[[To him that excelleth.] A Psalm Chapter of David.]
[1]The title of the twentithe salm. To victorie, the salm of Dauid. [1]The Lord hear thee in the day of trouble: the name of the God of Jacob defend thee:
[2]Lord, the kyng schal be glad in thi vertu; and he schal ful out haue ioye greetli on thin helthe. [2]Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion.
[3]Thou hast youe to hym the desire of his herte; and thou hast not defraudid hym of the wille of hise lippis. [3]Let him remember all thine offerings, and turn thy burnt offerings into ashes. Selah:
[4]For thou hast bifor come hym in the blessyngis of swetnesse; thou hast set on his heed a coroun of preciouse stoon. [4]And grant thee according to thine heart, and fulfill all thy purpose:
[5]He axide of thee lijf, and thou yauest to hym; the lengthe of daies in to the world, `and in to the world of world. [5]That we may rejoice in thy salvation, and set up the banner in the name of our God, when the Lord shall perform all thy petitions.
[6]His glorie is greet in thin helthe; thou schalt putte glorie, and greet fayrnesse on hym. [6]Now know I that the Lord will help his anointed, and will hear him from his sanctuary, by the mighty help of his right hand.
[7]For thou schalt yyue hym in to blessing in to the world of world; thou schalt make hym glad in ioye with thi cheer. [7]Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the Lord our God.
[8]For the kyng hopith in the Lord; and in the merci of the hiyeste he schal not be moued. [8]They are brought down and fallen, but we are risen, and stand upright.
[9]Thyn hond be foundun to alle thin enemyes; thi riythond fynde alle hem that haten thee. [9]Save Lord: let the king hear us in the day that we call.
