Psalms 126:2 b He sheweth how the godlie oght to rejoyce, when God gathereth his Church or deliuereth it.

Psalms 126:2 c If the infideles confesse Gods wonderful worke, the faithful can neuer shewe themselue sufficiently thankeful.

Psalms 126:4 d It is no more impossible to God to deliuer his people, then to cause the riuers to runne in the wildernes and barren places.

Psalms 126:6 e That is sede which was scarse & dere: meaning, that thei which trusted in Gods promes to returne, had their desire.
