The providence of God

(Romans 4:1-12)
1
A Psalme of David to give instruction. Blessed is he whose wickednes is forgiuen, and whose sinne is couered.
2
Blessed is the man, vnto whom the Lord imputeth not iniquitie, and in whose spirite there is no guile.
3
When I helde my tongue, my bones consumed, or when I roared all the day,
4
(For thine hand is heauie vpon me, day and night: and my moysture is turned into ye drought of summer. Selah)
5
Then I acknowledged my sinne vnto thee, neither hid I mine iniquitie: for I thought, I will confesse against my selfe my wickednesse vnto the Lord, and thou forgauest the punishment of my sinne. Selah.
6
Therefore shall euery one, that is godly, make his prayer vnto thee in a time, when thou mayest be founde: surely in the flood of great waters they shall not come neere him.
7
Thou art my secret place: thou preseruest me from trouble: thou compassest me about with ioyfull deliuerance. Selah.
8
I will instruct thee, and teache thee in the way that thou shalt goe, and I will guide thee with mine eye.
9
Be ye not like an horse, or like a mule, which vnderstand not: whose mouthes thou doest binde with bit and bridle, least they come neere thee.
10
Many sorowes shall come to the wicked: but he, that trusteth in the Lord, mercie shall compasse him.
11
Be glad ye righteous, and reioyce in the Lord, and be ioyfull all ye, that are vpright in heart.

The providence of God

(Romans 4:1-12)
1
Blessed is he whose disobedience is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
2
Blessed is the man to whom the LORD doesn’t impute iniquity, in whose spirit there is no deceit.
3
When I kept silence, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.
4
For day and night your hand was heavy on me. My strength was sapped in the heat of summer. Selah.
5
I acknowledged my sin to you. I didn’t hide my iniquity. I said, I will confess my transgressions to the LORD, and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah.
6
For this, let everyone who is godly pray to you in a time when you may be found. Surely when the great waters overflow, they shall not reach to him.
7
You are my hiding place. You will preserve me from trouble. You will surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah.
8
I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go. I will counsel you with my eye on you.
9
Don’t be like the horse, or like the mule, which have no understanding, who are controlled by bit and bridle, or else they will not come near to you.
10
Many sorrows come to the wicked, but loving kindness shall surround him who trusts in the LORD.
11
Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, you righteous! Shout for joy, all you who are upright in heart!
