Bowe downe thyne eare, O Lorde, & heare me, for I am poore & in misery. 2 Preserue thou my soule, for I am holy: my God saue thy seruaunt, that putteth his trust in the. 3 Be mercyfull vnto me (O Lorde) for I wyll call dayly vpon the 4 Comforte the soule of thy seruaunt, for vnto the (O Lorde) do I lyft vp my soule. 5 For thou Lord art good and gracious, and of greate mercy vnto all them that call vpon the. 6 Geue eare Lord vnto my prayer, and pondre the voyce of my humble desyres. 7 In the tyme of my trouble I wyll call vpon the, for thou hearest me. 8 Amonge the Goddes there is none lyke vnto the (O Lord) there is not one that can do as thou doest. 9 All nacyons whom thou hast made, shall come and worshyppe the (O Lord) and shall gloryfye thy name. 10 For thou art great, and doest wonderous thynges, thou art God alone. 11 Teach me thy waye, (O Lord) and I will walke in thy trueth: O knytt my hert vnto the, that it maye feare thy name. 12 I wyll thanke the, O Lorde my God with all my hart, and wyll prayse thy name for euer. 13 For great is thy mercy towarde me and thou hast delyuered my soule from the nethermost hell. 14 O God, the proude are rysen agaynst me, and the congregacyons of naughtye men haue sought after my soule, and haue not set the before theyr eyes. 15 But thou, O Lorde God, art full of compassyon, and mercy, longe suffrynge, plenteous in goodnes and trueth. 16 O turne the then vnto me and haue mercy vpon me: geue thy strength vnto thy seruaunt, and helpe the sonne of thyne handmayde. 17 Shewe some token vpon me for good, that they whych hate me, maye se it, and be ashamed, because thou Lord hast helped me, and comforted me.
