| [3]Thou hast foryoue the wickidnesse of thi puple; thou hast hilid alle the synnes of hem. |
[3]Yea, the sparrow hath found her an house, and the swallow a nest for her, where she may lay her young: even by thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King and my God. |

| [10]Netheles his helthe is niy men dredynge him; that glorie dwelle in oure lond. |
[10]For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand other where: I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tabernacles of wickedness. |

[11]For the Lord God is the sun and shield unto us: the Lord will give grace and glory, and no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. |

[12]O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee. |
