| title | 48:1 The title of the eiyte and fourtithe salm. To victorie, a salm to the sones of Chore. |
| 1 | 48:2 Alle ye folkis, here these thingis; alle ye that dwellen in the world, perseyue with eeris. |
| 2 | 48:3 Alle the sones of erthe and the sones of men; togidere the riche man and the pore in to oon. |
| 3 | 48:4 Mi mouth schal speke wisdom; and the thenkyng of myn herte schal speke prudence. |
| 4 | 48:5 I schal bouwe doun myn eere in to a parable; Y schal opene my resoun set forth in a sautree. |
| 5 | 48:6 Whi schal Y drede in the yuel dai? the wickidnesse of myn heele schal cumpasse me. |
| 6 | 48:7 Whiche tristen in her owne vertu; and han glorie in the multitude of her richessis. |
| 7 | 48:8 A brother ayenbieth not, schal a man ayenbie? and he schal not yyue to God his plesyng. |
| 8 | 48:9 And he schal not yyue the prijs of raunsum of his soule; and he schal trauele with outen ende, |
| 9 | 48:10 and he schal lyue yit in to the ende. |
| 10 | 48:11 He schal not se perischyng, whanne he schal se wise men diynge; the vnwise man and fool schulen perische togidere. And thei schulen leeue her richessis to aliens; |
| 11 | 48:12 and the sepulcris of hem ben the housis of hem with outen ende. The tabernaclis of hem ben in generacioun and generacioun; thei clepiden her names in her londis. |
| 12 | 48:13 A man, whanne he was in honour, vndurstood not; he is comparisound to vnwise beestis, and he is maad lijk to tho. |
| 13 | 48:14 This weie of hem is sclaundir to hem; and aftirward thei schulen plese togidere in her mouth. |
| 14 | 48:15 As scheep thei ben set in helle; deth schal gnawe hem. And iust men schulen be lordis of hem in the morewtid; and the helpe of hem schal wexe eld in helle, for the glorie of hem. |
| 15 | 48:16 Netheles God schal ayenbie my soule from the power of helle; whanne he schal take me. |
| 16 | 48:17 Drede thou not, whanne a man is maad riche; and the glorie of his hows is multiplied. |
| 17 | 48:18 For whanne he schal die, he schal not take alle thingis; and his glorie schal not go doun with him. |
| 18 | 48:19 For his soule schal be blessid in his lijf; he schal knouleche to thee, whanne thou hast do wel to hym. |
| 19 | 48:20 He schal entre til in to the generaciouns of hise fadris; and til in to with outen ende he schal not se liyt. |
| 20 | 48:21 A man, whanne he was in honour, vndurstood not; he is comparisound to vnwise beestis, and is maad lijk to tho. |
