Psalms 35
Psalms chapter 35 from the John Wycliffe Bible (c.1395)
1 And thi merci schal sue me; in alle the daies of my lijf. And that Y dwelle in the hows of the Lord; in to the lengthe of daies.
3 The title of the thre and twentithe salm. The song of Dauid. The erthe and the fulnesse therof is the Lordis; the world, and alle that dwellen therynne is the Lordis.</span> <span class="verse" data-verse="4"><sup>4</sup> For he foundide it on the sees; and made it redi on floodis.</span> <span class="verse" data-verse="5"><sup>5</sup> Who schal stie in to the hil of the Lord; ethir who schal stonde in the hooli place of hym?</span> <span class="verse" data-verse="6"><sup>6</sup> The innocent in hondis, and in cleene herte; whiche took not his soule in veyn, nether swoor in gile to his neiybore.</span> <span class="verse" data-verse="7"><sup>7</sup> This man schal take blessyng of the Lord; and mercy of God his helthe.
8 This is the generacioun of men sekynge hym; of men sekynge the face of God of Jacob.
9 Ye princes, take vp youre yatis, and ye euerelastynge yatis, be reisid; and the kyng of glorie schal entre.
10 Who is this kyng of glorie? the Lord strong and myyti, the Lord myyti in batel.
11 Ye princes, take vp youre yatis, and ye euerlastynge yatis, be reisid; and the kyng of glorie schal entre.
12 Who is this kyng of glorie? the Lord of vertues, he is the kyng of glorie.
14 The title of the foure and twentithe salm. To Dauid.
15 Lord, to thee Y haue reisid my soule; my God, Y truste in thee, be Y not aschamed.
16 Nethir myn enemyes scorne me; for alle men that suffren thee schulen not be schent.
17 Alle men doynge wickyd thingis superfluli; be schent. Lord, schewe thou thi weies to me; and teche thou me thi pathis.
18 Dresse thou me in thi treuthe, and teche thou me, for thou art God my sauyour; and Y suffride thee al dai.
19 Lord, haue thou mynde of thi merciful doyngis; and of thi mercies that ben fro the world.
20 Haue thou not mynde on the trespassis of my yongthe; and on myn vnkunnyngis. Thou, Lord, haue mynde on me bi thi merci; for thi goodnesse.
21 The Lord is swete and riytful; for this he schal yyue a lawe to men trespassynge in the weie.
22 He schal dresse deboner men in doom; he schal teche mylde men hise weies.
23 Alle the weies of the Lord ben mercy and treuthe; to men sekynge his testament, and hise witnessyngis.
24 Lord, for thi name thou schalt do merci to my synne; for it is myche.
25 Who is a man, that dredith the Lord? he ordeyneth to hym a lawe in the weie which he chees.
26 His soule schal dwelle in goodis; and his seed schal enerite the lond.
27 The Lord is a sadnesse to men dredynge hym; and his testament is, that it be schewid to hem.
28 Myn iyen ben euere to the Lord; for he schal breide awey my feet fro the snare.
