3. I have made a' covenant with my chosen I have' sworn unto' David my servant;

4. Thy seed will I' stablish for ever: and set up thy throne from one gene'ration' to another.

30. His seed also will I make to en'dure for ever and his' throne as the' days of heaven.

31. But if his children for sake my law and' walk not' in my judgements;

32. If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments: I will visit their offences with the rod, and their sin with scourges.

33. Nevertheless, my loving-kindness will I not utterly take from him : nor' suffer my' truth to fail.

34. My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone' out of my lips I have sworn once by my holiness, that I will not fail David.

35. His seed shall en'dure for ever: and his seat is' like as the' sun before

40. All they that go' by spoil him : and he is become a re'proach' to his neighbours.

41. Thou hast set up the right' hand of his enemies and made all his' adversaries' to rejoice.

42. Thou hast taken away the' edge of his sword and givest him not victory' in the battle.

43. Thou hast put out his glory : and cast his' throne down' to the ground.

44. The days of his' youth hast thou shortened and' covered him' with dishonour.

45. Lord, how long wilt thou' hide thyself, for ever and shall thy' wrath' burn like fire?

46. O remember how' short my time is wherefore hast thou' made all' men for nought?

PSALM 90. Domine, refugium. ORD, thou hast been our refuge : from one generation' to another. 2. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever the earth and the' world were made: thou art God from everlasting, and' world' without end.

3. Thou turnest' man to destruction: again thou sayest, Come a'gain, ye' children of men.

4. For a thousand years in thy sight are' but as yesterday: seeing that is' past as a watch in the night.

5. As soon as thou scatterest them

Ꮎ

abide under the' shadow of the Almighty.

2. I will say unto the Lord, Thou art my hope, and my' strong hold: my God, in' him' will I trust.

3. For he shall deliver thee from the snare of the hunter : and' from the noisome pestilence.

4. He shall defend thee under his wings, and thou shalt be safe' under his feathers: his faithfulness and truth shall be thy' shield and buckler.

5. Thou shalt not be afraid for any' terror by night: nor for the' arrow that' flieth by day;

6. For the pestilence that walketh in darkness: nor for the sickness that de'stroyeth' in the noon-day.

7. A thousand shall fall beside thee, and ten thousand at thy right hand : but it shall not come' nigh thee.

8. Yea, with thine eyes' shalt thou behold and see the re'ward of' the ungodly.

9. For thou,' Lord, art my hope : thou hast set thine house of de'fence' very high.

10. There shall no evil' happen unto thee neither shall any plague come' nigh thy dwelling.

11. For he shall give his angels
