PSALMS. 285
15 Who hate the Lord fliould then be fain
To bow to him and bend,
But they, his people, JJiould remain,
Their time mould have no end.
16 And he would feed them from thefliock
With flour of fineft wheat,
And fatisfy them from the rock
With honeyfor their meat.
PSALM LXXXIL
1 God in the great aflembly (lands
Of kings and lordlyfates,
Among the Gods, on both his hands
He judges and debates.
2 How long will ye pervert the right
With judgment falfe and wrong,
Favouring the wicked byyour might,
Who thence grow bold andfrong ?
3 Regard the weak and fatheflefs,
Difpatch the poor man's caufe,
And raife the man in deep diftrefs
By juft and equal laws.
4 Defend the poor and defolate,
And refcue from the hands
Of wicked men the low eftate
Of him that help demands.
5 They know not, nor will underftand,
In darknefs they walk on,
The earth's foundations all are mov'd,
And out of order gone.
