Evening Prayer. PSALM 130. ÓUT | of the depths: have I cried | unto | Thee, O| Lord. Lórd | hear my voice: let Thine ears be attentive to the voice of my | suppli- | cations. If Thou, Lórd, shouldest | mark in- | iquities: O' Lord who shall | stand? But there is for- | giveness with | Thee: thát | Thou mayest be feared. I wait for the Lórd, my soul doth | wait: and ín His word do I hope. My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning. Let Israel hope in the Lord, for with the Lórd| there is mercy: ánd with | Him is | plenteous re- | demption. And He shall re- | deem | Israel: fróm | all | his in- | iquities. PSALM 131. LORD, my heart is not háughty, nor mine | eyes | lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, ór in | things too high for me. Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is wéaned of his mother: my soul is éven | as a | weaned | child. Let Israel hópe | in the | Lord: fróm | henceforth and forever. THE NINETEENTH DAY. Morning Prayer. PSALM 132. LORD, re- member | David: ánd | all | his af-| flictions. How he swáre | unto the Lord: and vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob. Surely I will not come unto the tábernacle | of my | house: nór go up | into my | bed. I will not give sléep | to mine | eyes: ór | slumber | to mine eyelids, Until I find out a pláce | for the Lord: an habitátion for the mighty | God of | Jacob. Arise, O Lórd | into Thy | rest: Thóu, and the | ark of Thy | strength. Let Thy priests be clothed with | righteousness: and lét Thy saints | shout for | joy. For the Lord hath | chosen | Zion: he hath desired ít | for His | habi- | tation. This is My rest for ever: here will I dwell | for I have de- | sired it. I will abundantly bléss | her pro- | vision: I will sátisfy her poor with | bread. I will also clothe her priests with sal- | vation: and her sáints shall | shout a- | loud for | joy. PSALM 133. BEHOLD, how good and how | pleasant it | is: for brethren to dwell to- | gether in unity. It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the that went down to the beard, éven | Aaron's | beard: skirts | of his garments ; As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the | mountains of | Zion: for there the Lord commanded the blessing, éven | life for | ever- | more. Evening Prayer. BEHOLD, bless ye the Lord, all ye sérvants of the | Lord who by night stánd in the house | of the| Lord. Lift up your hands in the sanctuary: ánd | bless the Lord. --- The Lord that made | heaven and | earth : bléss | thee out of Zion. PSALM 135. O PRAISE the Lord, laud ye the Náme of the | Lord praise it, O' ye | servants of the Ye that stand in the house | of the courts of the house | of our | God. Lord; O praise the Lórd, for the Lord is gracious: O sing praises únto His | Name, for it is | lovely. Thy Name, O Lord, en- | dureth for ever: so doth Thy memorial, O Lord, from óne gener- ation | to - | other. an PSALM 136. O GIVE thanks unto the Lórd, for | He is | good: fór His mercy en- dureth for ever. O give thanks unto the God of | gods: fór His | mercy en- dureth for ever. O give thanks unto the Lord of | lords: fór His | mercy en- | dureth for | ever. To Him who alóne | doeth great | wonders: fór His mercy en- | dureth for | ever. To Him that by wisdom | made the | heavens : fór His mercy en- | dureth for | ever. To Him that stretched out the earth a- | bove the mercy en- | dureth for | ever. made great | lights: fór His mercy waters fór His To Hím that en- dureth for ever. The sún to rule by | day: fór His mercy en- | dureth for ever. The moon and stárs to | rule by | night: fór His | mercy en- dureth for ever. Who remembered ús in our | low es- | tate: fór His mercy en- | dureth for | ever. en Who giveth food to all | flesh: fór His mercy - | dureth for | ever. O give thanks unto the | God of | heaven : fór His | mercy en| dureth for ever. THE TWENTIETH DAY. Morning Prayer. PSALM 137. By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down | yea, we wept whén | we re- | membered | Zion. We hanged our hárps up- on the willows: ín the midst | there- | of. For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song: and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Síng us one of the songs of Zion. How shall we sing the Lord's | song: ín | strange | land? -al If I forget thée | O Je- | rusalem: lét my right | hand for- get her cunning. If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth: if I prefer not Jerusalém a-bove my chief | joy. PSALM 138. I WILL praise Thée with my whole | heart: before the gods will I' sing | praise | unto | Thee. I will worship toward Thy holy temple, and praise Thy name for Thy loving-kindness and | for Thy | truth for Thou hast magnified Thy wórd a- | bove | all Thy | name. In the day when I cried Thou | answeredst | me: and strengthenedst mé with | strength | in my | soul. All the kings of the earth shall práise | Thee, O| Lord when they hear the words of Thy | mouth. | Yea, they shall sing in the wáys | of the | Lord: for gréat is the glory of the | Lord. Though the Lord be high, yet hath He respéct | unto the | lowly: but the proud He | knoweth a- | far off. Though I walked in the midst of trouble | Thou wilt re- vive me: Thou shalt stretch forth Thine hand against the wrath of mine enémies, and | Thy right hand shall | save me. The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me; Thy mercy, O Lórd, en- dureth for ever: forsake not the works of Thine | own hands. |
