¶ The .x. Psalme.
VT QVID DOMINE.
A Why stondest þu; so farre of (O Lord)
∧ hydest thy face in that neadefull
tyme of trouble? The vngodly
for his owne lust, doth persecute þe;
poore: let them be taken in the craftye wilynesse
that they haue ymagined. For the vngodly
hath made boast of hys awne hertes
desyre, ∧ speaketh good of þe; couetous, wh&obar;
God abhorreth. The vngodly is so proude
that he careth not for God, nether is God in
all his thoughtes. &club; His wayes are allway
greuous,
B thy iudgementes are farre aboue
out of his syght, ∧ therfore defyeth he all his
enemyes. For he hath sayed in his hert:
Tush I shall neuer be cast downe, ther shall
no harme happen vnto me. noteHis mouth is
full of cursynge, and disceate and fraude vnder
his t&obar;ge is vngodlynesse ∧ vanite. noteHe
sytteth lurkinge in þe; theuish corners of þe; stretes,
∧ priuely in his lurkynge dennes doth he
murthur þe; innoc&ebar;t: his eyes are set agaynst þe;
poore. For he lyeth waytinge secretly (eu&ebar;
as a lyon, lurketh he in his denne þt; he maye
rauish the poore. He doth rauish the poore,
wh&ebar; he getteth him &ibar; to his nett. &rhand; He falleth
downe ∧ h&ubar;bleth him selfe, that the congregacy&obar;
of the poore maye fall in to þe; h&abar;de
of his captaynes. He hath sayed in his herte:
Tush, God hath forgott&ebar;, he hydeth awaye
his face, and he wyll neuer se it. Aryse (O
Lorde God) and lyfte vp thyne h&abar;de, forget
not the poore. Wherfore shulde the wycked
blaspheme God, whyle he doth saye in
-- --
his herte: tush, thou God carest not for it?
D Surely thou hast sene it. For thou beholdest
vngodlynesse and wronge. &rhand; That
thou mayest take the matter in to thy h&abar;de:
the poore committeth hym selfe vnto the, for
thou art the helper of the frendlesse. Breake
thou the power of the vngodly and malycyous,
&rhand; take awaye hys vngodlynesse,
and thou shalt fynde none. The Lorde is
kynge for euer, and euer, and the Hethen are
peryshed out of the lande. Lorde, thou
hast hearde the desyre of the poore: thou preparest
theyr hert and thyne eare herkeneth
therto. To helpe the fatherlesse and poore
vnto theyr right: that the man of the erthe be
no more exalted agaynst them.
