This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created, shall praise the Lord.

For hee hath looked downe from the height of his Sanctuarie: from heauen did the Lord beholde the earth:

The Lord executeth righteousnesse: and iudgement for all that are oppressed.

Hee will not alwayes chide: neither will he keepe his anger for euer.

For as the heauen is high aboue the earth: so great is his mercy toward them that feare him.

For he knoweth our frame: hee remembreth that we are dust.

As for man, his dayes are as grasse: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.

For the winde passeth ouer it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.

Who laid the foundations of the earth: that it should not be remoued for euer.

They go vp by the mountaines: they goe downe by the valleys vnto the place which thou hast founded for them.

He causeth the grasse to grow for the cattell, and herbe for the seruice of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth:

Where the birds make their nests: as for the Storke, the firre trees are her house.

The hie hilles are a refuge for the wilde goates: and the rockes for the conies.

He appointed the moone for seasons; the sunne knoweth his going downe.

The glory of the Lord shall endure for euer: the Lord shall reioyce in his workes.

He hath remembred his couenant for euer: the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.

And confirmed the same vnto Iacob for a law: and to Israel for an euerlasting couenant:

He suffred no man to doe them wrong: yea he reproued kings for their sakes:

Moreouer hee called for a famine vpon the land: he brake the whole staffe of bread.

Hee sent a man before them: euen Ioseph, who was sold for a seruant.
