[1]The title of the eiyte and fourtithe salm. To victorie, a salm to the sones of Chore. [1]A SongH7892 and PsalmH4210 for the sonsH1121 of KorahH7141. GreatH1419 is the LORDH3068, and greatlyH3966 to be praisedH1984[H8794] in the cityH5892 of our GodH430, in the mountainH2022 of his holinessH6944.
[2]Alle ye folkis, here these thingis; alle ye that dwellen in the world, perseyue with eeris. [2]BeautifulH3303 for situationH5131, the joyH4885 of the whole earthH776, is mountH2022 ZionH6726, on the sidesH3411 of the northH6828, the cityH7151 of the greatH7227 KingH4428.
[3]Alle the sones of erthe and the sones of men; togidere the riche man and the pore in to oon. [3]GodH430 is knownH3045[H8738] in her palacesH759 for a refugeH4869.
[4]Mi mouth schal speke wisdom; and the thenkyng of myn herte schal speke prudence. [4]For, lo, the kingsH4428 were assembledH3259[H8738], they passed byH5674[H8804] togetherH3162.
[5]I schal bouwe doun myn eere in to a parable; Y schal opene my resoun set forth in a sautree. [5]They sawH7200[H8804] it, and so they marvelledH8539[H8804]; they were troubledH926[H8738], and hasted awayH2648.[H8738]
[6]Whi schal Y drede in the yuel dai? the wickidnesse of myn heele schal cumpasse me. [6]FearH7461 took holdH270[H8804] upon them there, and painH2427, as of a woman in travailH3205.[H8802]
[7]Whiche tristen in her owne vertu; and han glorie in the multitude of her richessis. [7]Thou breakestH7665[H8762] the shipsH591 of TarshishH8659 with an eastH6921 windH7307.
[8]A brother ayenbieth not, schal a man ayenbie? and he schal not yyue to God his plesyng. [8]As we have heardH8085[H8804], so have we seenH7200[H8804] in the cityH5892 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, in the cityH5892 of our GodH430: GodH430 will establishH3559[H8787] it forH5704 everH5769. SelahH5542.
[9]And he schal not yyue the prijs of raunsum of his soule; and he schal trauele with outen ende, [9]We have thoughtH1819[H8765] of thy lovingkindnessH2617, O GodH430, in the midstH7130 of thy templeH1964.
[10]and he schal lyue yit in to the ende. [10]According to thy nameH8034, O GodH430, so is thy praiseH8416 unto the endsH7099 of the earthH776: thy right handH3225 is fullH4390[H8804] of righteousnessH6664.
[11]He schal not se perischyng, whanne he schal se wise men diynge; the vnwise man and fool schulen perische togidere. And thei schulen leeue her richessis to aliens; [11]Let mountH2022 ZionH6726 rejoiceH8055[H8799], let the daughtersH1323 of JudahH3063 be gladH1523[H8799], because of thy judgmentsH4941.
[12]and the sepulcris of hem ben the housis of hem with outen ende. The tabernaclis of hem ben in generacioun and generacioun; thei clepiden her names in her londis. [12]Walk aboutH5437[H8798] ZionH6726, and go round aboutH5362[H8685] her: tellH5608[H8798] the towers thereofH4026.
[13]A man, whanne he was in honour, vndurstood not; he is comparisound to vnwise beestis, and he is maad lijk to tho. [13]MarkH7896[H8798] ye wellH3820 her bulwarksH2430, considerH6448[H8761] her palacesH759; that ye may tellH5608[H8762] it to the generationH1755 followingH314.
[14]This weie of hem is sclaundir to hem; and aftirward thei schulen plese togidere in her mouth. [14]For this GodH430 is our GodH430 for everH5769 and everH5703: he will be our guideH5090[H8762] even unto deathH4192.
