[[To him that excelleth.] A Psalm Chapter committed to the sons of Korah.]
[1]The `title of the fyue and eiytetithe salm. The preier of Dauid. Lord, bowe doun thin eere, and here me; for Y am nedi and pore. [1]Lord, thou hast been favorable unto thy land: thou hast brought again the captivity of Jacob.
[2]Kepe thou my lijf, for Y am holi; my God, make thou saaf thi seruaunt hopynge in thee. [2]Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, and covered all their sins. Selah.
[3]Lord, haue thou merci on me, for Y criede al day to thee; [3]Thou hast withdrawn all thine anger, and hast turned back from the fierceness of thy wrath.
[4]make thou glad the soule of thi seruaunt, for whi, Lord, Y haue reisid my soule to thee. [4]Turn us, O God of our salvation, and release thine anger toward us.
[5]For thou, Lord, art swete and mylde; and of myche merci to alle men inwardli clepynge thee. [5]Wilt thou be angry with us forever? And wilt thou prolong thy wrath from one generation to another?
[6]Lord, perseyue thou my preier with eeris; and yyue thou tente to the vois of my bisechyng. [6]Wilt thou not turn again and quicken us, that thy people may rejoice in thee?
[7]In the dai of my tribulacioun Y criede to thee; for thou herdist me. [7]Show us thy mercy, O Lord, and grant us thy salvation.
[8]Lord, noon among goddis is lijk thee; and noon is euene to thi werkis. [8]I will hearken what the Lord God will say: for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his Saints, that they turn not again to folly.
[9]Lord, alle folkis, whiche euere thou madist, schulen come, and worschipe bifore thee; and thei schulen glorifie thi name. [9]Surely his salvation is near to them that fear him, that glory may dwell in our land.
[10]For thou art ful greet, and makinge merueils; thou art God aloone. [10]Mercy and truth shall meet: righteousness and peace shall kiss one another.
[11]Lord, lede thou me forth in thi weie, and Y schal entre in thi treuthe; myn herte be glad, that it drede thi name. [11]Truth shall bud out of the earth, and righteousness shall look down from heaven.
[12]Mi Lord God, Y schal knouleche to thee in al myn herte; and Y schal glorifie thi name withouten ende. [12]Yea, the Lord shall give good things, and our land shall give her increase.
[13]For thi merci is greet on me; and thou deliueridist my soule fro the lower helle. [13]Righteousness shall go before him, and shall set her steps in the way.
