PSALM XL.
1 In to the ende, the salm `of Dauid; or,
in to the ende, the vnderstonding of
Dauid.
2 noteBlisful that vnderstant vp on the
nedi and pore; in the euele dai shal delyueren
-- --
hym the Lord.
3 The Lord kepe
hym, and quykene hym, and blisful make
hym in the erthe; and take hym not `in
to the soule of his enemys.
4 The Lord
helpe bere to hym vp on the bed of his
sorewe; al his bedding thou turnedest in
his sicnesse.
5 I seide, Lord, haue mercy
of me; hele my soule, for I synnede to
thee.
6 Myn enemys seiden euelis to me;
Whanne shal dien, and pershen his name?
7 And if he wente in that he see, veyne
thingus he spac; his herte shal gedere
wickidnessis to hym.
8 He wente forth
outward; and spac in to itself. A&yogh;en
me priueli grucchiden alle myn enemys;
a&yogh;en me thei tho&yogh;ten euelis to me.
9 A
wicke woord thei setteden a&yogh;en me;
Whether he that slepeth, shal not kaste
to, that he ryse a&yogh;een?
10 Forsothe the
man of my pes, in whom I hopide; that
eet my loues, magnefied vp on me supplaunting.
11 Thou forsothe, Lord, haue
mercy of me; and a&yogh;een rere me, and I
shal &yogh;elde to them.
12 In that I knew,
that thou woldist me; for ther shal not
io&yogh;e myn enemy ouer me.
13 Me forsothe
for innocence thou hast vndertaken; and
confermedist me in thi si&yogh;te in to withoute
ende.
14 Blessid the Lord God of
Irael; fro the world, and in to the world,
be it do, be it do.
