Lorde, thou barest a loue vnto thy
londe, thou didest bringe agayne the
captiuyte of Iacob. Thou diddest
forgeue the offence of thy people, and
couerdest all their synnes. Sela. note
Thou tokest awaye all thy displeasure, ∧
turnedest thy self from thy wrothful indignacion.
Turne vs then (o God o&highr; Sauioure)
∧ let thine anger ceasse from vs. Wilt thou
be displeased at vs for euer? wilt thou stretch
out thy wrath from one generacion to another?
Wilt thou not turne agayne, ∧ quycken
vs, that thy people maye reioyse in the?
B I wil herken what the LORDE God wil
saie, for he shal speake peace vnto his people
and to his sayntes, that they turne not them
selues vnto foolishnes. For his saluacion
is nye them that feare him, so that glory shal
dwell in oure londe. Mercy and trueth are
met together, rightuousnesse and peace kysse
ech other. Trueth shal ryse out of þe; earth,
and rightuousnesse shall loke downe from heauen.
And why? the LORDE shal shewe louinge
kyndnesse, and oure londe shal geue hir
encrease. Rightuousnesse shal go before
him, and prepare the waye for his commynge.
