[1]OhH3863 that thou wouldest rendH7167[H8804] the heavensH8064, that thou wouldest come downH3381[H8804], that the mountainsH2022 might flow downH2151[H8738] at thy presenceH6440, |
[1]I wolde that thou brakist heuenes, and camest doun, that hillis fletiden awei fro thi face, |
[2]As when the meltingH2003 fireH784 burnethH6919[H8800], the fireH784 causeth the watersH4325 to boilH1158[H8799], to make thy nameH8034 knownH3045[H8687] to thine adversariesH6862, that the nationsH1471 may trembleH7264[H8799] at thy presenceH6440! |
[2]and failiden as brennyng of fier, and brente in fier; that thi name were made knowun to thin enemyes, and folkis weren disturblid of thi face. |
[3]When thou didstH6213[H8800] terrible thingsH3372[H8737] which we lookedH6960[H8762] not for, thou camest downH3381[H8804], the mountainsH2022 flowed downH2151[H8738] at thy presenceH6440. |
[3]Whanne thou schalt do merueils, we schulen not abide. Thou camest doun, and hillis fletiden awei fro thi face. |
[4]For since the beginning of the worldH5769 men have not heardH8085[H8804], nor perceived by the earH238[H8689], neither hath the eyeH5869 seenH7200[H8804], O GodH430, besideH2108 thee, what he hath preparedH6213[H8799] for him that waitethH2442 for himH8764. |
[4]Fro the world thei herden not, nethir perseyueden with eeris; God, non iye siy, withouten thee, what thingis thou hast maad redi to hem that abiden thee. |
[5]Thou meetestH6293[H8804] him that rejoicethH7797[H8801] and workethH6213[H8802] righteousnessH6664, those that rememberH2142[H8799] thee in thy waysH1870: behold, thou art wrothH7107[H8804]; for we have sinnedH2398[H8799]: in those is continuanceH5769, and we shall be savedH3467.[H8735] |
[5]Thou mettist hym that is glad, and doith riytfulnesse; in thi weies thei schulen bithenke on thee. Lo! thou art wrooth, and we synneden; in tho synnes we weren euere, and we schulen be saued. |
[6]But we are all as an uncleanH2931 thing, and all our righteousnessesH6666 are as filthyH5708 ragsH899; and we all do fadeH5034[H8799][H8676][H1101][H8686] as a leafH5929; and our iniquitiesH5771, like the windH7307, have taken us awayH5375.[H8799] |
[6]And alle we ben maad as an vncleene man; alle oure riytfulnessis ben as the cloth of a womman in vncleene blood; and alle we fellen doun as a leef, and our wickidnessis as wynd han take awei vs. |
[7]And there is none that callethH7121[H8802] upon thy nameH8034, that stirreth upH5782[H8711] himself to take holdH2388[H8687] of thee: for thou hast hidH5641[H8689] thy faceH6440 from us, and hast consumedH4127[H8799] us, becauseH3027 of our iniquitiesH5771. |
[7]Noon is, that clepith thi name to help, that risith, and holdith thee; thou hast hid thi face fro vs, and thou hast hurtlid doun vs in the hond of oure wickidnesse. |
[8]But now, O LORDH3068, thou art our fatherH1; we are the clayH2563, and thou our potterH3335[H8802]; and we all are the workH4639 of thy handH3027. |
[8]And now, Lord, thou art oure fadir; forsothe we ben cley, and thou art oure maker, and alle we ben the werkis of thin hondis. |
[9]Be not wrothH7107[H8799] very soreH3966, O LORDH3068, neither rememberH2142[H8799] iniquityH5771 for everH5703: behold, seeH5027[H8685], we beseech thee, we are all thy peopleH5971. |
[9]Lord, be thou not wrooth ynow, and haue thou no more mynde on oure wickidnesse. Lo! Lord, biholde thou, alle we ben thi puple. |
[10]Thy holyH6944 citiesH5892 are a wildernessH4057, ZionH6726 is a wildernessH4057, JerusalemH3389 a desolationH8077. |
[10]The citee of thi seyntuarie is forsakun, Sion is maad deseert, Jerusalem is desolat; |
[11]Our holyH6944 and our beautifulH8597 houseH1004, where our fathersH1 praisedH1984[H8765] thee, is burned upH8316 with fireH784: and all our pleasant thingsH4261 are laid wasteH2723. |
[11]the hous of oure halewyng and of oure glorie, where oure fadris herieden thee, is maad in to brennyng of fier; and alle oure desirable thingis ben turned in to fallyngis. |
[12]Wilt thou refrainH662[H8691] thyself for these things, O LORDH3068? wilt thou hold thy peaceH2814[H8799], and afflictH6031[H8762] us very soreH3966? |
[12]Lord, whether on these thingis thou schalt witholde thee? schalt thou be stille, and schalt thou turmente vs greetli? |
