[1] The `title of the sixte and seuentithe salm. `To the ouercomere on Yditum, `the salm of Asaph.
[2] With my vois Y criede to the Lord; with my vois to God, and he yaf tent to me.
[3] In the dai of my tribulacioun Y souyte God with myn hondis; in the nyyt `to fore hym, and Y am not disseyued. Mi soule forsook to be coumfortid;
[4] Y was myndeful of God, and Y delitide, and Y was exercisid; and my spirit failide.
[5] Myn iyen bifore took wakyngis; Y was disturblid, and Y spak not.
[6] I thouyte elde daies; and Y hadde in mynde euerlastinge yeeris.
[7] And Y thouyte in the nyyt with myn herte; and Y was exercisid, and Y clensid my spirit.
[8] Whether God schal caste awei with outen ende; ether schal he not lei to, that he be more plesid yit?
[9] Ethir schal he kitte awei his merci into the ende; fro generacioun in to generacioun?
[10] Ethir schal God foryete to do mercy; ethir schal he withholde his mercies in his ire?
[11] And Y seide, Now Y bigan; this is the chaunging of the riythond of `the hiye God.
[12] I hadde mynde on the werkis of the Lord; for Y schal haue mynde fro the bigynnyng of thi merueilis.
