Psalms 48
1 The song of salm, of the sones of Chore. The Lord is greet, and worthi to be preisid ful myche; in the citee of oure God, in the hooli hil of hym.
canticum psalmi filiis Core secunda sabbati magnus Dominus et laudabilis nimis in civitate Dei nostri in monte sancto eius
2 It is foundid in the ful out ioiyng of al erthe; the hil of Syon; the sidis of the north, the citee of the greet kyng.
fundatur exultatione universae terrae montes Sion latera aquilonis civitas regis magni
3 God schal be knowun in the housis therof; whanne he schal take it.
Deus in domibus eius cognoscitur cum suscipiet eam
4 For lo! the kyngis of erthe weren gaderid togidere; thei camen into o place.
quoniam ecce reges congregati sunt convenerunt in unum
5 Thei seynge so wondriden; thei weren disturblid, thei weren mouyd togidere, tremblyng took hem.
ipsi videntes sic admirati sunt conturbati sunt commoti sunt
6 There sorewis as of a womman trauelynge of child;
tremor adprehendit eos ibi dolores ut parturientis
7 in a greet spirit thou schalt al to-breke the schippis of Tharsis.
in spiritu vehementi conteres naves Tharsis
8 As we herden, so we sien, in the citee of the Lord of vertues, in the citee of oure God; God hath foundid that citee with outen ende.
sicut audivimus sic vidimus in civitate Domini virtutum in civitate Dei nostri Deus fundavit eam in aeternum diapsalma
9 God, we han resseyued thi mercy; in the myddis of thi temple.
suscepimus Deus misericordiam tuam in medio templi tui
10 Aftir thi name, God, so thin heriyng is spred abrood in to the endis of erthe; thi riyt hond is ful of riytfulnesse.
secundum nomen tuum Deus sic et laus tua in fines terrae iustitia plena est dextera tua
11 The hil of Sion be glad, and the douytris of Judee be fulli ioiful; for thi domes, Lord.
laetetur mons Sion exultent filiae Iudaeae propter iudicia tua Domine
12 Cumpasse ye Syon, and biclippe ye it; telle ye in the touris therof.
circumdate Sion et conplectimini eam narrate in turribus eius
13 Sette ye youre hertis in the vertu of him; and departe ye the housis of hym, that ye telle out in an other generacioun.
ponite corda vestra in virtute eius et distribuite domus eius ut enarretis in progeniem alteram
14 For this is God, oure God, in to withouten ende, and in to the world of world; he schal gouerne vs in to worldis.
quoniam hic est Deus Deus noster in aeternum et in saeculum saeculi ipse reget nos in saecula
