The Lord my liȝting and myn helthe; whom I shal dreden? The Lord defendere of my lif; fro whom I shal quake? [verse 2] Whil neȝhen vp on me noȝeris; that thei ete my flesh. That trublen me, myn enemys;
thei arn [ben AEH.] feblid and fellen. [verse 3] If they setten aȝen me tentis; myn herte shal not drede. If rijse out aȝen me bataile; in that I shal hope. [verse 4] O thing I askide of the Lord, that I shal ofte [eft A.] sechen; that I duelle in the hous of the Lord alle `daȝis of [the dais of A. Om. H.] my lif. That I see the wil of the Lord; and visite his temple. [verse 5] For he hidde me in his taber|nacle in the day of euelis; and defendede me in the hidde place of hys tabernacle. [verse 6] In the ston he enhauncide me; and now he hath enhauncid myn hed vp on myn enemys. I haue gon aboute, and offrid in his tabernacle an ost of criyng out; I shal singe, and seyn salm to the Lord. [verse 7] Ful out here, Lord, my vois, that I criede to thee; haue mercy of me, and ful out here me. [verse 8] To thee seide myn herte, Ful out soȝte thee my face; thi face, Lord, I shal ofte [eft A.] seche. [verse 9] Ne turne thou awei thi face fro me; ne bowe thou doun in wrathe fro thi seruaunt. Myn helpere be thou, Lord; ne forsake thou me, ne despise thou [Om. AEH.] me, God, myn helthe ȝyuere. [verse 10] For my fader and my moder forsoken me; the Lord forsothe hath take me to. [verse 11] Lawe set to me, Lord, in thi weie; and dresse me in a riȝt path for myn enemys. [verse 12] Ne thou shalt take me in to the soulis of men trublende me, for ther han in [Om. C.] risen aȝen me wicke [wyckid AH.] witnessis; and wickid|nesse hath lowe [flowen H.] to them [me A.] . [verse 13] I leeue to seen the goodis of the Lord; in the lond of lyueres. [verse 14] Abiyd the Lord, manli do; and be coumfortid thin herte, and sustene the Lord.
