifice peace offering for abundance . PSALM LXVIII . BEcaus the virtue of the Ark is such , and of God , that rideth in the Deserts and in the Scriptures , which by his word in the church , is a provident fa●her for the fatherless , and a comfortable husband for the widow , and a good companion for solitary folk , and a Recreator of the restrained , Ps. 144.149 . and a condemner of the rebellious ; for which hee willeth all triumph : and becaus by his showers of sermons from Sinai , that shook the earth , and entred into all mens hartes , releeving with the blessing therof , and confirming them in their wearynes ( 38. yeers ) by the Manna and Quailes , the heavenly food therof : and provideed for all the poor among them , by his word and an army of evangelicall Messengers : that the glory and beames therof dashed the countenances of Kinges , and put them to flight , that they became a prey to women at home in their houses : and that they fell and lay slain on the hills like snow , for resisting the promiss and ordinance of God : not considering his invincible army of Angels , being millions of legions in the church of Sinai : and the infinite number of Spirits of salvation in the Law of God , Ps. 120. by which hee once captiveth all men , and ransometh som , and the rest for their rebellion abide in wrath : for this , his Mercy is above his Iustice , as the Mercy seat and the Cherubs , for reconciliation , and succour , are set over the Ark : for consideration of salvation against all burden and oppression , Now as his Procession and Marching is all moste glorious and orderly , and all escapes of death are the Eternalls , with punishment of all his Enimyes and the heads of them , as Ps. 110. according to his Promiss : Now hee prayeth , the church may finde that strength from God , the Ark his strength , from his temple and Oracles which is promissed , and that which hee hath wrought for his people , that all kings may bring gifts to them , and his enimyes may melt away and flye like smoke : and that ( as in a skant time of weapons in Israel ) hee would drive & chastize all the Kingdomes and people great and small , the whole drove , by the terme● of bulls , and calves , with a reed or quill , and scatter all that delight in warr , that Egypt and Cush may com in , and all Kingdomes of the earth , for the increas of the church , may sing to Gods Name , the Eternall , that rideeth , and is glorious , mounted in the Scriptures , the Ancient Heavens before them : that with a mighty voice in his church doe cry : give all strength to God for his surpassing defens and pride of Israel in the skyes , Psalm . 29.15 . that is terrible in his sanctuary , and strengtheneth his people . Construction . Samec , to uphold or maintein : wherunto is opposeed kindes of perishing . Vpholding is by strength of it , hee makeeth divers kindes , and his virtues ther : God upholdeth as a father , a husband , a comfortable consort alone , a redeemer out of bandes , &c. And all in his church , by his word that susteined his people . And such was the strength and nourishment of them , even preaching . Gods army is of great and invincible strength , and able allwayes to save and recover out of the greatest deep of Misery . As is his preachng so is his order , of admirable strength and virtue , which is useed for tameing of the Nations . The perishing part is vanishing smoke , melting wax , snow , painting pride , flieing , scattering , &c. From Cheth , to prostrate , break and wound , and strewing &c. spreding like snow , &c. The two letters , Sach of Nasach , to overthrow , to be plucked up and destroyed . For the privative , likewise . Exodus . In the same sens , God is eternall and rideth perpetually in the word , wher hee is every wher so highly exalted and praised . And for this stately & everlasting residence hee is worthy . Apo. 4.5.7 . to have all glory , honour and power , and strength &c. ascribeed to him . The sacrifice is of singing and rejoyceing and exaltation of the Name of God for the strength of his salvation , Is. 12.19 . for the setting up of Israel . And the Name , Iah , for Lord , all for strength so oft , and Iehovah , for Elohim El and Adonah , to note the same . for a free will and heave offering , Exod , 35. by skipping and daunceing before the Ark. So liberally is hee mainteyned . The Name of God commeth 26. times , for the Honour of his Name , Iehovah , which letters signify so many just . So God hath the whole fe●ld to him self heer , as Iob. 19. PASLM LXIX . COnsidering the multitude and reprochefullnes that dayly exercise themselves upon him , the miserable case that hee is in , reproche and greeff haveing brokeen his hart for continuance of his troubles , which are termed by all kinde of troublesom wa●ers , that by no meanes , by spending of his voice and his eyes , with calling and looking for help , hee can get out off . And considering the want and distastefullnes , and strangenes of his freendes and acquaintance that hee was quite abashed : compareing his troubled minde , to the affliction of a prisoned man : and considering that this , that is com upon him , is all for his godlynes , and that all is for zeal to Gods hous and service , more then for his sinn , from them : now his prayer is , that it would pleas him , of all kindenes , to deliver him heerof . That it make not an end of him , but that God will leap in to him , and com neer to his soul , and redeem his life : that the rest of the church may not bee abashed at his perishing . And becaus of the trayterousnes and causlesnes of his Enimyes : that their own meat bee made a bait to catch them , and their table-talk , to insnare them ; that they may lye tumbling , and burn in wrath , when they look in the book of God and see his angry countenance . And becaus they still persecute a man in misery , whom God himself hath strooken , and allready slain , for his foolish transgression ; adding strokes unto strokes , wrongfully and beastly : so , that God would add iniquity to their iniquity still , and that they may doo more wrong and more , and never com to doo right : that they may bee cutt off by their own wayes , and never bee recorded with the Iust , nor mentioned in the book of life . That hee may sing a song of Thanks-giveing , a principall sacrifice for his deliverance . That all the whole church may rejoyce in their hartes , that hee will once think upon the poor and imprisoned : and all Creatures may prais him for his care & advauncement of his church , and the inheritance of his seed for ever . Construction . Samec , to uphold . Hee dealeth heer by way of privation , in a contrary sens ; His misery is so great that ther is no support , but hee is sunk over head and eares , and hee hath no good footing to stand upon , or any thing to bear him up , but is quite drowned and overwhelmed . The meanes of his pain , are faultes & folly , from his Enimyes : reproche & depravation for his godlynes , & skoffing at all his profession . Neither would his neerest freends know him , that much daunted and sunk him in his spirit . Hee prayeth for the favour of God and his truthe , to prop him , and suggest him therwith , by hearing and delivering of him . Hee looked for refuge and comforters , but they fayled , and wear eger and distastfull to him . That sunk him also . Therfor that all his Enimyes stay might fayl them . And Gods salvation may exalt and succour the oppressed and greeved , to the comfort of the godly and the just . Tet , for mire or durt , by sticking or sinking , and mire , for declining , wise repeated . as Ps. 9. Set , bothe l●tters , Iehovah , inflected , Iehovih : declineed to shew the same . Exodus . The sacrifice heer is a prais of the Name and calling upon God in distress . Ps. 50. and a Thanks-offering , like the Magnificat of Mary , the mother of Iesus . Lu. 1. better then any declination or double way of the wicked . Hos. 5. And this shall hold up Ierusalem , and Ierusalem : the Saintes for ever . Heerto are these wordes to bee applyed . I will have mercy and not sacrifice . Math. 9. an upholder . And such a sacrifice hee will have in the wildernes also , Exod. &c. Remember still the iteration of termes . to confirm the doctrine . The request is , for Ignominy : Namelessnes and utter Extinction . Mark the declineing of Iehovah , into Iehovih the forme of Elohim , for the God of Hostes , and of Israel , at the beginning of the doctrine . PSALM . LXX . THis Psalme , as it stādeth for a Cadence in the first book , in the end of the 40. after magnifyeing of the prais of God : so heer it serveth for a Cadence ( together with the 71 ) of this book also , and of his prayers , and of the yeeres of his life , to induce his prais 71. That considering now the fleetnes of his life , and that his life is now allmoste spēt : that hee would make great haste to deliver him , that hee might ere hee dye , see all his Enimyes confounded , Ps. 71. and that hee may bee able , even to the last , to set out his prais , and that hee may be found strong therin , when his Enimyes hold him forsaken of God : with request as followeth , 71. Construction . Gnajin , an eye : from the word Gnajin , 1. Sam. 18. to ey one , or invye one , as Saul did David , lyeing in wait for his life , and to hurt him . The contrary is to respect , help and deliver . That they may bee throughly daunted , and their current stopped , that seek to hurt , and delight in ill . And such most mery , and cheer themselves , that seek God , and love and look for his salvation : and therfor , hee prayeth for Gods speedy help and deliverance , as springs run merily that are not stopped . Another sens of Gnayn , or Gnen . The whole is terror , that stoppeth or turneth back : and cheerfullnes by deliverance , and help : and hurt . Marck the iteration , seek , hurt , help , hasten &c. tary , turn back , abashed &c. Exodus . The magnifying of , God , is heer a sacrifice of preaching him , opposed to the wickeds scoffing : in the words O sir &c. Which also is a service of him in the wildernes , as they promissed in Aegypt . PSALM . LXXI . WHeras hee had been bred up all his life time , evē from his birth , in the fear of God , and a right service of him : and was cast wholely upon him from his mothers womb : and was dayly instructed , all his youth in the word : and made a perfect preacher and setter foorth of his righteousnes and salvation hitherto , as Psal. 40. which was his only comfort , and which often revived him , and took him up , when hee was buryed in deep distresses : and which greatly magnifyed him , and that now , his sowre and injurious wrangling Enimyes presume upon the weaknes of his yeeres , for advantage over him ; and now seeing God had all the service of his youth , and because his whole relye is upon him : that hee would not now forsake him in his old age , but turn to him , and direct him , and rescue him from his Enimyes , by his strong rock , his word , which is his whole telye , and dayly buissines of commendation , that they may admire it . That hee may yet prais him farther and farther , for ever , for his singular Iustice. That his mighty arm of salvation might bee shewen by him , to the highest , to all generations to com ; what evills hee hath rid him of , and how hee hath reviveed him , and put down his Enimyes , and clotheed them with shame and reproche of their own forming . That hee may sing of his truthe and faithfullnes upon the harp , with triumphing lips , and his very soul , sing for his redemption , and that his tong may never have don talking of his righteousnes , for confounding his Enimyes , for their proud presumption against him . Construction . Gnajin , or Gnen . An eye as before , from Gnajan . To eye for malice . The contrary hee followeth heer . Reckoning all the saving meanes , and the kindes of helps unto salvation . To wit , his relye & strong waiting , and trust in God , as his rock to dwell in . His hope and his praising of him all his life long . Another sens of gnain is heer , when it meaneth 70 the old age of a man , as Ps. 90. which maketh the repetition of the word , old age , &c. Another presence for assistance , by the doubling , of leaving and forsaking , and turning again and absence , &c. you must understand what occasions also the Enimy taketh for to seek his life , and meanes for it . Aleph , is to teach or be taught , by marking and wi●hstanding of him , &c. Which sheweth his singular education in the word of God , his preaching of righteousnes , another help & meanes might and arme of salvation , Is. 46.49 . to be exalted . Mark the repetition of the termes The manner of salvation , rescueing and saveing , is a resurection , raising of him out of troubles , and bringing to life again , which is his comforting of him , by the purity of the word , the holy Ghost , as Io. 14.15.16 . In the verses , He , behold , & Gnain , an eye , Iehovah is declined to Iehovih , to note : and in Resh , the Chronicle of 490 yeers , also to bee eyed . It beeing an A B C. Psalme also , as La●s . though obscure and close . In the seventh vers , you shall finde the two letters Zain , and Gnain , by addition in the term Gnoz , strength , which is that hee prayeth for , in his old age . But beeing multiply : they make the gratious time of r●demption after captivity or bondage , mark the termes reviveing , raising , comforting : and the three Queris and Ketibhes , of the same forme and sens , all together , to serve for both . Exodus . The sacrifice of Prais , and sermon and righteousnes , the fruit of the lips , as Hebr. 13. Hos. 14. Isa. 57. The sacrifice of righteousnes , Psal. 4. which is without leaven or fals doctrine or wrong dealing , of the Pharises and Saduces , Ma● . 16. because they must not eat leaven in the passover , nor in any of their feastes or offring , Exod. 12. Lev. 2. For the tartnes and sowernes therof . His prayer is to God , his Rock , his Fortress and Rescuer ; as Psal. 18.144 . and all by righteousnes , the definition of Iehovah , his Name . PSALM . LXXII . HAveing hitherto commended the heavenly Iustice , and profound judgement , and wisdom of the Law of God : and the whole way of God , Psal. 25. and the way to peace , Psal. 34.37.97 . David now prayeth that God would bestow the same upon his sonn Salomon , that hee may fully reap peace therby , and that hee may govern so discreetly , that all the world may bee happy by him , and blessed in him . Though his own dayes were full of affliction , and spent in Sorrow : yet hee considereth , ther is fruit of Iustice , as Psal. 58. and that God would reward his travaile in the peace of his sonn , who is sayed , to have never a Satan , Enimye or Adversary in the world : so greatly hee prospered by the wisdom , that God gave him , at his request . And because many things belong to the wisdom of Salomon , and infinite blessings to com from his Iustice : David as a father , prayeth for his sonn ; but the Scope , is more heavenly , for the Church . First , that according to his Name , his peace may never goe out or bee extinguished . That the Iust may grow and flowrish by him , and the Poor bee delivered from oppression , guile and injury , and his Enimyes layed flat along in the dust , as Psal. 59. That hee may deserve presents and gifts and tribute over all the world , and that all nations countryes and Kingdoms may serve him , and admire him , for his mercy to the Poor : and pray for him , and bless him . So that a litle poor feeld of corn , upon a barren hill top , beeing manureed with righteousnes , may bee as heavy in the head as the trees of the forest , & the Cittyes flowrish like grass , for the peace of the people , and growth of the Church . And thus hee concludeeth this book , and Exodus , and the way to peace and rest , and blesseth the moste heavenly God , and his moste glorious Name , for the onely dooer of great works and miracles , wherby hee so shineth , as Ps. 136. by lending him so bewtifull a light in his house , and of the Church against the end of his dayes . Construction . In the second vers , the two letters are doubled , to be thought upon , Gnain , an eye , or to eye , as before , is heer still to regard , or help : which is applyed to the Poor to save him from guile , and injury , and oppression , which hee is moste ●ubject to , The means righteousnes and equity , the instrument Salomon , the end peace , and then prosperity and beatitude , and then honour , and then glory . The clearnes of the estate that hee wisheth , is plainly intimated by the letters Gnajin , eyeing , by the sunn and moon , when it is a shineing estate , free from oppression , delivered and cleered from all cloudynes , the sens of Gnab : both the letters together , for a cloud , or by metaphor , a da●k floor over head , as for Beth , that signifyeth a hous : this word is takeen for a beame , that is an appurtenance , that the armes of his hous and his fame and renown may reach over all the world . Mark all the severall repetitions Is. 60. Exodus . The peace of God is the blessing of God , and it passeth all understanding in the world . Therfor a Peace and thanks-offering is heer the Sacrifice ment . And it is by thes wordes . The Poor when hee shouteth &c. and in the last wordes of glory to the Name of God , and the calling on him , as Psal. 50. and according to the gospell , Glory bee to God on high ; and on earth , peace and good likeing among men . &c. So as the glory of God consisteth in delivering and saveing of the poor : so is hee moste highly blessed , that is an instrument of his salvation . All which , you shall finde moste curiously woven and plotted in this Text. And thus is their sacrifice and service in the wildernes , made acceptable , and to som purpose in the spirit , before God : haveing particularly asscribeed al worthynes , and true worship unto God , that is due unto the lamb , Apoc. 4.5.7 . to wit , all might , and riches , wisdom , thanks , and honour , strength and prais , and glory , for ever and ever . A sacrifice of all Nations , Is. 60. And this way is Salomons Name sett foorth , to continue for ever , because it signifyeth Peace . THE THIRD BOOK . PSALM LXXIII . WHen the wicked doo all manner of wrong , and that they are even clotheed with continuance and custom in it : that they are proud with their worldly prosperity : and that they are so well fed that their eyes can not see ; nor their hartes receive understanding : for their worldly pleasures which they lay unto them : highly disteigning the knowledge of God : and that they have all felicity , welth and peace , and are not plagued at all : to whom , hee thought , belonged all adversity , plague , and sorrow , even to their graves : and that ther should bee no peace to them : and that hee walked with a pure hart , with all innocencey according to instruction , and yet is plagued and hath correction , every morning to his break-fast , and hath no peace in the world : hee feeleth a burning at hart , and pricking in the reines at this , and frets , that hee was almoste confounded with dispaire , for not knowing the reason heerof , which was hard unto him , till hee understood it by the word of God. Then hee calleth Gods people unto him , and promisseth them a sufficient exposition of it , which hee calleth the wringing out plenty of waters , even the Scriptures : shewing that all the standing of the wicked is in slippery placees . They are subject to all traines , snares and intanglements , and are brought to a fearfull end , and utter consumption in a moment . And that their life is but like a dream , that a man doth marr with his wakeing . So vanish they as soon as they bee up , and God holdeth him fast by the right hand , beeing allwayes with him , that hee faile not , and makeeth his correction , his counsell to lead him , that hee may bring him to glory at the last . And for this , hee confesseth that God is good to the pure mindeed of Israel , and all leviticall men , and godly soules , by makeing them happy by the sight of him ; of which hee prooves himself , for that hee hath neither kith nor kinn in all the world , nor any wight in heaven or earth , to delight in but him , and that God is graveen in his very hart , and is his portion for ever . And becaus hee seeth , that all that estrange themselves from God , and goe a whooring from him , following som other worship , God or vanity , in the world , against his commandements ; doo perish and com to naught : hee liketh to bee neer God in his Ministry , evermore telling his messages , and relying in him for ever . which is his priestly devotion , Psal. 16.110 . from the blessing of Levi , Deut. 33. for an Argument of the whole book of Leviticus . Construction . To be good unto &c. and to be brought to Glory , is intimateed by the first and last . The letter , Ghimel , to reward , & to be plagued & touched , for hurtfull , and quite destroyed & wasteed &c. is for the opposite . The pure harted : Math. 5. hee intendeth from the two letters together , Gnog , for a cake : the unleavened , and men of sincere mindes : equivocating the word Lebhabh , a hart , beeing also for Lebhabha , a cake . The contrary is of the wicked : of corrupt and counterfet cariage , and impure thoughtes . Gnajin , to envye or malice , is in the word freat or inflict , &c. as Ps. 37. like or dislike , or despise &c. his hart failed , hee allmost fell , to see their wayes succeed . His hart was levened , and akes , Ex. 12. &c. In vain hee cheered his hart . &c. O Lord thou marrest , thou despisest . &c. their image , becaus it is not like thee , &c. But becaus his hart is according to Gods hart : hee looks for the reward of the pure mindeed . Leviticus . Or in the Hebrew , Vajicra , hee called , or cryed , or preached , the first word of the booke : as the purity and cleanes of the charge of Gods word , requireeth not to think of any worldly generation , or to reckon of any beginning or end : as in that of Meschi zedek , Heb. 7. of Christ , Math. 12. Mark. 3. and from the blessing of Levi , De. 33. so heer his pureity is in playing the preacher , allwayes at Gods hand , to bee imployed in his Messages & his service . Is. 61.62 . Which also toucheth the first and second commandement . Marke all the repetitions . PSALM LXXIV . WHen Prophets bee scant and knowledge vanisheth , it is no wonder yf the calamity bee miserable , and the Church of God , even his own plantation : the soles of his feet , bee now in the snare and caught . As at Nebuchadnezars rifeling of the Temple , and burning of the citty and Synagogues of Ierusalem : and for not takeing heed to their signes , and the counsell of God , that they feel his wrath and suffer all reproche , Ps. 71.89 . without knowing any end therof . Yet because his inheritance is of so great antiquity , and that hee bought his assembly so long agoe : and hath fed them so long , and hath saveed them by so many and sundry deliverances : and so oft and so miraculously , vanquished their Enimyes , and released them : and that hee was Lord and creator of all the boundes and limitations of the earth : the people of God now prayeth , that hee will shew som end of this desolation , as Ps. 14.53 . and limit their unsp●akable misery and distress , and strech out his hand and save them . And that hee would not give away his Church wholely , and the soules of his innocent dooves , to the beastly kingdoms of the heathen , and never more to think upon it : but that hee would look to his covenant , and pluck their feet out of the snare , and defend them from the injury of the darknes of the heathen , and maintein his own quarell : that the Enimy that revile him , grow not too proud , and the poor praisers of his name , goe away with reproche for ever . Construction . Gnaín , an eye or to ey , or look directly upon . To remember , is a kinde of looking upon . And it commeth oft , so look or behold , &c. The contrary is to turn away angry , and forget , and regard not , all doubled words . Daleth , the day light and the Sunn , for the meanes of sight and pleasure of the eye : Gnen , for aspect , and for fountaines and rivers : Daleth , a door , for the doores and light of heaven , or the opening of the understanding , Mat. 3. If. 11. both the letters spell , Gnad , untill or unto : for the Termini , or reaching , from one thing to another , a quo ad quem , &c. And of this sort , is day and night , sommer and winter , &c. for seasons or signes , which shall never ceas . Gen. 1.9 . The limitation is by 400 , in the words , Ribhah , Ribheka , as Ps. 43.119 . R. or 34.25 . by the doubling of the word Tsorareka , thy besiegers , for 490 , &c. Mark Chajath , in a contrary sens , and the wordes remember and forget , and signes , &c. repeated . How long , &c. Gned , eternity , by the oft repeating of Netsach , the continuation till when , &c. Gnadhab , to indue , for assembly , by all kindes and termes of the Church . Sheep of thy pasture , shaft or tribe or rod of inheritance , the hill of Sion , holynes , Synagogue , Sanctuary , Tabernacle , congregation , &c. The indument and habit of the Church , is the praysing of the name of God : and the roring and blasphemy of the Enimy , the contrary . For privation , which is the summ . And again , Gnad , for spoil , for the doubling of the outrage of the Enimy , in their ransacking of it . Salvation were the walles , and the gates are prais , now turned all to havok and reproche . Leviticus . Ther is a new Citty , or a new civility , which is the word of God , whose walles are salvation , and her Gates are prais . Heerby , God hath shewed himself a saveing King in the midst of all the world , by dividing it by his Ministry , which is his strength , and passing through , as through a sea , Exod. 14. Ezech. 