We have thought of. Thy lóving- | kindness, O God: ín the midst of Thy | temple.

According to Thy name O God, so is Thy praise únto the ends of the earth: Thý right hand is | full of righteousness.

Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of | Judah be glad : bé- | cause of Thy | judgments. Walk about Zion, and gó | round a- | bout her : ánd tell the towers there- | of.

Mark ye well her búlwarks, con- | sider her | palaces that ye may tell ít to the gene- | ration | following.

:

For this God is our Gód for | ever and | ever: He will be our guide | even | unto | death.

Evening Prayer.

PSALM 50.

THE Lord, even the most míghty | God, hath | spoken and called the world from the rising up of the sun únto the | going down there- | of.

:

Out of Síon hath | God ap- | peared: ín | per- | fect | beauty.

Our God shall cóme, and shall not keep | silence: there shall go before Him a consuming fire, and a mighty tempest shall be | stirred up | round a- | bout Him.

He shall call the heaven | from a- | bove: and the éarth, that | He may | judge His | people.

Gather My saints together | unto | Me: those that have made a cóve- | nant with | Me by sacrifice. And the heaven shall de- | clare His | righteousness: fór | God is | Judge Him- | self.

Hear, O My people, and I will speak: I Myself

will testify against thee, O Israel, for I am Gód | even | thy God.

I will not reprove thee because of thy sacrifices, nor for thy | burnt- | offerings: whích are | al- | way be-fore Me.

I will take no búllock | out of thine | house: nór | he-goat out of thy folds.

For all the beasts of the | forest are | Mine: and so are the cattle up- | on a thousand | hills.

I know all the fówls | upon the mountains: and the wild beasts of the field are | in My | sight.

For the whole world is | Mine: ánd | all that is there-in.

:

Offer unto Gód | thanks- | giving and pay thy vóws unto the | Most | High.

And call upon Mé in the | time of trouble: so will I hear thee, and | thou shalt | praise | Me.

And whoso offereth Me thanks and práise, he | honoureth | Me: and to him that ordereth his conversation ríght will I shew the salvation of | God.

PSALM 51.

HAVE mercy upon me, O God, according to Thy | loving-kindness: according unto the multitude of Thy tender mércies | blot out | my trans- | gres

sions.

Wash me throughly from | mine in- | iquity: ánd | cleanse me from my sin.

For I acknowledge | my trans- |gressions: ánd my sin is ever be- | fore me.

Against Thee, Thee ónly | have I sinned and dóne this evil | in Thy | sight.

That Thou mayest be justified when Thou | speakest and be | clear | when Thou | judgest.

Behold Thou requirest trúth in the | inward | parts: and in the hidden part Thou shalt máke | me to | know wisdom.

Create in me a cléan | heart, O | God: ánd re- | new a right spirit with- | in me.

Cast me not awáy | from Thy | presence: take nót Thy holy Spirit | from me.

Restore unto me the joy of | Thy sal- | vation: and uphold mé | with Thy | free | Spirit.

Deliver me from bloodguiltiness O God, Thou Gód of my sal- vation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of Thy | righteous- | ness.

O Lord, open | Thou my | lips: and my mouth | shall shew | forth Thy | praise.

For Thou desirest not sacrificé | else would I give it: Thou delíghtest | not in | burnt offering.

The sacrifices of Gód are a broken | spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O Gód | Thou wilt | not de- spise.

THE NINTH DAY.

Morning Prayer.

PSALMS 55, 56.

GIVE éar to my | prayer, O God: and hide not

Thyself from my suppli

Atténd unto me, and

cation,

hear me: I mourn in

mý com- | plaint, and | make a | noise;

Fearfulness and trémbling are | come up- on me:

ánd horror hath | over-whelmed me.

And I said, Oh that I had wíngs | like a | dove : for then would I flý a- | way, and ❘ be at | rest.

Lo, then would I | wander far | off: ánd re- | main | in the wilderness.

Evening, and morning, and at noon will I práy, and | cry a- | loud; ánd | He shall | hear my | voice.

Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and Hé | shall sus- |tain thee: He shall never súffer the | righteous | to be moved.

In Gód have I put my trust: I will not be afráid what man can | do unto me.

Thy vows are up- | on me, O | God: I will rénder | praises unto | Thee.

For Thou hast delivered my soul from | death: wilt not Thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before Gód in the light | of the | living?

PSALM 57.

BE merciful unto me, O God, be mérciful | unto | me: fór my soul | trusteth in | Thee.

Yea, in the shadow | of Thy | wings: I' | will | make my refuge.

I will call unto | God most | high: unto Gód that| doeth | good to | me.

He shall send from | heaven and | save me: God shall send forth His | mercy | and His | truth.

Be Thou exalted, O God, a- bove the heavens : let Thy glóry be above all the | earth.

My heart is fixed, O Gód, my | heart is | fixed: I' will sing and give praise.

For the greatness of Thy mercy réacheth | unto the heavens: ánd Thy | truth | unto the clouds.

Be Thou exalted, O Gód, a- | bove the heavens : let Thy glóry | be above | all the earth.

PSALM 63.

O GÓD Thou art | my | God: éarly | will I | seek | Thee.

My soul thirsteth for Thee; my flésh | longeth for | Thee to see Thy power and Thy glóry, as I have | seen Thee in the sanctuary.

Because Thy loving-kíndness is | better than | life: mý lips shall | praise | Thee.

Thus will I bless Thée | while I live: my mouth shall praise | Thee with | joyful | lips ;

When I remember Thée up- | on my bed: and meditate on Thée | in the | night | watches.

Because Thou hast | been my | help: therefore under the shadow of Thy | wings will | I re- | joice.

Evening Prayer.

PSALM 65.

PRAISE waiteth for Thée, O | God, in | Zion: and unto Thée shall the vow | be per- | formed.

O Thou that hearest | prayer: únto | Thee shall | all flesh come.

Iníquities pre- | vail a- | gainst me: as for our transgressions, Thou shalt | purge | them a- | way. Blessed is the man whom Thou choosest, and causest to appróach | unto | Thee : that he may | dwell | in Thy | courts.

We shall be satisfied with the goodness of Thy | house: the holy | place of Thy | temple.
