1 Alleluya. Lord, Y schal knouleche to thee in al myn herte; in the counsel and congregacioun of iust men.

Praise YAH! [ALEPH-BET] I thank YHWH with the whole heart, In the secret meeting of the upright, And of the congregation.

Great [are] the works of YHWH, Sought out by all desiring them.

3 His werk is knoulechyng and grete doyng; and his riytfulnesse dwellith in to the world of world.

Splendid and majestic is His work, And His righteousness is standing forever.

4 The Lord merciful in wille, and a merciful doere, hath maad a mynde of hise merueilis;

He has made a memorial of His wonders, YHWH [is] gracious and merciful.
