Psalm 134

Heriað naman drihtenes, neode swylce
herigen hine his scealcas swiðe ealle.
Ge þe on godes huse gleawe standað
and on cafertunum Cristes huses
þæs godan godes gearwe syndan,
Lofiað ge drihten, forþon he lungre is
fæstræd and fremsum fira æghwam;
weorðiað his naman, forþon he wyrðe is.
Forðon him godne geceas Iacob drihten
and on agene æht Israeles cynn.
Ic þæt gearwe ongeat, þæt is god and mycel
drihten ure; forþon him dom standeð
ofer ealle godu eorðbuendra.
Ealle þa þe wolde, worhte drihten
on heofonrice and her on eorðan,
on sidum sæ swylce on eallum,
þær he dyrne wat deorce grundas.
And he fram þysse eorðan ende lædeð
wolcen wræclicu, wind and liget,
and þa to regne recene wyrceð,
þe forð lædeð fægere windas
of his goldhordum godra manegum;
se ægipta sloh æðele frumbearn
æghwylc ealra oð þa nytenu.
He sigetacen sende manegum
forebeacn fæle folce ægipta,
and þa Pharaones folce gecyðde
and his scealcum samed ætgædere.
Se sloh þeode folc þearle manige,
and eac acwealde cyningas strange.
Wæs Seon efne sum þara kynincga,
and Og kyning, se þe æror wæs
on Basane breme and mære.
Sealde heora eardland eall Israhelum
and heora yrfe eac his folce.
Ys þin nama, drihten, nemned ece,
and þin gemynd, mihtig drihten,
on ealra worulda woruld wynnum standeð.
Forþon his folc demeð fægere drihten,
and he bið on his esnum agenum frefriend.
Beoð deofolgyld dysigra þeoda
gold and seolfur, þe her geotað menn,
and mid heora folmum fægere wyrceað.
þa muð habbað, and ne meldiað wiht,
fægere eagan, ne magon feor geseon.
Earan habbað, ne hi awiht magon
holdes gehyran, þeah ðe him hleoðrige,
and nose habbað, nawiht gestincað.
Handa hi habbað, ne hi hwæðere magon
gegrapian godes awiht;
habbað fet swylce, ne magon feala gangan.
Ne hi on hracan awiht hlude ne cleopiað,
ne him gast warað gomum on muðe.
Synt anlice þæm þe hi ær worhtan,
and ealle þa ðe on hi æfre getreowað.
Hus Israela holdne drihten
bletsien bealde, biddan swylce
þæt Aarones hus ecne drihten
bliðe bletsien; beornas ealle,
þa on lifes hus leof eardiað,
bletsien drihten bliðe mode.
þa þe him ondræden drihtnes egsan,
bletsien drihten beornas ealle;
se drihten is deore gebletsad
of Sion sniome, þe soðfæst ær
on Hierusalem god eardode.
Ic andette ecum drihtne,
forðon he god is, and ic ful gearwe wat,
þæt he to worulde byð wis and mildheort.
