1 A PRAYER OF DAVID. Incline, O YHWH, Your ear, Answer me, for I [am] poor and needy.

The preier of Dauid. Lord, bowe doun thin eere, and here me; for Y am nedi and pore.

2 Keep my soul, for I [am] pious, Save Your servant who is trusting to You, O You, my God.

Kepe thou my lijf, for Y am holi; my God, make thou saaf thi seruaunt hopynge in thee.

3 Favor me, O Lord, for I call to You all the day.

Lord, haue thou merci on me, for Y criede al day to thee;

4 Make glad the soul of Your servant, For to You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.

make thou glad the soule of thi seruaunt, for whi, Lord, Y haue reisid my soule to thee.

5 For You, Lord, [are] good and forgiving, And abundant in kindness to all calling You.

For thou, Lord, art swete and mylde; and of myche merci to alle men inwardli clepynge thee.

6 Hear, O YHWH, my prayer, And attend to the voice of my supplications.

Lord, perseyue thou my preier with eeris; and yyue thou tente to the vois of my bisechyng.

7 In a day of my distress I call You, For You answer me.

In the dai of my tribulacioun Y criede to thee; for thou herdist me.

8 There is none like You among the gods, O Lord, And like Your works there are none.

Lord, noon among goddis is lijk thee; and noon is euene to thi werkis.

9 All nations that You have made Come and bow themselves before You, O Lord, And give honor to Your Name.

Lord, alle folkis, whiche euere thou madist, schulen come, and worschipe bifore thee; and thei schulen glorifie thi name.

10 For You [are] great, and doing wonders, You [are] God alone.

For thou art ful greet, and makinge merueils; thou art God aloone.

11 Show me, O YHWH, Your way, I walk in Your truth, My heart rejoices to fear Your Name.

Lord, lede thou me forth in thi weie, and Y schal entre in thi treuthe; myn herte be glad, that it drede thi name.

12 I confess You, O Lord my God, with all my heart, And I honor Your Name for all time.

Mi Lord God, Y schal knouleche to thee in al myn herte; and Y schal glorifie thi name withouten ende.

13 For Your kindness [is] great toward me, And You have delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol. (Sheol h7585)

For thi merci is greet on me; and thou deliueridist my soule fro the lower helle. (Sheol h7585)

14 O God, the proud have risen up against me, And a company of the terrible sought my soul, And have not placed You before them,

God, wickid men han rise vp on me; and the synagoge of myyti men han souyt my lijf; and thei han not set forth thee in her siyt.

15 And You, O Lord, [are] God, merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abundant in kindness and truth.

And thou, Lord God, doynge merci, and merciful; pacient, and of myche merci, and sothefast.

16 Look to me, and favor me, Give Your strength to Your servant, And give salvation to a son of Your handmaid.

Biholde on me, and haue mercy on me, yyue thou the empire to thi child; and make thou saaf the sone of thin handmayden.

17 Do with me a sign for good, And those hating me see and are ashamed, For You, O YHWH, have helped me, Indeed, You have comforted me!

Make thou with me a signe in good, that thei se, that haten me, and be aschamed; for thou, Lord, hast helpid me, and hast coumfortid me.
