Psalms 9
1 Unto the end, for the hidden things of the Son. A psalm for David. I will give praise to thee, O Lord, with my whole heart: I will relate all thy wonders.
In to the ende, for the pryuytees of the sone, the salm of Dauid. Lord, Y schal knouleche to thee in al myn herte; Y schal telle alle thi merueils.
2 I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing to thy name, O thou most high.
Thou hiyeste, Y schal be glad, and Y schal be fulli ioieful in thee; Y schal synge to thi name.
3 When my enemy shall be turned back: they shall be weakened and perish before thy face.
For thou turnest myn enemy abac; thei schulen be maad feble, and schulen perische fro thi face.
4 For thou hast maintained my judgment and my cause: thou hast sat on the throne, who judgest justice.
For thou hast maad my doom and my cause; thou, that demest riytfulnesse, `hast set on the trone.
5 Thou hast rebuked the Gentiles, and the wicked one hath perished: thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever.
Thou blamedist hethene men, and the wickid perischide; thou hast do awei the name of hem in to the world, and in to the world of world.
6 The swords of the enemy have failed unto the end: and their cities thou hast destroyed. Their memory hath perished with a noise.
The swerdis of the enemy failiden in to the ende; and thou hast distried the citees of hem. The mynde of hem perischide with sown;
7 But the Lord remaineth for ever. He hath prepared his throne in judgment:
and the Lord dwellith with outen ende. He made redi his trone in doom; and he schal deme the world in equite,
8 And he shall judge the world in equity, he shall judge the people in justice.
he schal deme puplis in riytfulnesse.
9 And the Lord is become a refuge for the poor: a helper in due time in tribulation.
And the Lord is maad refuyt, `ether help, `to a pore man; an helpere in couenable tymes in tribulacioun.
10 And let them trust in thee who know thy name: for thou hast not forsaken them that seek thee, O Lord.
And thei, that knowen thi name, haue hope in thee; for thou, Lord, hast not forsake hem that seken thee.
11 Sing ye to the Lord, who dwelleth in Sion: declare his ways among the Gentiles:
Synge ye to the Lord, that dwellith in Syon; telle ye hise studyes among hethene men.
12 For requiring their blood he hath remembered the: he hath not forgotten the cry of the poor.
God foryetith not the cry of pore men; for he hath mynde, and sekith the blood of hem.
13 Have mercy on me, O Lord: see my humiliation which I suffer from my enemies.
Lord, haue thou merci on me; se thou my mekenesse of myn enemyes.
14 Thou that liftest me up from the gates of death, that I may declare all thy praises in the gates of the daughter of Sion.
Which enhaunsist me fro the yatis of deeth; that Y telle alle thi preisyngis in the yatis of the douyter of Syon.
15 I will rejoice in thy salvation: the Gentiles have stuck fast in the destruction which they have prepared. Their foot hath been taken in the very snare which they hid.
Y schal `be fulli ioyeful in thin helthe; hethene men ben fast set in the perisching, which thei maden. In this snare, which thei hidden, the foot of hem is kauyt.
16 The Lord shall be known when he executeth judgments: the sinner hath been caught in the works of his own hands.
The Lord makynge domes schal be knowun; the synnere is takun in the werkis of hise hondis.
Synneris be turned togidere in to helle; alle folkis, that foryeten God. (Sheol h7585)
18 For the poor man shall not be forgotten to the end: the patience of the poor shall not perish for ever.
For the foryetyng of a pore man schal not be in to the ende; the pacience of pore men schal not perische in to the ende.
19 Arise, O Lord, let not man be strengthened: let the Gentiles be judged in thy sight.
Lord, rise thou vp, a man be not coumfortid; folkis be demyd in thi siyt.
20 Appoint, O Lord, a lawgiver over them: that the Gentiles may know themselves to be but men.
Lord, ordeine thou a lawe makere on hem; wite folkis, that thei ben men.