47. And makeing it as cleer as glass , Apoc. 4. wher the heades of the Arc-enimyes are broken in peeces , and the great devouring fishes of the Sea , brought to land and devoured . Preachers break up the fountaines of the word , that rivers of doctrine flow : they discover the depth , & shew the bottom of mighty rivers . Mark the iteration of the words , the affectation and prosecution of them , and you shall plainly see the intendement . The Synagogue and place of exercise , preaching and invocation destroyed . PSALM LXXV . FOr the revelation of the mystryes of godlynes , and propinquitye of Gods word , called his Name , which is the inward and harty understanding therof , in person of the church . And becaus hee hath had time to attein to a perfit judgement therin , and to discern what mould every man is made of , and the frailty therof , and is cunning in his workes and wayes , and all his ends : and that all the people in the world bee but melting pillars of earth ; and vainglorious and wicked men , that aim at highe preferment : hee assureeth them , that stand they never so stiff , and look they never so high , one way or another , or farr off : they add nothing to their stature , Ps. 83. but that it is God that knoweth their size , that advanceeth or abaseeth all men , according to their understanding . And becaus in the hand of the Eternall , are the Scriptures , called a vessel full of sparkling and seething wine , with the spirit therof , which hee draweth out , and propoundeth : and that the wicked drinck but the litterall dregs therof , as Ps. 11. and are of a muddy understanding : hee sheweth that hee will tell , and sing the same , in psalmes perpetually , to the God of Iacob . That hee may , by this doctrine , cutt off the loftynes and vain glory of the wicked ; called his hornes , the image and power of oppression . Dan. 2.8 . That the Iust may the better shine , and bee highly glorifyed . Construction . Gnajín , an eye : from Gnaian to set eyes or affections on , for high looks , and strange projects for preferment and glory ; for seeking it east and west , and all the wilde world over . He , the second letter , to behold : Lo heer or ther , to thank or confess , thy name is nigh , they declare thy miracles , &c. I will tell to the God of Iacob , &c. to draw out , and wring out , &c. which is to bring hid things to light , or in presence , or to shew or vaunt , or to sweep them away , as by the two letters : from Jagnah , to sweep , Is. 28. for the contrary . And this kinde of sweeping , is the cutting off of the hornes and glory of the wicked , &c. hee exalteth , &c. the doubling of Hee , is a pointing , &c. Leviticus . The sermon is , that God and his word doth all , and that is ever present , and neer , that hee doth measure us , and weigh us , and condemn us , putteth down , and setteth up . Da. 2. from Is. 28. Wher Iudgement is layed to the rule , and righteousnes to the balance , &c. By these wordes , I measure , &c. God is hee that ●udgeeth , &c. by resembling of the scales and balances , high and low , &c. Besides , hee hath his cup of condemnation , to sweep away the wicked , by preaching it unto them . The effect of all is discretion , and demonstration . That a true light of all , and not a vain or proud conceit , promoteeth . PSALM LXXVI . GOD is moste famous in Iudah and Israel , and especially-ly in Zion and Ierusalem , wher hee dwelleth ; for discomfiting the Kings of Canaan , called the devouring hills ; utterly destroying them in his anger , for their Malice to the Church and the Promiss , as Ps. 2. rebukeing them and their forcees , with an eternall sleep , astonishment and stupidity , with his angry presence , and his Iudgement , proclaimed out of the Scriptures , called the heavens ; when hee riseeth to save his poor people , the church , and to set them in quiet . Now seeing Gods anger , and malice so kindled in them , doth make him so famous , by so horrible destruction : hee prayeth to indue them with the rest of his choler , to make an end of his Enimyes . And willeth his church to pay their vowes to their God , and to keep promiss and covenant with him : and that they doo gratifye the Eternall for his terror , that so faythfull-ly , and so terriblely , confounded the spirit and wits of Kinges and Princees ; cropping highe trees and Kingdoms , for them , to performe his Promiss , Gen. 12. &c. as Ps. 2. Whence this psalme is formed , which sheweth , that that psalme , together with the first , hath his authority from the beginning of the booke , and is a Narration to the whole Pile , and is no later work . Construction . Gnajin an eye , or prospect , as the word of God hath out of Ierusalem and Zion , and hee is admirable for his Name ther. A contrary property of the eye , is sleep : they slept their sleep , &c. Bothe chariot and hors were in a swef● , &c. that he is more eminent , and more in sight , then any savage mountain or promontory whatsoever . Thou appeerest greater , &c. thou art very terrible , &c. even as a lion , Amos 3. Vau , the second letter , for a hook or crook , betokeneth feat . Their weapons fell out of their handes , and they could not hold them for feare . Feare of the Iudgement of God pulleth them back . As a lion is terrible in his sight and voice : so is God terrible in rebuke and anger , & wrath , &c. and crosseth all projects , & stoppeth and perverteth the wayes of men . La. 3. By both the letters , Gnav , from Gnavah , to cross . or pervert or marr . Leviticus . The Scriptures and preaching of the word of God , make the handes of the wicked to shake , it dauntes their courage , and taketh down the stoutest , to save and help the poor in Zion . Hee is cheeffly honoured , where hee hath don most for his people : hee requireeth his ministers office with diligence , for this favour , in these wordes : yee that be about him , &c. to bee allwayes mindefull of his benefits , and with great devotion to serv him . The whole is fear and terror . Gods Name is a lion in Iudah . Gen. 49. Amo. 3. Apo. 5. PSALM . LXXVII . THinking upon the dayes of old , as Ps. 143. and the yeeres of the right hand of the moste highe , which is the time that Israel was burdened in distress , and in sore affliction , and was wonderfully and mightyly redeemed , and miraculously saveed and delivered , as Ps. 114. by their cryeing and complaining unto God , their Saviour in their distress : Seeing now hee cryeth moste incessantly in his distress , and will never leave calling , nor bee pacified , haveing been long therin without attendance , stretching out his unweeryed handes , with an uncomforted soule , crying himself out of breath , stareing with his eyes , and amased , Ps. 17. that hee knoweth not what to say , at the long suffering and tarying of the Eternall , his God : but wondereth at his highe displeasure , whether in his anger , hee hath forgotten his promiss , of Grace and loveing kindenes , or hath sealed and stopped up all his mercyes , with anger : so considering Gods mighty redemption of the church , when they cryed ; by his walking on the waters and pathes in the seas : Psal. 8.65 . hee wondereth hee is not heard . Construction . Gnajin , an eye , or sight . I sought , &c. by all meanes my hand was stretched out , &c. thy way , &c. 1. Sam. 1. heerto hee alludeeth , in things in sight , and things out of sight , the sight of the eye , myne eye-watches , &c. the waters , seas , &c. to remember and call to minde , sight of the minde , soul , hart , spirit , &c. for a kinde of seeing , turning away , and forgetting , and Meteors , &c. lightnings , &c. as Chronicles , by the term world , generation , ever , never more . &c. Zain , to hear : by compulsion , of a continuall voice , by all kinde of meanes , in a hiphil or coactive sens , by force of sound , as touching his prayer , and also the Elements . As the eares bee daughters of musicque : so his songs , and meditations and his talke and commemoration in the night , are to open his eares . Concerning both the letters , they signify 77. the limites of Iudgement , of condemnation , wrath and revenge ; which is the boundes of Chronicles seven fold , and seventy fold vengeance . And that now Mercy was to bee looked for ; after such an expiration . And the same letters spell , Gnaz , strength : for Gods unspeakable Acts , don by his Arm and right hand : his Ministry . mark the doubling of the generall and speciall . that is all kindes and propertyes whatsover . Leviticus . Thy way is in thy Sanctuary , &c. and thy way is in the Sea. and in the great waters of the Scriptures , &c. and becaus thy steps are hard to finde : it is to be preached by the Ministry , for conducting of the people , as it was by Moses and Aaron . that mercy and truth bee all wayes set before them , which is the way of God , Ps. 25. And the fidelity of Gods promiss , and covenant by which his people live . In this Psalme the term Iehovah , is not used at all , but Adona , and El : to express power and dominion , accordingly . So doo the Teachers becom Rulers : as the Levites had charge of the Ark and word of God , and the regularity therof , that mighty strength . PSALM LXXVIII . EPhraim by Idolatry started from the Church , and rebelled in Ieroboam , that Hosea sheweth , which is the parable of this Psalme : pointing out by this , all the stubbornes and perversnes of Israel , and faithfullnes of the Church : and their often temptations and revoltings . How they continually vexed and angered God : that at the last , notwithstanding all his compassion and reconciliation , hee destroyed and cast them off in Shilo , as Ps. 132. and refuseed Ephraim , and chose Sion for to dwell at , and chose the tribe of Iudah for his inheritance , and out of it , his servant David to feed them , as Ps. 108. So seeing every transgression hath just recompense : Hee recounteth all from Aegypt to David , and willeth the Church to bee warned by the example of Ephraim , who for shooting aside , and refuseing of God ; was soon rejected by God : and this is the sum of all Hosea , and the doctrine of this parable . Construction . Gnajin , or Gnen , the letter for 70 , as for an age , or generation , which is seventy yeers , by the term Dor , so often doubled . Gnaijn , or Gnen , the word : for an eye , or look : as for parables or ridles : which are to the eye : to look unto ; or seeming truthes . And after the manner of truthes , when they bee revealed . Heerto belong great wonders , secrets , miracles and mystryes of the Scriptures . The Sea , the cloud , the fire of the Law , Deut. 33. The rock , and bread , and flesh , 1. Cor. 10. Ioh. 6. Math. 16. see : hee clave the sea , &c. hee clave the rocks : mark all the repetition of the words , rock &c. when hard and cloudy , dark and hid sayings are brought to light , and to a heavenly sense , as Gnen , for fountaine and rivers of doctrine broken up . So likewise , concerning the plagues , hee sent ill generations , and ill kindes of men , and angry occasions , Ps. 105. for a destruction . Apo. 21.16 . Ch●th , the other letter , for Fear ; bringeth-in all the terrible things of God : fire and sword , and all plagues for tempting angring of him , for not keepeing his way : baptizeing with the holy Ghost , and with fire , Mat. 3. Marc. 1. Luc. 3. Ioh. 1. and firey judgement of the Law. And mercy also , faith and confidence , &c hope in the promiss , and dispaire . Hee smote the Enimyes of the Church for the Church , and the Church , for themselves and their own misbeleeff . Leviticus . David beeing now Pastor and leader of the people of God , maketh all , the opening of the Scriptures : the releeff and redemption of the Godly , & the plaguing and damning of unbeleevers . Which is the work of the preacher . His calling was from God , and hee gave himself to the service of him . God his own elect , Ps. 89. For interpretation of parables and all hard things and figures , Iob. 33. Is. 43. Proverb . 1. Hab. 2. as good Rulers are bread and water to the people . Is. 3. PSALM . LXXIX . THe Church considering the miserable and hard estate that they are in : their siege , their desolation and captivity , as Psal. 74. And shewing all the abusees of the heathen , with a sore complaint against them ; for entring Gods proper inheritance , counfounding all service , and prophancing all the civility and statelynes of Ierusalem , contrary to his ordinances : and makeing havok of the blood of his moste deer and pretious servants , and carion of all their gratious personages : and bringing all their pretious lives into reproche with their neighbours ; and th●nking that they have felt enough of his wrath , considering their calling upon him , and dayly service of him : they now pray , that hee will turn his hand to the heathen , and destroy them that have thus consumeed the Church , and bee blasphemers of his Name : and that for ●he ancient glory of his Name , hee would not think upon their iniquityes any farther , but speedyly , to let them see his mercey , and his reconciliation for their sinnes , for his Name sake . And the end is , that the Heathen may bee disappointed of their glory , & Gods just revenge of his servants may appeer in might : by hearing the prisoners groneing , and redeeming their captivity , and multiplyeing of their reproche , of him and his servantes , many fold into their own bosoms : even seven times seventy for the seventy yeeres captivity , 490 yeers , taught in A B C , of Psalme 25 , by the letters T s , r , r , to consume the oppressours and bring finall redemption , that Gods people may set foorth his prais for ever . Dan. 1.9 . Construction . The letter Gnajin , for 70 , implyeth the 70 yeers captivity of Babylon , that great reproche of the Church , which to be seven times multiplied , for judgement and vengeance upon the Enimyes , make 490 yeers . And Gods merceyes are according therunto , Ps. 119. R , Gnajin , the word , for an eye or sight , is for the appeerance and presence therof , for the glory of God , and his name sake . The two letters , Gnat , from Gnit , or Gnatah , to cover or object : as love covereth sinnes , by reconciliation , and the grave , bodyes , which be kindes of covering , as reproches are for opprobrious , & ignominious , and abominable Objects . Leviticus . God is Pastor and shepheard , Psal. 15.80 . Ioh. 10. when his Ministry is stain , and his Church defiled , & his lerned inheritance layed waste , and all their preaching and teaching becom a laughing stock : &c. His people and sheep pray for his mercey , and redemption , to glorify himself in the salvation of them , by his mighty Arme , in this time of desolation , that they may prais him . Because all vengeance and mercy is Gods. PSALM LXXX . IN the marching of Israel towards Canaan , and their camping , the whole host was divideed ( in warlike manner ) into fower squadrons , three tribes to every squadron : three before , eastward , and three upon either side , and three behinde : this three was Ephraim , Benjamin , and Manasse . Within thes squadrous , was left large room , for petty squadrons , of Priests and Levites , ordered in like manner : haveing their severall chargees , and several offices about the Tabernacle , which they garded accordingly . Now within the tabernacle , was the Ark , and upon it , the mercy seat , and over it , the Cherub wings ; the figure of their protector : in the Ark was the Law , and in it the strength of Israel , which for the justice , beeing the Godhead and protection of Israel : hee prayeth to the God of warr , for the shineing out , and for the rouseing the strong defense therof , to save them , in their lamentable Misery and desolation , as hee now walked before Ephraim , Benjamin and Manasses . That notwithstanding , now the whole Church lyeth waste , and the hedgees of the Law are broken , and they are a mockery to their Enimyes : the transplanted vine of Ioseph , troden under foot and devoured , by the swineish and beastly Hethen , as Psal. 74. and 79. and left accursed : and Ephraim the sonn of his right hand , is scorched with this chideing countenance , for transgression ; yet because of his blessing of them , with his right hand , they pray God that the shining of God and of the Law may guide him . That from heaven , hee would look out som mercy upon the work of his own handes , revive them and raise them again , out of their thralldom and captivity , hee beeing the sonn of his right hand , & confirm them , root them well and save them . That they may not turn back from him , as Ps. 14.53 . but seek him and call upon him , to save them , haveing been long as dead men in the true service of him . Construction . The letter Pe , is 80. The word Pe , signifyeth a mouth : and heer to , hee bringeth eating and feeding , Kal , and Hiphil , active and coactive . The swine devoure , &c. God is sheephard and feeder . Hee feedeth with weeping and teares &c. hee prayeth to bee fed , with the cleer light of the Law , called his countenance , for a kinde of feeding to salvation , and to be turned and wended by the word , like sheep . Conduct us , and guide us &c. mark the repetition . To quicken , by calling upon him . These bee the two meates , adversity , and salvation , &c. Leviticus . That hee would look upon the Church , the vine . God is heer sheep heard , Pastor and feeder , and conducter of them , &c. by the fire light of the Law of the Church , beeing scorched with his smokeing wrath : Gods firy and Angry look , & strife and scoffing & chideing countenance , and fumeing against their prayer , which burneth or eateth , Is. 33. For the fire and cloud and lightning : hee is prayed to shine out by clearnes of truthe and mercy , and look upon it and save it , because his right hand , the Ministry , in Ioseph and Ephraim , Gen. 49 and the tribe whom hee had tyed to his service , hath planted it . And lay his hand upon the Ministry , and bless al the labourers in the Church . Mark the doubling of thes wordes , Sonn for the Church , Psal. 2. right hand , confirm , &c. vine &c. That they may be quickened by hearing , and riviveed , by calling upon the Name of God. That they may profit and goe forward , and not fall back from him . PSALM . LXXXI . THat they should lay no fault upon God , this Psalme concludeeth the justice of the desolation in all the former Psalmes . Every state hath proper ordinance of conservation , which failing , all the constitution soon commeth to ruine . The whole strength and stay was the Law of God , and his service , which when they failed to doo , & fell to strange service : God was no farther tyed by promiss nor covenant , to defend them . Moste solemn Anthemes and Choralls , must perpetually bee sung , by the Church , to this strength , in their Passovers , and feastes of unleavened bread , and new moones , &c. for their sweet redemption from their sore burdens , and sower travail of affliction , in Aegypt : beeing delivered from a corrupt and slavish bondage , to a glorious liberty of the service of God. At their sore cry and request , hee released them , and susteyned them , that they might onely serve him : which yf they had don , and kept themselves wholely to him , unspotted ; and chaste , and undefileed with Idolatry : as hee answered all their hard questions , and temptations , at meribah , and by thundring Sermons , opened the Scriptures in Sina : as Ps. 61.68 . so whatsoever sweet thing they had asked farther ; hee would had given them their mouthes and their bellye 's full of satisfaction ; as the destruction of all their Enimyes , plenty and perpetuity of their estate , and had fed them with milk and hony . But they would not hearken to his voice , nor bee ruleed by his word , and would none of him , but follow other Gods , what they thought good in their own hartes : therfor are they justly left off , and thus tormented , and let goe to destruction . This from the first and second commandement . Construction . Pe , a mouth : the mouth was fed and satisfied : when they cried in Aegypt , and God heard them , their lips for mouth . He will fill their mouth he will feed him deintily with doctrine , and give him all his longing . By sweet words , and cleer interpretation , and sermons , and Iudgements , and sentences , sweeter then hony , Psal. 19. Aleph , to learne , or instruct , yf so bee they will heare and bee instructed , and not forsake their religion ; but they would not hearken not bee instructed , but erred in their harts , Psal. 95. and that was destruction to them . A soft answer putteth away strife . Gods word contenteth the soul , as meat is for the belly . Thunder , and Meribah , and Voice , and Tower , and Rock , and release , & Victory , agree for answer and satisfaction . Mark the wordes repeated , strange God , &c. hear , hearken , walk , &c. Testimony , protest , all asking and fullfilling , & triumphing , and the work of the mouth . Leviticus . The lips of the Priests preserv knowledge : so prais is the fruit of the lips , open my mouth , &c. Ps. 51.71 . This was an ordinance , and an Act and duty , for the Ministry , in the remembrance of their redemption and deliverance . Num. 10. See the divers writeing : of Ioseph , in the 80. And in this , Iehoseph , to shew , that Ioseph added much to the Church , as Act. 2. at the preaching of Peter . Mark the blessing of Ioseph , Gen. 49. Deut. 33. his strength and sweetnes , the stone of Israel and Rock of the Church . And sheepheard , and feeder , and teacher , and Nazarit , and separate , and consecrate of his bretheren , &c. PSALM LXXXII . VNtill Iniquity bee com to the full , Estates com not to finall ruine : Iniquity commeth not to the full , till Iudgement bee lost , and knowledge and syncerity decayed ; for heerby was the world made ; and stedfastnes of all estates . This word was committed , unto the Angels , the Priests and ministers , to be preserved in their lips , and worn in and upon their harts ; for the continuall succour and estate of Gods people : also to anoynt Kings and Iudges of the Earth , who for the Mi●istration heerof , from God , were termed Gods , and the Children and the sonns of God. Now seeing all justice is for the Poor , and all succour is ordeyned for them that bee comforttless and oppressed : aud seeing in the church , even in the presence of God that judgeth them ; they favour the wicked ones , and by wrong Iudgement , leave the poor in their handes , and this for want of judgement and understanding , which shaketh all : that they take the Name of God in vain : wherfor they shall loos their Names , their placees , and their immortall state of knowledge , and fall from heaven , to the ordinary estate and end of humane Princees , and comun men ; and all for Ignorance or Partiality . Hee at last appealeth and prayeth , that God himself will now arise , and doo the earth justice , and judge his inheritance in all Nations . and this according to the third Commandement . Construction . Lev. 19. In petaroth , Quedoshim : that is holy , or holy ones , &c. Pro. 31. for Pe , a mouth , for the sentence of the Iudge , and cry of the poor : and as you may see by the harping upon the words , just , judge , God , deliver , poor , &c. for Iustice feedeth the poor by rele●ving them . And wher just and right judgement faileth by ignorance : all houses , and buildings , foundations , and ground works shake , and ther is an earthquake and tottering of all instruction and edification . And that is according to the letter Beth , a hous . And all government shall fall to ground . Leviticus . Shall not the judge of all the world doo right ? so hee appealeth , when the Church and Ministry are without knowledge , and unjust : for the iniquity of judgement among the Gods and Ministers of the Church , for foolish and pervers judgement , to the moste upright God himself , that well knoweth , and rightly weighes all ; and all from the first and last wordes . Gods is the Archbishop and cheeff Pastor and Prelat : to ●ondemne the leaders and Princees of the Levites , by the words cheeff , and Prin●● , answering one the other , Nitsabh , and Sar. PSALM LXXXIII . THey that bee born after the flesh , still persecute them that are born of the spirit . Because of the ill will of thes mixt and impure Nations , at Zion : and their particular and spitefull quarells against Ierusalem : as Edom and Amalek , for birth-●ight : the Ismaelites for bondage , and Moab and Ammon , and Amalek : For bastardize . whch allwayes grudgeing , or beeing grudgeed of them , or accurssed : with Phelistia , Tyre and Ashur , that joyned with them : they grow stout and presumptions of their great strength . They draw to counsell and ●onsult against Iehoshaphat and the Church of God , 2 Cro. 1.20 . How to cutt off their Nation , with their noble and famous memory for ever . And make a league and combine themselves by covenant against God , and for the abolishing of his Name for ever , as Psal. 48. The Churches prayer now is , that God will not be silent or sit still at this . But because they keep not holy-day : that hee would bestirr himself , against them likewise . And handle them , as hee dealt with the Midianites , for the like attempt and presumption ; and handle their Princees , and choise Men , as hee handled theirs . That they may flye like chaff before the winde , hee pursueing them with flames , of Terror of his tempestuous wrath : and while men seek the Name of the Eternall , it may scorch their faces , & turne them about again , like a whirlwinde . That for their noyse & highe looks , as Ps. 75. it may still them & abase them , ●onfound them , and destroy them for ever . Psal. 48. 2. Cro. 20. To teach them , that ther is no such soveraignty nor Majesty in all the world , as is the Eternall , and his name , the seeking of him , and calling on him . See likewise numbers , 22.23.24 . wher these same Nations were kindled against it . Construction . Pe , a mouth . That hee bee not silent , the Enimyes rore &c , consult and compact together , &c. That they be concealed or cut off &c. that ther bee no more mentiō made of them . The fire burneth , so the wrath of God , is a kinde of burning and an eating or consumeing fire , and his terror , a scorching . Ghímel , for reward , or recompens , or revenge , by comparison or example : as to such and such , or so and so , put their Princes and elect , like such and such , &c. that sought the like . Both the letters are spelt Fag , from Fug : remiss , or slack . That Gods terror slackens the counsel and bent of the wicked , by abashing and confounding of them . As not to remitt , intermit , or pardon , as in the first wordes . Mark the words of silence , and utterance , the wordes of fire work , and all kinde of windes , and of terror , and confusion . And princes and Name &c. doubled . confuteing of adversaryes , by sermons on the Sabbath . Leviticus . Princes and sacred ones , the protected and Elect , for Pastors and sheepheards , as Mich. 5. By doubling of the wordes and kinds , and also the phrases and affixes &c. to bee noteed . The fire work and the windes , for the Angels and Ministry , and the seekers of the name of God , &c. as Psal. 104. Heb. 1.10 . Exod. 3. For the firey and terrible judgement , pronounced and preached out of the word , Is. 66. for a confutation by the Anoynted and hidden ones , so God is judge . And for the Enimyes making , and takeing head , by crafty counsel behinde their backs , the terror of the word by the Ministers , shall all-to-crush them with bashfullnes , & confound them , Gen. 3. How terrible a thing is it , when the word of God is right against us , and bloweth in our faces . Mark the doubling of the wordes , for reward . PSALM LXXXIV . THis Psalme groweth upon the occasion of the former . Seeing Iehoshaphat was delivered from that mischeevous plott , and invinceible strength of thes nations that besiegeed , by prayer & trust in God , when hee was past all hope of secureity , by himself or his people , and in that distress that he knew not what to doo : & seeing together with their defense , God rained blessings of strength , and riches upon them , in Baca or b●rachah , of the vally of Iehosaphat , by Gods judgement , Ioel. 3. which confusion of language , is usuall as Num. 26. For Shephuphim , Shuphim , likewise for Sharbet , shebet , for Darmeshek , Dammeshek , &c. Hee first admireeth the person of God , for his warlikenes , secondly , the lovelynes of his dwellings , for the succour they yeeld to the distressed . And thirdly , the happynes of all that serve him , trust in him , and are present with him , for their defens from him . And for this , hee would so faigne bee like the birds , in and about the Temple , allwayes praising of him , shewing , that yf they well consider the face of the Church , called the Anoynted , now after deliverance : they shall see , that one dayes service in the hous of God , and his courtes , is more worth then a thousand , yea then all ones life , in the Tentes and conversation of the wicked : Seeing from hence is light and defense , from hence is glory and Grace , as Psal. 144. and from hence is all goodnes , to just and upright men .

