Sealm VI
Dauid sang þysne syxtan sealm be his mettrumnesse and be his earfoðum, and eac be þam ege þæs domes on Domesdæge; and swa deð ælc þæra þe hine singð; and swa dyde Crist, þa he on eorðan wæs, he hine sang be his earfoðum; and eac Ezechias be his untrumnesse.
1Drihten, ne Ăľrea Ăľu me on Ăľinum yrre,
ne on Ăľinre hatheortnesse ne swenc me.
2Ac miltsa me, Dryhten, for Ăľam ic eom unhal;
and gehæl me for þam eall min mægn
and eal min ban synt gebrytt and gedrefed,
3and min sawl and min mod ys swyĂ°e gedrefed.
Eala, Drihten, hu lange wylt þu þæt hit on ðam sy?
4Gehwyrf la, Drihten, to me and alys mine sawle,
and gedo me halne for Ă°inre mildheornesse.
5For Ă°am Ăľa deadan Ăľe on helle beoĂ°, Ăľin ne gemunan,
ne Ă°e andetaĂ° ne ne heriaĂ°, swa swa we doĂ°.
6Ic swince on minre granunge,
and ælce niht on minum bedde ic sice and wepe,
and hwilum min bedd wæte mid tearum.
7Mine eagan synt gedrefede for yrre
and ic eom forealdod betweoh eallum minum feondum.
8GewitaĂ° fram me ealle Ăľa Ăľe unriht wyrcaĂ°,
for Ă°am Ăľe Drihten hyrde mine wependan stefne,
9and God gehyrde mine healsunge,
and Drihten onfeng min gebed.
10Sceamian heora for Ă°i and syn gedrefede ealle mine fynd,
and gan hy on earsling, and sceamien heora swiðe hrædlice.
