[1]The title of the thre and thrittithe salm. To Dauid, whanne he chaungide his mouth bifor Abymalech, and he `droof out Dauid, `and he yede forth. [1]RejoiceH7442[H8761] in the LORDH3068, O ye righteousH6662: for praiseH8416 is comelyH5000 for the uprightH3477.
[2]I schal blesse the Lord in al tyme; euere his heriyng is in my mouth. [2]PraiseH3034[H8685] the LORDH3068 with harpH3658: singH2167[H8761] unto him with the psalteryH5035 and an instrument of ten stringsH6218.
[3]Mi soule schal be preisid in the Lord; mylde men here, and be glad. [3]SingH7891[H8798] unto him a newH2319 songH7892; playH5059[H8763] skilfullyH3190[H8685] with a loud noiseH8643.
[4]Magnyfie ye the Lord with me; and enhaunse we his name into it silf. [4]For the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 is rightH3477; and all his worksH4639 are done in truthH530.
[5]I souyte the Lord, and he herde me; and he delyueride me fro alle my tribulaciouns. [5]He lovethH157[H8802] righteousnessH6666 and judgmentH4941: the earthH776 is fullH4390[H8804] of the goodnessH2617 of the LORDH3068.
[6]Neiye ye to him, and be ye liytned; and youre faces schulen not be schent. [6]By the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 were the heavensH8064 madeH6213[H8738]; and all the hostH6635 of them by the breathH7307 of his mouthH6310.
[7]This pore man criede, and the Lord herde hym; and sauyde hym fro alle hise tribulaciouns. [7]He gatherethH3664[H8802] the watersH4325 of the seaH3220 together as an heapH5067: he layeth upH5414[H8802] the depthH8415 in storehousesH214.
[8]The aungel of the Lord sendith in the cumpas of men dredynge hym; and he schal delyuere hem. [8]Let all the earthH776 fearH3372[H8799] the LORDH3068: let all the inhabitantsH3427[H8802] of the worldH8398 stand in aweH1481 of himH8799.
[9]Taaste ye, and se, for the Lord is swete; blessid is the man, that hopith in hym. [9]For he spakeH559[H8804], and it was done; he commandedH6680[H8765], and it stood fastH5975.[H8799]
[10]Alle ye hooli men of the Lord, drede hym; for no nedynesse is to men dredynge hym. [10]The LORDH3068 bringethH6331 the counselH6098 of the heathenH1471 to noughtH6331[H8689]: he makethH5106 the devicesH4284 of the peopleH5971 of none effectH5106.[H8689]
[11]Riche men weren nedi, and weren hungri; but men that seken the Lord schulen not faile of al good. [11]The counselH6098 of the LORDH3068 standethH5975[H8799] for everH5769, the thoughtsH4284 of his heartH3820 to allH1755 generationsH1755.
[12]Come, ye sones, here ye me; Y schal teche you the drede of the Lord. [12]BlessedH835 is the nationH1471 whose GodH430 is the LORDH3068; and the peopleH5971 whom he hath chosenH977[H8804] for his own inheritanceH5159.
[13]Who is a man, that wole lijf; loueth to se good daies? [13]The LORDH3068 lookethH5027[H8689] from heavenH8064; he beholdethH7200[H8804] all the sonsH1121 of menH120.
[14]Forbede thi tunge fro yuel; and thi lippis speke not gile. [14]From the placeH4349 of his habitationH3427[H8800] he lookethH7688[H8689] upon all the inhabitantsH3427[H8802] of the earthH776.
[15]Turne thou awei fro yuel, and do good; seke thou pees, and perfitli sue thou it. [15]He fashionethH3335[H8802] their heartsH3820 alikeH3162; he considerethH995[H8688] all their worksH4639.
[16]The iyen of the Lord ben on iust men; and hise eeren ben to her preiers. [16]There is no kingH4428 savedH3467[H8737] by the multitudeH7230 of an hostH2428: a mighty manH1368 is not deliveredH5337[H8735] by muchH7230 strengthH3581.
[17]But the cheer of the Lord is on men doynge yuels; that he leese the mynde of hem fro erthe. [17]An horseH5483 is a vain thingH8267 for safetyH8668: neither shall he deliverH4422[H8762] any by his greatH7230 strengthH2428.
[18]Just men cryeden, and the Lord herde hem; and delyueride hem fro alle her tribulaciouns. [18]Behold, the eyeH5869 of the LORDH3068 is upon them that fearH3373 him, upon them that hopeH3176[H8764] in his mercyH2617;
[19]The Lord is nyy hem that ben of troblid herte; and he schal saue meke men in spirit. [19]To deliverH5337[H8687] their soulH5315 from deathH4194, and to keep them aliveH2421[H8763] in famineH7458.
[20]Many tribulaciouns ben of iust men; and the Lord schal delyuere hem fro alle these. [20]Our soulH5315 waitethH2442[H8765] for the LORDH3068: he is our helpH5828 and our shieldH4043.
[21]The Lord kepith alle the boonys of hem; oon of tho schal not be brokun. [21]For our heartH3820 shall rejoiceH8055[H8799] in him, because we have trustedH982[H8804] in his holyH6944 nameH8034.
[22]The deth of synneris is werst; and thei that haten a iust man schulen trespasse. [22]Let thy mercyH2617, O LORDH3068, be upon us, according as we hopeH3176 in theeH8765.
