78:1 Maschil
of
Asaph.
Giue
eare,
O
my
people,
to
my
Lawe:
incline
your
eares
to
the
wordes
of
my
mouth.
78:2 I
will
open
my
mouth
in
a
parable:
I
wil
vtter
darke
sayings
of
old:
78:3 Which
we
haue
heard,
&
knowen:
and
our
fathers
haue
told
vs.
78:4 We
will
not
hide
them
from
their
children,
shewing
to
the
generation
to
come,
the
praises
of
the
Lord:
and
his
strength,
and
his
wonderful
works
that
he
hath
done.
78:5 For
he
established
a
Testimony
in
Iacob,
and
appointed
a
Law
in
Israel,
which
he
commaunded
our
fathers:
that
they
should
make
them
knowen
to
their
children.
78:6 That
the
generation
to
come
might
know
them,
euen
the
children
which
should
be
borne:
who
should
arise
and
declare
them
to
their
children:
78:7 That
they
might
set
their
hope
in
God,
and
not
forget
the
works
of
God:
but
keepe
his
Commandements,
78:8 And
might
not
bee
as
their
fathers,
a
stubborne
and
rebellious
generation,
a
generation
that
set
not
their
heart
aright:
and
whose
spirit
was
not
stedfast
with
God.
78:9 The
children
of
Ephraim
being
armed,
and
carying
bowes,
turned
backe
in
the
day
of
battell.
78:10 They
kept
not
the
couenant
of
God:
and
refused
to
walke
in
his
Law:
78:11 And
forgat
his
workes:
and
his
wonders
that
he
had
shewed
them.
78:12 Marueilous
things
did
he
in
the
sight
of
their
fathers:
in
the
land
of
Egypt,
in
the
field
of
Zoan.
78:13 Hee
diuided
the
Sea,
and
caused
them
to
passe
through:
and
he
made
the
waters
to
stand
as
an
heape.
78:14 In
the
day
time
also
he
led
them
with
a
cloud:
and
all
the
night
with
a
light
of
fire.
78:15 Hee
claue
the
rockes
in
the
wildernes:
and
gaue
them
drinke
as
out
of
the
great
depthes.
78:16 Hee
brought
streames
also
out
of
the
rocke,
and
caused
waters
to
runne
downe
like
riuers.
78:17 And
they
sinned
yet
more
against
him:
by
prouoking
the
most
High
in
the
wildernes.
78:18 And
they
tempted
God
in
their
heart:
by
asking
meat
for
their
lust.
78:19 Yea,
they
spake
against
God:
they
said,
Can
God
furnish
a
table
in
the
wildernes
78:20 Behold,
he
smote
the
rocke,
that
the
waters
gushed
out,
&
the
streames
ouerflowed;
can
he
giue
bread
also
Can
he
prouide
flesh
for
his
people
78:21 Therefore
the
Lord
heard
this,
and
was
wroth,
so
a
fire
was
kindled
against
Iacob:
and
anger
also
came
vp
against
Israel.
78:22 Because
they
beleeued
not
in
God:
and
trusted
not
in
his
saluation:
78:23 Though
he
had
commanded
the
cloudes
from
aboue:
and
opened
the
doores
of
heauen:
78:24 And
had
rained
downe
Manna
vpon
them
to
eate,
and
had
giuen
them
of
the
corne
of
heauen.
78:25 Man
did
eate
Angels
food:
hee
sent
them
meat
to
the
full.
78:26 He
caused
an
East
wind
to
blow
in
the
heauen:
and
by
his
power
hee
brought
in
the
South
wind.
78:27 He
rained
flesh
also
vpon
them
as
dust:
and
feathered
soules
like
as
the
sand
of
the
sea.
78:28 And
hee
let
it
fall
in
the
midst
of
their
campe,
round
about
their
habitations.
78:29 So
they
did
eate,
&
were
well
filled:
for
he
gaue
them
their
owne
desire.
78:30 They
were
not
estranged
from
their
lust:
but
while
their
meate
was
yet
in
their
mouthes,
78:31 The
wrath
of
God
came
vpon
them,
and
slew
the
fattest
of
them:
and
smote
downe
the
chosen
men
of
Israel.
78:32 For
all
this
they
sinned
still:
and
beleeued
not
for
his
wondrous
works.
78:33 Therefore
their
dayes
did
he
consume
in
vanitie,
and
their
yeeres
in
trouble.
78:34 When
hee
slew
them,
then
they
sought
him:
and
they
returned,
and
inquired
early
after
God.
78:35 And
they
remembred
that
God
was
their
rocke:
and
the
high
God,
their
redeemer.
78:36 Neuerthelesse
they
did
flatter
him
with
their
mouth:
and
they
lyed
vnto
him
with
their
tongues.
