[1]The `title of the sixte and seuentithe salm. `To the ouercomere on Yditum, `the salm of Asaph.[2]With my vois Y criede to the Lord; with my vois to God, and he yaf tent to me.[3]In the dai of my tribulacioun Y souyte God with myn hondis; in the nyyt `to fore hym, and Y am not disseyued. Mi soule forsook to be coumfortid;[4]Y was myndeful of God, and Y delitide, and Y was exercisid; and my spirit failide.[5]Myn iyen bifore took wakyngis; Y was disturblid, and Y spak not.[6]I thouyte elde daies; and Y hadde in mynde euerlastinge yeeris.[7]And Y thouyte in the nyyt with myn herte; and Y was exercisid, and Y clensid my spirit.[8]Whether God schal caste awei with outen ende; ether schal he not lei to, that he be more plesid yit?[9]Ethir schal he kitte awei his merci into the ende; fro generacioun in to generacioun?[10]Ethir schal God foryete to do mercy; ethir schal he withholde his mercies in his ire?[11]And Y seide, Now Y bigan; this is the chaunging of the riythond of `the hiye God.[12]I hadde mynde on the werkis of the Lord; for Y schal haue mynde fro the bigynnyng of thi merueilis.
