Dauids freindes aduising him to flee from the persecution of Saul, he answereth, that his trust is

1 Vnto the end the psalme of Dauid
I TRVST in our Lord: how say ye to my soule: Passe ouer vnto the mountayne as a
sparrow?
2 For behold sinners haue bent the bow, they haue prepared their arrowes in the
quiuer, that they may shoote in the darke, at them that be right of hart.
3 For they haue destroyed the thinges, which thou didst perfite: but the iust what
hath he done?
4 Our Lord is in his holie temple, our Lord his seate is in heauen.
5 His eies haue respect vnto the poore: his eieliddes examine the sonnes of men.
6 Our Lord examineth the iust, and the impious: but he that loueth iniquity,
hateth his owne soule.
7 He shal rayne snares vpon sinners: fyre and brimstone, and blast of stormes the
portion of their cuppe.
8 Because our Lord is iust and hath loued iustice: his countenance hath seene equitie.
