PSALM XXXVIII.
1 In to the ende, `the song of Dauid, for
Yditym.
2 noteI seide, I shal kepe my weies; that I
gilte not in my tunge. I putte to my
mouth warde; whan the synnere shulde
stonde a&yogh;en me.
3 I becam doumb, and
am mekid, and heeld my pes fro goodis;
and my sorewe is renewid.
4 Myn herte
wex al hot with inne me; and in my
swete thenking ful out shal brenne fir.
5 I spac in my tunge; Lord, mac knowen
to me myn ende. And the noumbre of
my da&yogh;es, what it is; that I wite what
failith to me.
6 Lo! mesurable thou hast
-- --
put my da&yogh;es; and my substaunce as
no&yogh;t befor thee. Neuerthelatere al vanyte;
eche man liuende.
7 Neuerthelatere in
ymage passeth a man; but in veyn he
is al disturbid. He tresoreth; and vnknowith,
to whom he shal gedere tho
thingus.
8 And now what is myn abiding?
whether not the Lord? and my substaunce
anent thee is.
9 Fro alle my
wickidnessis pul me awei; reprof to
the vnwise man thou hast &yogh;iue me.
10 I
becam doumb, and openede not my
mouth, for thou didist;
11 moue awei fro
me thi scourgis.
12 Fro the strengthe of
thin hond I failide in blamyngus; for
wickednesse thou chastisidest a man.
Thou madest to flowen awei as an ireyne
his soule; nerthelatere veynli is disturbid
eche man.
13 Ful out here myn
orisoun, Lord, and my lowe pre&yogh;ing;
with eris perceyue my teris.
14 Ne be
thou stille, for a comeling I am anent
thee; and a pilgrim as alle my fadris.
15 For&yogh;if to me, that I be refreshed, befor
that I go awei; and I shal be no more.
