Psalms 61

1 For the end, amongst the Hymns of David. O God, listen to my petition; attend to my prayer.

To the victorie on orgun, to Dauid hym silf. God, here thou my biseching; yyue thou tent to my preyer.

2 From the ends of the earth have I cried to you, when my heart was in trouble: you lifted me up on a rock you did guide me:

Fro the endis of the lond Y criede to thee; the while myn herte was angwischid, thou enhaunsidist me in a stoon.

3 because you were my hope, a tower of strength from the face of the enemy.

Thou laddest me forth, for thou art maad myn hope; a tour of strengthe fro the face of the enemye.

4 I will dwell in your tabernacle for ever; I will shelter myself under the shadow of your wings. (Pause)

I schal dwelle in thi tabernacle in to worldis; Y schal be keuered in the hilyng of thi wengis.

5 For you, o God, have heard my prayers; you have given an inheritance to them that fear your name.

For thou, my God, hast herd my preier; thou hast youe eritage to hem that dreden thi name.

6 You shall add days to the days of the king; [you shall lengthen] his years to all generations.

Thou schalt adde daies on the daies of the king; hise yeeris til in to the dai of generacioun and of generacioun.

7 He shall endure for ever before God: which of them will seek out his mercy and truth?

He dwellith with outen ende in the siyt of God; who schal seke the merci and treuthe of hym?

8 So will I sing to your name for ever and ever, that I may daily perform my vows.

So Y schal seie salm to thi name in to the world of world; that Y yelde my vowis fro dai in to dai.