IT is observed by the Church , that all their captivityes and distresses proceed from the wrath of God : for their heighth of iniquity , extreame offenses , perversnes and sinn against him . And that hee is wont to pardon all , and to bee reconcileed unto them , upon their turning again unto him , with confession , renewing of their mindes , and amendment . And that hee hath so good a likeing to his country , as still to bring them home again unto it , after som correction of them , and their sorrow to repentance , to prais him . Now considering the tediousnes of this last captivity , by Babel , that in a whole generation they felt no life in them , nor token of salvation , for the fiercenes of Gods anger upon them : their prayer is , that hee will now shew such kindenes unto them , as to give to all sortes of them , a more dureabl● peace then before , and that his salvation , now bee not long withholden from them that fear him . And for the flowerishing & glory of their land : that fayth and love may procure such heavenly Iustice as may set them in the way of peace , that they never err again .

That the reader should not misse , but have an eye thither , to mark the starr of his redemption , and line of Gods Iustice and judgement , which is seven fold the misery that they inflict upon the just , and Gods vengeance and revenge upon the wicked , and his payment of them , to bring the Poor , their hopes of inheritance , and peace eternall , with all plenty and delight , with it : by an utter rooting out of the wicked for ever , as Ps. 37. And this is all for his kindenes and faith toward the Poor and distressed , which hee calleth his way , which also is his work , which together is wonderfull : that ther is none the like nor any God like him . This way ( with many just reasons to be heard ) hee prayeth to bee taught , and his hart to bee sharpened , that hee may walk by the word of truth , in the fear of his name , to publish and glorify him for ever , for his great deliverance by it , as Ps. 88. That when many proud and terrible Tyrants , which set not God nor his Law before them , seek his life : that God in the Kingdom of his compassion and kindenes , would pitty them , and bestow upon him his strength , which is his Law , and therby save the childe of the Church , called the sonn of his hand maid , and to shew som signe of this good unto him ; that the highe and fearfull looking men , may bee abashed and abased , when they see , that God doth take his part , against them .

THer is no such mother as the Church of God , nor any parentage like unto God his word : ther is no such Church as Ierusalem and Sion , from whence the word of God and the Law issueth : that the gates ( the goeings in and out ) of Sion , are better beloved with the everlasting , then all the dwellings or cittyes of Iacob , or the Church elswhere beside . For , when other cit●yes are mentioned , & that this man or that man was born in them : of Sion , it is sayed more , that this man was born in her , in that , which the most high built and established . And when hee writeeth up his people , hee will not leave out the place , of their birth , that were born there , because of the excellent springs of musique that are in it . And this commendeth the Childe of the Church , and expoundeth the sonn of the hand maide in the former Psalme ; to shew the pretiousnes of the children of God , the deernes of his servantes blood , and the worthynes of their redemption .

BEeing now in the Cadence and conclusion of this book , and service also , which is the proper place of praising and gloryfying of the name of God , that in this Psalme , by true cours , nothing els c●n bee expected , but commendation and prais of the Everlasting ; for his great works of love and kindenes towards them : Now by the languishing of the Church , and their oppression in long captivity , the Estate beeing altered , the Memory and glory of Ierusalem dyeing and decaying every day ; seeing they now tell of their birthes in divers Nations and Cittyes , and at length the Ierusalemites grow few , as the Egyptian generation in the wildernes : and they are estrangeed , and their acquaintance obscureed , and their estate abhorred , and beecom abhominable , like dead men : now beeing thus dead in sorrowfull lives , buryed deeply in distresses , and covered with wrongfull oppression , shutt up from their freindes and acquaintance by remotenes , and terriblely amaseed by affliction , and Gods angry terror upon them ; Now how can they confess him aright , as Psalm . 86.137 . and shew his kindenes and faithfullnes among the Destroyers , and make his Miracles plain among them that understand nothing , or manifest his Iustice , wher it shall not bee remembred ? For this hee prayeth aloud , in the night , as Psalm 134. And holdeth up his handes , and calleth dayly for salvation and redemption , with early shouting and praier for the same : to wit , their return to Ierusalem , to prais him ; counting all placees els in the world , but an absolute state of death , whersoever they were captiveed .

And that ther is none to bee compar●ed either in heaven or earth to the Eternall ; for his warlikenes , for might , or counsell , or terror ; for beating down the proud Nations and scattering of his Enimyes . Now haveing exalted David , and covenanted with him , and sworn , that his Throne shal be for ever , and his seed after him , and that hee would so strengthen him , that no enimyes should hurt or oppress him ; and that hee would make him as deer as his Eldest sonn , and give him a supremacey above all the kinges of the Earth : and that hee would never take his kindenes from him , onely correct him with ●odds for transgression of his Law : Now hee noteeth , that the Enimye hath the advantage , and rejoyce , God is angry and breaks his covenant , Ierusalem is takeen and layd desolate , the crown of his Anointed is cast on the ground , the church is in captivity , even in their prime ; their swordes nor their hartes have any edges to battell , and his Throne is overturned , and hee is abashed , and is a reproche to his neighbours ; and praye●h , that hee would no longer now hide his face , in his ang●y dealing thus against them , but remember what stripes they bee able to carry , and not to make an end of them in his wrath , but let them see his salvation in time , and redeem them , and to think of what continuance they are , seeing oppression makes an end of the strongest ( and what was their Creation worth w●thout Redemption ) and think upon his kindenesses again , and faithfull covenant to David , and consider all his wayes , after this correction , and the Reproche that the church putteth up , at the handes of thes great Nations , their Enimyes , that cannot abide his steps .

They shall bee so defended and shielded therby , that no weapons nor snares nor ods , by night or day , at home nor abroad , can dea●e with them .

Another sens of Tsade , is Tsad , a side , wher as all fell beside him , and no kindes of stroke , nor scourge , nor plague could f●ll on him , &c. The second letter is Aleph , for a thousand , and also many thousandes , by declineing it . And Aleph , for study , or lerning , which is ment by the wordes imbrace , and knowen , &c. also Tsadeh for food which is his study and instruction , which bringeth salvation and his fill of dayes and all benefit , and victory .

As you may see by insisting upon the wordes ; dwelling , lodgeing , relyeing , truth , habitation , tabernacle , &c. The person is faith , the hous is the word of the moste Highe , and All-sufficient , for his moste safe protection . The Ministers are his Tutors , to keep him from all offence , and perill , and shame , in the world . From hence is all victory , their faith and love and dwelling with God , and adviseing with his word and loveing of him , and his grace is sufficient , 2 Cor. 12.

Which they acknowledge to bee a benefit of high transscendence , and excellent consequence to them , and past the understanding of the beastly and froward kinde of men : which is , let the wicked , the Molesters of the Church , and the Enimyes of God , flowerish never so well ; and look never so green : they note , they shall bee rooted out for ever , and perish , as Ps. 109. and bee soon dissevered one from an other , and all their combination frustratee● ; when God shall survive for ever , and hold up the horn and glory of his Church , with a fresh anoyntment . And they shall have a whispering intelligence out of the word ( by examples ) of all plottes and practises against them , and shall behold their Tormentors , as plain as in a glass . And they , the Iust , as Ps. 36. shall bee green and flowe●ish in their age , bee in good likeing , that are planted in the hous of God , and grow as upright as Cedars , to shew the uprightenes of the Eternall , and their rock : that ther is no wrong in him .

It is a good thing to be thankfull for our reformation , and to be disciplined unto eternall life . Mark the repetition of wordes , and also of kindes . PSALM XCIII . THis Psalme farther prooveth the benefit of the Sabbath service , which according to Ps. 29. setteth out the strength and statelynes of the Ministry , that at this time and place , the word of God beareth swey ; that amaseeth , judgeeth and confirmeth all the world ; It is the pretious attire of the Eternall , imagined by the costly jewells , stones and softnes of rayment , which the priesthood ware . Wherfor to this psalme and the former , and the rest of the sabbath , belongeth the whole epistle to the Hebrewes , much of the revelation and Ezekiel , and a great part of Exodus , all buissines of the Tabernacle . The Eternall is the righteousnes of the word of God , and his Throne the Scriptures , bo●h ancient of dayes , from everlasting antiquity : the gaynes of habit , and ornament therof , is wisedom , and the cincture truthe , which is the whole strength and stay of the world : and this is the law of God , that holdeth all the world uprighte . The rivers , great waters , and the seas , all the degrees of the Heathen have lofty things to utter , but the word of God far passeth all . His Testimonyes and Law , his protestation , and covenant , bee moste firme things , and sure , to leane unto , ther is no fault or dissembling in them , and that makeeth the holynes of his hous , for which , all the world have their affection and resort therunto , as long as the world lasteth .

