King James Version
KJV
[1]The title of the eiyt and twentithe salm. The salm, ethir song of Dauid. Ye sones of God, brynge to the Lord; brynge ye to the Lord the sones of rammes. [1]Unto thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
[2]Brynge ye to the Lord glorie and onour; brynge ye to the Lord glorie to his name; herie ye the Lord in his hooli large place. [2]Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.
[3]The vois of the Lord on watris, God of mageste thundride; the Lord on many watris. [3]Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts.
[4]The vois of the Lord in vertu; the vois of the Lord in greet doyng. [4]Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert.
[5]The vois of the Lord brekynge cedris; and the Lord schal breke the cedris of the Liban. [5]Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.
[6]And he schal al to-breke hem to dust as a calf of the Liban; and the derling was as the sone of an vnycorn. [6]Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
[7]The vois of the Lord departynge the flawme of fier; [7]The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.
[8]the vois of the Lord schakynge desert; and the Lord schal stire togidere the desert of Cades. [8]The LORD is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed.
[9]The vois of the Lord makynge redi hertis, and he schal schewe thicke thingis; and in his temple alle men schulen seie glorie. [9]Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.
