1 Alleluya. Synge ye to the Lord a newe song; hise heriyng be in the chirche of seyntis.

Praise Adonai! Sing to Adonai a new song, his tehilah ·praise song· in the assembly of the saints.

2 Israel be glad in hym that made hym; and the douytris of Syon make ful out ioye in her king.

Let Israel [God prevails] rejoice in him who made them. Let the children of Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking] be joyful in their King.

3 Herie thei his name in a queer; seie thei salm to hym in a tympan, and sautre.

Let them praise his name in the dance! Let them sing zahmar ·musical praise· to him with tambourine and harp!

4 For the Lord is wel plesid in his puple; and he hath reisid mylde men in to heelthe.

5 Seyntis schulen make ful out ioye in glorie; thei schulen be glad in her beddis.

7 To do veniaunce in naciouns; blamyngis in puplis.

To execute vengeance on the nations, and punishments on the peoples;

8 To bynde the kyngis of hem in stockis; and the noble men of hem in yrun manaclis.

To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;

9 That thei make in hem doom writun; this is glorye to alle hise seyntis.

to execute on them the written judgment. All his saints have this honor. Halleluyah ·praise Yah·!