PSALM XCIV . NOw when righteousnes reigneth , is a time for the Church to call for Iudgement upon their oppressours . Seeeing God , that is the Iudge of the world , doth hear , and see , and understand all the workes of the proud and wicked heathen , and correcteth them , and bringeth them to knowledge , beyond and contrary to their imaginations : hee well knowing the vanity of mens thoughtes . Now seeing Iudgement is according to Iustice , and answereth to all upright mindes , after the Law : they are sure to doe well , and prosper at the last , notwithstanding their correction . Which beeing for the Law and for rest ; dureeth , but while a pit of utter destruction is in makeing for the wicked : which as great bodyes moove slowly : so , their end beeing delayed , is surviveed by Iustice and patience at last . Hee that makeeth the senses is not sensless , but full of light , and full of Iudgement , and wholely just ; and lighteneth all by his Law , and must needs require attendance of brutish and heathenish men . To turn him from the way of destruction , to the way of salvation : from the bad way , to the good way , from the way of death , to the way of life , by the Scriptures , and confirm him . And this likewise is a wonderfull benefit of the Sabbath . Now in the greatest distress that can com , by the Molesters of the church , that might even break a mans hart to think on : Ps. 115. when they see their feet are gone from under them , and they are about to despaire of life and safety : then the repetitions of Gods great workes and kindenesses doe releeve them , and set them up again , with this comfort within them : that no corrupt estate or government can indure or reigne check by jowl with him : or any Corregnum , of such , as plot and decree Mischeeff against the just and harmless . Therfor now the church prayeth for a cleer revenge , a due retribution , and a treble reward upon their oppressours : and that their God , the Eternall , their trust and relye , would unweave their mischeeff , and unplot their devisees , and render their own sorrow upon them , and destroy them . Construction . Tsade , Food : which is the light and understanding of the word : the first of all creatures , Gen. 1. Io. 1. and it yeeldeth all contentment and satiety , help and succour . Heer in this peece , the brute and foolish are opposed to the lerned : and the vexers , wicked and ungodly : to the Godly and just , and quiet ones , answerable to the 92. ( as it were the same ) and the greevers ther , are Iudged heer . A great dore is opened , &c. Daleth , an entrance or dore , for instruction . Mark the repetition destroy &c. workers of Greeff , &c. brute and foolish , &c. correction , teaching , omnipotencey of the Eternall , in knowledge and power , to revenge : by paying every one according to their works , as Iudges of the earth , Ps. 62. That the unquiet and disquieters may have no quiet , rest nor Sabbath at all , but end with greeff , and mischeeff of their own . And this according to the letter Ghimel , in the last peece , for reward , or right , or judgement , or revenge , as yf it were still the same psalme , observing the A B C for verses , with one over , to shew Ghimel , in the second vers . Numbers . The wildernes heer is the proud , the wicked , the disquieters , the bruteish , the foolish , insulters , the vaunters , the arrogant , oppressors , sleyers , murtherers , naughty and mischeevous ones , ill Rulers that hunt for the life of the just , and condemners of innocents , &c. The word giveth rest from such , and safety and defens : but to such , is no peace , rest , nor Sabbath at all . Is. 54.48 . Iude , &c. PSALM XCV . THer is no peace to the wicked : so ther is no rest but to them of understanding , and how great a benefit is it then to be brought unto it ? In this psalme , it is by way of their behaviour , in the church and Sabbath service . They must beginn with triumph to the Everlasting , their righteousnes , and accord to the rock of their salvation , the Scriptures , from whence they were digged and formed , with psalmes of thanks offering for deliverance for the greatnes of God , and his kingdom who hath in his handes all unaccessible places , by power of creation ; putting off the shoos of fowl wayes , and unclean lives , for the holynes of the place , by the feet of the saintes . They must doo all manner of reverence to their makeer , their God , for their induement of Grace and Manners , for their Education , and fostering them with his own hand , by his Law : and not with hard and stony hartes , full of strife and infidelity , and devilish temptation , to hear his word : but without any wrath or murmuring , as Ps. 4. with all contentment , to hearken to him and consider his work . That they bee not wicked and greeve God , and err still in their harts , ignorant of his wayes , notwithstanding their instructions , and bee depriveed of their rest . Ps. 81. Consider the great work of the third day , Gen. 1. Com. 4. wher it is to bee noteed , that the weightynes of the work , is still to bee admireed , for the necessity of rest ; and for greater sanctification and blessing of the Sabbath , ever som part of the creation is recorded , and the Great Creator to be magnifyed , extolled and worshiped . Construction . Tsade , for meat or food : and that is the makeing and creating of us by the word . by the comming together of the words , made and formed , and feeding , and handes , &c. And hee biddeth prepare gentle and soft harts for instruction , at the time of hearing the word , that the meat may doo them good , that they may beleeve and relent , and repent at the comming of the Kingdom . When they see the word to raigne , and rule , see their harts are mislead and hardned , and cannot repent , nor receive , the food at Meribah , and Massah , Exod. 16. He , behold , for the greatnes of the Creator , they must present themselves in songes , gratefullnes , in prayers of humblenes , with all reverence , for the deep serchings out of sight , and the steep hills , in sight : by the abounding and defect of He , in divers words , and rareity of construction . It is also apparent , by Hem , the demonstrative , they , comming twise together . Numbers . Ther is nothing but the word and the wildernes , Government and no Government , docible and tractable , and quiet people : and hard harted , and disquiet , and molesters , tempters and provokers . Which have no benefit of the word , and cannot obtein the rest , of the Kingdom : but to the troublesom , is tribulation and anguish . PSALM . XCVI . THe Everlasting , the God of righteousnes is greater , and more commendable , and far more reverend , then all the Gods of the Heathen , for makeing and confirming the heavens of his sanctuary , wherall worship , Majesty , strength and decencey is taught before him , out of his word : wher hee raigneth and setleth all the world , as Ps. 29. so sure by his doctrine , that it can never bee mooved , or carryed away again by any winde . And this is likewise to bee reckoned , a great benefit of the Sabbath service , to all nations : and thought worthy of a new song of triumph , to his Name and the glory therof : His kingdom of righteousnes , as Ps. 4. and his miraculous salvation heerby , to bee preached , and told every day among the Heathen . That all Nations , famylyes , of all the earth : may ascribe all glory and strength to his Name , and offer and bow unto him , with holy fear and trembling before him . That th● Heavens and the earth , the sea and all that is in it , may thunder out joy and gladnes , & all plants , feeld-herbs and trees of the wood , leap and triumph and keep Sabbath , for the Iustice , constancey and faythfullnes of their king , at his comming to judgement ( now by his word ) and secureity of their kingdom for evermore . Consider the second dayes work , Gen. 1. with the Commandement . Construction . Tsade , for meat or food : this is , joy in the kingdom of heaven : for the righteousnes , and peace , and salvation therof . For this hee sheweth all kinde of of rejoycieing , approoving therof , amendment of life and a welcom : singing , leaping , daunceing , vaunting of all creatures , and boasting and publishing therof : which is the meat offering , in his courtes , at Ierusalem , the joy of all the earth , for the raigning of righteousnes , and of the word . And so commeth the kingdom of heaven to bee meat and drink , by joy in the holy ghost , and a heavenly delight in the power and glory therof ; the prevailing of the word in man , and the lustre of a godlye life . Mark the wordes , and the insisting theron . For Vav , a crook , or to take hold , hee dealeth by the contrary : to give and offer , and bow unto , and doo reverence , and worship and tremble , by the word , yeeld , &c. Take up presents , &c. Mark the iteration . Tsav , of Tsivvah , both the letters , signify , commend , commaund or bequeath , or send , to the same purpose : for the comming of the kingdom , for which wee pray , Math. 6. As all kingdom is with power and strength and commande , Ps. 68. Numbers . The wildernes heer , is the wilde nations and marches of the Heathen . wher the word of God , and this Kingdom of a godly man is to bee preached , and published all abroad : to setle them in a sound doctrine , that they may never bee moved more . What a delight they have to entertain it , what a rejoyceing and a welcom is , at the comming of righteousnes , Is. 52. when the nations bee conquered by it , and the church increased ? mark the doubling of the word Hethen , Nations , familyes , people , &c. what a God hee is in respect of their Idoles : that is so to bee commended ? mark the charge , bless him , preach him , tell out his glory , &c. And this for true and righte Iudgement , the stay of the whole world . Mark the doubling again . PSALM . XCVII . THe kingdom of heaven , of righteousnes and of God , is not with outward observation , but hee reigneth in darknes , with a cloud about him , in a dark and obscure stile of speaking , that his Enimyes may not perceive him . For right judgement and understanding of the minde is his Throne , and the fire of the Law hee sets before him , that burns round about his foes . The flashes of his lightnings make all the earth afrayed , and the hartes of great kingdomes ( the Mountains of the world ) to melt as wax at his presence , and to becom soft and yeeld unto him . And his Glory , beeing like the heavens ; putteth down all idolatry and bragging worship , and saveth his gratious ones from the wicked , and to preserve their lives , by forsakeing of ill , by that subintellectuall light which is preached unto them . And for these benefits may the Ilandes rejoyce , and triumph , & keep holy Sabbath , for the peace that preserveth their trade : Mount Sion and Iudah , for his Iudgements and advauncement of their God aboue all : the Godly , for their preservation , and the just , for light and understanding . Construction . Tsade , for meat or food , which is the delight which they have in the Kingdom of God , and raigning of righteousnes , by preaching and instruction , of the Sabbath , that all the earth may bee glad of . And also for Gods excellent Iudgements , of Zion , Ps. 19. to rejoyce in . Another part of the kingdom of God , is his judgement , and punishment , sevenfold upon his foes , when hee teacheth the Godly and his deer ones , how to save their lives : and this by fire work of his wrath out of the Law before him : according to the letter Zain , for sevenfold . Mark the doubling of both partes of the throne : the one part is of justice , and of light , and the other of darknes and of firey judgement . The buissines of rejoyceing is all over light to the righteous , and judgement upon the wicked that the earth tremble at . Mark all the repetitions , and relative speeches , for that . Numbers . The wildernes heer , is Gods Enimyes , opposed to his beloved and deer ones : and the Idolaters of the Nations , and Image-makeers , they are the cheeff that bee daunted and abashed at his Glory : inviteed to his worship , for his excelling of all Gods for judgements , beeing Lord of all the earth . Mark the relation , and repetition : between light and darknes , God and Idoles , rejoyceing , &c. And this for the glory of the kingdom . PSALM XCVIII . WOnderfull strange workes of salvation , hath the Everlasting wrought by the Dexterity of his holy ministry , and his righteousnes in the Law , called his right hand and holy Arm , even in the sight of the heathen : which hee fullfilled , in carrying them through the sea , and drawing them out of mighty waters , as Ps. 18. beeing kinde and faithfull to Israel : that all the world have taken notice of the salvation of their God. Therfor now , they are to sing a new song unto him . And that with all solemnity , and greatest triumph that can bee , before their king ; with Iubeling , and chaunting , psalmes and sonets , with hart and musicall voice , with shrill soundes of trumpets , that the sea and all that is in it , the world and all the dwellers in it ; rivers and hills and all creatures wher ever men goe : may thunder and sound out Echoes of Ioy and gladnes , and rejoyce and keep holy day before him : hee commeth to judge the earth , that judgeth all justly , divideing the word . Construction . Tsade , for meat or food . They are fed with the great joy of his salvation : by revelations and cleer interpretations of his mysteryes and hid things of the word , Act. 14. Ier. 15. At his comming and raigning with righteousnes , Eph. 3. and a cleer judgement within them . Wherto all the world ought to bee obedient . they are made wise unto salvation , and to judge right with in them selves . His food of mercy and truth they live by . Mark the repetition : salvation , wonderfull work : and reveled , made known , remembred and see : relatives . Mark the doubling of all the words : reacting his prais & joy . The two letters Tsach , cleer , or to cleer , Is. 66. by loudnes shrillnes , plainnes , &c. the letter Cheth , for fear , is spareed , becaus of the insisting upon rejoyceing : the contrary . Numbers . The wildernes is implyed by the Heathen , the endes of the earth , and the confuseed world and her inhabitants . that before the comming of the word unto them , were without God in the world , or any true judgement unto salvation , to delight in . Mark the repetition : word , judge , justly , &c. They must needs therfor , greatly rejoyce at the comming therof . PSALM XCIX . HOw bewtifull are the feet of him that preacheth good tideings , and bringeth news of peace and salvation in his lips ? Now Righteousnes raigneth in the Ministers , the Angels and Cheru●s ; woe bee to the Gentiles and nations of the Heathen . And while God is so great in Zion , and so farr exalted above them : they were best to incline to his Kingdom and worship his Name , that is so great , so reverend , and so holy . For all the strength of a Kingdom is the lov●ing of Iudgement , and prepareing of Right , which is the Law , as Psal. 111. And God hath made in Iacob , in that kingdom of priests : a Law both of judgement and justice , for the peace and salvation of his servants ; which hee committed to Moses , Aaron , and Samuel , of his Priests , in a cloudy and dark stile , when they called upon him , that they should handle the same ; and they observed it , and received the understanding of it , to preach it to all . The summ of all which hee answered them ; was the two parts of the Law , defineing himself unto them , as Ps. 19. that the Law had reward and punishment in it , and that hee was a God of forgivenes , and a God of revenge , for their works . Therfor that they should exalt greatly the throne of that kingdom of justice , of their God , and fall at his feet , at his footstool , Ierusalem , and becom his subjects , becaus hee is holy ; and prostrate their selves in Zion , at his holy hill , for the holynes of the Law and the vtterance therof , the everlasting Kingdom of God and his Righteousnes . Construction . Tsade , for food , for receiving of the word and preaching of it : Exod. 19.20 . Iudgement , the strength of Government , and of a King , is heer for food , Micah . 5. This was Iacobs portion , and the majesty of Zion , Gods Testimonyes and prescripts , & answers out of the Law , in a secret stile . Heerwith is his ministry fed when they call , and all rule preserved , and kingdom established . Hee raigneth within the vaile , in the moste holy place , and feedeth with mercey and forgiuenes , from the mercy seat , and reuenge , a kinde of judgement from the Law. And this is his holynes . mark the word repeated and argued : Iudgement , answer , holy , strength , and confirming , calling , &c. Theth , to decline , or stoop , or bow , or prostrate , as from Cheth , the second letter in the other peece . They extoll him with all humility and reverence , for the same . Marke the doubling , of the words : Exalt , and prostrate , &c. and equalls : footstool , holy hill , &c. Numbers . The Nations , for want of Iudgement have no strength nor stay of government , but are in commotion , & are declineing and tottering , all in peeces , kingdoms divideed against them selves : they cannot stand . The doctrine of Zion beeing so farr above theirs , is to bee admirably exalted and reverence●d , and for the holynes of it , opposeed to the wildernes of their profanenes . PSALM C. WHat it is to tell out the loueing kindenes and faithfullnes of God , at morning and evening prayer , of the Sabbath , Ps. 92. and the worthynes and benefit therof ; is shewed cleerly in this psalme , to bee thankfullnes vnto him . For what better thing can be then it , by which God is best and onely gloryfied , Ps. 50. and man best pleased , seeing that the repeating of kindenes expresseth thanks ? Then as kindenes is measureed by the benefits , and faithfullnes seen in all good turns : so , the greatest good turn , and greatest benefit , and the greatest kindenes deserveth the greatest thankes . Now , what greater goodnes could ther bee to the Church , then their Creation , and reforming of their heathenish manners , and the makeing of them by his Word and Law , wherby he became a father vnto them : begetting them out of all darknes , feare and distress , to a most glorious light , and boldnes , and salvation : to make them his own people , his holy people , and his onely inheritance ; his sheep , and flock , and congregation ; and to bee their dayly sheephard and Pastor , as Ps. 23. giueing them their education and food , out of the Doctrine therof ? And what worship , thanks or blessing or prais or honour , can bee sufficient for so great a benefit ? Therfore , for the goodnes of his everlasting kindenes and faithfulnes , it is required , that they neglect not , but come before him , and keep Sabbath in his holy place , and with all alacrity , all triumph , all glory and melody that can bee ; that of all offerings , they remember to sacrifice thanks and praise in his courts , with all their forcees . And that they recompens worship , and blessing of his Name , the cheeffest service for evermore : then which , nothing can bee sweeter in the nostrels of God. Construction . Quoph , of Jaquaph , to compass , beseege , or invade , Ios. 6. which hee expoundeth , by the word bo , to come vpon , or to , or invade , Is. 41. wherfore the word is twise vseed , that it may bee noteed . As also by the rest of the words , that intend the priests function that minister about him , in the congregation , on the Sabbath : as triumph , serue , and thank , and prais and bless , &c. the Eternall and his Name in his hous : for his loueing kindenes , that is alwayes round about them , and compassing them , Ps. 32. and imbraceing of them . Numbers . Hee imbraceed them with his grace in the wildernes , and with his loue and kindenes drew them to him , and built them vp with Faith in his Word , Is. 31. The Eternall is the God that made them , and owes them , and feeds them . What is heere intended , but the godhead of grace and mercy , in the Name Iehovah , Eternall , the way of God , Psal. 145.116 Deut. 4. Exod. 33. Distinguished by the repetition of the demonstratiue . Hee , hee , that , &c. And this his everlasting mercyes , and goodnes and truth of his word , his faith and loue haue compassed them , and wonn them out of rudenesse , and mended their manners . So the Makeer , Owner , and Pasture , is nothing but the way of God , which is , to lead & liue an eternall life : which neuer expireeth , as the Law that dyeth not while the kingdom standeth , which beeing a life for all , and for ever , and for rest , is called Eternall . PSALM CI. IN this Psalme , David makeeth God to teach his way , and to tell his minde to them that feare him , promissed , Psal. 25. which is , the Iudgement and the kindenes mentioned in the Psalmes heere before ; which hee now makeeth a Psalme of : to wit , of Grace and of condemnation , which the word yeeldeth at the hearing therof : beeing the Baptism of the holy Ghost and of fire , and the fann that purgeth the floor , and makeeth clean the corn from the chaff , and diuideeth the sheep from the Goats , the blessed from the cursed , and the Elect from the reprobate . Wher God teacheth in his Church the perfect way , that hee himselfe walketh in his hous : with an intyre hart , as Ps. 26. when they come vnto him , shewing whom he setteth out of sight , and who shall not cleane with him , whom hee hateeth , and whom hee will put away , whom hee will take no knowledge of , whom hee will utterly dissolue , and whom hee cannot abide . Whom his eyes are upon , to dwell with him , walk with him , and serve him ; and who shall not dwell with him , nor tary in his sight . That by this division : the Enimyes of God may bee soon cutt off and dissolved from the citty of God and his habitation . The knowledge wherof is also a wonderfull benefit . For by this description and separation , and excommunication of the wicked : the just may bee saveed and the church increased . For how shall they bee saveed but by faith , and faith commeth by hearing and hearing by the word of God ? Heerby they discern , whether they bee of God or no , and what way they goe or ought to walk . Construction . Quoph , of jaquaph , to compass or inviron : heer hee intimates the kindenes , grace and favour of God , called his hous and citty , that entertaines none but the faithfull , and them that walke uprightly before him . Mark the words : within my hous , in my sight , mine eyes are upon , dwell , tary , &c. doubled . Also the word citty , equall to it . According to the instruction of the word , intimated likewise by the letter Aleph , to instruct : as by the doubling of thes words : perfect way , instruct , &c. Both the letters make Qua , vomit , or to vomit , or purge . to which hee frameeth the reprobate , and the contrary church , and synagogue of Satan . Apo. 2.3 . the hurtfull children , or belial , that are every way , in their harts , farr from God and his way , and his word , and therfor are not to dwell with him , Math. 7. Is. 29. Ier. 12. but to be cut off , and to bee spewed out , and not brooked . Ap. 3. Mark the doubling : of put away , &c. and dissolve , &c. and abide , &c. Numbers . The wildernes heer is the devillishnes of mankinde , for which hee is accursed and cast out , forsaken and left desolate , turners from instruction , froward harts , secret accuseers , proud , dissemblers , deceivers and lyers and workers of greeff . Which beeing banished the Church and hevenly citty of God : ther will remain nothing but salvation , strength and power , and the Kingdom of God therin . Ap. 12.21.22 . For the manifold judgement of a wicked hart , that is allwayes compassing of ill wayes . 2. Cor. 5.6 . Pro. 11.19 . Na. 1.2 . PSALM CII . IErusalem long waiting , for the expiration of their captivity , and return from Babel , beeing promissed to them by the Prophet , to bee within seventy yeers : now when the time approcheed , they beginn deeply to consider their misery , with a harty sadnes , like David , Ps. 31. and upon many considerations , to pray , that God will not fail , at the set time to deliver them , and have compassion on it : for his own glory ; becaus hee built it , and hath his name called upon , in it : and for his servants glory in the service of him , and their love to the place : and for the glory of the place it self , beeing the joy of all the earth : and for their great paines of dureance , and an intolerable feeling that they have of their calamity , growing old and withering therin . They pray , and shout hard unto God , to bee heard quickly , becaus their age is almoste evapoured away , and their lives expir●ed , their bones burning , and their harts withering in their bellyes for sorrow , they cannot eate their meat , and they sigh till all their f●esh bee gon , and skinn and bone com together . They are wondred at like owles in the day , and like som lone or strange bird upon the hous , to all the rest ; railed and charmed at , by their Enimyes , that bread and ashes in all one to them , for meat , and they have store of teares to their drink : for the terrible wrath which they feel in them , that hee hath cast them off . Now , for that their dayes goe downward , and their lives decline like an afternoon , & God and his remembrance remaineth still , before and after heaven and earth , that hee hath made with handes : they pray , that hee will have pitty upon Zion , and for his own prais in future generations , hear the Prayer of his people that is overthrowen , without disdeigne , and loos them home again , to prais him in Zion , Ps. 133. and serve him with other nations in Ierusalem ; and that hee that beat down their strength , when they wear in the midle of their cours , haveing injoyed their Glory but a while , and hath such plenty of yeers and generations left : that hee would spare them som yeeres of their lives , to return with joy and delight in them , that they and their children may abide still before him , and never be stirred again . Construction . Quoph , to compass : to bes●●ch , for mercey , and kindenes , and favour , and grace : and compass , in misery : when the dayes be com about , Iob. 1. Mark the words : hear , and attend , time , and set time , dayes , yeers , &c. Mercy , compassion , regard , despise , &c. And the end is inlargement : the grace is upon Zion , for the special glory of it : that is , for the church and hous of God , in so great account in the world : according to Beth , the second letter , for a hous : and now so waste . The prayer is for the eternall memory of it , intended from Quabhabh to curs : in the Petaroth , Balak . Num. 22.23.24 . Vseing the contrary sens : as praying in steed of Cu●sing : and for grace in steed of vengeance . Mark the repetitions , prayer and the manner , remain , generations , servant , seed , Zion , abide , or dwell , glory , &c. Numbers . The wildernes . The church , Ier. 12. Shee is all solitary , and strange , shee is waste , cast out , and ruined , her Enimyes have vowed her destruction , shee is in a consumption with greeff , and becom a very Anatomy in her destress . Mark the repetition , her dayes consume , &c. her dayes decline &c. shee is withered like an herb , &c. wildernes , an owl among the nations , &c : so their state is the wildernes . Ier. 12. They can not finde wher they are , they are so distracted with distress . And all for lack of Zion , and the word of God , that they pine away for . PSALM . CIII . THese two Psalmes shew the judgement and kindenes of Psalme . 101. How for their wickednes and hollownes , men are brought in distress , and banished from God : and for their humility and integrity , pittyed and reecived again : this beeing the graunt of the request in the former : wherby the blessing of the Name of God , Ps. 100. for benefits and kindenes , is still continued : Thus comming by paires ; as Ps. 20.21.90.91 . Request and reward : Prayer and Prais : misery and joy together . Now all correction is greevous for the time , though it bee profitable , and necessary for salvation at last ; becaus the mighty gracees and favours of God , by it , are brought : and they must bee layed once at Gods feet , and trodden to dust , and pounded to powder , before rhey will bee reformed of their haughtynes , hollownes , and stubbornnes that hee ●indeeth in them . which now beeing considered ; hee admireeth much the kingdom of Gods patience , and the dureablenes of his mercyes toward his childeren ; how hee healeth their greeff , and pardoneth their iniquityes , ( awaiting their conversion , humility , repentance and amendment of them ; ) and recovereth them again out of the pit , to grace them with all good ornaments ( haveing once stript them of all ) , attireing them anew , with all good gifts of the spirit , which may bee profitable to life . Now becaus all Gods correction hath been with favour and compassion , beeing willing to bee reconcileed unto them , spareing their faults , and throwing their trespasses away , in his heauenly kingdom : hee willeth his soul that loveeth him , and all the propertyes and forcees that hee hath in him , and all that ever hee can doo , and all the Excercisers of the Ministry , that hear his voice and may doo his will , and commandement , and all the rest of the Church , his works : to bless him , and thank his Name for all his benefits . Construction . Quoph , of Iaquaph , to compass . Heerupon hee handleth the infinit reach and work , Kingdom of Mercy and grace , and love and kindenes of God , the excellence therof to his observers , and all them of tender harts that fear transgression . His angels pitch round about such . Psal. 34. This is equalled in the words : and guardeth thee with kindenes and Mercey . See the repetition : kindenes , mercey , fear him , & Eternall , &c. For his kingdom and property of merccy , domination , dominion , kingdom , &c. Ghimel , the second letter , to reward , or bee beneficiall unto ; which is first in the word , good deeds , &c. Hee hath not don according , &c. but , &c. and then by returning of thanks , by the termn bless , so often repeated . And requireed of all degrees , of ministers , the kingdom and of the word and his will , as grace for Grace . Hee handleth here Gods lenity , Mercey and goodnes onely , according to the letters , and also the Name Iehovah and of his virtue . Exo. 33. Ro. 9. The Psalme hath just the A B C , number of verses , to shew that of som one letter hee treateth . which is Ghimel , for his great Goodnes to all sortes . Mark the repetition . Numbers . The wildernes is wher the word of God is not hard of , wherfor the preaching of the kingdom of it was in wilde countryes , such as was Iohn Baptists and Pauls , &c. To Nations rude and hard harted ; which is heer intimated by the precisenes and great ability of the Ministry , the contrary : that can hear , and are able to doe his word , his will and his Kingdom of forgivenes , their place is to thank him . Because mercy , kindenes , and charity raigneth in them . This is that which wee crave in the Lords prayer , Math. 6. See the repetition in commandements , word , voice , hear , &c. For untill the Kingdom bee com which is compassed with all heavenly , civility : Wee remain still in the wildernes ; ungoverned , and unformed , barbarous and rude . PSALM CIV . THe everlasting righteousnes of the Law of God , the word , by which all things were made ; and without it was made nothing that was made ; and that giveth life and breath and all things , and that all have their living and their mooveing and their beeing in him : the everlasting father and creator of the Church , and Prince of peace , beeing heer describeed : for the utility and benefit heerof , the people must meeds continue his blessing of the everlasting in his soul , and thanks unto his God ; his discipline beeing of this sort . First of his majesty and greatnes , then his apparell , then his habitation , then his goeing , and his sending , and his work , that the word of God is a comely , a reverend , a grave and a stately thing to behold , and for beehaviour and counsell , to listen to : It is arrayed all with light & glory , and manteled with the heavens of understanding , It dwelleth in the Scriptures , and rideeth in parables , out of sight , in a dark stile , above the cloudes . It is swift and speedy in operation , as the winde , and his message and Ministry so swift and so firey , that ther is no withstanding or disputing , hee so establisheth the earth in doctrine , that shall never bee mooved ; the waters of the scriptures are so deep about it that all the world is drowned in them : yet his thundering spirit , mooving upon them , by doctrine divideeth them , and discouvereth the deep and his secrets therof : and sending the rivers of his doctrine between the hills , among the villages , to instruct the brutish : wher the heavenly birds of men , may sing praises in the woods the books of the Bible ; by the fruit of his creation , the hills are taught to bear fruit , to satisfy and content the earth , with grass for beasts , as Nabuchadnezar , that proud King , & outward man , with that base diet of uncapability , and hearbs & fruit , to make themselves all manner of sustenance , countenance and confidence and grace to his creature , the Church and inner man with all deintyes , Psal. 23.21 . That they may bee contented , with the doctrine of the cedars , the Ministry , which God hath set in his Church : wher the queristers dwell , wher for loftynes of building and edification , the holy stork is safe : so is the Roe by the hills , and the cunny by the rocks : so that all salvation is by it . Hee putteth of his light at seasons , and layeth down his clothes of understanding , by setting waneing and eclipsing of the lightes ; and makeeth darknes for the wicked to seek their pray , and wilde and savage brute men to walk in ignorance ; that couch ( as soon as it is light , and knowledge ariseeth ) at hearing of the word : that the Church may travail safe , and have all the understanding , and injoy the light therof till the evening , all their lives . And what is ther in all the earth that the wisdom of God hath not wrought ? His wisdom is in the broad sea , the Heathen and the deep is round about him , & ther is knowledge and understanding of all the creatures therin , and the sport of the devill among them : and of the ships upon it , the Arks , and the Churches saveed and transported by it . All which doo hope upon him , to receive instruction in their time ; who dealeth unto them his doctrine ; and they are well satisfyed and contented . Yf they want the word , or it bee restrained from them , they are dead , ther is no life in them , and consume to nothing but at his sending out of his spirit , the Law , his firey message : the face of the earth is clean changeed , and the Church renewed and repaired , and re-edifyed again And now , that the glory of God , the righteousnes of the Law , Psal. 19. may bee revealed by him , and God may rejoyce in him , his Minister and work of his word : and because his ●peech pleaseth him , who is so terrible : hee promiseeth to sing Psalmes unto him . And because God likeeth it ; hee wil never have don , that the wicked may bee quite consumeed . And willeth his soul still to bless him . For benefits as before . Construction .

And that preaching , so farr resembleth the creation , by reformation out of dust , bread of the word for to comfort mans hart , &c. The end of all is the creating of man , and his renewing : which is not don but when God hath once been throughly angry with his people . And hath brought them to their wits end , that they bee even becom dust againe , with misery & affliction , trampling & upon of the wicked , quite to abolish wickednes and sinn , and make an end of iniquity , Dan. 9. and make all plain before them , so that by the reformation , the wildnernes is discerned . Heer Nun , is added to the plurall , for reformation of the word , according to the singular . For increas of the Church and creation of strangeers , Psal. 146. PSALM CV . BEcause all creation were vain & not worthy prais without preservation , as Ps. 89. hee makeeth heer the Cadence of this book to continue , dureing bothe , to the end heerof : shewing in thes two Psalmes , and that following , all his mighty and strange works of his deliverance and saveing of them , and his kindenes to them , all along . Wherfor , as it is a good thing still to bee mindefull of gracees , as Ps. 92. So this Psalm is penned for a Psalme of thanks-giveing or grace after meat , for the Church to sing . Shewing their poor and hard beginning , for number , acquaintance and provision : their growing , increasing , fruitfullnes and strength in a strange country , against all conspiraceys . How Moses , with the light of the Law starved their Enimyes , by the cups of the wrath of God , which plagued their policy , bringing darknes upon their understanding and befooling them , and steined all their learning . God sent Crawlers for promotion in their Kings court , and sent a number of biteing rumors , and Enimyes , & invasion in their coastes ; with hail of oppression , that beat down all their doctrine and good things , and hee made their spoilers and their pollers of their common-welth to increas , and destroy their Princees , Apoc. 16. Heerby Israel grew strong and wealthy , & terrible to their Enimyes , brought out by a cloud , and secret purpos of the Law , and lighted them in the night by the fire therof , their earnestnes of song and ege●nes of zeal among them , to guide them : and fed them with all deinty meates and musique , the doctrine of the promiss , which beeing performed in the highest degree , that they might keep and observ his Lawes . Now they beeing thus fed and delivered : hee wisheth the Church to worship him , and call upon his Name and prais him , and sing Psalmes unto him , and mention all his workes , and make merry with his Name , and inquire out his strength , and seek his face , and remember all his wonderfull works , and shew themselves by all meanes thankfull for them .

The two letters Quoph , and He , make Quhah , or Quah , from Jaquah , to obey . Heerto hee alludeeth , by all strength , rule and commande , and obedience and disobedience . Mark the repetition & cleernes , by the relation of kindes of contraryes . And this agreeth to the first . For Ioseph is made ruler and Lord of all . And bindes and looseth , & hath the keyes of the Kingdom and of the hous , to ordein and instruct all , Math. 16. by all bonds and covenants , good rulers , the staff of bread and water , Is. 3. Thes words are doubled : ruler , commande , send , word , &c. hee was found right by the rule of the word .

The wildernes is the wasteing of the Enimye by invasion and plagues of destruction . The message of evill Angels and spirits of wrath , Ps. 78. Iob. 1. adversity makes them loos their hold . The Church is arrived according to the promiss and preserved . The Patriarchs and Prophets , by their message and the word , are the walles and circuit therof , Ap. 7.11 . What went yee foorth into the wildernes to see , &c. Ther is nothing but strange and hard things , and wonders and monsters there , that is incredible to report . So ther is much mystery in the word and of Godlynes ; and when the Church is not well informed , the word it self seemeth a desert , for the wonderfull hardnes of it : which the letter makeeth in this Psalme . But it is cleered by a heavenly revelation and spirituall interpretation , which is the seeking of his face by the mighty operation of the word : and brought to bee beleeved by the Church . And the rest for infidelity , is left a wildernes , Apoc. 12. Ier. 2. Mark the repetition : wonderfull works , excellent Acts , wonderfull miracles , signes and miracles , &c. and this in nations wher no culture , or manurance and right worship is . For the Kingdom and conduct of the word . PSALM . CVI. SHewing the often sinning , transgression , and fall of the Church , and their murmuring against God , and their often receiving again to favour and mercey , by God : & their often forgetting of his kindenes to them , and his often pardoning and forgiveing them again : in Aegypt , at the Sea , in the wildernes , in Horeb , in their tents , at Meribah , in their warrs , in their offerings , at the request of Moses and Phineas , and of his own good will : often times delivering them out of their distresses , remembring his covenant ; and also beeing comfortable to them , by hearing their own requests ; and according to his great kindenesses , takeing them to mercey before their captivers , wherby they beleeved his word and sung his prais : but for the goodnes of such everlasting favour , and the virtues of his kingdom , what wight is able sufficiently to set out , and worship and thank him worthyly ? Now the Church haveing sinned in frowardnes like their fathers , and beeing in the like distress , in captivity , and scatered among the heathen : hee prayeth , that now at his request , hee would gather them again , and bring them home to worship his holy Name . And that God would let them see the kinde salvation of his people likewise , that hee may also behold the joy & wealth of his Choseen , and becom a glorious Actor of his prais and commendation with his inheritance also , and thank him for the same . Construction . Quoph , of Jaquaph , to compass or inviron , you must consider , the largenes and the bountifullness of Gods loveing kindenes , and his exceeding mercyes , and the wide compass of his grace , and the greatnes of his good will , that entertaineth all that observ him . The contrary heerunto is , the rebellion & wrathfullnes of the people , as Children of wrath , Eph. 2. Col. 3.

