EARKEN unto this, O man; stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God. Dost thou know when God disposed them, and caused the light of his clouds to shine? Dost thou know the balancing of the clouds, the wondrous works of him which is perfect in knowledge?

Where wast thou when God laid the foundations of the earth ?-declare if thou hast understanding. Who hath laid the measures thereof; dost thou know?-or who hath stretched out the line upon it?

Whereupon are

the foundations thereof fastened; or who laid the corner stone thereof? When the morning stars sang together, all the sons of God shouted for joy.

Solo Bass.

HOSO dwelleth under the defence of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

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

trust.

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

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.

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

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