2 In the tyme of my trouble I sought the Lorde: my hande all the nyght catched & ceassed not, my soule refused comfort. 3 I called to remembraunce God, and I was disquieted: I conferred with my selfe, and my spirite was wrapped in pensiuenesse. Selah. 4 Thou dydst kepe the watche of mine eies: I was amased & coulde not speake. 5 I dyd thynke vpon the dayes past: and on the yeres of the olde worlde. 6 I called to remembraunce my psalme, song on the musicall instrument in the nyght tyme: I communed with myne owne heart, & searched out my spirites. 7 What, wyll the Lorde forsake me for euer? wyll he be no more intreated to be fauourable? 8 Is his mercie cleane gone for euer? and is his promise made from one generation to another, come vtterly to an ende. 9 Hath God forgotten to be gratious? and will he shut vp his louing kindnesse in displeasure? Selah. 10 And I sayde, this is my death: but the ryght hande of the most hyghest may graunt me yeres. 11 I dyd call to remebraunce the workes of God almightie: for thy wonders done a great whyle a goe came into my mynde. 12 I also gaue my selfe to muse of all thy workes: and I talked of all thy actes. 13 Thy way O Lorde is in holynesse: who is so great a God as the Lorde? 14 Thou art the God that doth wonders: thou hast made thy power knowen among the people. 15 Thou hast redeemed thy people with a mightie arme: the sonnes of Iacob and Ioseph. Selah. 16 The waters sawe thee O God, the waters sawe thee, they feared: yea the depthes of them moued out of their place. 17 Thicke cloudes powred downe rayne, thinne cloudes gaue a noyse: and thine arrowes went abrode into al corners. 18 The sounde of thy thunder was rounde about the sky : the lightnynges shone through the worlde, the earth quaked and trembled. 19 Thy way is in the sea, and thy pathes in the great waters: and thy footesteppes are not knowen. 20 Thou dydst leade thy people lyke sheepe: by the hande of Moyses and Aaron.
