3 God, thou hast put awei vs, and thou
hast distried vs; thou were wrooth, and

7 make thou saaf with thi ri&yogh;t hond `the

9 Galaad

Effraym is the strengthe of myn heed.
10 Juda is my king; Moab is the pot of myn
hope. In to Idumee Y schal stretche forth
my scho; aliens ben maad suget to me.
11 Who schal lede me in to a citee maad

Ydumee?
12 Whether not thou, God, that

heelthe of man is veyn.
14 In God we
schulen make vertu; and he schal bringe
to nou&yogh;t hem that disturblen vs.
