Arise, O Lord God, and lift up thine hand; forget not the poor. Wherefore should the wicked blaspheme God: while he doth say in his heart, tush, thou God carest not for it! LESSON II. I will rejoice in thee; yea, my songs will I make of thy name, O thou most highest. I will shew all thy praises within the ports of the daughter of Sion: I will rejoice in thy saving health. The Lord is known to do judgment; the wicked is trapped in the work of his own hands. LESSON III. A man's heart doth devise his way; but the Lord doth direct his steps. . A divine sentence is in the lips of the king: his mouth doth not transgress in judgment. A just weight and balance are the Lord's: all the weights of the bag are his works. The highway of the upright is to depart from evil: he that keepeth his way doth preserve his soul. LESSON IV. The wicked man shutteth his eyes to devise froward things moving his lips, he bringeth evil to pass. The hoary head is a crown of glory, if it be found in the way of goodness. He that is slow to anger, is better than the mighty and he that ruleth his spirit, than he that taketh a city. LESSON V. O my soul, thou hast said unto the Lord, thou art my God, my goods are nothing unto thee. All my delight is upon the saints that are in the earth: and upon such as excel in virtue. I will thank the Lord for giving me warning My reins also chasten me in the night season. I have set God always before me: for he is on my right hand, therefore I shall not fall. LESSON VI. The Lord is my shepherd, therefore can I lack nothing. He shall feed me in a green pasture; and lead me forth beside the waters of comfort. Thou shalt prepare a table before me, against them that trouble me, thou didst anoint my head with oil, and my cup shall be full. But thy loving kindness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. WORDS OF THREE SYLLABLES. TABLE I. Note.