THe Kings right hand is his Ministry . By discipline fayth and prayer the Serpents head is brokeen , and the Church delivered from bondage , and thus hee commeth to conquer him , and cleer the Grammer . Yf God bee on our side who can bee against us ? yf God fight for us whom should wee fear ? Therfor yf hee take our part , wee may sitt down and bee still . And yf the quarell bee his , what need wee stirr ? God hath no quarell but for his Church , which heer is personed by David the defendour and head of the same . Which , because it is a flock of perfect and upright men , and are not many , but have many adversaryes : God will by their own consistance ; of righteousnes , and peace the fruit therof , subdue their Enimyes , and bring their Enimy , the Devill and Satan underfoot ; which shall fall by their own wrong and perish by their wicked wayes : for what can bee the fruit of wrong but destruction ? By the flowerishing rod of Iustice and judgement ( the strength of the Law , and ten commandements , out of Sion ) & ten st●inged instrument of the Decalogue , Ps. 92.98 . Hee shall subdue them , and rule among them : for their wrongfull resisting the promiss , and their right to Canaan . Which rod of governement , that divideeth waters , and bringeth doctrine out of hard rockes of Scripture : beeing once cast out of their handes , was turned to serpent like Enimyes of God , as Ps. 92. But Moses was shewed by catching it by the taile , and the returning to a rod , that they should have the governement again : which should bee an iron rod and hard governement , as Ps. 2. to the Resisters . For his battail , hee will have none but Levites , and the first born , the flower and choise of the wombe and seed of woman , the best lerned in the Church . The right hand and dexterity of the Ministry shall wound kings : his Enimyes and heades of them , as Ps. 68. when hee is angry : even the head of the Arch-enimy , the King of the land of Rabbah , of the Amonites : by uncrowning him , and tortureing the bodyes of his people striveing with him . Hee drank of the river of doctrine , the discipline of the Law , Ps : 36. Thus by the Church , shall God bring Davids Enimyes under his feet , and hee shall conquer and hold up his head , as Ps. 92. and shall bee a Priest for ever , Is. 61. like Melchizedeq : not born of flesh and blood , nor of the will of man , Io. 1. but of the spirit of God , and to walk with God , without father and without mother , without beginning or end of the dayes of life , or any worldly respect . And hee shall sit at Gods right hand , Ps. 16. and continue in speciall favour and grace with God , for the Eternity of the Church . And this from the conquest of the Serpent , Gen. 3.

Mark how Shin is compassed with the next letters on both sides : Resh , and Tau , in the first and last wordes , to shew the allusion . Deuteronomy . The recitation is , God wil have it is own work , and the victory his , and that a wonderfull work and way of the Law and word of God : the rivers in the Law called the way , Ier. 31. conceived and born in Sion . And the Serpent by a Gospell preached , the river of wisdom out of Sion : Prov. 18. shall bee made to stoope , for a footstoole , and to lick the dust , Psal. 72. and heathen Kings subdued and Archenimyes conquered , and the head of his Anointed shall bee exalted , that medleth not .

HEer hee passeth from the Instrument to the work , according to the order in Ps. 92. to shew us the miraculous effect of the Law , and covenant and promiss ( which in his mercy and compassion , hee preached to his people ) hee recorded to feed them . And the mightynes of the work of God , by this Instrument of his appeareth , by his conquest of the heathen , and recovery of their country again , out of so many strong handes and lions clawes : consisting in truthe , and certainty , and judgement , justice and mercy and the fear of God , wherin it excelled . Wherby it becommeth durable and credible ; for at end of the 430 , and after the fourth generation ( intended in the vers Lamed , and again in Tau , hee sendeth for his Church out of Aegypt , by his covenant and his promiss , in the handes of Moses & Aaron : feeding them all that space , by faith in his promiss and covenant , which hee made last for ever unto them , and redeemed them . And because this Instrument , beeing vseed for all their delightes and sportes , by his everlasting Iustice , worketh also great worship and honour & wisdom : which is begunn in the fear of God , their profession , and perfected by performing the Law : as ps . 99. Hee willeth the same evermore to bee reverenceed , and hallowed . And because his works by this Instrument , are so many , so mighty , so great , so sweet and delightfull and searchable : hee willeth all the whole Church , in all meetings , to prais and worship God , as hee will doo the same himself , with all his hart . And this from the promiss , Gen. 15. for the spirits of the Law , and works of performance , and possession of Canaan , for the Spirit and worship and reverence and fear of God , the profession that beginneth wisdom : and therfor together with the next psalme , is made by the Abce : also the 119. wher the performance of the Law , bringeth good understanding . To perform the commandements satisfyeth this Appitite and temptation , and the Kingdom of heaven hath all . Hee that is wise will unde●stand and observe thes things , Io. 14. Christ calleth himself the way the truthe and the life , which hee spake hebraically . This to bee translateed into our phrase is the true and liveing way or the true and very way of life .

His works are wonderfull : they are so delightfull , so reverend , so seemly , so just , so loveing and kinde and pittyfull , so mighty , so true , so judicious and discreet : and his word , so faithfull and so plain . PSALM . CXII . MErcifull and just men have more light then other men : That when for pitty they lend : that beeing good , they may provide their matters by Iudgement ; because they remain still and are remembred for ever . And having their faith and confidence upon this sure foundation of the righteousnes of the Law ; and their hart so established therin : that for any ill report of the spyes , and the promiss to Abraham ; or ill or hard look of their enimyes : they fear not . They likewise bestow their goodes upon the poor , that heerin , their righteousnes also may last for ever , and that they may bee highly glorifyed therby . Wheras , in this , the wicked , for want of his desire , melteth , and gnasheth his teeth for envye to see it . Now , doth happines consist in abundance of riches ? or shall wee take care to fullfill the lusts of it ? or think yee that riches in godlynes ? No , Godlynes is great riches , yf a man bee content , with that hee hath , and great reward and happines followeth the profession therof . Therfor , laying away this shadow , let us com to the light : the sens then is , that mens hartes by the fear of God shall bee storeed , and mightyly blessed with knowledge , and doctrine of the Law , and promisses , Psal 145. as also with great judgement to use it , as Ps. 40. and great alacrity to impart it , as Ps. 41. which is the riches of grace , and of God , and of the word of God , and the constant preaching therof , to those that want understanding , and are without the same .

And hee shall have wonderfull and strange success , to his harts desire , when the way of the wicked shall melt . PSALM . CXIII . THis psalme hangeth to the last by receiving t●e word from aloft , from the Angels and Ministers , from heaven , beeing preached to the Poor , and divideed and distributeed to the simple and destitute of knowledge , and unlearned ; such as have need of understanding , and are in distress and misery . Likewise it prayeth by the prayer and confidence of Hannah , for a third heaven of understanding . Concerning the literall sens : hee sheweth fi●st , that ther is none so mercifull , or compassionate , nor to bee compareed for humility with God , that vouchsafeth from his glorious dwelling , to visit the base earth , and to redeem them that bee troden to dust by oppression , and as it were cast awayes , and such as are throwen to the dunghill , for things of nought , and of no valew : to make them valewable with the best , and promote them to the highest , and to quicken the dead and fruitless wombs , and to cheer the barren woman with a houffull of children , and to make the despiseed and upbraided woman , an honorable mother , and wipeing away all teares from the eyes . Now beecaus ther is such prosperity by calling upon God , and praying to him : hee praiseth him again , and again , and willeth his Ministers from morning to Everning , and for ever as long as the sunn shineeth : to prais and bless the Name of the Everlasting . So the excellent and moste soveraigne Name of God , beeing Scriptures , wherin hee is nameed , the whole word and Law of God , wherin hee is mentioned : and beeing meditateed or preached , or meditateed and preached : is so repleat with Grace , and mercey and favour , and compassion from on highe , on the afflicted and low degree : that it giveth them all life and consolation and resurrection , and comfort in the spirit .

THer bee three things that cannot bee satisfyed , and the fowerth can never have enough : no more can the Law ever bee sufficiently glorifyed by sens , and enriched by interpretation , wherof ther is no end . This psalme sheweth by way of example , the effect of understanding the former . When Israel had obteined the blessing , and was redeemed from a base bondage and miserable slavery , to bee great Lordes and Conquerors in Canaan : and had Iudah for his Church , and all Iacob for his Lordship : how could they refrain to daunce and sing ; to see the Gentiles and the Hethen flye , and Nations to turn their backs , and kingdomes and Dominions to quake at their comming , as Ps. 77. and presence of the God of Iacob , that turneth hard placees of scriptures into smooth and easy doctrine ? for the hardnes of the letter , such was the commotion , and horrour of the Nations . But for the spirituall sens , it serveth for rejoyceing to the church , for depth of imagination and greatn●s of his workes , as Ps. 92. Also when the hard harts of savage men bee melted into water and tempered ; that they becom docible and affable and tractable by hearing the word . And not continue as at Meribah , Ps. 95. full of provokeing : when all shadowes fly away and they continue with him ; with whom ther is no shadowing or varying or turning : out of all horrour or fear or trouble or trembling , in the holsom doctrine and righteousnes of the Law , and cleer expositions and interpretation therof , by separating , and by putting away all confusion therby .

Jod , a hand , for bancks or shores ? or sides , Daleth , a door , for turning backward , and see the repetition of the words . Iudah had the leading and commande . Iohovah , for mercy , is not : but Adon , for Lord and rule . Deuteronomy . Hee mentioneth heer 4. mighty miracles : in correcting of the creation : at his pleasure . for no cours nor estate is able to resist God his presence , which hee promissed for a conductor in all the travail , or keep his place or his way . It is so terrible that no creature can abide it . Iacobs own presence is also wonderfull , which , of so few as 70. in fower hundred yeeres , grew to an army of six hundred thousand ; beside the women and children and aged . It might fright the country wher they came , and make them horred , and their hair to stand upright ; to behold them , &c. What is it that a great Commander cannot ? New Lords , new lawes , and all upside-down . And such are the wordes , and Acts here ment , as before in the Construction . PSALM CXV . NOtwithstanding the rejoyceing of the Church for the recovering of Canaan , & injoyeing the blessing and promiss : yet in this Psalme they forget not to give all the glory therof to God and to his Name , as Psal. 29.44 . for his wonderfull works of kindenes and faithfullnes , as Ps. 92. For his helping and defending of them in all distresses : for remembring of them beeing in misery ; and blessing of them with the inheritance promissed , Psal. 2. The cheeff strength and glory of the song , the makeer of heaven and earth , and owner of the highest heavens , and of all the senses , & disposeer of the earth , and dwelleth in heaven , and doth whatsoever hee pleaseth . That all the whole church , both Laity and clergey and all that fear him or Profess him , hee may bless all , litle and great , and much more abundantly : them and their childeren after them , in reproche of the heathen and their sensles Images , that can doo nothing , nor have their five wits or any witt about them . And therfor , becaus they that are worn out and are dead , and are buryed in their travail , can not prais him : they that bee alive resolve to bless him , and wish to prais him for ever . In which Psalme , is found the whole profession of godlines , of faith , and confession and thanks giveing , of Glory and prayer , and prais , &c. Spiritually , to the Law of God and righteousnes therof , and judgement therin , that hath every point of atteinment conteined in it , bee ascribeed this help and defence , remembrance and blessing , as Psal. 66. To the which therfor , and in which bee the glory , confidence and prais that hee wisheth : the imployment of the senses , which Imagees neither know nor doo : therfor all the senses , and wayes of blessing and prais , bee ascribeed therunto . Becaus for Idolatry , the Heathen are turned out of doores , and the Church for the fear of God , and reverence of his Law , are redeemed and made Heires : that they give all glory therunto , and put their trust in the righteousnes therof , and commend it . Becaus all the Senses are to bee implyed for judgement , and the whole wisedom of Man resteth in the Law : the Law is to bee glorifyed with all might . And becaus by wisedom blessings are obteined : it self is to bee re-applyed in all afflictions , and to bee blessed for ever , from the creation of heaven and earth . Gen. 1. And this for the foolery of Idolatry that slayeth the Church with greeff , Psalm 42.44 . With speaking against it , or denieing it . Construction . Quoph , of Iaquaph , to compass or invireon , for the kindenes of God : that doth allwayes stand about the faithfull , and protecteth them , and helpeth them , and comforteth them that trust in him , Ps. 32.33 . Quotou , they are yrksom , lothsom and tedious , as are the Images that ther is no use of . For ther is no light in us : but in the Law of God that is the makeer of heaven and earth . See the repetition , God thrise : for the opposeing of Imagees . God can doo all things , and they nothing . Eternall , for affection and preservation of the whole church . Trust , help and defense , &c. Prais , Iah , 15. by the works of Iehovah , and for the spirit therof that images have not . Ps. 135.149 . Deuteronomy . The reciteing and Rehersall heer , is the generall blessing of God for his grace , and the wonderfull light of his truthe through faith . Mark the repetition Israel , Aaron , and all that fear God , bless . Eternall twise abridged , Jah , for Jehovah , heaven upon you , twise , &c. For multiplyeing of his grace for ever . And this serveth for an admiration of the wonderfull way of God. Imagees and dead men can say nothing , to it , it belongs to the liveing to register the Acts of the Eternall . That they may bee of blessed memory , and have a fruitfull posterity . Consider the infinite increas and fructifyeing in Egypt . Deut. 10. Num. 2. According to the Name of Ioseph , in phrase of adding , as Act. 2. And his blessing : Gen. 49. Deut. 33. As the like is in the next , of Iosuah in phrase of saveing . Dealing upon the story as it goes . PSALM CXVI . THis psalme is joined to the former : by shewing , why the Name of God should bee so glorifyed above all , as Ps. 92. And the effect of calling upon him : for at what time so ever hee calleth , in what distress so ever hee bee , and whatsoever hee requesteth : it is readily graunted , and hee is heard and reveeled . When for mis●rable distress and greeff , the very pangs of death and the grave had fallen upon him , and had hold of him , as Psal. 18. that hee doubted of life , and hee was quite exhausted and spent , as David , Psal. 142. hee prayeth for life and hee was holpen : that is , the Everlasting , that is just and kinde in all things of his wayes , and works , and preserveth the simple ones by his word , as Ps. 19. saveed him . When hee was so spent with affliction and misery , that no promiss of life or salvation could possess him or comfort him : and all that was promissed was incredible unto him , and seemed unpossible : and yet for the deer respect of his saintes hee sav●ed him : delivering him from death and pain and wandering , to walk before God and his Saintes in immortality . For this grace hee professeth the love of God , and willeth his minde and soule to bee content , and at quiet , and throughly satisfyed , and take rest : seeing God hath dealt so bountifully with him , as nothing more is to bee demanded , nor any thing can bee a sufficient reward , for his good turns , so doubled and trebled upon him . Therfor hee will take the Scriptures , the book of the Law , of the promiss , of the Covenant , and all the doctrine called the book of salvation , and from thence throughout them all , wassail and call upon the Name of God : Ps. 119. Q. and sacrifice his devotion in Sermons of Thanks unto him , in presence of all his people , in witnes therof : and willeth him to bee praised . And as hee is his Minister and servant at his right hand , and sonn of his handmaid the Church : hee requesteth that hee may bee loosed , and at liberty to doo the same accordingly . Now seeing God calleth his sonn the Church out of Egypt , heer is likewise their invocation , the mercey of God upon them in redeeming them from sorrow , and bringing them home to Eden , their promissed rest of Canaan , the gift of the Nations , and their contentment and love and thankfullnes for the same , to the study and contemplation of the Law of God , for the love therof . For their continuall succour and satisfaction , safe conduit and comfort , by the righteousnes and glory and pureity therof , as Ps. 19. recovering them , even from the chaines and thralldoom of ignorance , and pit of despaire , by his miraculous grace and reconciliation to serve him : in all perfet knowledge and understanding in the Church and Paradise of God for ever , wherto they are also thankfull and devoteed above measure . And seeing all thes may well content : hee willeth his soul to turn to her rest , shewing how bountifull God hath dealt with him , and resolving to pay ample vowes for the same . Construction . Quoph , of Iaquaph , to invireon or compass , is heer dilateed by snares and torments , and bonds , and misery , strict affliction : and with releas , and deliverance , the opposit terms . Iod , a hand , for death , and hell , and bondes that apprehended him , and had hold of him . Vav , a crook , hath the same sens : but by way of saveing , redeemeing , and deliveringe , and pulling him out of the snares and grave of affliction , &c. Hee would fain bee loosed that hee might serv him , becaus hee is his servant . See the repetition . The three letters make Quaju , they vomited : hee dealeth on the contrary : which is his love and good digestion of the good turns and merceyes of God upon him . Which agree well with the godly by their deliverance when they call upon him . Ier. 25. in so much that they mean to make him recompense by the thankfull service of him . The Mercifull Eternall Jah , the Name of Iehovah is fifteen times repeated . Hee dealeth heer upon Ghimel , as in the 103. And Iah , and therfor ther want three verses of the A B C. Mark diligently the repetition and the kindes of instruments . Deuteronomy . Hee will call and speak and preach much of the Name of God , and celebrate and proclaim his wonderfull merceyes , by daily service , offering and sacrifice , for a recitation . For hee redeemed them from slaveish death of Egypt , and satisfyed them , and gave them rest by Iosua , by phrase of helping or saveing . Mark the words : Name , Call , beseech , death , liveing , bountifull , good turns , Eternall : for merceyfull , Gratious , invocation , servant , pay vowes , in the sight of his people , doubled : in the place of rest . Heb. 4. They make earnest heer , of their delusion of Pharoh by their excuse of departure . Ex. 4.5 . &c. PSALM CXVII . THis Psalme by grace in the last psalme , reaching to the kindenes and truthe , Psal. 115. for which Gods name is so laudable and glorious , and so to psal . 92. wher it is to bee chaunted out for it : and seeing it lighteth upon a seventh , and therfor to require a rest , as also for sanctification of the seventh yeer , after the forty from Aegypt , with a Sabath work of rest for the land , according to the 47. dayes rain before the entering the Ark , & also for the number of the subdueed nations beeing seven , which the loveing kindenes of God , and his faithfullnes overcame : and the strength of his everlasting truthe and his word , hath conquered for them , as psal . 18. and his gentlenes of doctrine hath excelled , and prevailed over them , and fitteth on them , ps . 29. the Church now , wher kindenes & truthe aboundeth , seven times a day , yea infinitely , doo wish the nations and the heathen to prais him , and commend him for his kindenes , with a book of commendations for it : for growing of the word of God and waters of the Law through them and among them : as the number of clean creatures for the pureitey of language , and preferment of a pure profession , ps . 19. becaus ther is so excellent reward of truth and kindenes , the way of Godlynes , psal . 25. Construction . Quoph , of Iaquaph , to compass , is heer the mercy of the Eternall whose property is salvation , for the compassing and saveing of them and pardoning of the Godly . Which is ment the compassing waters : by the nations and people & heathen , of one kinde , and the waters of kindenes and truth , another kinde . And the wordes : to abound or flow over , and asswage . Iod , the second letter from Iadah , to flow , and so from Hodah , to confess , heer for prais and commend : severall words of one sens , so that the sens is doubled , as Shabach , to allay the flood . And bothe agre● with Iod , to confess or publish , preach or celebrate , for a note of repetition . Zain , the third letter is for the auditory : to hear . For hearing is supposed by great commendation & prais , and confession and often repetition . Deuteronomy . The Deuterosy and recitation heer , is the buissines of prais and commendations of the way of God , and the wonderfull abundance and riches of his grace upon them , Ps. 103. Rom. 5.6 . Eph. 1.2 . This hee would have the nations take notice of . How greatly his mercy and fidelity and waters of life exceeded over them . By the name Iehovah , which hath heer a new division : into How , and Iah , as in termination Eli-jahu , Ieshang-jahu , &c. also by inchoation : as in Ie-hosuang , Ie-hoseph , &c. for assistance . Achaz-jah Jeho-shaphat , Io-nadab , &c. For addition . PSALM CXVIII . HEe now propounds in this Psalme the Cup which he promissed , as Ps. 116. of the waters of life , freely to the Church , out of the Law , filled from , Psal. 92. with the benefit of the worship of God , and invocation of his Name : and the worthynes of his reward to God for all , even faith , through which , hee feareth not the threats nor looks of his Enimyes : which is more worth then any confidence in man. Therfor , when hee is infinitely besett and afflicted and corrected : hee findes life and salvation in the word of God and calling upon his name , by works of strange success and kindenes from him , as the whole Church can witnes , whom hee willeth to worship God therfor . And all his testimony shall bee of his salvation which is true , and his o●ely note and song , perpetually of his strange deliverance , Ps. 143. This is the song of salvation that hee goeth into the Church to worship with , and his invocation upon the Law , in the Psalm following : when the Church with great admiration and joy doe entertain , salute and bless him ; with a Hosanna , wishing all prosperity in the Church , for comming in the name of the everlasting God. And the better to welcom him , and that God may the better accept of him , and shine unto them : they sacrifice to him , that hee may worship and extoll the Almighty his God. Hee now greets the Church with a Salve or Ave ; hail or wassail , and cup of salvation , by entring the Ministry and becomming a Preacher of righteousnes , which was strange unto them . For because of the uncleannes of his hands , and impurity of his hart , as Psal. 15.24.51 . rejoiceing at the mercyes of God in him : th●y wish all blessing and prosperity of the same , as Ps. 15.2.4 . with the like congratulation for the Church . And that they had fed upon the rest therof , in remembrance and token of their full and mighty redemption , and great salvation from God : so that the whole Church may confess the everlasting kindenes of God , and worship him . Because his throne is the right hand of God , as psal . 110. and the right hand of God is the Ministry , and that is the word of God , and that is judgement and Iustice , mercey and fidelity , as psal . 89. the conqueror truthe , the written word , that rideeth upon the white hors , and fighteth valiantly : from which oracle , all victory and succour proceedeth ; and all battailes are the Lords and the discipline his : hee now exalteth greatly the dex●erousnes and prosperity therof . And prayeth for an open door of the righteousnes of the Law and knowledge of the word , that hee may enter into the service of him and extoll him , and finde the way to pleas him . That his testimony and song , and burden of his song bee nothing but the everlasting kindenes and salvation of God , and the faithfull recording & testifying therof in presence of his saintes , as psal . 149. and with the help of them . Construction . Quoph , of Iaquaph , to compass or inviron . Heer are divers kindes of compassing : helping & afflicting : helping in thes wordes : kindenes ( & that is continuall help and salvation ) & grace to help , Heb. 4. Tit. 2. Eph. 1.2 . It is of this sort : God is by him and present with him allwayes . The Eternall is with mee , &c. hee is the onely relye and trust and confidence : they compass him , &c. but by his invocation hee circumcised them , and cutt them off . Mark the doubling of the wordes , and kindes of compassing : nations , bees and circumcideing , &c. Iod , for a hand : by the right hand doubled , Jod , to confess , and publish : by worship . Cheth , to prostrate , to cast down , &c. Ier. 23. the three letters Quiach , of Quoach , to take or receive : are intended by the gates & entertainment , hearing and welcom in his name , and also by the term of rejection or refuseing . Hee prayes God to bid him welcom , out of his word and the hous of God , Gen. 28. Mark the repetition : wee beseech thee give salvation : bid God save you , bid God prosper you : wee bless , &c. Deuteronomy . Gods everlasting kindenes in his word is an eternall liveing and food for human men : mighty matters and wonderfull are don by his name and his right hand , for which hee is to be worshiped . Therfor for his recitation heer , hee useeth the wordes : worship , declare , exalt , extoll , say , beseech , &c. sonet and loud voice , for the mightynes of his Acts of salvation . The term Almighty is doubled , and also the abreviation Iah , for Iehovah , and Iehovah , the Eternall , six and twenty times : according to the letters Iehovah , for the mightynes of his salvation and kindenes , Psal. 136. to shew the same : and how beneficiall God hath allwayes been to his people by his Name , Exo. 33. Mark the terms repeated . PSALM CXIX . THe door of righteousnes is a strait gate , and prayer is a narrow entrance , and the way of life is hard to finde , and principles are the surest keyes : therfor in this psalme , hee makeeth every letter a preacher , and keeper of the Law. Hee dealeth not onely by A , B , C , as in other psalmes , to ground them in the profession of Godlines : but by mood and method in all art , to instruct them to felicity , and to crown th●m with eternall life : that is , the best understanding , the wel performing of the Law according to the true sens therof . So as every letter useeth to vary according to the work : this is eight fold , for the number of consequencees and workes of the Law. For now , hee seeketh not the way of the Lord , as ps . 25. nor the fear of God , ps . 34. nor faith , psal . 37. nor the work of God , psal . 111. nor charitable riches , ps . 112. but the whole perfection and light of the Law , ps . 19. the stone that slew Goliah , psal . 9. and perfect way of God , the sunn and moon light of judgement , ps . 19.37 . the flood that drowneth the Enimyes and destroying meteors , ps . 29. and bridle of humility 39. and redemption 49. the cloud 99. the curs of the serpent 109. by note and collection wher all the 22 letters doo shew their skill , in keeping the Law : that hee may drink a helth unto them , as ps . 116. and hee may bee throughly welcom for doctrine , as in the last psalme , haveing on the whole armour of salvation , against all sweet temptation , as of riches , prais and strength and favour . The second , third , fowerth and fifth verses , in R●sh , contein Chronicle : in their first wordes and first letters . For the severall states from the promist and time of peregrination in Egypt , and till they returned to Canaan again 430. for the time of the judges 480. For the time of the Kingdome , till the end of the captivity 477. from thence are the 490 , Daniels weeks to Christ. which St. Math. hath by generations : f●om Abraham to David : to the captivity : and then to Christ. Construction . Quoph , of Iaquaph , to compass , is moste proper the grace and love of God , & the truthe of the word , the way of eternal life , to guard him & save him . Iod , for continuall publication and confession therof . Teth , of Natah , to decline , as the keeping of the Law or swarving from it . Quit , for Quot , to greev or bee yrksom or lothe . Hee disputeth by the contrary : his exceeding love and delight that hee hath to the Law. Therfor that hee might be perfected . Deuteronomy . His recitation heer is of the grace and truthe of the word and of the wonderfull effects of it , propertyes and parts of the Law , which bee 8 , according to Exo. 20. Com. 2. Hee prayeth for mercy infinite , for his infinit love and observation of the same . That hee may have life therby . The Abce is eight-fold : frameed to the eight termes of the Law : so that not one vers in all the Psalme doth fail of som one of the sayd remnes : and ever more in every vers one of them is doubled , to make you mark it . In He , the eighth letter himself , onely excepted . And these bee the words heer meant , by a kinde of Mishne , or duplication , by A B Ces , to eight . PSALM CXX . THese fifteen psalmes have not one word of the Law nor Elohim , the name of God for judgement once in them , wherby it appeereth , they argue tresspass and transgression : according to the title and the stile as for trespass offerings , & for grace and peace , and pardon and forgivenes wholely . Because hee dares not stand to the Law for his salvation , as ps . 130. The number agreeth with Iah , the eternall for his grace and goodnes and continuall presence , Exod. 33. The Iewes affected a heavenly Kingdom , and the heathen them . This Psalme keepeth reckoning of the dayes of strife , Gen. 6. the degrees of excellence of the Law 15 cubits above all nations and Kingdoms of the world , by the baptism of the holy Ghost . The divill was a murtherer from the beginning : the serpent and Enimye of God and his Church , by lyeing and fals dissembling , which is his whole practise against the truthe , for which hee is accursed and condemned . as ps . 109. heerwith hee woundeth moste deeply with greeff , the hart of the Godly , that love the truth● : that a Giants strength can not pierce so deep , with the sharpest arrow ; and kindle-eth hotter wrath and more smarting strife , then can bee resembled by the hotest burning coles that can bee . This Enimye is Meshek and Kedar , an ill neighbour of the Church , the country of Gog , of the sonnes of Iaphet , northward , which yet could not like to bee of Sems religion , beeing sowen among them . For they were mighty , and desireed warr with the Church , and hateed the peace therof . For this , the Church is far from building tabernacles among them for their preachers glory . But for the coursnes of their neighbourhood and entertainment : thought themselves accursed to dwell with them , and the time too long they had spent among them , & the time too long they had spent among them , and set their minde upon them . And becaus they know not what belongeth to this peace and prosperity of the Church , and are good for nothing but to offend it : and have nothing in them but this kinde of persecution , as they are scattered among them : the Church beeing in this woe and d●stress , prayeth for deliveran●e from them . Construction . Quoph , of Iaquaph , to inviron , is heer to gird too streit , by the termn distress or affliction . Hee is besieged with spitefull and contentious neighbours . Thes 15. compass , by the figure Anadyplosis , duplication or repetition , according to Mishne torah . Of the suns goeing back , Is. 38. adding to the kings dayes , by life of the Law.

