[1]The title of the thrittithe salm. To victorie, the salm of Dauid. [1]A PsalmH4210 and SongH7892 at the dedicationH2598 of the houseH1004 of DavidH1732. I will extolH7311[H8787] thee, O LORDH3068; for thou hast lifted me upH1802[H8765], and hast not made my foesH341[H8802] to rejoiceH8055 over meH8765.
[2]Lord, Y hopide in thee, be Y not schent with outen ende; delyuere thou me in thi riytfulnesse. [2]O LORDH3068 my GodH430, I criedH7768[H8765] unto thee, and thou hast healedH7495 meH8799.
[3]Bouwe doun thin eere to me; haaste thou to delyuere me. Be thou to me in to God defendere, and in to an hows of refuyt; that thou make me saaf. [3]O LORDH3068, thou hast brought upH5927[H8689] my soulH5315 from the graveH7585: thou hast kept me aliveH2421[H8765], that I should not go downH3381[H8800][H8675][H3381][H8802] to the pitH953.
[4]For thou art my strengthe and my refuyt; and for thi name thou schalt lede me forth, and schalt nurische me. [4]SingH2167[H8761] unto the LORDH3068, O ye saintsH2623 of his, and give thanksH3034[H8685] at the remembranceH2143 of his holinessH6944.
[5]Thou schalt lede me out of the snare, which thei hidden to me; for thou art my defendere. [5]For his angerH639 endureth but a momentH7281; in his favourH7522 is lifeH2416: weepingH1065 may endureH3885[H8799] for a nightH6153, but joyH7440 cometh in the morningH1242.
[6]I bitake my spirit in to thin hondis; Lord God of treuthe, thou hast ayen bouyt me. [6]And in my prosperityH7959 I saidH559[H8804], I shall neverH5769 be movedH4131.[H8735]
[7]Thou hatist hem that kepen vanytees superfluli. [7]LORDH3068, by thy favourH7522 thou hast made my mountainH2042 to standH5975[H8689] strongH5797: thou didst hideH5641[H8689] thy faceH6440, and I was troubledH926.[H8737]
[8]Forsothe Y hopide in the Lord; Y schal haue fulli ioie, and schal be glad in thi merci. For thou byheldist my mekenesse; thou sauedist my lijf fro nedis. [8]I criedH7121[H8799] to thee, O LORDH3068; and unto the LORDH3068 I made supplicationH2603.[H8691]
[9]And thou closidist not me togidere withynne the hondis of the enemy; thou hast sett my feet in a large place. [9]What profitH1215 is there in my bloodH1818, when I go downH3381[H8800] to the pitH7845? Shall the dustH6083 praiseH3034[H8686] thee? shall it declareH5046[H8686] thy truthH571?
[10]Lord, haue thou merci on me, for Y am troblid; myn iye is troblid in ire, my soule and my wombe `ben troblid. [10]HearH8085[H8798], O LORDH3068, and have mercyH2603[H8798] upon me: LORDH3068, be thou my helperH5826.[H8802]
[11]For whi my lijf failide in sorewe; and my yeeris in weilynges. Mi vertu is maad feble in pouert; and my boonys ben disturblid. [11]Thou hast turnedH2015[H8804] for me my mourningH4553 into dancingH4234: thou hast put offH6605[H8765] my sackclothH8242, and girdedH247[H8762] me with gladnessH8057;
[12]Ouer alle myn enemyes Y am maad schenship greetli to my neiyboris; and drede to my knowun. Thei that sien me with outforth, fledden fro me; Y am youun to foryetyng, [12]To the end that my gloryH3519 may singH2167[H8762] praise to thee, and not be silentH1826[H8799]. O LORDH3068 my GodH430, I will give thanksH3034[H8686] unto thee for everH5769.
