The Psalter for Day 15, Morning


Psalm 75

The Seventy-Fifth Psalm

Confitebimur tibi.


UNTO thee, O God, do we give thanks; * yea, unto thee do we give thanks.
 
Thy Name also is so nigh; * and that do thy wondrous works declare.
 
In the appointed time, saith God, * I shall judge according unto right.
 
The earth is weak, and all the inhabiters thereof: * I bear up the pillars of it.
 
I said unto the fools, Deal not so madly; * and to the ungodly, Set not up your horn.
 
Set not up your horn on high, * and speak not with a stiff neck.
 
For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, * nor yet from the south.
 
And why? God is the Judge; * he putteth down one, and setteth up another.
 
For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, and the wine is red; * it is full mixt, and he poureth out of the same.
 
As for the dregs thereof, * all the ungodly of the earth shall drink them, and suck them out.
 
But I will talk of the God of Jacob, * and praise him for ever.
 
All the horns of the ungodly also will I break, * and the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.

Psalm 76

The Seventy-Sixth Psalm

Notus in Judaea.


IN Judah is God known; * his Name is great in Israel.
 
At Salem is his tabernacle, * and his dwelling in Sion.
 
There brake he the arrows of the bow, * the shield, the sword, and the battle.
 
Thou art glorious in might, * when thou comest from the hills of the robbers.
 
The proud are robbed, they have slept their sleep; * and all the men whose hands were mighty have found nothing.
 
At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, * both the chariot and horse are fallen.
 
Thou, even thou art to be feared; * and who may stand in thy sight when thou art angry?
 
Thou didst cause thy judgment to be heard from heaven; * the earth trembled, and was still,
 
When God arose to judgment, * and to help all the meek upon earth.
 
The fierceness of man shall turn to thy praise; * and the fierceness of them shalt thou refrain.
 
Promise unto the LORD your God, and keep it, all ye that are round about him; * bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.
 
He shall refrain the spirit of princes, * and is wonderful among the kings of the earth.

Psalm 77

The Seventy-Seventh Psalm

Voce mea ad Dominum.


I WILL cry unto God with my voice; * even unto God will I cry with my voice, and he shall hearken unto me.
 
In the time of my trouble I sought the Lord: * I stretched forth my hands unto him, and ceased not in the night season; my soul refused comfort.
 
When I am in heaviness, I will think upon God; * when my heart is vexed, I will complain.
 
Thou holdest mine eyes waking: * I am so feeble that I cannot speak.
 
I have considered the days of old, * and the years that are past.
 
I call to remembrance my song, * and in the night I commune with mine own heart, and search out my spirit.
 
Will the Lord absent himself for ever? * and will he be no more intreated?
 
Is his mercy clean gone for ever? * and is his promise come utterly to an end for evermore?
 
Hath God forgotten to be gracious? * and will he shut up his loving-kindness in displeasure?
 
And I said, It is mine own infirmity; * but I will remember the years of the right hand of the Most Highest.
 

 
vs 11 I will remember the works of the LORD, * and call to mind thy wonders of old time.
 
I will think also of all thy works, * and my talking shall be of thy doings.
 
Thy way, O God, is holy: * who is so great a God as our God?
 
Thou art the God that doest wonders, * and hast declared thy power among the peoples.
 
Thou hast mightily delivered thy people, * even the sons of Jacob and Joseph.
 
The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee, and were afraid; * the depths also were troubled.
 
The clouds poured out water, the air thundered, * and thine arrows went abroad.
 
The voice of thy thunder was heard round about: * the lightnings shone upon the ground; the earth was moved, and shook withal.
 
Thy way is in the sea, and thy paths in the great waters, * and thy footsteps are not known.
 
Thou leddest thy people like sheep, * by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
