< Psalms 5 >

1 To the ouercomere on the eritagis, the song of Dauid. Lord, perseyue thou my wordis with eeris; vndurstonde thou my cry.
For the chief musician; with wind instruments. A psalm of David. Listen to my call to you, Yahweh; think about my groanings.
2 Mi kyng, and my God; yyue thou tent to the vois of my preier.
Listen to the sound of my call, my King and my God, for it is to you that I pray.
3 For, Lord, Y schal preie to thee; here thou eerly my vois.
Yahweh, in the morning you hear my cry; in the morning I will bring my petition to you and wait expectantly.
4 Eerli Y schal stonde nyy thee, and Y schal se; for thou art God not willynge wickidnesse.
Certainly you are not a God who approves of evil; evil people will not be your guests.
5 Nethir an yuel willid man schal dwelle bisidis thee; nethir vniust men schulen dwelle bifor thin iyen.
The arrogant will not stand in your presence; you hate all who behave wickedly.
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 will destroy liars; Yahweh despises violent and deceitful men.
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.
But as for me, because of your great covenant faithfulness, I will come into your house; in reverence I will bow down toward your holy temple.
8 Lord, lede thou forth me in thi riytfulnesse for myn enemyes; dresse thou my weie in thi siyt.
Oh Lord, lead me in your righteousness because of my enemies; make your path straight before me.
9 For whi treuthe is not in her mouth; her herte is veyn.
For there is no truth in their mouth; their inward being is wicked; their throat is an open tomb; they flatter with their tongue.
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, God; may their schemes be their downfall! Drive them out for their many transgressions, for they have rebelled 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;
But may all those who take refuge in you rejoice; let them always shout for joy because you defend them; let them be joyful in you, those who love your name.
12 for thou schalt blesse a iust man. Lord, thou hast corouned vs, as with the scheeld of thi good wille.
For you will bless the righteous, Yahweh; you will surround them with favor as with a shield.
