< Psalms 14 >
1 To the choirmaster of David he says a fool in heart his there not [is] a god they act corruptly they do abominably deed[s] there not [is one who] does good.
To the victorie of Dauid. The vnwise man seide in his herte, God is not. Thei ben corrupt, and ben maad abhomynable in her studies; noon is that doith good, noon is til to oon.
2 Yahweh from heaven he looks down on [the] children of humankind to see ¿ [is] there [one who] acts prudently [one who] seeks God.
The Lord bihelde fro heuene on the sones of men; that he se, if ony is vndurstondynge, ethir sekynge God.
3 Everyone he turns aside all together they are corrupt there not [is one who] does good there not also [is] one.
Alle bowiden awei, togidere thei ben maad vnprofitable; noon is that doth good, noon is `til to oon. The throte of hem is an open sepulcre, thei diden gilefuli with her tungis; the venym of snakis is vndur her lippis. Whos mouth is ful of cursyng and bittirnesse; her feet ben swift to schede out blood. Sorewe and cursidnesse is in the weies of hem, and thei knewen not the weie of pees; the drede of God is not bifor her iyen.
4 ¿ Not do they know all [those who] do wickedness [those who] devour people my they eat bread Yahweh not they call on.
Whether alle men that worchen wickidnesse schulen not knowe; that deuowren my puple, as mete of breed?
5 There - they fear a fear for God [is] with a generation righteous.
Thei clepeden not the Lord; thei trembliden there for dreed, where was no drede;
6 [the] plan of [the] poor You will put to shame for Yahweh [is] refuge his.
for the Lord is in a riytful generacioun. Thou hast schent the counsel of a pore man; for the Lord is his hope.
7 Who? will he give [will be] from Zion [the] deliverance of Israel when turns back Yahweh [the] captivity of people his let him rejoice Jacob let him be glad Israel.
Who schal yyue fro Syon helthe to Israel? Whanne the Lord hath turned awei the caitifte of his puple; Jacob schal `fulli be ioiful, and Israel schal be glad.
