The Paris Psalter: Psalm 74
Verse Indeterminate Saxon


We þe andettað,      ecne drihten,
and þe andettað      ealle þeoda
and naman þinne      neode ciegen.
Ic þin wundur eall      wræclic sæcge,

5

swa ic fæstlicast mæg      befon wordum,
and eac soð      symble deme.
Eorðe is gemolten      and hire eardend mid;
ic þonne hire swyre      symble getrymme.
Ic to yflum cwæð      oft nalæs seldan:

10

"Nelle ge unriht      ænig fremman
and agyltan, þæt hi      ne gulpan þæs.
Ne ahebbað ge to hea      eowre hygeþancas,
ne ge wið gode æfre      gramword sprecan."
Forþon eastan ne cymeð      gumena ænig,

15

ne of westwegum      wera cneorissa,
ne of þissum westum      widum morum;
forþon him is dema      drihten sylfa.
Sumne he gehyneð,      sumne ahefeð sniome;
forþon se wines steap      on waldendes handa

20

fægere gefylled is;      þæs onfehð þe he ann.
þonne he of þysum on þæt      þonne oncerreð,
nyle he þa dærstan him      don unbryce;
forþam sculon ealle      drincan synfulle,
þa on þysse foldan      fyrene wyrceað;

25

ic þonne worulde gefean      wynnum healde,
and Iacobes gode      georne singe.
Ealra fyrenfulra      fyhtehornas
ic bealdlice      gebrece sniome;
swyþe beoð ahafene      þa soðfæstan.
