| [1]The `title of the threttenthe salm. To the victorie of Dauid. |
[1]In finem. Psalmus David. Dixit insipiens in corde suo: Non est Deus. Corrupti sunt, et abominabiles facti sunt in studiis suis; non est qui faciat bonum, non est usque ad unum. |
| [2]The Lord bihelde fro heuene on the sones of men; that he se, if ony is vndurstondynge, ethir sekynge God. |
[2]Dominus de cælo prospexit super filios hominum, ut videat si est intelligens, aut requirens Deum. |
| [3]Alle bowiden awei, togidere thei ben maad vnprofitable; noon is that doth good, noon is `til to oon. The throte of hem is an open sepulcre, thei diden gilefuli with her tungis; the venym of snakis is vndur her lippis. Whos mouth is ful of cursyng and bittirnesse; her feet ben swift to schede out blood. Sorewe and cursidnesse is in the weies of hem, and thei knewen not the weie of pees; the drede of God is not bifor her iyen. |
[3]Omnes declinaverunt, simul inutiles facti sunt. Non est qui faciat bonum, non est usque ad unum. Sepulchrum patens est guttur eorum; linguis suis dolose agebant. Venenum aspidum sub labiis eorum. Quorum os maledictione et amaritudine plenum est; veloces pedes eorum ad effundendum sanguinem. Contritio et infelicitas in viis eorum, et viam pacis non cognoverunt; non est timor Dei ante oculos eorum. |
| [4]Whether alle men that worchen wickidnesse schulen not knowe; that deuowren my puple, as mete of breed? |
[4]Nonne cognoscent omnes qui operantur iniquitatem, qui devorant plebem meam sicut escam panis? |
| [5]Thei clepeden not the Lord; thei trembliden there for dreed, where was no drede; |
[5]Dominum non invocaverunt; illic trepidaverunt timore, ubi non erat timor. |
| [6]for the Lord is in a riytful generacioun. Thou hast schent the counsel of a pore man; for the Lord is his hope. |
[6]Quoniam Dominus in generatione justa est, consilium inopis confudistis, quoniam Dominus spes ejus est. |
| 7[No verse] |
[7]Quis dabit ex Sion salutare Israël? Cum averterit Dominus captivitatem plebis suæ, exsultabit Jacob, et lætabitur Israël. |
