PSALM XLIII.
1 In to the ende, to the sones of Chore,
to the vnderstonding.
2 noteGod, with oure eris wee han herd;
oure fadris befor tolden to vs. The werc
that thou wro&yogh;tist in the da&yogh;is of hem;
and in olde da&yogh;is.
3 Thin hond Jentilis
scaterede, and thou formedest hem; thou
tormentidest puplis, and puttist out hem.
4 Ne forsothe in ther swerd thei weldeden
the erthe; and their arm shal not sauen
hem. But thi ri&yogh;thond, and thin arm,
and the li&yogh;ting of thi chere; for holli
thou toke plesaunce in hem.
5 Thou art
he, my king and my God; that sendist
helthis to Jacob.
6 In thee oure enemys
we shul wynewe bi the horn; and in thi
name we shul dispise inriseris in vs.
7 Forsothe in my bowe I shal not hope;
and my swerd shal not saue me.
8 Forsothe
thou sauedist vs fro men tormentende
vs; and the hatende vs thou confoundedest.
9 In God we shul be preisid
al dai; and in thi name we shul knouleche
to thee in to the world.
10 Nou forsothe
thou hast put vs abac, and confoundid
vs; and, God, thou shalt not
gon out in oure vertues.
11 Thou turnedist
vs awei bacward after oure enemys; and
thei, that hatiden vs, dyuersly ca&yogh;ten to
themself.
12 Thou &yogh;eue vs as shep of metis;
and in Jentilis thou scateredist vs.
13 Thou soldist thi puple with oute pris;
and ther was not multitude in the togidere
chaungingus of hem.
14 Thou hast
put vs repref to oure ne&yogh;hebores; vnder
mouwing `and scorn to hem that ben in
oure enuyroun.
15 Thou hast put vs in to
licnesse to Jentilis; mouyng of the hed
in puplis.
16 Al dai my shame is a&yogh;en me;
and the confusioun of my face ouercouerede
me.
17 Fro the vois of repref
puttende, and euele spekende; fro the
-- --
face of the enemy, and the pursuere.
18 Alle these thingus camyn vpon vs; and
wee han not for&yogh;ete thee, and wickeli
wee han not don in thi testament.
19 And
oure herte wente not awei bacward; and
thou bowidist doun oure pathis fro thi
weie.
20 For thou mekedist vs in the place
of tormenting; and ouercouerede vs the
shadewe of deth.
21 If wee han for&yogh;ete the
name of oure God; and if wee han sprad
out oure hondis to an alien God.
22 Whether
God shal not a&yogh;een sechen thes
thingus? he forsothe knew&yogh; the hidde
thingis of the herte. For wee ben mortefied
for thee al dai; wee ben eymed as
shep of sla&yogh;tir.
23 Rys vp, whi al slepist
thou, Lord? ris vp, and putte thou not
abac in to the ende.
24 Whi thi face turnest
thou awei? thou for&yogh;etist of oure
myseise, and of oure tribulacioun.
25 For
mekid in pouder is oure soule; oure
wombe is glued togidere in the erthe.
26 Ris vp, Lord, and help vs; and a&yogh;een
bie vs for thi name.
