5 The flouds have lifted up their waves: with the voices of many waters.

6 Wonderful are the surges of the sea wonderful is the Lord on high.

7 Thy testimonies are made exceedingly credible: holiness becometh thy house, O Lord, unto length of days.

Glory, &c.

PSALM XCIX.

1 Sing joyfully unto God, all the earth: serve ye the Lord with gladness.

2 Come ye in before his presence with exceeding joy.

3 Know ye that the Lord he is God: he hath made us, and not we ourselves.

4 We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture: go ye into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with hymns; give glory unto him.

5 Praise ye his name, for the Lord is gracious, his mercy is everlasting and his truth endureth from generation to generation.

Glory, &c.

PSALM LXII.

1 O God, my God: to thee do I watch at break of day.

2 My soul hath thirsted for

quam multiplíciter tibi caro

In terra desérta, et invia, et inaquósa ;* sic in sancto appárui tibi, ut vidérem virtútem tuam, et glóriam tuam.

Quóniam mélior est misericórdia tua super vitas:* lábia mea laudábunt te.

Sic benedícam te in vita mea:* et in nómine tuo levábo manus meas.

Sicut ádipe et pinguédine repleátur ánima mea;* et lábiis exultatiónis laudábit os meum.

Si memor fui tui super stratum meum, in matutinis meditábor in te,* quia fuísti adjútor meus.

Et in velaménto alárum tuárum exultábo; adhæsit ánima mea post te:* suscépit déxtera tua.

Rex vero lætábitur in Deo, laudabúntur omnes qui jurant in eo;* quia obstrúctum est os loquéntium iníqua.

Hic non dicitur Glória Patri.

thee my flesh also, in ways how manifold.

3 In a desert and pathless land, where no water is: so have I appeared before thee in the sanctuary, that I might behold thy power and thy glory.

4 For thy mercy is better than many lives: my lips shall praise thee.

5 Thus will I bless thee all my life and in thy name will I lift up my hands.

6 Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness: and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips.

7 If I have remembered thee upon my bed, in the morning will I meditate upon thee: for thou hast been my helper.

8 And under the cover of thy wings will I rejoice; my soul hath cleaved unto thee: thy right hand hath upholden me.

9 But they have sought my soul in vain; they shall go into the lower parts of the earth: they shall be delivered into the power of the sword, they shall be the portion of foxes.

10 But the king shall rejoice in God, all they shall be praised that swear by him: for the mouth of them that speak iniquity is stopped.

Gloria is not said here.
