1 36:1 The title of the sixe and thrittithe salm. To Dauith. Nile thou sue wickid men; nether loue thou men doynge wickidnesse.
2 36:2 For thei schulen wexe drie swiftli as hey; and thei schulen falle doun soone as the wortis of eerbis.
3 36:3 Hope thou in the Lord, and do thou goodnesse; and enhabite thou the lond, and thou schalt be fed with hise richessis.
4 36:4 Delite thou in the Lord; and he schal yyue to thee the axyngis of thin herte.
5 36:5 Schewe thi weie to the Lord; and hope thou in hym, and he schal do.
6 36:6 And he schal lede out thi riytfulnesse as liyt, and thi doom as myddai;
7 36:7 be thou suget to the Lord, and preye thou hym. Nile thou sue hym, that hath prosperite in his weie; a man doynge vnriytfulnessis.
8 36:8 Ceese thou of ire, and forsake woodnesse; nyle thou sue, that thou do wickidli.
9 36:9 For thei, that doen wickidli, schulen be distried; but thei that suffren the Lord, schulen enerite the lond.
10 36:10 And yit a litil, and a synnere schal not be; and thou schalt seke his place, and schalt not fynde.
11 36:11 But mylde men schulen enerite the lond; and schulen delite in the multitude of pees.
12 36:12 A synnere schal aspie a riytful man; and he schal gnaste with hise teeth on hym.
13 36:13 But the Lord schal scorne the synnere; for he biholdith that his day cometh.
14 36:14 Synners drowen out swerd; thei benten her bouwe. To disseyue a pore man and nedi; to strangle riytful men of herte.
15 36:15 Her swerd entre in to the herte of hem silf; and her bouwe be brokun.
16 36:16 Betere is a litil thing to a iust man; than many richessis of synneris.
17 36:17 For the armes of synneris schal be al to-brokun; but the Lord confermeth iust men.
18 36:18 The Lord knowith the daies of vnwemmed; and her heritage schal be withouten ende.
19 36:19 Thei schulen not be schent in the yuel tyme, and thei schulen be fillid in the dayes of hungur;
20 36:20 for synneris schulen perische. Forsothe anoon as the enemyes of the Lord ben onourid, and enhaunsid; thei failynge schulen faile as smoke.
21 36:21 A synnere schal borewe, and schal not paie; but a iust man hath merci, and schal yyue.
22 36:22 For thei that blessen the Lord schulen enerite the lond; but thei that cursen hym schulen perische.
23 36:23 The goyng of a man schal be dressid anentis the Lord; and he schal wilne his weie.
24 36:24 Whanne he fallith, he schal not be hurtlid doun; for the Lord vndursettith his hond.
25 36:25 I was yongere, and sotheli Y wexide eld, and Y siy not a iust man forsakun; nethir his seed sekynge breed.
26 36:26 Al dai he hath merci, and leeneth; and his seed schal be in blessyng.
27 36:27 Bouwe thou awei fro yuel, and do good; and dwelle thou in to the world of world.
28 36:28 For the Lord loueth doom, and schal not forsake hise seyntis; thei schulen be kept with outen ende. Vniust men schulen be punyschid; and the seed of wickid men schal perische.
29 36:29 But iust men schulen enerite the lond; and schulen enabite theronne in to the world of world.
30 36:30 The mouth of a iust man schal bithenke wisdom; and his tunge schal speke doom.
31 36:31 The lawe of his God is in his herte; and hise steppis schulen not be disseyued.
32 36:32 A synnere biholdith a iust man; and sekith to sle hym.
33 36:33 But the Lord schal not forsake hym in hise hondis; nethir schal dampne hym, whanne it schal be demed ayens hym.
34 36:34 Abide thou the Lord, and kepe thou his weie, and he schal enhaunse thee, that bi eritage thou take the lond; whanne synneris schulen perische, thou schalt se.
35 36:35 I siy a wickid man enhaunsid aboue; and reisid vp as the cedris of Liban.
36 36:36 And Y passide, and lo! he was not; Y souyte hym, and his place is not foundun.
37 36:37 Kepe thou innocence, and se equite; for tho ben relikis to a pesible man.
38 36:38 Forsothe vniust men schulen perische; the relifs of wickid men schulen perische togidere.
39 36:39 But the helthe of iust men is of the Lord; and he is her defendere in the tyme of tribulacioun.
40 36:40 And the Lord schal helpe hem, and schal make hem fre, and he schal delyuere hem fro synneris; and he schal saue hem, for thei hopiden in hym.
