اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 36

١ 1 لِإِمَامِ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. لِعَبْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ دَاوُدَ نَأْمَةُ مَعْصِيَةِ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ فِي دَاخِلِ قَلْبِي أَنْ لَيْسَ خَوْفُ ٱللهِ أَمَامَ عَيْنَيْهِ.

`To victorie, to Dauid, `the seruaunt of the Lord. The vniust man seide, that he trespasse in hym silf; the drede of God is not bifor hise iyen.

٢ 2 لِأَنَّهُ مَلَّقَ نَفْسَهُ لِنَفْسِهِ مِنْ جِهَةِ وِجْدَانِ إِثْمِهِ وَبُغْضِهِلإ.

For he dide gilefuli in the siyt of God; that his wickidnesse be foundun to hatrede.

٣ 3 كَلَامُ فَمِهِ إِثْمٌ وَغِشٌّ. كَفَّ عَنِ ٱلتَّعَقُّلِ، عَنْ عَمَلِ ٱلْخَيْرِ.

The wordis of his mouth ben wickidnesse and gile, he nolde vndirstonde to do wel.

٤ 4 يَتَفَكَّرُ بِٱلْإِثْمِ عَلَى مَضْجَعِهِ. يَقِفُ فِي طَرِيقٍ غَيْرِ صَالِحٍ. لَا يَرْفُضُ ٱلشَّرَّ.

He thouyte wickidnesse in his bed, he stood nyy al weie not good; forsothe he hatide not malice.

٥ 5 يَارَبُّ، فِي ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ رَحْمَتُكَ. أَمَانَتُكَ إِلَى ٱلْغَمَامِ.

Lord, thi merci is in heuene; and thi treuthe is `til to cloudis.

٦ 6 عَدْلُكَ مِثْلُ جِبَالِ ٱللهِ، وَأَحْكَامُكَ لُجَّةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ. ٱلنَّاسَ وَٱلْبَهَائِمَ تُخَلِّصُ يَارَبُّ.

Thi riytfulnesse is as the hillis of God; thi domes ben myche depthe of watris. Lord, thou schalt saue men and beestis;

٧ 7 مَا أَكْرَمَ رَحْمَتَكَ يَا ٱللهُ! فَبَنُو ٱلْبَشَرِ فِي ظِلِّ جَنَاحَيْكَ يَحْتَمُونَ.

as thou, God, hast multiplied thi merci. But the sones of men; schulen hope in the hilyng of thi wyngis.

٨ 8 يَرْوَوْنَ مِنْ دَسَمِ بَيْتِكَ، وَمِنْ نَهْرِ نِعَمِكَ تَسْقِيهِمْ.

Thei schulen be fillid gretli of the plentee of thin hows; and thou schalt yyue drynke to hem with the steef streem of thi likyng.

٩ 9 لِأَنَّ عِنْدَكَ يَنْبُوعَ ٱلْحَيَاةِ. بِنُورِكَ نَرَى نُورًا.

For the wel of life is at thee; and in thi liyt we schulen se liyt.

١٠ 10 أَدِمْ رَحْمَتَكَ لِلَّذِينَ يَعْرِفُونَكَ، وَعَدْلَكَ لِلْمُسْتَقِيمِي ٱلْقَلْبِ.

Lord, sette forth thi mercy to hem, that knowen thee; and thi ryytfulnesse to hem that ben of riytful herte.

١١ 11 لَا تَأْتِنِي رِجْلُ ٱلْكِبْرِيَاءِ، وَيَدُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ لَا تُزَحْزِحْنِي.

The foot of pryde come not to me; and the hond of the synnere moue me not.

١٢ 12 هُنَاكَ سَقَطَ فَاعِلُو ٱلْإِثْمِ. دُحِرُوا فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِيعُوا ٱلْقِيَامَ.

There thei felden doun, that worchen wickidnesse; thei ben cast out, and myyten not stonde.
