PSALM XXX. 1   In to the ende, the salm of Dauid, `for the ecces of mynde.

2    noteIn thee, Lord, I hopide; I shal not be confoundid in to withoute ende; in thi ri&yogh;twisnesse deliuere me. 3   Bowe to me thin ere; hee&yogh;e that thou delyuere me. Be thou to me in to God a defendere; and in to an hous of refut, that thou make me saf. 4   For my strengthe and my refut thou art; and for thi name thou shal ful out lede me, and ful out nurshe me. 5   Thou shalt ful out lede me fro this grene, that thei hidden to me; for thou art my defendere. 6   In to thin hondis I take my spirit; thou bo&yogh;tist me, Lord God of treuthe. 7   Thou hatedist aboute waiteris, vanytes ouer veynliche. 8   I forsothe in the Lord hopide; ful out I shal io&yogh;en, and gladen in thi mercy. For thou hast beholde my mecnesse; and sauedest fro nedis my soule. 9   And thou closedest not me in the hondis of the enemy; thou hast sett in large place my feet. 10   Haue mercy of me, Lord, for I am trublid; disturbid is in wrathe myn e&yogh;e, my soule, and my wombe. 11   For in sorewe hath failid my lif; and my &yogh;eris in weilingus. Enfeblid is in porenesse my vertue; and my bones ben disturbid. 12   Ouer alle myn enemys I am maad repref, and to my ne&yogh;hebores gretli; and drede to my knowen. That se&yogh;en me, outfloun fro me; 13   to for&yogh;eting I am &yogh;iue, as a dead man fro herte. I am maad as a vessel lost; 14   for I herde blamyng of manye duellende in enuyroun. In that whyl thei shulde come togidere a&yogh;en me; to take my soule thei counseileden. 15   I forsothe in thee hopide, Lord, I seide, My God thou art; 16   in thin hondys my lottis. Tac me out fro the hondis of myn enemys; and fro men pursuende me. 17   Li&yogh;tne thi face vp on thi seruaunt, mac me saaf

in thi mercy; 18   Lord, I shal not be confoundid, for I inwardli clepide thee. Vnpitous men shame thei, and be thei bro&yogh;t doun in to helle; 19   doumbe be thei made, treccherous lippis. That speken a&yogh;en the ri&yogh;twis wickidnesse; in pride, and in abusioun. 20   Hou gret the multitude of thi swetnesse, Lord; that thou hiddest to men dredende thee. Thou performedist to hem, that hopen in thee; in the si&yogh;te of the sones of men. 21   Thou shalt hide them in the hid place of thi face; fro the disturbing of men. Thou shalt defende them in thi tabernacle; fro the a&yogh;enseiyng of tungis. 22   Blessid the Lord, for he made merueilous his mercy to me; in a strengthid cite. 23   I forsothe seide in exces of my mynde; I am cast aferr fro the face of thin e&yogh;en. Therfore thou ful out herdist the vois of myn orisoun; whil I shulde crie to thee. 24   Looueth the Lord, alle &yogh;ee the seintus of hym; for the Lord shal a&yogh;een seche the treuthe, and &yogh;elde plenteously to men doende pride. 25   Manli doth, and be counfortid &yogh;oure herte; alle &yogh;ee that hope in the Lord.
