[1]The title of the nyne and twentithe salm. The salm of song, for the halewyng of the hows of Dauid. [1]A tribute vnto God O ye sonnes of princes: attribute vnto God glory and strength
[2]Lord, Y schal enhaunse thee, for thou hast vp take me; and thou delitidist not myn enemyes on me. [2]Geue to God glory [due] vnto his name: worship God with holy honour
[3]Mi Lord God, Y criede to thee; and thou madist me hool. [3]The voyce of God is aboue waters: it is the Lorde of glory that thundreth, it is God that ruleth the sea
[4]Lord, thou leddist out my soule fro helle; thou sauedist me fro hem that goen doun into the lake. [4]The voyce of God is with power: the voyce of God is with honour
[5]Ye seyntis of the Lord, synge to the Lord; and knowleche ye to the mynde of his hoolynesse. [5]The voyce of God breaketh the Cedar trees: yea God breaketh the Cedars of Libanus
[6]For ire is in his indignacioun; and lijf is in his wille. Wepyng schal dwelle at euentid; and gladnesse at the morewtid. [6]And he maketh them to skip like a calfe: Libanus also and Sirion like a young vnicorne
[7]Forsothe Y seide in my plentee; Y schal not be moued with outen ende. [7](29:7a) The voyce of God casteth out flambes of fire
[8]Lord, in thi wille; thou hast youe vertu to my fairnesse. Thou turnedist awei thi face fro me; and Y am maad disturblid. [8](29:7b) the voyce of God maketh the wyldernesse to tremble, God maketh the wyldernesse of Cades to tremble
[9]Lord, Y schal crye to thee; and Y schal preye to my God. [9](29:8) The voyce of God maketh Hindes to cast their calfe, and maketh woods to be bare: therefore euery man setteth foorth his glory in his temple
[10]What profit is in my blood; while Y go doun in to corrupcioun? Whether dust schal knouleche to thee; ethir schal telle thi treuthe? [10](29:9) God sitteth in the flud: and God wil sit king for euer
[11]The Lord herde, and hadde merci on me; the Lord is maad myn helpere. [11](29:10) God wyll geue strength vnto his people: God wyll blesse his people in peace
