The argument of the .cxxxij. psalme.
¶ The prophete desireth God to remember hym and his great affection towarde religion,
and to buylde a temple for his arke. He sayeth it was declared vnto hym that Sion
shoulde be the house of God. Dauids petition when he brought the arke thyther. God
promiseth how that Dauids seede shal raigne after him for euer if they kepe his lawes,
and that he wyll blesse the citie of Sion, and the inhabitauntes thereof, with all kynde
of felicitie.
¶2; A song of high degrees.
A
1 noteO God be mindfull
of Dauid: with
all his affliction.
2 Who swore
vnto God: who
made a vowe vnto
the most mightie
[Lorde] of Iacob.
3 [Saying] I wyll
not enter into the tabernacle of my
house: nor get vp into my bed.
4 I wyll not suffer myne eyes to slepe:
nor myne eye liddes to slumber.
5 Untill I finde out a place for the temple
of God: an habitation for the most
mightie Lorde of Iacob.
6 Beholde, we note hearde it to be at Ephratha:
we founde it in the fieldes of
the forest.
7 We wyll go into his tabernacle: and
fall downe on our knees before his
footestoole.
B
8 Aryse O God [for to come] into thy resting
place: thou and the arke of thy
strength.
9 Let thy priestes be clothed with righteousnes:
and let thy saintes make a
ioyfull noyse.
10 For thy seruaunt Dauids sake: turne
not away [from] the face of thyne annoynted.
11 God hath sworne for a trueth vnto
Dauid, and he wyll not go from it: I
wyll place vpon thy throne some of the
fruite of thy body.
12 If thy chyldren wyll kepe my couenaunt
and my testimonies whiche I
wyll teache them: their chyldren also
shall sit vpon thy throne for euermore.
13 For God hath chosen [to be in] Sion:
he had a desire that it might be an habitation
for hym.
C
14 This [is sayeth he] my rest for euer:
heare I wyll dwell, for I haue a desire
to it.
15 I wyll aboundauntly powre my blessinges
vpon her victuals: and I wyll
satisfie her poore with bread.
16 I wyll clothe her priestes with note saluation:
and her saintes shall make an
exceeding ioyfull noyse.
-- --
Moneth the .xxviii. day.
17 I will make there the horne of Dauid
to bud vp: I wyll ordayne a light for
mine annoynted.
Morning prayer.
18 I wyll clothe his enemies with
shame: but his crowne shall florishe vppon
hym selfe.
