Psalms 5
1 To the ouercomere on the eritagis, the song of Dauid. Lord, perseyue thou my wordis with eeris; vndurstonde thou my cry.
TO THE OVERSEER. [BLOWN] INTO THE PIPES. A PSALM OF DAVID. Hear my sayings, O YHWH, Consider my (meditation)
2 Mi kyng, and my God; yyue thou tent to the vois of my preier.
Be attentive to the voice of my cry, My King and my God, For I pray to You habitually.
3 For, Lord, Y schal preie to thee; here thou eerly my vois.
YHWH, [in] the morning You hear my voice, [In] the morning I set in array for You, And I look out [expectantly].
4 Eerli Y schal stonde nyy thee, and Y schal se; for thou art God not willynge wickidnesse.
For You [are] not a God desiring wickedness, Evil does not inhabit You.
5 Nethir an yuel willid man schal dwelle bisidis thee; nethir vniust men schulen dwelle bifor thin iyen.
The boastful do not station themselves before Your eyes: You have hated all working iniquity.
6 Thou hatist alle that worchen wickidnesse; thou schalt leese alle that speken leesyng. The Lord schal holde abhomynable a manquellere, and gileful man.
You destroy those speaking lies, YHWH detests a man of blood and deceit.
7 But, Lord, in the multitude of thi merci Y schal entre in to thin hows; Y schal worschipe to thin hooli temple in thi drede.
And I, in the abundance of Your kindness, I enter Your house, I bow myself toward Your holy temple in Your fear.
8 Lord, lede thou forth me in thi riytfulnesse for myn enemyes; dresse thou my weie in thi siyt.
O YHWH, lead me in Your righteousness, Because of those observing me, Make Your way straight before me,
9 For whi treuthe is not in her mouth; her herte is veyn.
For there is no stability in their mouth. Their heart [is] mischiefs, Their throat [is] an open grave, They make their tongue smooth.
10 Her throte is an opyn sepulcre, thei diden gilefuli with her tungis; God, deme thou hem. Falle thei doun fro her thouytis, vp the multitude of her wickidnessis caste thou hem doun; for, Lord, thei han terrid thee to ire.
Declare them guilty, O God, Let them fall from their own counsels, In the abundance of their transgressions Drive them away, Because they have been rebellious against You.
11 And alle that hopen in thee, be glad; thei schulen make fulli ioye with outen ende, and thou schalt dwelle in hem. And alle that louen thi name schulen haue glorie in thee;
And all trusting in You rejoice, They sing for all time, and You cover them over, And those loving Your Name exult in You.
12 for thou schalt blesse a iust man. Lord, thou hast corouned vs, as with the scheeld of thi good wille.
For You bless the righteous, O YHWH, Surrounding him with favor as a buckler!
