[1]PraiseH1984[H8761] ye the LORDH3050. PraiseH1984[H8761] the LORDH3068, O my soulH5315. |
| [2]The Lord schal bilde Jerusalem; and schal gadere togidere the scateryngis of Israel. |
[2]While I liveH2416 will I praiseH1984[H8762] the LORDH3068: I will sing praisesH2167[H8762] unto my God while I have any beingH430. |

[3]Put not your trustH982[H8799] in princesH5081, nor in the sonH1121 of manH120, in whom there is no helpH8668. |
| [4]Which noumbrith the multitude of sterris; and clepith names to alle tho. |
[4]His breathH7307 goeth forthH3318[H8799], he returnethH7725[H8799] to his earthH127; in that very dayH3117 his thoughtsH6250 perishH6.[H8804] |
| [5]Oure Lord is greet, and his vertu is greet; and of his wisdom is no noumbre. |
[5]HappyH835 is he that hath the GodH410 of JacobH3290 for his helpH5828, whose hopeH7664 is in the LORDH3068 his GodH430: |
| [6]The Lord takith vp mylde men; forsothe he makith low synneris `til to the erthe. |
[6]Which madeH6213[H8802] heavenH8064, and earthH776, the seaH3220, and all that therein is: which keepethH8104[H8802] truthH571 for everH5769: |
| [7]Bifore synge ye to the Lord in knoulechyng; seye ye salm to oure God in an harpe. |
[7]Which executethH6213[H8802] judgmentH4941 for the oppressedH6231[H8803]: which givethH5414[H8802] foodH3899 to the hungryH7457. The LORDH3068 loosethH5425[H8688] the prisonersH631:[H8803] |
| [8]Which hilith heuene with cloudis; and makith redi reyn to the erthe. Which bryngith forth hei in hillis; and eerbe to the seruice of men. |
[8]The LORDH3068 openethH6491[H8802] the eyes of the blindH5787: the LORDH3068 raisethH2210[H8802] them that are bowed downH3721[H8803]: the LORDH3068 lovethH157[H8802] the righteousH6662: |
| [9]Which yyueth mete to her werk beestis; and to the briddys of crowis clepinge hym. |
[9]The LORDH3068 preservethH8104[H8802] the strangersH1616; he relievethH5749[H8766] the fatherlessH3490 and widowH490: but the wayH1870 of the wickedH7563 he turneth upside downH5791.[H8762] |
| [10]He schal not haue wille in the strengthe of an hors; nether it schal be wel plesaunt to hym in the leggis of a man. |
[10]The LORDH3068 shall reignH4427[H8799] for everH5769, even thy GodH430, O ZionH6726, unto allH1755 generationsH1755. PraiseH1984[H8761] ye the LORDH3050. |
