LESSON V. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handy work. One day telleth another, and one night doth certify another. There are neither speech nor language, but their voices are heard among them. Their sound is gone out into all lands: and their words into the ends of the world. LESSON VI. The fear of the Lord is clean, and endureth for ever; the judgments of the Lord'are always righteous and true. More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honey-comb. Moreover by them is thy servant taught: and in keeping of them there is great reward.

THE LESSON I HE Lord looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that would understand and seek after God. But they are all gone out of the way, they are all become vile: there is none that doth good, no not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have deceived: the poison of asps is under their lips. LESSON II. By the blessing of the upright, the city is exalted; but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked. Where no counsel is, the people fall; but in the multitude of counsellors, there is safety. He that is surety for a stranger, shall smart for it, but he that declineth to be a surety, is sure. The merciful man doth good to his own soul; but he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh. LESSON III. O Lord, thou hast searched me out, and know me; thou knowest my down-sitting, and mine up-rising; thou didst understand my thoughts long before. Thou art about my path, and about my bed; and spiest out all my ways. Try me, O God, and seek the ground of my heart; prove me, and examine my thoughts. Look well if there be any way of wickedness in me; and lead me in the way of eternal life. LESSON IV. It is not good to accept the person of the wicked; to overthrow the righteous in judgment. The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge. A man that hath friends, must shew himself friendly; and their is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. Many will intreat the favour of the prince; and every man is a friend to him that giveth gifts. LESSON V. Deliver me, O Lord, from the evil man, and preserve me from the wicked man. Who imagine mischief in their hearts: and stir up strife all the day long. They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent: adders, poison is under their lips. Keep me, O Lord, from the hands of the ungod ly preserve me from the wicked men, who are purposed to overthrow my goings. LESSON VI. The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way; but the folly of fools is deceit. The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going. A wise man feareth and departeth from evil, but the fool rageth and is confident. The evil bow before the good: and the wicked at the gates of the righteous. A Note. The accent is on the first syllable.
