6 devertit ab oneribus dorsum eius manus eius in cofino servierunt

7 in tribulatione invocasti me et liberavi te exaudivi te in abscondito tempestatis probavi te apud aquam Contradictionis diapsalma

8 audi populus meus et contestabor te Israhel si audias me
My puple, here thou, and Y schal be witnesse ayens thee;
9 non erit in te deus recens nec adorabis deum alienum

10 ego enim sum Dominus Deus tuus qui eduxi te de terra Aegypti dilata os tuum et implebo illud

11 et non audivit populus meus vocem meam et Israhel non intendit mihi

12 et dimisi illos secundum desideria cordis eorum ibunt in adinventionibus suis

13 si populus meus audisset me Israhel si in viis meis ambulasset
If my puple hadde herde me; if Israel hadde go in my weies.
14 pro nihilo forsitan inimicos eorum humiliassem et super tribulantes eos misissem manum meam
For nouyt in hap Y hadde maad low her enemyes; and Y hadde send myn hond on men doynge tribulacioun to hem.
15 inimici Domini mentiti sunt ei et erit tempus eorum in saeculo
The enemyes of the Lord lieden to hym; and her tyme schal be in to worldis.
16 et cibavit illos ex adipe frumenti et de petra melle saturavit illos
And he fedde hem of the fatnesse of whete; and he fillide hem with hony of the stoon.
