| [1]A Song and Psalm for the sons of Korah. Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness. |
[1]The title of the eiyte and fourtithe salm. To victorie, a salm to the sones of Chore. |
| [2]Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King. |
[2]Alle ye folkis, here these thingis; alle ye that dwellen in the world, perseyue with eeris. |
| [3]God is known in her palaces for a refuge. |
[3]Alle the sones of erthe and the sones of men; togidere the riche man and the pore in to oon. |
| [4]For lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together. |
[4]Mi mouth schal speke wisdom; and the thenkyng of myn herte schal speke prudence. |
| [5]They saw it, and so they wondered; they were troubled, and hasted away. |
[5]I schal bouwe doun myn eere in to a parable; Y schal opene my resoun set forth in a sautree. |
| [6]Fear took hold upon them there, and pain, as of a woman in travail. |
[6]Whi schal Y drede in the yuel dai? the wickidnesse of myn heele schal cumpasse me. |
| [7]Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind. |
[7]Whiche tristen in her owne vertu; and han glorie in the multitude of her richessis. |
| [8]As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah. |
[8]A brother ayenbieth not, schal a man ayenbie? and he schal not yyue to God his plesyng. |
| [9]We have thought of thy loving-kindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple. |
[9]And he schal not yyue the prijs of raunsum of his soule; and he schal trauele with outen ende, |
| [10]According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise to the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness. |
[10]and he schal lyue yit in to the ende. |
| [11]Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments. |
[11]He schal not se perischyng, whanne he schal se wise men diynge; the vnwise man and fool schulen perische togidere. And thei schulen leeue her richessis to aliens; |
| [12]Walk about Zion, and go round her: number her towers. |
[12]and the sepulcris of hem ben the housis of hem with outen ende. The tabernaclis of hem ben in generacioun and generacioun; thei clepiden her names in her londis. |
| [13]Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following. |
[13]A man, whanne he was in honour, vndurstood not; he is comparisound to vnwise beestis, and he is maad lijk to tho. |
| [14]For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even to death. |
[14]This weie of hem is sclaundir to hem; and aftirward thei schulen plese togidere in her mouth. |
