Once more the solemn season calls
Do ye, O congregation, then
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Do ye, O congregation, then,
indeed speak righteousness?
O ye that are the sons of men,
judge ye with uprightness?
2 Yea, even within your very hearts
ye wickedness have done;
ye of your hands the violence
weigh out the earth upon.
3 Estranged the ungodly are,
even from the very womb;
they, speaking falsehood, stray as soon
as to the world they come.
4 Unto a serpent’s poison like
their poison doth appear;
yea, they are like the adder deaf,
that closely stops her ear;
5 That so she may not hear the voice
of one that charm her would,
no, not though he most cunning were,
and charm most wisely could.
6 Their teeth, O God, within their mouth
break thou in pieces small;
the great teeth break thou out, O Lord,
of these young lions all.
7 Let them like waters melt away,
which downward still do flow:
in pieces cut his arrows all,
when he shall bend his bow.
8 Like to a snail that melts away,
let each of them be gone:
like woman’s birth untimely, that
hath never seen the sun.
9 He shall them take away before
your pots the thorns can find,
both living, and in fury great,
as with a stormy wind.
10 The righteous when he vengeance sees
shall be most joyful then;
the righteous one shall wash his feet
in blood of wicked men.
11 So men shall say, The righteous man
reward shall never miss:
and verily upon the earth
a God to judge there is. Scripture: Psalm 58 Used With Tune: NORWICH
Do ye, O congregation, then
Keep not, O God, we thee entreat
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 9 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Keep not, O God, we thee entreat,
O keep not silence now:
no longer hold thy peace, O God,
at rest no more be thou.
2 For, lo, thine enemies a noise
tumultuously have made;
and they that haters are of thee
have lifted up the head.
3 Against thy chosen people they
do crafty counsel take;
and they against thy hidden ones
do consultations make.
4 Come, let us cut them off, said they,
no nation let them be;
nor let the name of Israel
be held in memory.
5 For with joint heart they plot, in league
against thee they combine:
6 the tents of Edom, Ishmaelites,
Moab’s and Hagar’s line;
7 Gebal, and Ammon, Amalek,
Philistines, those of Tyre;
8 and Assur joined with them, to help
Lot’s children they conspire.
9 Do to them as to Midian,
Jabin at Kison strand;
10 and Sis’ra, which at En-dor fell,
as dung to fat the land.
11 Like Oreb and like Zeeb make
their noble men to fall;
to Zeba and Zalmunna like,
make thou their princes all;
12 Who said, For our possession
God’s dwellings let us take;
13 like stubble whirled before the blast,
my God, do thou them make.
14 As fire consumes the wood, as flame
doth mountains set on fire,
15 chase and affright them with the storm
and tempest of thine ire.
16 Their faces fill with shame, O Lord,
that they may seek thy name.
17 Let them confounded be and vexed,
and perish in their shame:
18 that men may know, that thou, to whom
alone doth appertain
the name Jehovah, dost most high
o’er all the earth remain. Scripture: Psalm 83 Used With Tune: NORWICH
Keep not, O God, we thee entreat
Lord, from the ill and froward man
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 6 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Lord, from the ill and froward man
give me deliverance,
and do thou safe preserve me from
the man of violence:
2 who in their heart things mischievous
do meditate away:
and they for war together are
assembled every day.
3 Even like unto a serpent’s tongue
their tongues they sharp do make;
and underneath their lips there lies
the poison of a snake.
4 Lord, keep me from the wicked’s hands,
from violent men me save;
who utterly to overthrow
my goings purposed have.
5 The proud have hid a snare and cords,
for me have spread a net;
close by the path they have it spread;
and gins for me have set.
6 Then to the Lord thus did I say,
My God art thou, O Lord;
then hear my supplication's voice,
and help to me afford.
7 Jehovah, Lord, thou who the strength
of my salvation art,
thou to my head in day of war
protection dost impart.
8 Unto the wicked man, O Lord,
his wishes do not grant;
nor further thou his ill device,
lest they themselves should vaunt.
9 As for the head of those that do
about encompass me,
even by the mischief of their lips
let thou them covered be.
10 Let burning coals upon them fall,
them cast into the flame,
and pits so deep, that they no more
may rise out of the same.
11 A man of evil tongue shall not
on earth established be:
mischief shall hunt the violent
and waste him utterly.
12 The Lord, I know, will judge the poor,
maintain the afflicted's right.
13 The righteous shall extol thy name:
the just dwell in thy sight. Scripture: Psalm 140 Used With Tune: NORWICH
Lord, from the ill and froward man
