PSALM CXLVI.
1 Alleluia.
notePreiseth the Lord, for good is a salm;

2 The Lord bildende vp Jerusalem; the
scateringis of Jerusalem shal gadere togidere.
3 That helith the contrit in herte;
and bindeth the contriciouns of hem.
4 That noumbreth the multitude of sterris;
and to them alle clepeth names.
5 Gret

and of his wisdam is not noumbre.
6 Vndertakende
debonere men the Lord; mekende
forsothe synneres vn to the erthe.
7 Singeth beforn to the Lord in confessioun;
doth salm to oure God in harpe.
8 That

9 That &yogh;yueth to bestis the mete

10 He shal not han wil in

a man shall be wel plesid to hym.
11 Wel
plesid thing is to the Lord vpon men
dredende hym; and in hem that hopen