Not to talk grace or truth , or to medle with a godly way , or repeating of God his miraculous works , or confessing his kindnes , or preaching his truthe and eternall life : beeing Enimyes to peace . What shall it give , &c. What shall it add : &c. Which is heer for recitation . They can not doo God any service , beeing quite opposite . PSALM . CXXI . BY faith all men are made the sonnes of God , therfor stand fast in the faith , for by faith yee stand . This psalme is fitted to the former , to shew the succour & releeff for such distress . That against the fals-hood , ther is no such strength as uprightnes , and no such confidence as in a cleer conscience , and in right perfection , and no such preservation as that of the Creator him self . That whatsoever is well preserved and don , and wrought according to God , Io. 3. is likewise well saveed and easily defended and mainteined . And for this the Church hath their beleeff and faith in God the maker of heaven and earth , for their ready help in distresses , as Ps. 46.115 . and for their continuall preservation . Seeing , that as a father hath pitty on his ●wn childe , and a mother succoureth that shee bringeth foorth : so that ther will wan● no care and vigilancey in the Creator , for succour and maintenance and preservation of the creature ( who will not sleep ) from the shadow of the word from Ierusalem , on their right hand , that is on their south side , and instruction from thence . And so all things may bee possible unto them , for their deliverance , to keep them that they fall into no ill wayes , that no season or weather , shall hurt them . That they bee not sunn bu●nt and scorched with infamy and ignominious reproche : and bee safe from the greatest dominions on either side , round about them . That all their goeing out and in , all their Exodus , and leading of their lives from morning till evening , and from day to day , shall bee with security , from time to time for ever . Construction . Quoph , of Iaquaph , to inviron , as standers by one , or to one , as helpers and assisters , Ps. 94. a shadow at the right hand , for a Defendour and a Protector . Ps. 16. Ier. 3.

THough I had all faith , that I could remove mountaines , and had not love , it were nothing : love is better then any sacrifice , love fullfilleth the Law , love is the end of the comandemment . Ro. 13. 1. Tim. 1. Math. 22. Therfor hee that judgeth rightly of it , is not far from the kingdom of God. The peace of God passeth all understanding , and keepeth the hart in knowledge and love of him ; therfor except the church bee well seasoned with knowledge , and have peace one with an other : faith is not so dureable , so firm , so constant and so forceible . For without knowledge followeth no beleeff , nor any conclusion , without circumstance . nor any rock without a sound demonstration , nor effect without charity : which is , by mariage and Affinity of consequencees , and aptnes and likeing by conjugation ▪ that whatsoever can bee concludeed , likeed , and also agreed upon , by the Church , what ever it bee : that undoubtedly is made possible . Therfor all is to bee don in Love , for love hath boldnes , and ther is no fear in love . So what can bee beleeued , but that which the love and affectation and combination of the causes , & concord in all moodes may perform ? or what beleeff in Christ , except , the ground work bee love ? for knowledge puffeth up , but love edifieth . And for this hee prooveth the amiablenes of Ierusalem and the glory of the Church of God , and allurements therunto , Psalm . 87. ( to abide in the Law of God is to keep his commandements ) by the construction : the resort , the Excercise , for fraternity , freendship & acquaintance , & the house of God that is in it ; for which hee loveeth it moste deerly , and wisheth peace about it , and prosperity within it , and that all may prosper that love it ; and delighteeth so much , to goe up unto it , and remain in it . Construction . Quoph , of Iaquaph , to compass or inviron : as by the trenches and palacees , that are about the citty , for peace . Alludeing to the Name of the citty , Is. 20.32.60 , Ps. 48.147 . By their greeting and saluteing and freendly wishes , is meant their manner , which is bowing , for Caph , the second letter , as Mich. 6. by bidding & wishing their welth and peace , as Math. 10.

This is the place of repeating and admireing , & recreating of all flesh with the word , and remembrance of all God his works and goodnes to them , Ps. 65. which they frequented ; and whither they solemnly resorted therfor : Zach. 14. Mark the repetition and commendation of it . Both for preaching and judgeing and correcting of them . PSALM CXXIII . BY these degrees they get up into celestiall dwellings , highe placees , and roomes of godlynes and spirituall understanding , by which all principality and power is subdueed , and the captiveers them selves captiveed , as Ps. 68. And they are made a complet building and temple of holynes , and divine knowledge , and replenished with the fullnes of God. From which Asscension and cogitation beeing higher then any heaven : all degrees of Ministers according to their measure and gift for th● gathering of the Saincte , are furnished . Eph. 4. Now that this Psalme and the former , as they touch , so that they may bee seen to concern ech other : mark the property of love , it suffereth long and beareth all things . And again becaus God hath his whole dwelling in these heavenly placees , and they are in so base esteem , and skorned ( among the proud Quiescents , by them that are at case ) for their poverty , by which they have long remained in great derision ; as servants stedfastly look and gape and tend at their masters handes for meat and wagees : so the Churches eyes are bent unto the father of spirits , looking for som spirituall grace , that hee will pitty them and give them som heavenly reward and victory and salvation . For their singular suffering and waiting . Construction . Grace mercy and peace , the comun safegard of the Apostles is heer the invironing , for Quoph , the first letter , by doubling of the termn pitty : as also of the name Eternall . For countenance , Exod. 33. Psal. 84. The contrary , is skorn and contempt , that they have their fill of in time of captivity , by proud invadeers . Like the frozen and setled ones , Zeph. 1. The despisers and deriders , Iob. 12. Ne. 4. Mat. 6. Luc. 16. Pro. 30. Caph , of Caphaph , the second letter , to bow , oppressed , made to stoop & bowed . Ghimel , the third letter , reward : the giveing of grace and countinance for their waiting , as fit gifts for children . And this , as it is the work of the eye , Prov. 30. So hee that dwelleth in the heavens , the great regarder and great derideer is prayed unto , Psal. 2. Ma●k the repetition through out agreeing . Deuteronomy . Hee that prayeth unto God , doth glorifye God , Psal. 50. hee that commeth unto God , confesseth that God is : his praying for countenance , is as much as confessing and publishing of his grace , and repeating of his eternall life , and everlasting way , and wonderfull work of salvation . Thes 15 Psalmes have a figurative excellence in them , Is. 38. returning , and reciteing , and climeing higher and higher , to heaven and understanding , by words . PSALM CXXIV . MOnt Sion was the glory of Ierusalem , and the Musitians the glory of Sion , as Psal. 87. and thes Psalmes the glory of the Musitians . The mery songs of Sion , which they so much longed to hear , and inquireed for , in Babilon , Ps. 137 by which men are sung alive again from death , every Psalme beeing a step from misery , and a step to honour , and that of the Kingdom of heaven : from the greatest ignorance and darknes , to the greatest knowledge and light . Heerby , the Apostles sing open the prison doores , and sing off the bandes of their feet ( for the word of God is not bound , Psal. 68. Act. 16. 2. Tim. 2. ) and take the keeper prisoner . For heer is a new earth , a new citty and a new Sion , and a new tabernacle of God with men , and a new and a heavenly knowledge in man , a new man which captiveeth all power , and can not bee captiveed . The fruit of the spirit beeing in all goodnes righteousnes and truthe , sendeth out such hymnes and Psalmes and spirituall songes of thanks , of melody in their hartes for salvation ; that maketh all manner of subjection captivity , and bonds and imprisonment tolerable . God is ever good unto his people , and ever neer his elect , as Ps. 73 to glorify his chosen , as Psal. 84.86 . when all the troubles and malice and anger in the world , aros and kindled against them . And hee cracketh all the building and plots of the Enimye , by his goodnes & kindenes , when hee is called upon , as Ps. 118. After long waiting , as Ps. 40. and great affliction , as Ps. 90.109 . when the people of God bee even eaten up alive , with reproche , and scornful biteing and defamation at the handes of the proud : at last God useeth to bee good and gratious and mercyfull and comfortable unto them , by takeing thē , out of thos lions jawes , which in long gapeing get the cramp and neuer close again . And though a world of nations , like stoods of Enimyes , set upon them : yet ther is that dullnes in their understanding , and sottery in proceeding , & dissention , and division , and imperfection in the manifacture of their cordes , which they lay , that they are soon brokeen : for the devill beeing author of confusion & of discord : they no better agree one with another , then they agree with the Church , and their work is soon destroyed . For the works of discord are not st●ong nor durable . And thus oftē times , by the muteny of the Enimye the Church is safe : as in Aegypt , Assur , Babilon , &c. Absolom , &c. wher the salvation of the Godly is out of the sight of the wicked , and they have a miraculous deliverance , and all by their invocation and calling upon the Name of God , and serving of their Creator , as 92. which in due time heareth , yf they faint not . And this is the Experience and hope which they have by patience , wherby this Psalme suiteth with the former . Construction . Quoph , of Jaquaph , to invi●on , is of the compassing of the E●imy by the abundance and inundation of them : compared to the swelling of Iordan and the proud warrs of the men of Adam , & their invasion , Ios. 3. of the Church , Iob 22. Ps. 42.116 . Ier. 12. Ion. 1. The opposition is Gods present assistance and standing to them and with them , by his existens and name Iehovah . And about them in helping , Rom. 8. Consider the first and last wordes doubled . Caph , for bowing down , and pressing of the Enimye in captivity : by snares and waters , to wit , the 70 of Babel . See the affecting of Iod , with Zain , in Azza , and in Zedonim , to be multiplyed for 70. as Zain & Gnain , Ps. 25.34 . Daleth , a door , is Gods discipline and remedy , as the Medes and Persians , to dissolve the captivity of the Babylonians . Mark the repetition to all . Deuteronomy . Thes songes of return bee sufficient conf●ssion of Gods mercyfull , and miraculous deliverance , which hee would have the Church still in minde of , and to use them for repetitions , as beeing so much bound for their salvation , to him . PSALM CXXV . THey that beleeve not , shall not bee established . Righteousnes . and God , and the Kingdom of God is the same thing : for other gifts of government are conteined in it . Ther is no stedfastnes but in justice , nor any trust or beleeff or assurance but in the everlastingnes therof , becaus , for this are Gods people immutable and immovable , haveing the light of the Law , and the glory therof shineing about them , to guard them for ever . That ther shall no wicked dominion , Lordship or punishment rest wher the righteous dwell , becaus they doo not wrong , as Psal. 15. and that the wicked doo overgripe themselves , that medle with them , and are forceed to loos their hold , and releas their captivityes . Therfor hee that seeketh righteousnes seeketh all , and hee that seeketh it , findeeth all . It is found in the Law , called the face of God , as Psal. 24. that pure Israel only seeketh , and is blessed therwith . The Church now prayeth for judgement : favour to the upright , strait and plain mindeed men ; and condemnation to the variable and crooked , and declineers in hell , with the mischevous and evill dooers , as Ps. 5. That Israel may once have peace , and the Ark have rest , and the Church never faile . Mat. 16. Construction . Quoph , the compassing heer is in the term about , as the hills , and the eternall Existence . God doth guard his people by his providence : the wicked shall not rest among them for fear of corrupting them : the confident and faithfull shall not miscarry , no more then hills or rockes , Mat. 16. and this is the Eternall presence of God , & the faithfull according to the third letter , He , behold , and the absence of the wicked that must not com nighe the Righteous . The faithfull are define●d : good and upright , strait and direct in their harts , against declineers and benders , and wrong and crooked wayes : and this for Caph , to bend or crook also . So the cherishing of the good and the banishing of molesters , is the way of peace . Caph , a hand , or a shaft or rod , as of the wicked . Mark the repetition . Deuteronomy . Ieshurun , and Israel are acted , as Deut. 32. Ies. 44. that the uprightnes of Israel should bring peace to Israel . What is Israel but a quint-offence of uprightenes , and pureity , to whom , God useeth to bee beneficiall ? Mark Jesharim and Israel : all they that trust &c. his people , all the righteous , all good and upright , &c. and this may serve for a rehearsall also . PSALM . CXXVI . YF God bee made unto us wisdom , righteousnes and sanctification and redemption : hee that rejoyceth , let him rejoice in the Lord , for highe degrees of knowledge , and exaltation into a paradise of revelation . Let him rejoyce in the service and worship of him , and the calling upon his Name , as Ps. 92. in the time of peace , for in troubles when they are not with themselves , they are farr from God , and can not com nighe him in time of wrath , as Psal. 32. Now out of the greatest sorrow springs the greatest joy , and out of abundance of suffering , abundance of consolation : and the Church hath been often fetched out of the mire , and deep pit of destruction , and the midst of hell , Ps. 69.130 . and by the mercyes of God ; in keeping still life in them , in their captivityes , and raising them again and redeeming them , from the torment and thralldom of their consciences and themselves , to the wonder of the world , yea in the sight of the Heathen : which useeth to strike such passion of joy into the veines and hart of them , that they could not choos but laugh and sing in their sleep , for their peace and redemption , which was their whole affection and waiting beeing awake : and in this they had their full desires , that their joyes might bee full . Now confessing and magnifying Gods great works of kindenes toward them before , in divers reductions of them from divers countryes : they pray that hee would now , by that example , bring them again from the rest , as the Southeren rivers , return & flow from the south : that out of a heavy seednes of deprivation , they beeing scattered and sowen thus among the heathen ; ther may bee a joyfull return of them , like a merry and fruitfull harvest of Sheaves . Construction . Quoph , is heer returning , & comming about , or back again as the dayes of the yeer , Ps. 19. 2. Sam. 11. Iob 1. For the dayes of life , Is. 38. also bringing about , or to pass , or compassing , or effecting much , &c. Caph , of Caphaph , to bow or bend , the lamentable depressing of them ; Psal. 146. captivity and holding , and seed lep , and sheaves , and gripes , for Caph , a hand also . Vau , a crook , or hook : for their deportation and redemption also , and for fellowship : so heer is a time to weep , and a time to laugh , Eccl. 2. counterfeteed upon the story of Ishak for the mery return of the promissed seed , with so great increas , Am. 7. Gen. 16.17.21 . Gal. 4. Is. 1. Rom. 9. By the word Laughter , &c. The name of Isaak . Mark the repetition , Psal. 14.53 . Deuteronomy . They increased and grew in their bondage , like that in Aegypt , as men fed in their sleep and grown fat , Iob. 39. and multiplyed in their captivity , which was a great work of Gods mercey and kindenes , for the heathen to note , and to make them merry . PSALM CXXVII . OVt of joy proceedeth comfort & consolation , in this Psalme & the next : the Churches sheaves of posterity , and other gifts of peace , for the rest and peace of the Church . becaus the idolatrous care of this world chokeeth the joy in the Kingdom of God , and stifleth all comfort and consolation in the word , and in the holy Ghost : and because the Church hath all their reward and strength by inheritance from the service of God , Ps. 16. and the Prophets are the barrs of the citty gates , Ps. 147 and all comfort and quietnes , secureity and boldnes against theyr Enimyes , by youthfull fruitfullnes of a Godly issue , and are moste blessed from the love of him : In this Psalme , from Salomons overmuch preparation , for Rehoboam , a simple sonne : the vanity of to much provision , is moste wisely describeed . For heerin , men fall into divers temptations : when their work is not spirituall , nor their building God. For they build with things not theirs , and for want of due right , and property , there wanteth concord , and for want of concord , no construction or building can go up , or stick together ; nor no care in the world can keep such together ; that which God provideth not . As in the building of Babel . Gen. 11. and edification in st●ange tonges : for in Babel , the stones of Ierusalem will not serve for building : they can make no workmanship of them : they feed upon Idolatry , and labour in vain : walls nor watchmen can hold them ; they know not what to doo with these spirituall stones , but send them home as the Philist●ns did the Ark. Construction . Quoph , to inviron , is the building for defence , and strong watch about the citty . The house of Israel cannot be safe and sure , but upon the covenants and promises of God , and instructions of the word . this psalme is to be construed from Gen. 15 : 2. Sa. 12. 2. Cro. 23. La. 3. 1. Cro. 22. 1. Cor , 3. Pro. 8. the restoring of the captivity is the reward of children Ier. 31. as well as the birth , ps . 2. for building , Gen. 16.30 . Caph , bowed , Caph , a hand , to contein , or quiver , or belly , arrows , and children : See build , builders , hous , citty , children , fruit of the womb , children of youth , arrows , they shall bring forth their building with pain and sorrow , opposed to contentment : for neither walls nor watching can save their citty : but good education and godlines . Zain to hear , or conceive the doctrine of the word , or edification , such is Gods building , and such are his children , as it is good to build , and not a vain th●ng : but a thing that will indure . He writes upon Gnir , a citty , which is derived from Gnir , to erect or build and also to watch . Therefore he us●th all kindes both of building and watching , and by sundry termnes . mark the repetition . Deuteronomy . The children of God are well edified , and no better defens nor security can be , than good edification out of his word : it is a blessed thing to abound with them , and not a vain thing . He sheweth : it is the Lords work to restore them , and that they cannot stand nor consist without him : which is a wonderfull kindenes : the contenting and blessing of his beloved . PSALM CXXVIII . A Mischeevous end belongeth to the wicked , by reason of falsshood and deceit , but to the godly and just man , no temptation shall take them , but that which they may well bear , neither shall one bone of them be broken , or any temptation impaire them at all , that truely follow the way to peace : but ( for all happines ) their labours of their hands shall follow them , and stick unto them , to cherish them . It shall be good and dureable becaus of the equity thereof , chiefly , their wives : the greatest blessings : they shall have them to stick fast to the hous● sides , shewing their love : they shall have no wandering thoughts , but be ever about the house , so that h●r husband never want her , nor suffer widdowhood ; and she shall be fruitfull , to imbolden him ; she shall bring up his children to stick round about his table , to grace him ; and that there be no dispersion : and that he shall see one generation under another , of children , dureing the peace and wealth of the church , which he shall see all his life . In Ierusalem dwelt of all nations , men that feared God , that were learned in the kingdom of God , and could speak this language of righteousnes , and peace , and other gifts of the holy ghost ( being not in word but in power ) one to another , beeing of divers countreys . For in this is the Church greatly beholding to God , and is to thank him for it , because they are made rich in all kinde of speech , and knowledge , and doctrine of the holy ghost , that they bee not destitute of any gift : and hereby they speak all one thing , with one accord , and without dissention , beeing of one minde , and of the same iudgement . The gifts of the minde are heavenly gifts , and no musique is comparable to them , nor any kingdome to that government , and the harmony thereof , but to the sweetnes of concord , and of peace , when all agree to hold together by it , as the souldure or band of the rest : no one gift can be equalled thereunto . Peace joyneth all nations together and reconcileth them in Christ : that they are no longer strangers of foreiners : but all neer kin and well acquainted in Christ , and citizens with the saints , and of the houshold of God. Heer is an high coronation , and heerby men raign as kings : when all is thus tuned and brought in peace , peace-offerings are due , and such sacrifice as this of thanks to be sung . Therfor , whatsoever things are true , honest , just , or pure or belong to love , or of good report : if there be any vertue , or if there be any prais : these things are to be thought upon , and the God of peace shall be with them . For in whom dwelleth the fulnesse of these things : he it is that reconcileth all and setteth at peace , even Christ : this is the unworldly peace that God giveth , that the heart be never troubled not in fear , and which overcommeth all affliction in the world : And thus are they sanctified throughout , and by peace are made happy that are the children and servants of God. Construction Quoph , of Jaquaph , to compasse , is his wife , the vines wedded to the house sides and his children waiting at the tabl● , for helps & good additions to him . Caph , for bowing , or subjection , like the obedient vine , & olive plants , alludeing to Cippath , a vine branch , as Caph , a hand &c. Cheth to fear , as Mal. 2. Hee sheweth what is no vain work , but a blessed work , and what the blessings bee : consider the doubling of the words : happy , blessed , welth , well , peace , loe : and so alluding to the name Ierusalem , they shall see peace . children , fear , &c. Hee worketh evermore upon the divers sens of the word . Deut●ronomy . the confession heer is , what felicity there commeth of a godly life : they have their harts desire : and they shall be blessed out of Zion with eternall life : they shall have posterity and peace , and all delight with it . ps . 37. with the kinde God will shew himself kinde , &c. ps . 18. The story of Abraham is again thought upon , as Gen. 12. for his blessing . &c. Hee will blesse them that blesse him . &c. Luk. 1. PSALM . CXXIX . ALl the culture and tillage of the wicked is upon the backs of the godly : that is , their whole field , where they sow all mischeif , is a spoiling , and defacing of their lives , and all the pains they take is against them . They overlode them , as Ps. 68. they urge them , torment them and constrein them , and overwork them , and tire them with temptation , they drive them , and pursue them , that the whip is never off their backs , and all their devises , cogitations , and plots are to destroy them . And for this they draw all together , and are a teem alwayes harnessed , ps . 83. and ready to plow vpon them , and ride them . And this the Church found in Egypt , Edom , and Moab , in Canaan , in Ashur , and Babilon , in great measure , and with great continuance ; yea out of measure and without c●asing . yea though they galled them sore , and prevailed not : yet they never give over , they are never at lands end , they never throw up the plow , their furlongs are endles , and their enmity lasteth still . They must suffer crosses that will live godly , and they must long bear that will be blessed , and the crosses of the church for their profession , are innumerable : by tyranny , fear , threatning : treacherie , robbing , revenge ; wars , captivities , and other trialls , and they make an excercise of bearing of them . They are to be commended for this high degree of patience , which they call long-suffering , a great gift of government . Such crosses and affliction and tribulation must be undergone and carried , and must be rejoyced in , for that glorious victory and coronation of them that endure and hold out , and overcome , and are excellent in those uncarnall thoughts , and , spirituall gifts of the minde promised . Thus is the loss of life , the salving and preserving of it , the changing of a worse for a better ; that tribulation bringing patience , and patience bringing experience , and experience hope , and hope the things hopeed for : that men be not ashamed of their hope , or the vanitie thereof , as Ps. 25. Now because this is the justice of God to succour the Iust. and a just thing with him , to recomp●nse vengeance to the troublers of the godly , and to them that hate them for the word : the church prayeth , that it may be after this sort , that even still one thing for another , and like for like ; for envying Zion and the prosperity therof , and of all the Church : nothing may prosper that they put their hands too , and they may be ashamed of every purpose , and fail of all their attempts against it . Ps. 132. that God would cut their harness that they draw by , unyoke them and uncouple them , and chop their weethes and cords in peeces , & destroy utterly their husbandry , that they may retire with shame , availing themselves nothing , but retire and take off their hands for shame and their purposes may wither , and all their thoughts be extinguished , and stare out their eies with looking for , and become mad with their hope , and cut off ere they see their desires : That they may labour for nothing , and they may be ashamed of their crop , that for nothing bear malice and hatred and arms against it ; that they may have neither harvest nor blessing of all their plots and devises , to delight them . Construction . Quoph , to compasse or inviron is heer to afflict , of Zarar , to gird strait or strain hard or wring or oppress : by which word , three times and three severall wayes is the number 490 conteined and expressed , to signifie the determining of the judgements of God upon Israel , though long , euen seventy sevenfold . Gods justice cuts the band of wrong , and sets them at libertie and releaseth them out of the hands of Satan , their captivity & sore distress . Caph , bowing or stooping , is the plowing upon their backs and oppressing of them , by so long ridges upon them . there is a ridge of furrows , and a ridge of a house or hous top , for a back : as they torment one kinde , that the other may fail , and they may turn the back . Caph , a hand also : for holding and griping &c. oppression is rewarded with improsperitie , as the wicked keep down the Church : so they accursed for want of maintenance do fade . Teth , to decline and bow , also for the soil where the tillage is . Mark the repetition of the words . Hee is still in the story of Abraham , hee will curs them that curs him &c. Gen. 12. Ps. 80. Deuteronomy . Hee observeth the frequent and sore adversity of Israel from a childe , yet God still mainteined them , and cut off their enimies : therefore they should justly confess him . They that hate the church shall be accursed . PSALM CXXX . THis is the way unto Abrahams bosom , this way men know Abraham and keep him company in the kingdom of God , prepareing for grace and mercy and not for justice and judgement Ps , 143. The Church weighing their iniquity , and their suffering : they finde their afflictions nothing to their deserts . And weighing their afflictions with the glory that they look for : they finde their crosses short of it , and not to be accounted worthy of such an eternall weight as is promised to the children of God , by their adoption which live in admiration of all spirituall glory , and not of temporall things : which by suffering are made heirs , and com unto the kingdom of God : and so rare and so high a calling and freedom , from corrupt slavery of sinn . For this cause is every creature of God brought under hope , and waiteth continually , to see their day of redemption ; and considering their vanity with unexpressible fervency , grone for it ; and the spirit , that knoweth their minde helpeth them . By which hope and long waiting , in as much as it is with all stedfastnes , as Ps. 40. they get their degree in the kingdome of God ; and are saved , with much rejoycing and continuall prayer , never to be ashamed of . This hope commeth by patience , and comfott of the scriptures ; becaus all thes afflictions happen to him for love to the word , and observing Gods commandements , Ps. 119. Z. Sh , Which hope is laid up for them in heaven , to be fullfilled with all knowledge and spirituall understanding , and the mystery of God , by the grace of God. And heerof have you for example ; ; Noah , Daniel , and Iob : their blessed end . This hope is for things not to bee seen , all things working for the best thus their degree : to bee predestinated , and called , and chosen , and justified , and glorified , and saved . Therfor no tribulation , nor no persecution , nor famine , nor nakednes , nor perill , nor sword , nor any other adversity or prosperitie , loss or preferment , present or future , high or low or any thing els in the world , can cut off their waiting for this glory , and this kingdom : but they shew themselves approved in all things , and tryed men in all crosses of the world ; which are the very Accents of holines . And for this is their uncessant calling upon God , in their deep distresses , not to regard their sinnes and iniquities . but seeing he was so reverend , for pardon and forgivenes , and was so kinde and so full of redemption : which is the hope of Gods calling : and that he would hear him , and set Israel in the right way , forgive him , and redeem him ; and this with an exceeding hope , more then that of the watchmen , for their r●st . Construction . Quoph , to compas , iniquities , Ps. 49. Deeps Ion. 2. Ps. 69. where ther is no standing : so all are cast by iniquities which have hold of them . Lamed , learning , is waiting , and attending , and contending , redemption , and forgivenes , and releas of captivity , and bondage of the divell and all their enimies , Is. 64. Ier. 33.31 . Prov. 16. Neh. 9. Hos. 14. both the letters make Quol , , a voice , the Lords attention , and revealing of his word , releaseth and redeemeth , being full of pardon and grace . Quol , is taken also for word , which is the promised forgivenes . and redemption from tr●spass . This belongeth to Rulers and therfor Lord , is doubled . Quol , also is thunder , which is terrible judgement out of the word , that no man is able to abide it . Qual is gentle , light , and easy : as is forgivenes . Mark well the repetition of all the termns , and reckoning of the kindes : of voices , waitings , and forgivenes &c. His waiting is to be set once free of his crosses and his incumbrances , which he calls iniquities , by proper grace of the Eternall . Like a servants waiting for his maisters comming . Mat. 24. Deuteronomy . It is wrought upon the story of Iacobs wrestling Gen. 21.32 . Hos. 12. and waiting and earnest request is a kinde of wrestling for grace . As Iacob wrestled : so Israel must wait . Mark the doubling of Israel , and repeating of Lord so oft , to signifie might and power of prevailing , uppon El , in Isra-el the mighty . And this reciteth a wonderfull grace and blessing of God , and kindenes to his people . PSALM CXXXI . BLessed are the poor in spirit , the lowly and meek , the humble and quiet minded men , and such as suffer persecution for righteousness ; for they shall raign and excell in heavenly gifts , and also inherit the earth , Ps. 37. And be called the children of God. O Zion , behold , thy king commeth , meekly sitting uppon an ass . By meeknes and gentlenes , every thought and imagination against God , and every high thing is cast down and captiveed , and subdued and made nothing worth . for all the kingdome of God is in suffering , and willing and gentle submission and obedience ; by which ; by haveing themselves in command : they overcome and cast down invincible holds . A little contenteth these men , and all things are bestowed upon them : they seek the celestiall kingdome , and riches of godlines , and want nothing that is good : so , as when they suffer , it is in hope , and also in meeknes , not grudgeing , nor resisting , nor murmuring : therfor he subdueth his mind from high conceits and far and forrein hopes , and great and secret things to the plain and easy things of the law and commandments , neer at hand , and hard by him . In this subjection he hath his minde by the Law , that meekly waiteth on him like a wainling : so that the Law and hee , are inseparable , and his minde alwayes a companion with God , by haveing his word alwayes in his mouth , and in his heart ; and thus he would have Israel wait upon God for ever . Construction . Quoph , to compass , is heer the compassing of the heart ; the wilde affection of the minde . Eccl. 7. Is. 10. Ps. 101. Pro. 6. known by thes tokens , the lust of the flesh , and of the eyes , and pride of life : all worldly aspireing and ambitious appetite , 1 , Ioh. 2. not fit for a scholler . Lamed , and Al●ph , for learning , and instruction : they make Lo , not so , that hee is no such : but humble and a reformed man , meek and docible , fit to attend doctrine , and the pleasure and kindenes of God. He is not carried away with pride and worldly pleasure , but is content to be taught : as a childe his A. B , Ce. Is. 28. and so hee sheweth by a double mention of the first letters of the rew . And is contented with the things revealed , Deut. 29. And so hee would have Israel to bee perpetually . All the three letters make Quala , to dis-esteem , as hee was vile in his own eyes . Mark these words repeated : soul , waiting , not , &c. and words varyed : high , lofty , great , hard , opposed to tame , and plain , and wained , &c. as Aspireing to contentment . Deuteronomy . All waiting of Israel is for grace and kindenes , and performance of promiss to such as bee fitt , and adopted , and chosen , &c. while Israel serveth , &c. PSALM . CXXXII . THer is a majesty of Godlines , & ther is a heavenly countenance of pure religion , but zeal and devotion make the dignity therof : that a man may be found approoved , and in all pointes perfect and holy before God. Which is hee● shewed by Davids vow , and the Lords , considering both : that is , the place that David so devourly sought for , and found : the Lord so much delighted and affected .

