سَبِّحُوا الرَّبَّ، فَإِنَّ التَّرَنُّمَ لإِلَهِنَا طَيِّبٌ، وَتَسْبِيحُهُ مُلِذٌّ وَلائِقٌ. ١ 1
Alleluya. Herie ye the Lord, for the salm is good; heriyng be myrie, and fair to oure God.
يَبْنِي الرَّبُّ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَيَجْمَعُ شَمْلَ الْمَنْفِيِّينَ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٢ 2
The Lord schal bilde Jerusalem; and schal gadere togidere the scateryngis of Israel.
إِنَّهُ يَشْفِي مُنْكَسِرِي الْقَلْبِ وَيُضَمِّدُ جِرَاحَهُمْ. ٣ 3
Which Lord makith hool men contrit in herte; and byndith togidere the sorewes of hem.
يُحْصِي عَدَدَ الْكَوَاكِبِ وَيَدْعُوهَا جَمِيعَهَا بِأَسْمَائِهَا. ٤ 4
Which noumbrith the multitude of sterris; and clepith names to alle tho.
عَظِيمٌ هُوَ سَيِّدُنَا، وَفَائِقَةٌ هِيَ قُوَّتُهُ، وَلَا حَدَّ لِحِكْمَتِهِ. ٥ 5
Oure Lord is greet, and his vertu is greet; and of his wisdom is no noumbre.
يَرْفَعُ الرَّبُّ الْوُدَعَاءَ، وَيَطْرَحُ الأَشْرَارَ إِلَى الأَرْضِ. ٦ 6
The Lord takith vp mylde men; forsothe he makith low synneris `til to the erthe.
رُدُّوا عَلَى الرَّبِّ بِحَمْدٍ، رَنِّمُوا لإِلَهِنَا عَلَى الْعُودِ. ٧ 7
Bifore synge ye to the Lord in knoulechyng; seye ye salm to oure God in an harpe.
فَهُوَ يَكْسُو السَّمَاوَاتِ سَحَاباً وَيُمْطِرُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ، وَيُنْبِتُ الْعُشْبَ عَلَى الْجِبَالِ. ٨ 8
Which hilith heuene with cloudis; and makith redi reyn to the erthe. Which bryngith forth hei in hillis; and eerbe to the seruice of men.
يَهَبُ الطَّعَامَ لِلْبَهَائِمِ، وَلِفِرَاخِ الْغِرْبَانِ النَّاعِقَةِ. ٩ 9
Which yyueth mete to her werk beestis; and to the briddys of crowis clepinge hym.
لَا تَسْتَهْوِيهِ قُوَّةُ الْخَيْلِ، وَلَا تَسُرُّهُ سَاقَا الْعَدَّاءِ. ١٠ 10
He schal not haue wille in the strengthe of an hors; nether it schal be wel plesaunt to hym in the leggis of a man.
إِنَّمَا يَرْضَى الرَّبُّ بِخَائِفِيهِ، الرَّاجِينَ رَحْمَتَهُ. ١١ 11
It is wel plesaunt to the Lord on men that dreden hym; and in hem that hopen on his mercy.
مَجِّدِي الرَّبَّ يَا أُورُشَلِيمُ، وَسَبِّحِي إِلَهَكِ يَا صِهْيَوْنُ. ١٢ 12
Jerusalem, herie thou the Lord; Syon, herie thou thi God.
فَإِنَّهُ ثَبَّتَ عَوَارِضَ أَبْوَابِكِ (فِي وَجْهِ الأَعْدَاءِ)، وَبَارَكَ بَنِيكِ فِي دَاخِلِكِ. ١٣ 13
For he hath coumfortid the lockis of thi yatis; he hath blessid thi sones in thee.
هُوَ الَّذِي يَجْعَلُ حُدُودَكِ آمِنَةً، وَمِنْ أَفْضَلِ الْحِنْطَةِ يُشْبِعُكِ خُبْزاً. ١٤ 14
Which hath set thi coostis pees; and fillith thee with the fatnesse of wheete.
يُصْدِرُ أَمْرَهُ إِلَى الأَرْضِ فَتُنَفِّذُهُ بِسُرْعَةٍ فَائِقَةٍ. ١٥ 15
Which sendith out his speche to the erthe; his word renneth swiftli.
يَنْثُرُ الثَّلْجَ كَالصُّوفِ، وَيُذَرِّي الْجَلِيدَ كَالرَّمَادِ. ١٦ 16
Which yyueth snow as wolle; spredith abrood a cloude as aische.
يُلْقِي بَرَدَهُ كَفُتَاتِ الْخُبْزِ. مَنْ يَصْمُدُ فِي وَجْهِ صَقِيعِهِ؟ ١٧ 17
He sendith his cristal as mussels; who schal suffre bifore the face of his cooldnesse?
ثُمَّ يُصْدِرُ أَمْرَهُ فَيُذِيبُهَا. يُرْسِلُ رِيحَهُ فَتَسِيلُ الْمِيَاهُ. ١٨ 18
He schal sende out his word, and schal melte tho; his spirit schal blowe, and watris schulen flowe.
يُعْلِنُ لِيَعْقُوبَ كَلِمَتَهُ وَلإِسْرَائِيلَ فَرَائِضَهُ وَأَحْكَامَهُ. ١٩ 19
Which tellith his word to Jacob; and hise riytfulnessis and domes to Israel.
