The argument of the .lxxxj. psalme. ¶ The prophete exhorteth the ministers of the Churche, and all other, to set foorth Gods prayses with all kinde of musicke, according to his ordinaunce geuen to the Israelites. God declareth his benefites to his people in deliuering them out of the thraldome of Egypt. He declareth also that they should easyly haue subdued their enemies, and haue their groundes and fieldes very fruitfull, if they had not ben disobedient vnto him. ¶2; To the chiefe musition vpon Gittith, note of Asaph. A   


1   Sing we meryly vnto the Lorde our strength: make a chearefull noyse vnto the Lorde of Iacob.


2   Take the note psalterie: bryng hyther the tabret, the merie harpe, with the lute.


3   Blowe vp the trumpet in the newe moone, euen in the time appointed: and vpon our solempne feast day.


4   For this was made a statute for Israel: and a lawe of the God of Iacob.


5   This he ordayned in Ioseph for a testimonie, when he came out of the lande of Egypt: [where] I note hearde a tongue [whiche] I knewe not.


6   I eased his shoulder from the burthen: and his handes ceassed from making pottes. B   


7   Thou calledst vpon me in troubles, and I deliuered thee: I hearde thee out of the note middest of a thunder, I proued thee also at the waters of strife. Selah.


8   [Then I sayd] heare O my people: and I wyll geue thee a charge O Israel in protesting vnto thee. Morning prayer.


9   If thou wylt hearken vnto me, there shall be no straunge God in thee: neither shalt thou geue worship to any other Lorde beside me.


10   I am God thy Lorde which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wyde, and I wyll fill it.


11   But my people woulde not heare my voyce: and Israel would not [obey] me.


12   So I gaue them vp vnto the wicked cogitations of their owne heartes: and I did let them folowe their owne imaginations. C   


13   O that my people woulde haue hearkened vnto me: O that Israel had walked in my wayes.


14   I should soone haue tamed their enemies: and turned myne hande against their aduersaries.


15   The haters of God shoulde haue ben founde note liers: and note their time should haue endured for euer.


16    noteHe woulde haue fed them also with the finest wheate flowre: and I would haue satisfied thee with honie out of the stonie rocke.
