Psalms113

The titil of the hundrid and thrittenthe salm. Alleluya. In the goyng out of Israel fro Egipt; of the hous of Jacob fro the hethene puple.

Judee was maad the halewyng of hym; Israel the power of hym.

The see siy, and fledde; Jordan was turned abac.

Munteyns ful out ioyeden as rammes; and litle hillis as the lambren of scheep.

Thou see, what was to thee, for thou fleddist; and thou, Jordan, for thou were turned abak?

Munteyns, ye maden ful out ioye as rammes; and litle hillis, as the lambren of scheep.

The erthe was moued fro the face of `the Lord; fro the face of God of Jacob.

Which turnede a stoon in to pondis of watris; and an hard rooch in to wellis of watris.

Lord, not to vs, not to vs; but yyue thou glorie to thi name.

On thi merci and thi treuthe; lest ony tyme hethene men seien, Where is the God of hem?

Forsothe oure God in heuene; dide alle thingis, whiche euere he wolde.

The symulacris of hethene men ben siluer and gold; the werkis of mennus hondis.

Tho han mouth, and schulen not speke; tho han iyen, and schulen not se.

Tho han eeris, and schulen not here; tho han nose thurls, and schulen not smelle.

Tho han hondis, and schulen not grope; tho han feet, and schulen not go; tho schulen not crye in her throte.

Thei that maken tho ben maad lijk tho; and alle that triste in tho.

The hous of Israel hopide in the Lord; he is the helpere `of hem, and the defendere of hem.

The hous of Aaron hopide in the Lord; he is the helpere of hem, and the defendere of hem.

Thei that dreden the Lord, hopiden in the Lord; he is the helpere of hem, and the defendere of hem.

The Lord was myndeful of vs; and blesside vs. He blesside the hous of Israel; he blesside the hous of Aaron.

He blesside alle men that dreden the Lord; `he blesside litle `men with the grettere.

The Lord encreesse on you; on you and on youre sones.

Blessid be ye of the Lord; that made heuene and erthe.

Heuene of `heuene is to the Lord; but he yaf erthe to the sones of men.

Lord, not deed men schulen herie thee; nether alle men that goen doun in to helle.

But we that lyuen, blessen the Lord; fro this tyme now and til in to the world.
