Psalms 2
1 Whi gnastiden with teeth hethene men; and puplis thouyten veyn thingis?
psalmus David quare fremuerunt gentes et populi meditati sunt inania adstiterunt reges terrae et principes convenerunt in unum adversus Dominum et adversus christum eius diapsalma
2 The kyngis of erthe stoden togidere; and princes camen togidere ayens the Lord, and ayens his Crist?
disrumpamus vincula eorum et proiciamus a nobis iugum ipsorum
3 Breke we the bondis of hem; and cast we awei the yok of hem fro vs.
qui habitat in caelis inridebit eos et Dominus subsannabit eos
4 He that dwellith in heuenes schal scorne hem; and the Lord schal bimowe hem.
tunc loquetur ad eos in ira sua et in furore suo conturbabit eos
5 Thanne he schal speke to hem in his ire; and he schal disturble hem in his stronge veniaunce.
ego autem constitutus sum rex ab eo super Sion montem sanctum eius praedicans praeceptum eius
6 Forsothe Y am maad of hym a kyng on Syon, his hooli hil; prechynge his comaundement.
Dominus dixit ad me filius meus es tu ego hodie genui te
7 The Lord seide to me, Thou art my sone; Y haue gendrid thee to dai.
postula a me et dabo tibi gentes hereditatem tuam et possessionem tuam terminos terrae
8 Axe thou of me, and Y schal yyue to thee hethene men thin eritage; and thi possessioun the termes of erthe.
reges eos in virga ferrea tamquam vas figuli confringes eos
9 Thou schalt gouerne hem in an yrun yerde; and thou schalt breke hem as the vessel of a pottere.
et nunc reges intellegite erudimini qui iudicatis terram
10 And now, ye kyngis, vndurstonde; ye that demen the erthe, be lerud.
servite Domino in timore et exultate ei in tremore
11 Serue ye the Lord with drede; and make ye ful ioye to hym with tremblyng.
adprehendite disciplinam nequando irascatur Dominus et pereatis de via iusta
12 Take ye lore; lest the Lord be wrooth sumtyme, and lest ye perischen fro iust waie. Whanne his `ire brenneth out in schort tyme; blessed ben alle thei, that tristen in hym.
cum exarserit in brevi ira eius beati omnes qui confidunt in eo
