< Psalms 53 >
1 To the ouercomer bi the quere, the lernyng of Dauid. The vnwise man seide in his herte; God is not. Thei ben `corrupt, and maad abhomynable in her wickidnessis; noon is that doith good.
in finem pro Melech intellegentiae David dixit insipiens in corde suo non est Deus corrupti sunt et abominabiles facti sunt in iniquitatibus non est qui faciat bonum
2 God bihelde fro heuene on the sones of men; that he se, if `ony is vndurstondynge, ether sekynge God.
Deus de caelo prospexit in filios hominum ut videat si est intellegens aut requirens Deum
3 Alle boweden awei, thei ben maad vnprofitable togidre; noon is that doith good, ther is not til to oon.
omnes declinaverunt simul inutiles facti sunt non est qui faciat bonum non est usque ad unum
4 Whether alle men, that worchen wickidnesse, schulen not wite; whiche deuouren my puple as the mete of breed?
nonne scient omnes qui operantur iniquitatem qui devorant plebem meam ut cibum panis
5 Thei clepiden not God; there thei trembliden for drede, where no drede was. For God hath scaterid the boones of hem, that plesen men; thei ben schent, for God hath forsake hem.
Deum non invocaverunt illic trepidabunt timore ubi non fuit timor quoniam Deus dissipavit ossa eorum qui hominibus placent confusi sunt quoniam Deus sprevit eos
6 Who schal yyue fro Syon helthe to Israel? whanne the Lord hath turned the caitifte of his puple, Jacob schal `ful out make ioie, and Israel schal be glad.
quis dabit ex Sion salutare Israhel dum convertit Deus captivitatem plebis suae exultabit Iacob et laetabitur Israhel
