Psalmorum 149

1 Alleluja. [Cantate Domino canticum novum; laus ejus in ecclesia sanctorum.

Alleluya. Synge ye to the Lord a newe song; hise heriyng be in the chirche of seyntis.

2 Lætetur Israël in eo qui fecit eum, et filii Sion exsultent in rege suo.

Israel be glad in hym that made hym; and the douytris of Syon make ful out ioye in her king.

3 Laudent nomen ejus in choro; in tympano et psalterio psallant ei.

Herie thei his name in a queer; seie thei salm to hym in a tympan, and sautre.

4 Quia beneplacitum est Domino in populo suo, et exaltabit mansuetos in salutem.

For the Lord is wel plesid in his puple; and he hath reisid mylde men in to heelthe.

5 Exsultabunt sancti in gloria; lætabuntur in cubilibus suis.

Seyntis schulen make ful out ioye in glorie; thei schulen be glad in her beddis.

6 Exaltationes Dei in gutture eorum, et gladii ancipites in manibus eorum:

The ful out ioiyngis of God in the throte of hem; and swerdis scharp on `ech side in the hondis of hem.

7 ad faciendam vindictam in nationibus, increpationes in populis;

To do veniaunce in naciouns; blamyngis in puplis.

8 ad alligandos reges eorum in compedibus, et nobiles eorum in manicis ferreis;

To bynde the kyngis of hem in stockis; and the noble men of hem in yrun manaclis.

9 ut faciant in eis judicium conscriptum: gloria hæc est omnibus sanctis ejus. Alleluja.]

That thei make in hem doom writun; this is glorye to alle hise seyntis.
