1Ps. cxxxix. 13.I will confess unto Thee, for I am wonderfullyi

2made, marvellous are Thy works, and my soul

3knoweth it right well.

4[ver. 14]My bones are not hid from Thee, which

5Thou madest in secret, and my substance in

6the lower parts of the earth.

7[ver. 15]Thine eyes did see my imperfection,

8and in Thy book were all my members

9written, when as yet there was none of them.

10Job x. 8.Thine hands have fashioned me wholly round

11about.

12[ver. 10]Thou hast milked me out as milk,

13And curdled me like cheese.

14[ver. 11]Thou hast clothed me with skin and flesh, and hast

15fenced me with bones and sinews;

16[ver. 12]Thou hast granted me life and mercy,

17and Thy visitation hath preserved my spirit.

18Ps. xvi. 7.I will bless the Lord, who hath given me

19understanding.

20Gen. xxxii. 10.O Lord, I am not worthy of all Thyii

21mercies, and of Thy truth, which Thou hast ful-

22filled unto Thy servant.With my staff I passed over this

23Jordan, and now I return with two

24bands.

25Ps. lxvi. 8.O bless our God, ye peoples,

26[ver. 9]and make the voice of His praise to be heard, who

27hath set my soul unto life, and hath not

28suffered my feet to be moved.

29[*Ps.*] xcii. 4.For Thou, Lord, hast made me glad through Thy

30work, in the operations of Thy hands will I

31rejoice.

1Ps. ciii. 1.Praise the Lord, O my soul, and all that

2is within me praise His holy Name.

3[*Ps.*] cxiii. 2.Praise the Lord, O my soul, and forgeti

4not all His benefits.

5[ver. 3]Who forgiveth all thine iniquities,

6who healeth all thine infirmities.

7[ver. 4]Who saveth thy life from destruction, who

8crowneth thee with mercy and loving-kindness.

9[ver. 5]Who satisfieth thy desire with good things,

10and thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.

11[*Ps.*] xxx. 12.Thou hast turned my heaviness into joy:

12Thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded

13me with gladness.

14[ver. 13]That I may sing of Thy glory, and not be

15pricked in conscience.

16O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto

17Thee for ever.

18[*Ps.*] lxxi. 18.How great troubles hast Thou shewed me,ii

19many and sore.And Thou didst turn and quicken

20me, and broughtest me from the deep of the earth

21again.

22[ver. 19]Thou hast multiplied Thy greatness, and

23turned and comforted me.

24[ver. 21]My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing

25unto Thee, and my soul, which Thou hast redeemed.

26[ver. 22]Yea, and my tongue shall talk of Thy

27righteousness all the day long.O God, who is like

28unto Thee?

29[*Ps.*] lxxii. 18.Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, who

30only doeth wondrous things, and blessed be the Name

1of His majesty, and let all the earth be filled

2with His majesty: so be it.

3Ps. cxiii. 2.Blessed be the Name of the Lord from this time

4forth for evermore.

5Ezek. iii. 12.Blessed be the glory of the Lord from His place.

7and power,

8and Godhead, and wisdom,

9[*Rev.*] v. 12, 13.And might, and dominion,

10[*Rev.*] vii. 10.And salvation,

11[ver. 12]And love, and thanksgiving,

12[*Rev.*] xix. 1.And praise,
