39 (89:38) Thou hast broken the couenaunt of thy seruaunt: thou hast disgraced his crowne, castyng it on the grounde. 40 (89:39) Thou hast ouerthrowe all his walles: and broken downe his strong holdes. 41 (89:40) All they that go by the way spoyle hym: he is become a rebuke vnto his neyghbours. 42 (89:41) Thou hast exalted the ryght hande of his enemies: and made all his aduersaries to reioyce. 43 (89:42) Thou hast turned the harde edge of his sworde: and thou hast not lifted him vp in the battayle. 44 (89:43) Thou hast brought his noble estate to an ende: and hast cast his throne downe to the grounde. 45 (89:44) Thou hast shortened the dayes of his youth: and thou hast couered him with shame. Selah. 46 (89:45) O God howe long wylt thou hyde thy selfe? for euer? shall thy wrath burne lyke fire? 47 (89:46) Remember what I am, howe short my tyme is of lyfe: wherfore hast thou created in vayne all the sonnes of men? 48 (89:47) What man is he that lyueth and shall not see death? can he delyuer his owne soule from the hande of hell? Selah. 49 (89:48) Lorde where are become thy former olde louyng kyndnesses: which thou dydst sweare vnto Dauid by thy fayth that thou wouldest perfourme. 50 (89:49) Remember O Lorde the dishonour * of thy seruauntes: I beare in my bosome the dishonour of all people that be mightie. 51 (89:50) Who beyng thine enemies O God do dishonour: who do dishonour the footsteppes of thine annoynted. 52 (89:51) Blessed be God for euermore: so be it, and so be it.