THe Church beeing setled in a quiet conscience , and haveing a peacable Kingdom within them : hee now commeth to the admiration of the goodnes and the benefit , the glory and the sweetnes of it . Wher hee makeeth the subjects all of one degree : wher ther is no difference , between the servant and the sonne , male and female , servant and servant , far or neer : ther beeing one maister and father and reconcileer unto all ; for they are both by grace and both by adoption : nor between Iew and gentile , bond or free ; for ther is a redemption from bondage , and a freedom from servitude , to which , as well they in the house as out of the hous , are predestinated ●o becom all alike the children of God , beeing led by the spirit of God. And thus Christ was before Abraham , and thus Abraham rejoyced to see his dayes , by haveing the same Kingdom and religion in his bosom . So that ther is no priority or preheminence heer , to take place : and as they are all children and sonnes of God by faith : so they are all heires , and all part-takeers of the Kingdom and blessednes therof , as they have been part-takeers of the suffering belonging to it .

For bestowing the same blessing upon them , even everlasting life .

HEe sheweth that all was don in the Creation , by intellectuall power , and that that highe Godhead and soveraigne Lordship only , did with his mighty hand , and long reaching arm , all the wonderfull works in the world , of his goodnes and his mercey , Psal. 23. and his everlasting Kingdom of kindenes and compassion : in cutting off the ungodly , and saveing of the Church : in thinking upon them in their low estate , and setling them in their enimyes land , and provideing food for all flesh , the unperishing food of his word : the searching wherof , is the bread of eternall life , and an everlasting nuriture . So the wicked are visited justly , for ignorant worship and workmanship , to the sowerth degree , of the ungodly and disobedient : but his mercy is to last for thousands , even for ever , to the Godly and obedient ; rebellion against the word beeing a sinn of witche craft , and transgression , moste wicked idolatry .

For this Godhead of understanding , beeing the God of all possiblity , and to whom nothing is impossible or hard , but all his wayes are secrets , and miraculous in the eyes of man , wherby , all was made and facioned , and revealed , preserved and maintened , and by perpetuall judgement , defended and saveed : how absurd then is the imploreing of sensless aide , against all rule of creation , and against the Kingdom of grace prayed for ? Yf hee doth the things which no man els doth , why beleeve they him not ? yf not for his own sake , yet for his works , hee ought to bee beleeved in , and trusted unto . Therfor , that they worship that wonderfull Creator , defender and preserver , the God of heaven , that made the heaven and the earth , the sea and all fountains for his infinite works of mercey , grace and compassion , in his Kingdom , by his heavenly light of wisdom , reason and knowledge , invented , disscerned and brought in frame : and not so placable Gods of their own makeing wherin against all reason and understanding the Creature is set in place of the Creator , and a man worshipeth what hee will , and contenteth himself as hee will , which is moste monstrous . For this invention yeeldeth no correction , nor am●ndment , and is no part of the Kingdom prayed for , seeing no obedience is due to the work of a mans own hands , no more then the father should obey the childe , or child●en lay up and provide for their parents . Therfor , who so ever receiveth not the Kingdom of God , as a litle childe , for correction and obedience ; hee shall not enter therinto . Construction .

IN this psalme , the Iewes shew care in pleasing God , rather than man ; their Creator , Redeemer , and Inductor , rather than their captiveer and suspender : for either they will not sing at all , and hang up their harps ; or if they will have them to sing , it shall be that which they have little pleasure to hear , for fear of takeing Gods name in vain , and transgressing his will , in vain rejoyceing , in their heavy season , against their harts ; or makeing their enimies mery , with their sacred and good things , which God would not allow of . So that after they have made it a hard thing to sing , for people in their case , and harder to rejoyce , with holy songs of Sion : and that they did not think it meet to sing thes holy things , among such houndes , in a strange and an enimies land : yet that the name of Sion , and fame of Ierusalem , may not be forgotten by them : they take down their harps and apply their fingers , and looss their tongs from the rooffs of their mouthes ; to shew , that all their joy and delight , was in Ierusalem , and not with them ; all their song is nothing but a bitter prayer to God for a terrible revenge and payment upon them . That as the Edomites , incouraged to destroy Ierusalem to the ground , to the utter ruine and desolation of it : and no less could content them , and the destroying citty Babel ; performd as much : that now , God would remember all their dealing , and make them happy that should require them treble , ps . 94. with a merciless revenge and destruction , uppon them . that ther may be no mercy to the merciless or their children , but that it may pleas God , to dash them all in peeces against the stones , with an utter confusion and destruction of them . And this , lest they should transgress the third commandment , and displeas their God , at their enemies request , to use his name unprofitabely , and deserv new punishment , and disobey his known will , and be worse beaten than before , after their return home . And becaus all pleasure is a kinde of idolatry , but the true and only worship of God ; they will not pleas themselves nor their enemies , with one word of their lips , ps . 16. nor shed one drop of prais , or sacrifice any commendation to them at all .

PSALM CXXXVIII . HEaring is the way to Christ , and Moses and the Prophets are the Doctors to draw men unto him , for they shall be all taught of God ; and this teaching and hearing is the Sabbath work of refreshing and reviveing the miserable and dead-comfortless soule of man , ps . 113. This is the food of the congregation , the miraculous sustenance out of the Law and Testaments , that lasteth from meal to meal : with full cupbordes for ever , as ps . 144. That whereof every disciples basket , and his store is blessed with increas : and for this is the day to be kept holy and sanctifyed , for the presence of God and his word in it , that sanctifyeth the hearers . Which presence yf God vouchsafe not : the people are forsaken and perish , for want of his kingdom . Now that in this psalme , hee may seem to sanctifie the Sabbath , and to keep it holy : he layeth down precisely all the circumstance of his behaviour , and the worship , and keeping of it ; and that most from ps . 92. that hee may seem more capable of this food and sanctifycation of the spirit : by the manner , the presence , the place the end and the reason of all . As thus , he will worship God with all his heart , he will chant him out before the gods and Angels , and judges , hee throwes himself prostrate at his temple , hee worships his Name for his loveing kindenes and his faithfullnes ; and that because he hath made his promise greater than all his Name , ps . 12. Now becaus his worship is so perfect : hee desireth to bee heard in the day and time of his calling , and that he would sustein , with great strength , in his minde , and releev him largely . That all the kings of the world might likewise worship God , when they have him and his wordes ; and sing of his wayes and of his great glory , which are his miraculous and wonderfull wo●ks of kindenes : also of his promiss and faithfulnes . Now becaus he is high , and beholdeth the low and the mean ones : psal . 113 : and seeing hee is lofty and kenneth farr , and his word findeth men out every wher : hee prayeth now , that God would bestow his heavenly food and bread of sustenance uppon him . That as we labour all the week to rest the sabbath : so that we may be fed in the sabbath , to bee able , to labour all the week . That is , that of a man in great distress and in the midst of sorrows : he would make him a cheerfull man , and revive him ; and being besieged round about with adversity , that he would lay his hand upon his enemies face , and blindefold them , and by the prosperous and dexterous right hand of his ministry , save him . And that God , who is the onely doer about him , and his kindenes is for ever : would not now forsake the works of his own hands , and creatures of his Law ; and that he would never fail them with his kingdom that bringeth all things with it : but let him see the fulnes , and pleasure , and joy at his right hand , beeing his portion and cup and inheritance ps , 16.116 .

IN this psalme beginning with Trespass : hee sheweth by the stones of triall , in the brest-plate of judgement , described , as ps . 149. by the law , is a mans life spanned out , and made square every way , that God is made privy to them all . If it be in position : by lyeing down , and riseing up , hee knoweth their miscarriage therein . If it bee in their travail , or their rest : hee keepeth round about all their wayes , and pryeth into every trick of them . If it be in speech or language , hee knoweth every word . Hee besets them round about , they cannot go forth nor back , but his hand is uppon them : which is their conscience of sinne against the law , which he calleth a wonderfull , and a higher knowledge than he can attain unto . from the sight of which trespass and conscience of sinne : becaus ther is no escapeing : neither in heaven ; nor hell , nor beyond sea , nor in the dark : whatsoever hee committeeth by imagination or worship : but hee is every wher with them , and alwaies in sight of them : and hee can no way out-goe him or hide from him , nay that God possessed his reins before he was born : and becaus he was fearfully hidden , and he knew that his works were wonderfull , and that hee saw his bones though they were made in secret : and that hee was set together under the earth : and his clue , and windeing : and his dayes recorded before he was born : now for this hee devides himself from the wicked , deerly , to think of God ▪ as a father ; and to worship and honour him for his creation , and that his cheeff and deerest and most honourable thoughts are mighty and wonderfull many of him ; even above the sand of the sea in number , seeing as long as hee is awake , hee is never out of minde of him . Hee will have no fellowship with any wickednes , with such as rebell and ris● against God , in fals and vain imagination , & idolatrous trespass . Ps. 119. S.

Yf ther bee , that hee would lead him the way and work of eternity , and amendment of life , and forgive him . And this is a resurrection which the Law performeth , by long looking into the hearts and consciences of men , to restore them and deliver them , out of the bonds of sin , and death , and hell , and the divell , and from all slavery , wherinto they are sunk by offences ; yf ther be any spark of grace left in their hearts : and that they be not given over to a reprobate sens : And for this the Prophet is in hope never to see corruption , but by amendment to come to life and joy eternall .

HEe sheweth heer , wherin murther consists ; as in temptation : and that in injury and contention , and that in w●ath , and that in the heart , the tongue and the hands , and all villanous practises , and that with exceeding spight and malice , and choler : so that their hearts invent mischeeff , and they inhabit warrs , and dwell allwayes in contention : with sharp and stinging tongues , and poysoned lips like serpents .

