PSALM IX. [The title of the [Om. Q.] nynthe salm. [verse 1] In to the ende, for the pryuytees of the sone, the salm of Dauid [A glos. This salm was maad of Dauid for the priuytees of the sones, that is, for the doom of dis|crecioun, bi which feithful men ben de|partid in meri|tis fro vnfeith|ful men, and for the doom of the last de|partyng of good men and yuel. A et alii.] .]

[verse 2] Lord, Y schal knouleche to thee in al myn herte; Y schal telle alle thi merueils. [verse 3] Thou hiȝeste [higheste Lord I.] , Y schal be glad, and Y schal be fulli ioieful in thee; Y [and Y I.] schal synge to thi name. [verse 4] For thou turnest myn enemy abac; thei schulen be maad feble,

and [and thei I.] schulen perische fro thi face. [verse 5] For thou hast maad my doom and my cause; thou, that demest riȝtfulnesse, `hast set [sittist up I. sittist K.] on the [a I.] trone. [verse 6] Thou blamedist [hast blamid I.] hethene men, and the wickid [wickid man I.] perischide; thou hast do awei the name of hem in to the world, and in to the world of world [worldis S.] . [verse 7] The swerdis of the enemy failiden [han failid I.] in to the ende; and thou hast distried the citees of hem. The mynde of hem perischide [perische A. hath perischid I.] with [verse 8] sown; and the Lord dwellith with outen ende. He made [hath made I.] redi his trone in doom; [verse 9] and he schal deme the world in equite, he schal deme puplis in riȝtfulnesse. [verse 10] And the Lord is maad refuyt [the refuyt I.] , `ether help [Om. I.] , `to a [of the I.] pore man; an [and his I.] helpere in couenable tymes in tribulacioun. [verse 11] And thei, that knowen thi name, haue [haue thei IK.] hope in thee; for thou, Lord, hast not forsake hem that seken thee. [verse 12] Synge ȝe to the Lord, that dwellith in Syon; telle [and telle I.] ȝe hise studyes [studies, that is, the gospel K.] among hethene men. [verse 13] God forȝetith not the cry of pore men; for he hath mynde [mynde of hem I.] , and [and he I.] sekith the blood of hem. [verse 14] Lord, haue thou merci on [of I.] me; se [and se I.] thou my mekenesse of myn enemyes. [verse 15] Which enhaunsist me fro the ȝatis of deeth; that Y telle alle thi preisyngis in the ȝatis of the douȝter of Syon. [verse 16] Y schal `be fulli ioyeful [ioye fully I.] in thin helthe; hethene men ben fast set in the perisching, which [that I.] thei maden [han maad to oothere men I.] . In this snare, which thei hidden [han hid I.] , the foot of hem is kauȝt. [verse 17] The Lord makynge domes schal be knowun; the synnere is takun in the werkis of hise hondis. [verse 18] Synneris be turned togidere in to helle; alle folkis, that for|ȝeten God. [verse 19] For the forȝetyng of a pore man schal not be in to the ende; the pa|cience of pore men schal not perische in to the ende. [verse 20] Lord, rise thou vp, a man be not coumfortid; folkis be demyd in thi siȝt. [verse 21] Lord, ordeine thou a lawe makere on [upon I.] hem; wite folkis, that thei ben men.

[verse 1] Lord, whi hast thou go fer awei? thou dispisist [dispisist vs I.] `in couenable [couenably R.] tymes [tyme A.] in tribula|cioun. [verse 2] While the wickid [wickid man I.] is [wexith I.] proud, the pore man is brent; thei ben taken in the counsels [nickide counsels I.] , bi [Om. I.] whiche thei thenken. [verse 3] For|whi the synnere is preisid in the desiris of his soule; and the wickid is blessid. [verse 4] The synnere `wraththide the Lord [hath terrid the Lord to wraththe I.] ; vp [aftir I. on S.] the multitude of his ire [wraththe I.] he schal not seke. [verse 5] God is not in his siȝt; hise weies ben de|foulid in al tyme. God [Om. I.] , thi domes ben takun awei fro his face; he schal be lord of alle hise enemyes. [verse 6] For [Forsothe I.] he seide in his herte, Y schal not be moued, fro genera|cioun in to generacioun without yuel. [verse 7] `Whos mouth [The mouth of whom I.] is ful of cursyng, and of bitternesse, and of gyle; trauel [and trauel I.] and so|rewe is vndur his tunge. [verse 8] He sittith in aspies with ryche men in priuytees; to sle the innocent man. [verse 9] Hise iȝen biholden [biholden cruelly I.] on a [the I.] pore man; he settith aspies in hid [his I.] place, as a lioun in his denne. He settith aspies, for to rauysche a [the I.] pore man; for to rauysche a pore man, while he drawith the [a I.] pore man [man to him I.] . [verse 10] In his snare he schal make [Om. S.] meke the pore man; he schal bowe hym silf [hym silf doun I.] , and schal [he schal I.] falle doun [Om. I.] , whanne he hath be lord of pore men. [verse 11] For [Forsothe I.] he seide in his herte, God hath forȝete [forȝete the pore man, and I.] ; he hath turned awei his face, that he se [se him I.] not in to the ende. [verse 12] Lord God, rise thou vp, and thin hond be enhaunsid; forȝete thou not pore men. [verse 13] For what thing terride [hath terrid I.] the wickid [vnpitous I.] man God to wraththe? for he seide in his herte, God schal not [not aȝen I.] seke. [verse 14] Thou seest, for thou biholdist trauel and sorewe; that thou take hem in to thin hondis. The pore man is left to thee; thou schalt be an helpere to the fadirles and modirles [moderles child S.] . [verse 15] Al to-breke thou the arme of the synnere, and yuel willid; his synne schal be souȝt, and it schal not be foundun. [verse 16] The Lord schal regne with outen ende, and in to the world of world; folkis, ȝe

schulen perische fro the lond of hym. [verse 17] The Lord hath herd the desir of pore men; thin eere hath herd the makyng redi of her herte. [verse 18] To deme for [fro KS.] the [the fadirles and I.] modirles `and meke [Om. I.] ; that a man `leie to [presume I.] no more to `magnyfie hym silf [make him selff greet I.] on erthe.
