A PSALM
Tue Lord hath filled my mouth with thanksgiving; the
Righteousness of the Lord hatli made my throat his
habitation.
The pavilion of the Lord is the roof of my mouth; the gate-
way of the Lord is of ivory.
My tongue is the handmaiden of the Lord; the Lord hath
delighted in the palace of porphyry.
My lips shall rejoice in the righteousness of the Lord; my
belly shall give thank, for the Lord filleth it with bene-
diction.
Iam the vessel of the Lord; the Lord delighteth in me; the
Lord hath brought me to fulfilment.
Give praise unto the Lord, all ye that love the Lord; rejoice
in Him, ye sons and daughters of enlightenment.
Behold, the Lord is exalted in righteousness; His upright-
ness filleth the earth with praise.
For the Lord filleth my mouth with silence; and the blessing
of the Lord is my satisfaction.
With secret song do I magnify the Lord; and His utterance
is Light.