Now that hee seeeth that all is injury and injustice , and the root of all , malignity of the heart , and fierceness of wrath against him : hee maketh this suite to God , that hee would not fullfill the lusts of the wicked man , nor content him in his purposes , to make him proud . And as he had been alwayes his helmet , and the invironing salvation of his head : so hee prayeth that the mischeeff of their lips , and bitter curses may light uppon themselves , and that God would forbid them , and deliver him from their hands , that hee bee not tempted by them . And as they seek to slay by anger and wrath : So that the judgement of a counsell may condemn them , and men may cast coles of wrath upon them , and cast them into the fire , and hot burning embers , even into hell fire ; that they never rise again , that an ill and an injurious tongue may not be established in the earth , but hunt himself to destruction ; becaus hee is sure , that God will right the afflicted and needy in their sentence and judgement .

Now seeing , in this Psalme , that their bones , are not onely brokeen with temptation , but lye at the graves side , as chips and clifts by the saw-pits-side , of the hewer and squareer : and hee is in prayer while they are in their mischeeff : and that hee calleth upon God and his eyes are ever bent unto him : and hee trusteth in him : hee now prayeth , that hee would with speed , hearken unto him , and take his prayer for an evening sacrifice , Eph. 4. And seeing the tong is that unrulely evill of provocation , and that which setteth all the world on fire , as in the last Psalme , and is so forward and so full of poyson : that God would lock up his lips , and guard his mouth , that nothing of temptation or ill matter pass by them , from his hart , in the way of wickednes or slander ; & that their deinty messes intice him not , nor bewitch him to transgress ; but that the just man should instruct him in love , though it bee with stripes , rather to bring the pretious oyle of the Kingdom of heaven upon his head , and crown him with celestiall understanding , of joy above his fellows , as Psal. 45. That their defenders and deliverers may not have a word to say , but bee strooken as silent and dumb as a stone , to hea●ken to the sweetnes of his wordes , which is , for the Iustice , and equity of the matter , like sine pom-granats and aples of gold , that the righteousnes of the P●ists lips might ring : that though his bones lye so nigh the pitt : yet becaus his trust is onely in God , and his eyes are allwayes upon him : that hee would not strip him out of all , and overthrow him , and deprive him by it , but that hee would keep him out of all the snares of the workers of greeff and molestation , and temptation , which they lay for him ; which are every howre , as an open pitt ready to swallow him : and that the wicked , may justly fall into the meashes of their own nets , and into the pitt of their own makeing . While hee escapeth , and hath his issue out of temptation , and is delivered . Construction . Quoph , to compass : or stand or sett about : as a watch and ward to his mouth . 2. Cor. 11. or deinty meates . Mem , waters : for the waters of Idolatry opposed to the pleasant and sweet waters of the Law of God , Ps. 16.36 . &c. taken heer for adultry .

And should deserv to bee stoneed , Ezech. 16.22 . Lev. 18. Is. 37. Deut. 7.19 . hee prayeth to bee righted : though hee feel it , and smart for it . And this from Aleph , to instruct . That his wits bee not confounded by her , nor his strength ill bestowed , beeing so nighe perishing . Hee prayeth , their judges or Gods may bee smitten , &c. so hee intendeth the destruction of all their trust , by the pureitey of his prayers , and Gods acceptance of him . Hee sacrifyeeth by prayer , as Psal. 50. all is for Instruction , against Instruction . Mark the number of repetitions . Deuteronomy . Hee sheweth another way of declineing , and missing of Eternall life , as Math. 19. by spirituall adultery . And as hee handleth yet the word and name of God : so heer hee termeth their Gods and Idols , judges , as Psal. 82. and for the certainty heerof , is Jehovah , made Iehovih , and vowelled like Elohim , which is judgement , that property of God. His calling and prayer serveth for confession and recitation , as Psal. 50.91 . PSALM CXLII . THer is no such theeft as to take men from the service and Altar of God , Psal. 26. Now to bee applyed properly to this Psalme : seeing all persecution is theeft and robbery : and becaus David was now chaseed by Saul into the Cave , Psal. 143. hee findes a way of excerciseing his Kingdom of patience , as yf hee should say : blessed are they when men revile them , and persecute them ; to steal away their good name , or rob them of their liberty or substance : speaking all manner of evill against them , for Gods sake falsly , Math. 5. for then great is their reward : and not to resist evil . And this is that which David waiteth for , for his singular patience and suffering , not seeking any revenge , or restitution , or amends : and hee will not seek to mend his portion in this life , but that God and his relye , and his Kingdom shall bee all circumscription therof , to wall him in , and confine him , and content him . And thus hee sticketh fast to the mercy of God , because all kingdom is his , and serveth for a reproof for Saul , and a comfort for himself . Therfor beeing now in a disperate case and in great distress : that his spirit fainted , and that hee was intrapped in all his courses : and snares layed for him , which way soever hee went : and that ther is no refuge at his right hand to be found : or any man at all to distinguish or entertaine him : or any bosom to receive him : or to disscern or help him : or that careeth for him , to save his life : hee now cryeth unto God , and beseecheth him , makeing him his portion , and setting him att his right hand , as Psal. 16. that considering his great poverty of distress , hee would hearken to him & deliver him from his persecutors , seeing they were too strong for him : & that hee would inlarge him , and make it a wonderfull and bountifull deliverance , that beeing shod with the Gospell , hee may worship his name , with the just ones , for so great a reward upon him .

That hee may have matter to worship his name , for his bounty , which serveth for a memoriall of his mercy , and way of life in his word , which is in crossing of theeft . PSALM . CXLIII . HEe prayeth , not to be called to account or strictly examined , lest hee bee condemned , of the breach of this commandement . For the keeping of which : hee propoundeth to himself , to depart from evill , as Psal. 37. and that as far as hee can goe , which hee makeeth the resisting of the Divill , that hee may fly from him . And sheweth that in all his perplexity and adversity , beeing chased by his Enimy into the ground , as Ps. 142. and to obscure dwelling , like as yf hee were dead : & feeling faintnes of hart , and all his courage and spirit spent : and his hart by guiltynes wasteed and shivered within him : that hee recedes now , as far from fals testimony against his neighbour , as hee can devise : which is , to the rememebrance of the ancient kindenes , and wonderfull works of Gods handes , as Psal. 118. and to a meditation , witnes and true testimony of them , and to tell of them : to study the Scriptures for his comfort and to keep them in minde , and bear record of them ; which is the opposition , which hee propoundeth , and this with a great longing . Therfor , that now , when his spirit is so nigh spent , and himself almoste at the grave with greeff : and that hee truststeth in God , and maketh all his Kingdom the righteousnes therof : hee now requesteth that hee would hear him , and answer him therwith , and whisper him in the ear by his word , and teach him the way of deliverance from his Enimyes , and to doo his will. And because hee is his servant : that by his good spirit , God wil still lead him in plain ground , and by this meanes bring him out of all distress and destroy his Enimyes , and for his names sake revive him : and that hee would graunt him this kindenes with speed , & not to hide his face , and the understanding of his law from him , and confound him . This power is such as Christ gave to his Disciples over unclean spirits , to cast them out , and to heal all disseases , that is , to purge and rid men of all ill conversation of life , by their doctrine , speaking by the spirit of the father , the word , and addressing them to the keeping of the commandements ; which is the power of the Kingdom and government here prayed for .

PSALM . CXLIV . BEcaus his servants life and his hous is so greedily coveted : hee prayeth God to take it to hart , and with a furious judgement , to descend to deliver him from thes uncircumcised tonges and handes , of the seperate ones , and aliens from his glory or welth , called great waters . That according to Psal. 92. hee may set the ten stringed violl to work with a new song ; a song of judgement and grace , as Psal. 101. by saveing of Kings , by his servant , from the hurtfull sword , according to his precept : thou shall not covet his servant , &c. that seeing the commandements bee out , hee may beginn , with the Petaroth of judgements , laws and statutes of condemnation and justification : the Vrim and Thummim , or the two hills , and brefts of the Priests . That so great a glory of Israel and the Church should not be extinguished . That all estates might have their full utility , plenty and ripenes : that their sonns and daughters may bee safe , without any ravenous or untimely covet or stealth , to grow up wel educateed , and neatly , and gloriously facioned and edifyed in their youth , in the fear of God. And this for his man-servant , and his maid servant , bec●us Gods servants are his Children . That their cup-bord may never bee empty , and that their sheep may bee infinit many , increased in their streets , & the ox and the ass , with their dayly burdens of wealth and store : without any freebooting or robbery or covetous filching , or wrangling , or violent stealing , or caus of out cry among them . This hee counteth a moste glorious and happy estate of all , with whom it thus fares , and whos God and neighbour the everlasting is : against whom ther is no prevailing ; and when the childe and hous-hold servants of God , doo flowrish , and are well replenished , like Temples of holynes . So as men are commanded to doo good , especially to them of the hous-hold of faith : so heer ▪ the strictest forbidding of Covet is , that the Godly may injoy their quiet and their labours , as Ps. 128. whithout deprivation or disturbance , that God would bow the heavens and decline the Scriptures and touch the mountaines and Kingdomes and nations therwith , that they may smoke again , with the condemnation and firey judgement of them . And that hee would blast them and dispers them , and with terrible arrowes of his lightning destroy the Churches Enimyes . And deliver his servantes from them . Becaus all means of deliverance , and way of salvation is his , to rely on , the shield of faith . That hee takeeth notice of the Church and Ark of Noah under the person of Adam , whos dayes , are 930.

TO sum up the Lords prayer and petition , which holdeth out after the commandements ; in one word : which is the Kingdom of heaven and power and glory therof . Hee sheweth , becaus the greatnes of God far passeth all magnificence and his estimablenes far beyond all examination , Ps. 50. For his pitty and compassion , for his long patience , and great benignity & kindenes : for his goodnes and mercyes to and over all his works : because his Kingdom and power and glory is eternall : for susteining them that are falling and in decay , and setting upright them that are declineing , and giving all things their meat in due time : and liberally and freely , and bountifully satisfyeing all living creatures with his open handes . For his justice in all his wayes , and kindenes upon all his creatures of his Church : for his neernes to them that call upon him faithfully , by performing what soever they request , and hearing them and saveing them : and destroying all the wicked , as Psal. 92. That therfor , seeing this Kingdom is of this kinde of heavenly operation , & not of the world ; which is the seed of the word sowen in the hart of man to govern him ; hee now as in the conclusions of all the rest of the books , exalteth greatly this God and King of his , and blesseth his name , and the calling upon him for ever and ever . Which exaltation , and hallowing of his Name is a new work after the petition is ended , to finish all , which shall last for ever , as Psal. 111 , for makeing him sundry wayes ripe in the word of God , and cherishing him therwith , for setting him in the doctrine that lasteth for ever and ever . That ever generation from the beginning to the end might prais his workes and the power therof .

PSALM CXLVI . IN this psalme hee considereth that hee will make his confidence sure , and then spend all his life in prais and psalmes unto his God , as ps . 92. Therfor takeing away all vanity of worldly confidence ; hee seeketh the heavenly happines therof ; that the God of Sion and the Church , and his righteousnes is to reign for ever , and to bee exalted and praised . Therfor heer , as ps . 118. hee willeth not to trust in unchariritable princes or any human men , which know not the high wisdom of God , nor the depth of the mysterie therof , determined for the glory and safety of the Church , which have no salvation or help in them ; that by and by consume and turn to earth , as soon as the breath is out of them , and in the same day , all their estimation and reputation and thoughts are at an end and perish : hee now sheweth a more than fleshly revelation , to them that love him , that is the godly , of a sound rock to build upon ; that spirituall things must be set to spirituall things , our faith in spirituall charity , becaus God is spirit , and this a healing faith : hee commendeth greatly the beleeff in God and his word , the Creator , maintainer and restorer of all things , and the happines of him that reposeeth all his help and hope in him , setting him forth by his heavenly properties . Tell Iohn what things ye have seen , a preserver of truth , and keeper of faithfullnes for ever , a Releever of the oppressed , and a graunter of his request , and a righter of their caus , a feeder of them that hunger for him , a resolver of all that be tyed in ignorance and doubt or haesitation , a giver of sight and knowledge to the blinde and unlearned , and a streighter and director of them that bee of a wrong and a crooked opinion , or lame and declining in their understanding , and a lover of them that be right , and most charitablely preserveth strangers with hospitality , and mainteineth parents for orphans , and husbands for widdowes , as ps . 68. & a perverter & crosser of all the wayes , & works of wicked men , as ps . 1 , that they may perpetually bee seen to perish , and com to naught : the everlasting God and his most charitable word of righteousnes , the God of Sion that reigneth and helpeth for ever , for all ages , and throghout all generations .

BEcause Gods prais is so desireable a thing , and so comely : and God so good and so pleasant : for building Ierusalem , as a nest for his Saints , and a Synagogue of all the Church . to salve all their dispersion , & cure their broken har●s , & bindeing up their grief ; keeping the number of all his starts & ministers , in the book of life , and makeing a catalogue of them : becaus their lord is of great power , and of infinite understanding , continueing the lowly : makeing the weakest to last longest , and humbling the wicked , and proudest and strongest to the ground : for covering the heavens of understanding with parabolicall clouds , and makeing lerning to rain on the earth , and grass and food for all creatures that call for it : and hath his onely delight and pleasure in them that fear him and wait for his kindenes , and not in mans desires or humane delights , as ps . 37.33 . Because hee hath made their citty , strong gates of salvation , by the doctrine of the Prophets to keep it , as ps . 127 and blessed their children with the comfort of the word of God , within it , as ps . 28.29 . and peace and plenty of fine wheat flower , in all her borders ; sending out his word and servants , that most speedily runn through the whole land ; that when a winter season of frost and snow , and hard clumpers of ice are cast out , to possess the intractable hearts of men , to correct the stubbornnes of man , and to mollifie their hardnes , and to make them more fruitfull , and to add strength unto them for increas and multiplication of them : hee by and by , sendeth his spirit , the south and warm winde of his word , and thaweth them , and they yeeld doctrine , that no other nation should know his judgements : which follow properly after the commandements , as just payments for the breaches of them , and a perfect recompens of all mens works , giveing them waight for waight , and measure for measure . Therfor according to ps . 92. hee willeth to prais God , and chant out his prais . and becaus his wisdom in this psalm is so infinitely set out , as his speciall property : heer hee ascribeth that unto him , and willeth , that they sing psalms to him with thanks , on the harp , ps . 92 , and that Ierusalem and Sion above all , should commend and prais him : for their so great benefit for the service of him , ps . 92. Furthermore , haveing done with the preacher , hee commeth now to the sermon , which is , righteosnes , and this is the content of all the Scriptures and summ of them , the word of God and sword of the spirit , which hee handleth , ps . 141· Therfor , in this psalm hee reckoneeth the books of the bible , as Ovid reckoned the books of Virgill , Am.

So that the whole Scriptures and scope of them , and the iudgements and prescripts and comfort and salvation , beeing onely known unto the Church : all the world could not compare with them , as ps . 47.

To tell this judgement , was the work of all the Prophets untill Iohn , and then , this kingdom was takeen by violence and force , and men pressed unto it . So that now , after all places of invention , hee now commeth to a collection or syllogizeing of the whole work by the judiciall part , for ever unconfuteable . That God that made the world , should judge the same : by sound confirmations , consequences , and proprietyes and rightes and lawes , according to the power of his name Eloah , and Elohim , of Alah to swear , to doo judgement and justice and right : and to perform the oath which hee sware , to bee a perpetuall redemption to his Church , Psal. 110. and a glory to his people Israel , with a reprooveing of all injury and injustice of the reprobate . So the end is com , the end is com ( as the Prophet sayth ) and Satan with all his perversity and adversity , with all his malice and falshood , and subdolity and treachery is judged , and the day of wrath is com , and hee is discovered and overcom , and cast down and condemned for his cotinuall persecution of the Church . For this benefit , they are greatly to prais his name , and sing Psalmes to him in honour of his name , & make invocation therupon , that hath don all for them : for reprooving confuteing and tormenting , all their adversaryes , and cheeff of them , and that the Saintes for this peace should leap up in their beds for joy , and make a glorious exaltation , and triumph , for this great day of victory and salvation , with accents of exaltations and highe prayses of God , and choise songs in their throats : and a sharp sword in their handes lyeing by them , to shew their meanes of deliverance and courage and valour and preparation of the word of God , their defendour , that whispers in the ears of all men and warneth them . Heerto belong the fignified vertues in the apparell of the Priesthood , that they may bee happy whom the Eternall , the God of justice chargeeth not with iniquity , Psal. 32. So that now it is in vain for to strive , as Psal. 2. or the Kings and heades , to think of casting away the cordes , and bandes of their yokes of subjection to the Church : for hee hath appointed his King over Sion , and his horn and his anoynted , and his prais , as Psal. 141.92.86 . God hath still favoured them that fear him , and planted a gardine of pleasure for them , that hee hath begotten : a paradise of safety and salvation for his children , and hath appointed his Angels and Ministers to pitch about them , as . Ps. 34. King of Iacob , Is. 41.43 . Ier. 8. to keep and preserve the way of righteousnes in this life , the tree of their lives in holynes . And with this grace hath God clotheed his saintes while their Enimyes , are judged , as ps . 2.92.79 . and for this ornament and Paradise and comly weed of salvation , the skinn that covereth all nakednes , that hath no cloud of shames upon it , no spot or wrinkle in it , Eph. 5. That his saintes should prais him , in their congregation , with a sonet of all confidence , as ps . 118. Construction . Quoph , to compass , or inviron , as the gratious ones , Israel and the children of Sion , in praising of him . with Ioy in the holy Ghost , another part of the Kingdom , ps : 145. in commendation of Iah , their King and makeer , Is. 53.22.41.43 . Ier. 8. ps . 29.48.24 . by the spirituall and gutturall sound and prononciation of Iehovah , psal . 115.135 . For every Law must have a King. Jehovah , calamity , Jad , a hand & He , the coactive conjugation of Hiphil , working salvation and revenge . Mark the words gratious ones and saintes : maker , work , and fullfill . Mem , waters : people , heathen , nations , Kings , Nobles , &c. The calamity and captivity of them , and cutting them off , and wearying of them according to Quamat , to bee wearyed or dissolved , Iob 16.22 . Jah , is intimated . By exaltations in his Throat , is the aspiration of He , meant , beeing a gutturall letter : so is Iod , signifyed by sword for hand , ps . 17. And thus hee is taken for maker , King and God and Almighty and Revenger . So they have the name of God , or God in their throat and in their hand . Mark all the words of Ioy , rejoyceing and prais according to it , and the repetition upon all , Is. 45. Deuteronomy . By all kindes of rejoyceing for their salvation , the glory of their Kingdom 145.111.112.45 . for his notable acts , and the majesty of his name Jah , in them , in makeing and governing and saveing of them , in beeing kinde to the kinde , &c. as psal . 18. And this prais is also a good confession or rehearsall of his grace , in the other Psalme , his works and frame of the world set him out , & in this , his gratious ones ( his Ministry ) must bless him , ps . 145. with all their might and all the wayes they can . PSALM CL. THe things in this Psalme to bee set out , are the everlasting strength of God , by his judgement and justice , and his holynes , and his great stature and estimation , by his victories and salvation , and his great prevailing and overcomming , by the Law , and that in his sanctuary , and in the highth of his hollynes and all solemnityes . And for creation and conservation , that all things breathing should again and again prais him , and evermore extoll him , & glorifye him world without end , with many an Amen , and many a hallelujah , and , God be praised , for the same . The voice of God in his sanctuary requireeth great strength and glory , as psal . 29. and great confidence in the firmament of the heavens therof , ps . 68. And because his word and all that is spokeen in his Temple is glorious : hee must have a lofty and a bold utterance and a loud pronuntiation even in the skyes for the syncerity therof . Because the scriptures bee the creators of the children of God : so they bee their Elders , their father and authorityes and witnesses , to judge all men quick and dead and by their testimony , to disscide all strife and contention . So hee that speaketh from hence , speaketh soundly , and ther is no replyeing against the authority heerof . This prooff and testimony putteth the Divil to silence , and this of great validity in judgement . Becaus it belongeth to all partes of the sylogisme , to proov or reproov the same . So that the commandements beeing positive , and the Cases divers that rise from thence , and all condemnation is by judgement : so in all cas●es testimony must bring foorth truthe ; and truthe an upright sentence which in this psalme , for an approbation of all men : hee willeth the whole Church to confirm , and to justify all that is spoken , and that in a high majesty in his Church , and that they should prais God in a firmament of faith and confidence , as the faithfull and true witness , Amen . That they should prais him for his victoryes , dignity and excellence and for his great magnificence and worthynes , honour and estimation , as ps . 146. And for testimony : that hee should protest and witness the same , and prais him with all kinde of musique , yee the lowdest : and willeth , that every breath and gasp and aspiration should testifye the judgement and applaude it and sing prais of God. Becaus by this , the way of God and all just men , is manifest and plain , as ps . 1. Ther is no witnes like the father , and a testimony of the Scripture is a good demonstration . So to conclude the strength of the Law , and lawes and judgements therof with judgement , as ps . 99. and all the praises of Israel with prais : hee hath thus finished the book for the Church , that ther is salvation for the people of God , ps . 3. and that by the Law , psal . 4. and Kingdom of righteousnes , ps . 5. with this high glory to God above the heavens , ps . 8. and worship over all the earth . Now is the wrath of God , upon the gentiles com , and the time of the dead , that they should bee judged , ps . 145.149 . and that hee should give reward to his servants the Prophers , and to the sainctes and them that fear his name , to small and great , and should destroy them that destroy the earth , Deut. 28. Apoc. 11. and all the mystery of God and of the Law , and of the Prophets , revealed and finished , Apoc. 10. Construction . Quopb , to compass , is heer meant by praising , and assemblies about him , as the last declareed the person : ps . 48. the Church is the element of his strength , and principall dwelling of the Law and word of God , by the preaching and extolling of it ; ps . 29. compared to the sunn as ps . 19. for visiting all men with all kinde of lustre and grace about them , as Saul ; Act. 9. as the mighty king , according to the power and greatnes of him , being possessor and conquerour of heaven and earth Gen. 14. by the letters Quen , a nest , seat , or possession , Ier. 22. psal . 84. of Quanah , to get or obtein , or conquer . That his name Iah , may spring and grow in the sunn , as psal . 72. according to the letter Nun , or N. to grow , for his publike prais by musick , full of aspiration to express his name Iah , exceeding triumph for his exceeding greatnes . Hu , is a name of God from Iehovah , as well as for his excellence , and onelynes . In respect wherof the term is heer so oft repeated and affixed to praise . to wit , 11 times , the number of the two letters . hee is praised in respect of his onelynes wher , and wherin , and in measure , also wherwith : and those bee the instruments iust 11. Deuteronomy . A hundred and fifty dayes the flood increased : so have the praises of God , who sitteth upon the flood , as ps . 22. Hee is king for ever , and the strength of his Law is infinit , that hee giveth to his people , and feedeth them withall , ps . 28.29 . that they should for ever prais him , and ever comment upon him and confess his wonderfull kindenes to the children of men . Praised bee God. FINIS . Notes, typically marginal, from the original text Notes for div A13844-e190 psalmes . 26. the law and first prophets . 2 Cor : 22.