78:37 For
their
heart
was
not
right
with
him:
neither
were
they
stedfast
in
his
couenant.
78:38 But
hee
being
full
of
compassion,
forgaue
their
iniquity,
and
destroyed
them
not;
yea
many
a
time
turned
he
his
anger
away,
and
did
not
stirre
vp
all
his
wrath.
78:39 For
he
remembred
that
they
were
but
flesh;
a
wind
that
passeth
away,
and
commeth
not
againe.
78:40 How
oft
did
they
prouoke
him
in
the
wildernesse:
and
grieue
him
in
the
desert
78:41 Yea
they
turned
backe
and
tempted
God:
and
limited
the
holy
one
of
Israel.
78:42 They
remembred
not
his
hand:
nor
the
day
when
hee
deliuered
them
from
the
enemie:
78:43 How
he
had
wrought
his
signes
in
Egypt:
and
his
wonders
in
the
field
of
Zoan:
78:44 And
had
turned
their
riuers
into
blood:
and
their
flouds,
that
they
could
not
drinke.
78:45 Hee
sent
diuers
sorts
of
flies
among
them,
which
deuoured
them:
and
frogges
which
destroyed
them.
78:46 He
gaue
also
their
increase
vnto
the
caterpiller:
and
their
labour
vnto
the
locust.
78:47 He
destroyed
their
vines
with
haile:
and
their
Sycomore
trees
with
frost.
78:48 He
gaue
vp
their
cattel
also
to
the
haile:
and
their
flockes
to
hot
thunder-bolts.
78:49 He
cast
vpon
them
the
fiercenesse
of
his
anger,
wrath
and
indignation,
and
trouble:
by
sending
euill
angels
among
them.
78:50 He
made
a
way
to
his
anger,
hee
spared
not
their
soule
from
death:
but
gaue
their
life
ouer
to
the
pestilence.
78:51 And
smote
all
the
first
borne
in
Egypt:
the
chiefe
of
their
strength
in
the
tabernacles
of
Ham:
78:52 But
made
his
owne
people
to
goe
forth
like
sheepe:
and
guided
them
in
the
wildernesse
like
a
flocke.
78:53 And
he
led
them
on
safely,
so
that
they
feared
not:
but
the
sea
ouerwhelmed
their
enemies.
78:54 And
he
brought
them
to
the
border
of
his
sanctuarie:
euen
to
this
mountaine
which
his
right
hand
had
purchased.
78:55 He
cast
out
the
heathen
also
before
them,
and
diuided
them
an
inheritance
by
line:
and
made
the
tribes
of
Israel
to
dwell
in
their
tents.
78:56 Yet
they
tempted
and
prouoked
the
most
high
God:
and
kept
not
his
testimonies:
78:57 But
turned
backe,
and
dealt
vnfaithfully
like
their
fathers:
they
were
turned
aside
like
a
deceitfull
bowe.
78:58 For
they
prouoked
him
to
anger
with
their
high
places:
and
moued
him
to
ielousie
with
their
grauen
images.
78:59 When
God
heard
this,
hee
was
wroth,
and
greatly
abhorred
Israel:
78:60 So
that
he
forsooke
the
tabernacle
of
Shiloh:
the
tent
which
he
placed
among
men,
78:61 And
deliuered
his
strength
into
captiuitie:
and
his
glory
into
the
enemies
hand.
78:62 He
gaue
his
people
ouer
also
vnto
the
sword:
and
was
wroth
with
his
inheritance.
78:63 The
fire
consumed
their
young
men:
and
their
maidens
were
not
giuen
to
mariage.
78:64 Their
priests
fell
by
the
sword:
and
their
widowes
made
no
lamentation.
78:65 Then
the
Lord
awaked
as
one
out
of
sleepe:
and
like
a
mighty
man
that
shouteth
by
reason
of
wine.
78:66 And
he
smote
his
enemies
in
the
hinder
parts:
he
put
them
to
a
perpetuall
reproch.
78:67 Moreouer
he
refused
the
tabernacle
of
Ioseph:
and
chose
not
the
tribe
of
Ephraim.
78:68 But
chose
the
tribe
of
Iudah:
the
mount
Sion
which
he
loued.
78:69 And
he
built
his
sanctuarie
like
high
palaces:
like
the
earth
which
he
hath
established
for
euer.
78:70 He
chose
Dauid
also
his
seruant,
and
tooke
him
from
the
sheepe-folds:
78:71 From
following
the
ewes
great
with
young,
hee
brought
him
to
feed
Iacob
his
people,
and
Israel
his
inheritance.
78:72 So
he
fed
them
according
to
the
integritie
of
his
heart:
and
guided
them
by
the
skilfulnesse
of
his
hands.
