| 1 | 30:2 Lord, Y hopide in thee, be Y not schent with outen ende; delyuere thou me in thi riytfulnesse. |
| 2 | 30:3 Bouwe doun thin eere to me; haaste thou to delyuere me. Be thou to me in to God defendere, and in to an hows of refuyt; that thou make me saaf. |
| 3 | 30:4 For thou art my strengthe and my refuyt; and for thi name thou schalt lede me forth, and schalt nurische me. |
| 4 | 30:5 Thou schalt lede me out of the snare, which thei hidden to me; for thou art my defendere. |
| 5 | 30:6 I bitake my spirit in to thin hondis; Lord God of treuthe, thou hast ayen bouyt me. |
| 6 | 30:7 Thou hatist hem that kepen vanytees superfluli. |
| 7 | 30:8 Forsothe Y hopide in the Lord; Y schal haue fulli ioie, and schal be glad in thi merci. For thou byheldist my mekenesse; thou sauedist my lijf fro nedis. |
| 8 | 30:9 And thou closidist not me togidere withynne the hondis of the enemy; thou hast sett my feet in a large place. |
| 9 | 30:10 Lord, haue thou merci on me, for Y am troblid; myn iye is troblid in ire, my soule and my wombe `ben troblid. |
| 10 | 30:11 For whi my lijf failide in sorewe; and my yeeris in weilynges. Mi vertu is maad feble in pouert; and my boonys ben disturblid. |
| 11 | 30:12 Ouer alle myn enemyes Y am maad schenship greetli to my neiyboris; and drede to my knowun. Thei that sien me with outforth, fledden fro me; Y am youun to foryetyng, |
| 12 | 30:13 as a deed man fro herte. I am maad as a lorun vessel; |
| 13 | 30:14 for Y herde dispisyng of many men dwellynge in cumpas. In that thing the while thei camen togidere ayens me; thei counceliden to take my lijf. |
| 14 | 30:15 But, Lord, Y hopide in thee; Y seide, Thou art my God; my tymes ben in thin hondis. |
| 15 | 30:16 Delyuer thou me fro the hondis of mynen enemyes; and fro hem that pursuen me. |
| 16 | 30:17 Make thou cleer thi face on thi seruaunt; Lord, make thou me saaf in thi merci; |
| 17 | 30:18 be Y not schent, for Y inwardli clepide thee. Unpitouse men be aschamed, and be led forth in to helle; |
| 18 | 30:19 gileful lippys be maad doumbe. That speken wickidnesse ayens a iust man; in pride, and in mysusyng. |
| 19 | 30:20 Lord, the multitude of thi swetnesse is ful greet; which thou hast hid to men dredynge thee. Thou hast maad a perfit thing to hem, that hopen in thee; in the siyt of the sones of men. |
| 20 | 30:21 Thou schalt hide hem in the priuyte of thi face; fro disturblyng of men. Thou schalt defende hem in thi tabernacle; fro ayenseiyng of tungis. |
| 21 | 30:22 Blessid be the Lord; for he hath maad wondurful his merci to me in a strengthid citee. |
| 22 | 30:23 Forsothe Y seide in the passyng of my soule; Y am cast out fro the face of thin iyen. Therfor thou herdist the vois of my preier; while Y criede to thee. |
| 23 | 30:24 Alle ye hooli men of the Lord, loue hym; for the Lord schal seke treuthe, and he schal yelde plenteuousli to hem that doen pride. |
| 24 | 30:25 Alle ye that hopen in the Lord, do manli; and youre herte be coumfortid. |
