詩篇 21

1 【頌賜勝利的天主】 達味詩歌，交與樂官。 上主，君王因你的威能而欣喜，因你的救助狂歡而快樂無比。

To victorie, the salm of Dauid. Lord, the kyng schal be glad in thi vertu; and he schal ful out haue ioye greetli on thin helthe.

2 你滿全了他心中的渴想，沒有拒絕他口中的盼望。

Thou hast youe to hym the desire of his herte; and thou hast not defraudid hym of the wille of hise lippis.

3 因為你已賜給了他卓越的福寵，以純金的冠冕加在他的頭頂；

For thou hast bifor come hym in the blessyngis of swetnesse; thou hast set on his heed a coroun of preciouse stoon.

4 他雖只向你乞求確保性命，你卻賜給他萬世無疆的長生。

He axide of thee lijf, and thou yauest to hym; the lengthe of daies in to the world, `and in to the world of world.

5 你協助他獲得偉大的光榮，你加給他無比的榮耀與尊崇；

His glorie is greet in thin helthe; thou schalt putte glorie, and greet fayrnesse on hym.

6 你使他成為萬世的福源，使他在你面前踴躍喜歡。

For thou schalt yyue hym in to blessing in to the world of world; thou schalt make hym glad in ioye with thi cheer.

7 君王既已全心對上主信賴，憑至高者的慈愛不再移改。

For the kyng hopith in the Lord; and in the merci of the hiyeste he schal not be moued.

8 願你的手將你的一切仇敵搜羅，願你的右手將憎恨你的人捕捉！

Thyn hond be foundun to alle thin enemyes; thi riythond fynde alle hem that haten thee.

9 當你顥示你尊容的時候，處置他們有如放在火爐；願上主以震怒消滅他們，讓火焰也盡情吞滅他們！

Thou schalt putte hem as a furneis of fier in the tyme of thi cheer; the Lord schal disturble hem in his ire, and fier schal deuoure hem.

10 願你從地上滅盡他們的子女，使他們的後裔全絕跡於人世！

Thou schalt leese the fruyt of hem fro erthe; and `thou schalt leese the seed of hem fro the sones of men.

11 他們雖為陷害你而設計，策畫的陰謀卻無濟於事；

For thei bowiden yuels ayens thee; thei thouyten counseils, whiche thei myyten not stablische.

12 因為你朝他們張弓搭箭，已使他們嚇得轉身逃竄。

For thou schalt putte hem abac; in thi relifs thou schalt make redi the cheer of hem.

13 上主，請起來，顯示你的英勇，讓我們歌頌稱揚你的威能。

Lord, be thou enhaunsid in thi vertu; we schulen synge, and seie opinly thi vertues.
