Psalms 64

1 `In Ebrewe thus, To the victorie, the salm of Dauid. `In Jerom `thus, To the ouercomer, the song of Dauid. God, here thou my preier, whanne Y biseche; delyuere thou my soule fro the drede of the enemy.

to/for to conduct melody to/for David to hear: hear God voice my in/on/with complaint my from dread enemy to watch life my

2 Thou hast defendid me fro the couent of yuele doers; fro the multitude of hem that worchen wickidnesse.

to hide me from counsel be evil from scheming to work evil: wickedness

3 For thei scharpiden her tungis as a swerd, thei benten a bowe, a bittir thing;

which to sharpen like/as sword tongue their to tread arrow their word bitter

4 for to schete in priuetees hym that is vnwemmed.

to/for to shoot in/on/with hiding complete suddenly to shoot him and not to fear

5 Sodeynli thei schulen schete hym, and thei schulen not drede; thei maden stidefast to hem silf a wickid word. Thei telden, that thei schulden hide snaris; thei seiden, Who schal se hem?

to strengthen: hold to/for them word: deed bad: evil to recount to/for to hide snare to say who? to see: see to/for them

6 Thei souyten wickidnessis; thei souyten, and failiden in sekinge. A man neiyhe to deep herte;

to search injustice to finish plot to search and entrails: inner parts man and heart deep

7 and God schal be enhaunsid. The arowis of `litle men ben maad the woundis of hem;

and to shoot them God arrow suddenly to be wound their

8 and the tungis of hem ben maad sijk ayens hem. Alle men ben disturblid, that sien hem;

and to stumble him upon them tongue their to wander all to see: see in/on/with them

9 and ech man dredde. And thei telden the werkis of God; and vndurstoden the dedis of God.

and to fear: revere all man and to tell work God and deed: work his be prudent

10 The iust man schal be glad in the Lord, and schal hope in hym; and alle men of riytful herte schulen be preisid.

to rejoice righteous in/on/with LORD and to seek refuge in/on/with him and to boast: boast all upright heart
