Coverdale Bible of 1535 Par ▾ 

The LORD Is on My Side

1O Geue thankes vnto the LORDE, for he is gracious, and his mercy endureth for euer.

2Let Israel now confesse, yt his mercy endureth for euer.

3Let the house of Aaron now confesse, that his mercy endureth for euer.

4Yee let the now that feare the LORDE, confesse, that his mercy endureth for euer.

5I called vpon the LORDE in trouble, and the LORDE herde me at large.

6The LORDE is my helper, I wil not feare what man doeth vnto me.

7The LORDE is my helper, & I shal se my desyre vpon myne enemies.

8It is better to trust in the LORDE, then to put eny confidence in man.

9It is better to trust in the LORDE, then to put eny confidece in prynces.

10All Heithen compased me rounde aboute, but in the name of the LORDE wil I destroye the.

11They kepte me in on euery syde, but in the name of the LORDE, I wil destroye them.

12They came aboute me like bees, & were as hote as the fyre in the thornes, but in the name of the LORDE I wil destroye them.

13They thrust at me, that I might fall, but the LORDE was my helpe.

14The LORDE is my stregth, & my songe, & is become my saluacion.

15The voyce of ioye & myrth is in the dwellynges of ye rightuous, for ye right hande of the LORDE hath gotte the victory.

16The right hande of the LORDE hath the preemynence, the right hade of the LORDE hath gotte the victory.

17I wil not dye, but lyue, and declare the workes of the LORDE.

18The LORDE hath chastened & correcte me, but he hath not geuen me ouer vnto death.

19Open me the gates of rightuousnes, yt I maye go in there thorow, & geue thakes vnto the LORDE.

20This is the dore of the LORDE, the rightuous shall entre in thorow it.

21I thanke the, yt thou hast herde me, & art become my saluacio.

22The same stone which the buylders refused, is become the heade stone in the corner.

23This was the LORDES doinge, & it is maruelous in or eyes.

24This is the daye which the LORDE hath made, let vs reioyse and be glad in it.

25Helpe now o LORDE, o LORDE sende vs now prosperite.

26Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORDE, we wish you good lucke, ye that be of the house of the LORDE.

27God is the LORDE, & hath shewed vs light: O garnish the solempne feast with grene braunches, eue vnto the hornes of ye aulter.

28Thou art my God, & I wil thanke the: thou art my God, and I wil prayse the.

29O geue thankes vnto the LORDE, for he is gracious, & his mercy endureth for euer.
