For He hath founded it upon the seas: and established it upon the floods.

Thou art my hiding-place, Thou shalt preserve me from trouble: Thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance.

Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed: and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;

Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled: though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof.

There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God: the holy place of the tabernacles of the Most High.

God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.

The heathen raged, the kingsion is forgiven: whose sin is doms were moved: He uttered His covered.

Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity: and in whose spirit there is no guile.

The LORD of hosts is with us: the God of Jacob is our Refuge.

Come, behold the works of the LORD: what desolations He hath made in the earth.

He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth: He breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder, He burneth the chariot in the fire.

Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.

The LORD of hosts is with us: the God of Jacob is our Refuge.

Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my Refuge: even the Most High, thy habitation;

There shall no evil befall thee: neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

For He shall give His angels charge over thee: to keep thee in all thy ways.

They shall bear thee up in their hands: lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

Because he hath set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known My Name.

He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him, and honor him.

With long life will I satisfy him: and show him My salvation.

I will say of the LORD, He is my Refuge and my Fortress: my God, in Him will I trust.

Surely He shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler: and from the noisome pestilence.

He shall cover thee with His feathers, and under His wings shalt thou trust: His truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

Bless the LORD, O my soul: and they go down again to the depths: forget not all His benefits; their soul is melted because of trouble.

Who forgiveth all thine iniquities: Who healeth all thy diseases; Who redeemeth thy life from destruction: Who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;

Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things: so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.

The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment: for all that are oppressed.

The Lord is merciful and gracious: slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.

He will not always chide: neither will He keep His anger for ever.

He hath not dealt with us after our sins: nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.

They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man: and are at their wit's end.

Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble: and He bringeth them out of their distresses.

He maketh the storm a calm; so that the waves thereof are still.

Then are they glad because they be quiet: so He bringeth them unto their desired haven.

O that men would praise the LORD for His goodness: and for His wonderful works to the children of men.

Thou hast beset me behind and before: and laid Thine hand upon me.

Such knowledge is too wonderful for me: it is high, I cannot attain unto it.

Whither shall I go from Thy Spirit: or whither shall I flee from Thy presence?

If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, Thou art there.

If I take the wings of the morning: and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;

Even there shall Thy hand lead me: and Thy right hand shall hold

Yea, the darkness hideth not from Thee, but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to Thee.

Psalm 145.

WILL extol Thee, my God, O King: and I will bless Thy Name for ever and ever.

Every day will I bless Thee: and I will praise Thy Name for ever and ever.

Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised: and His greatness is unsearchable.

I will speak of the glorious honor of Thy majesty: and of Thy wondrous works.

And men shall speak of the might of Thy terrible acts: and I will declare Thy greatness.

The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion: slow to anger, and of great mercy.

They shall abundantly utter the saith unto Peter, Simon, sleepest memory of Thy great goodness: thou? couldest not thou watch one and shall sing of Thy righteous- hour? Watch ye and lest ye pray, enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak. And again he went away, and prayed, and spake the same words. And when he returned, he found them asleep again, (for their eyes were heavy,) neither wist they what to answer him. And he cometh the third time, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

The LORD is good to all: and His tender mercies are over all His works.

All Thy works shall praise Thee, O LORD: and Thy saints shall bless Thee.

They shall speak of the glory of Thy kingdom: and talk of Thy power;

To make known to the sons of men His mighty acts: and the glorious majesty of His kingdom.

Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom: and Thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.

The LORD upholdeth all that fall: and raiseth up all those that be bowed down.

The eyes of all wait upon Thee: and Thou givest them their meat in due season.

Thou openest Thine hand: and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.

Mark 14:32-41.

ND they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he saith to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray. And he taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy; and saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death: tarry ye here, and watch. And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him. And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt. And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and

fore unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away. And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha: where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst. And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS. Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son! Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home. After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst. Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth.
