Sealm 19
Dauid sang þysne nigonteoðan sealm, and sæde on ðæm sealme hu his folc him fore gebæde on his earfoðum; and eac Ezechias folc gebæd for hine, þa he wæs beseten mid his feondum on þære byrig; and swa doð ealle Cristene men þe þysne sealm singað: hy hine singað for heora kyningas; and eac þa Apostolas hine sungon be Criste, þa hine man lædde to rode.
1Gehyre ðe Drihten on þæm dæge þinra earfoða.
GefriĂ°ie Ăľe se nama Iacobes Godes,
2and onsende Ăľe fultum of his Ăľam halgan temple,
and of Sion gehæle ðe.
3Gemyndig sy Drihten ealra Ăľinra offrunga,
and þin ælmesse sy andfengu.
4Gylde ðe Drihten æfter ðinum willan,
and eall Ă°in geĂ°eaht he getrymie,
5þæt we moton fægnian on ðinre hælo,
and on ðæm naman Drihtnes ures Godes we syn gemyclade.
Gefylle Drihten eall Ăľin gebedu.
6Nu we ongitað þæt Drihten wile gehælan his þone gesmyredan and ðone gehalgodan,
and he hine gehyrĂ° of his Ăľam halgan heofone;
swiðe mihtig is seo hælo his ðære swyðran handa.
7On rynewænum and on horsum ure fynd fægniað, and þæs gilpað;
we þonne on þæm naman Drihtnes ures Godes us micliað.
8Hy synd nu gebundne, and hi afeollon,
and we soĂ°lice arison and synt uppahafene.
9Drihten, gehæl urne kyning,
and gehyr us on ðæm dæge þe we ðe to clypiað.
