Psalm 67:2
Let god arise

LET GOD ARISE/ and let his enemies be scattered: and let them that hate him flee from his face./ As smoke vanishes away/ let them vanish away: as/ wax melts in the presence of/ fire: so let sinners perish in the presence of god./ And let the just feast and rejoice in the sight of god:/ and let them be delighted in gladness./ Sing to god say a psalm to his name:/ make a way for him who mounts upon the west:/ the lord is his name./ Rejoice in his sight they shall be troubled at the presence of him:/ the father of orphans and judge of widows./ God in his holy place: god that makes [men] of one manner to inhabit in a house./ Who brings out them that bound in strength: likewise those/ who provoke that dwell in graves./

Exurgat d[eu]s
EXURGAT D[EU]S / et dissipentur ini/mici eius: et fugiant / qui oderunt eum / a facie eius. / Sicut deficit fum[us] / deficiant: sicut / fluit cera a facie / ignis: sic pereant / peccatores a facie dei. / Et iusti [a]epulent[ur] et exultent in conspectu dei: / et delectentur in l[a]etici. / Cantate deo psalmum dicite nomini eius: / iter facite ei qui ascendit sup[er] occasum: / dominus nomen illi. / Exultate in conspectu eius turbabunt[ur] a facie eius: / patris orphanor[um] et iudicis viduarum. / D[eu]s in loco s[an]c[t]o suo: d[eu]s qui in/habitare facit / unius moris in domo. / Qui [a]educit vinctos in fortitudine: similit[er] eos / qui exasperant q[u]i habitant in sepulchris. /
