Psalmorum 44
1 in finem filiis Core ad intellectum
`To victorie, lernyng to the sones of Chore. God, we herden with oure eeris; oure fadris telden to vs. The werk, which thou wrouytist in the daies of hem; and in elde daies.
2 Deus auribus nostris audivimus patres nostri adnuntiaverunt nobis opus quod operatus es in diebus eorum in diebus antiquis
Thin hond lost hethene men, and thou plauntidist hem; thou turmentidist puplis, and castidist hem out.
3 manus tua gentes disperdit et plantasti eos adflixisti populos et expulisti eos
For the children of Israel weldiden the lond not bi her swerd; and the arm of hem sauyde not hem. But thi riyt hond, and thin arm, and the liytnyng of thi cheer; for thou were plesid in hem.
4 nec enim in gladio suo possederunt terram et brachium eorum non salvavit eos sed dextera tua et brachium tuum et inluminatio faciei tuae quoniam conplacuisti in eis
Thou art thi silf, my kyng and my God; that sendist helthis to Jacob.
5 tu es ipse rex meus et Deus meus qui mandas salutes Iacob
Bi thee we schulen wyndewe oure enemyes with horn; and in thi name we schulen dispise hem, that risen ayen vs.
6 in te inimicos nostros ventilabimus cornu et in nomine tuo spernemus insurgentes in nobis
For Y schal not hope in my bouwe; and my swerd schal not saue me.
7 non enim in arcu meo sperabo et gladius meus non salvabit me
For thou hast saued vs fro men turmentinge vs; and thou hast schent men hatinge vs.
8 salvasti enim nos de adfligentibus nos et odientes nos confudisti
We schulen be preisid in God al dai; and in thi name we schulen knouleche to thee in to the world.
9 in Deo laudabimur tota die et in nomine tuo confitebimur in saeculum diapsalma
But now thou hast put vs abac, and hast schent vs; and thou, God, schalt not go out in oure vertues.
10 nunc autem reppulisti et confudisti nos et non egredieris in virtutibus nostris
Thou hast turned vs awei bihynde aftir oure enemyes; and thei, that hatiden vs, rauyschiden dyuerseli to hem silf.
11 avertisti nos retrorsum post inimicos nostros et qui oderunt nos diripiebant sibi
Thou hast youe vs as scheep of meetis; and among hethene men thou hast scaterid vs.
12 dedisti nos tamquam oves escarum et in gentibus dispersisti nos
Thou hast seeld thi puple with out prijs; and multitude was not in the chaungyngis of hem.
13 vendidisti populum tuum sine pretio et non fuit multitudo in commutationibus nostris
Thou hast set vs schenschip to oure neiyboris; mouwyng and scorn to hem that ben in oure cumpas.
14 posuisti nos obprobrium vicinis nostris subsannationem et derisum his qui in circuitu nostro
Thou hast set vs into licnesse to hethene me; stiryng of heed among puplis.
15 posuisti nos in similitudinem gentibus commotionem capitis in populis
Al dai my schame is ayens me; and the schenschipe of my face hilide me.
16 tota die verecundia mea contra me est et confusio faciei meae cooperuit me
Fro the vois of dispisere, and yuele spekere; fro the face of enemy, and pursuere.
17 a voce exprobrantis et obloquentis a facie inimici et persequentis
Alle these thingis camen on vs, and we han not foryete thee; and we diden not wickidli in thi testament.
18 haec omnia venerunt super nos nec obliti sumus te et inique non egimus in testamento tuo
And oure herte yede not awei bihynde; and thou hast bowid awei oure pathis fro thi weie.
19 et non recessit retrorsum cor nostrum et declinasti semitas nostras a via tua
For thou hast maad vs lowe in the place of turment; and the schadewe of deth hilide vs.
20 quoniam humiliasti nos in loco adflictionis et cooperuit nos umbra mortis
If we foryaten the name of oure God; and if we helden forth oure hondis to an alien God.
21 si obliti sumus nomen Dei nostri et si expandimus manus nostras ad deum alienum
Whether God schal not seke these thingis? for he knowith the hid thingis of herte.
22 nonne Deus requiret ista ipse enim novit abscondita cordis quoniam propter te mortificamur omni die aestimati sumus sicut oves occisionis
For whi we ben slayn al dai for thee; we ben demed as scheep of sleyng.
23 exsurge quare dormis Domine exsurge et ne repellas in finem
Lord, rise vp, whi slepist thou? rise vp, and putte not awei in to the ende.
24 quare faciem tuam avertis oblivisceris inopiae nostrae et tribulationis nostrae
Whi turnest thou awei thi face? thou foryetist oure pouert, and oure tribulacioun.
25 quoniam humiliata est in pulvere anima nostra conglutinatus est in terra venter noster
For oure lijf is maad low in dust; oure wombe is glued togidere in the erthe.
26 exsurge adiuva nos et redime nos propter nomen tuum
Lord, rise vp thou, and helpe vs; and ayenbie vs for thi name.
