Psalms 5

1 For the end, a Psalm of David, concerning her that inherits. Listen to my words, O Lord, attend to my cry.

To the ouercomere on the eritagis, the song of Dauid. Lord, perseyue thou my wordis with eeris; vndurstonde thou my cry.

2 Attend to the voice of my supplication, my King, and my God: for to you, O Lord, will I pray.

Mi kyng, and my God; yyue thou tent to the vois of my preier.

3 In the morning you shall hear my voice: in the morning will I wait upon you, and will look up.

For, Lord, Y schal preie to thee; here thou eerly my vois.

4 For you are not a god that desires iniquity; neither shall the worker of wickedness dwell with you.

Eerli Y schal stonde nyy thee, and Y schal se; for thou art God not willynge wickidnesse.

5 Neither shall the transgressors continue in your sight: you hate, O Lord, all them that work iniquity.

Nethir an yuel willid man schal dwelle bisidis thee; nethir vniust men schulen dwelle bifor thin iyen.

6 You will destroy all that speak falsehood: the Lord abhors the bloody and deceitful man.

Thou hatist alle that worchen wickidnesse; thou schalt leese alle that speken leesyng. The Lord schal holde abhomynable a manquellere, and gileful man.

7 But I will enter into your house in the multitude of your mercy: I will worship in your fear towards your holy temple.

But, Lord, in the multitude of thi merci Y schal entre in to thin hows; Y schal worschipe to thin hooli temple in thi drede.

8 Lead me, O Lord, in your righteousness because of mine enemies; make my way plain before your face.

Lord, lede thou forth me in thi riytfulnesse for myn enemyes; dresse thou my weie in thi siyt.

9 For there is no truth in their mouth; their heart is vain; their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit.

For whi treuthe is not in her mouth; her herte is veyn.

10 Judge them, O God; let them fail of their counsels: cast them out according to the abundance of their ungodliness; for they have provoked you, O Lord.

Her throte is an opyn sepulcre, thei diden gilefuli with her tungis; God, deme thou hem. Falle thei doun fro her thouytis, vp the multitude of her wickidnessis caste thou hem doun; for, Lord, thei han terrid thee to ire.

11 But let all that trust on you be glad in you: they shall exult for ever, and you shall dwell amongst them; and all that love your name shall rejoice in you.

And alle that hopen in thee, be glad; thei schulen make fulli ioye with outen ende, and thou schalt dwelle in hem. And alle that louen thi name schulen haue glorie in thee;

12 For you, Lord, shall bless the righteous: you have compassed us as with a shield of favour.

for thou schalt blesse a iust man. Lord, thou hast corouned vs, as with the scheeld of thi good wille.
