| 1 | 43:2 God, we herden with oure eeris; oure fadris telden to vs. The werk, which thou wrouytist in the daies of hem; and in elde daies. |
| 2 | 43:3 Thin hond lost hethene men, and thou plauntidist hem; thou turmentidist puplis, and castidist hem out. |
| 3 | 43:4 For the children of Israel weldiden the lond not bi her swerd; and the arm of hem sauyde not hem. But thi riyt hond, and thin arm, and the liytnyng of thi cheer; for thou were plesid in hem. |
| 4 | 43:5 Thou art thi silf, my kyng and my God; that sendist helthis to Jacob. |
| 5 | 43:6 Bi thee we schulen wyndewe oure enemyes with horn; and in thi name we schulen dispise hem, that risen ayen vs. |
| 6 | 43:7 For Y schal not hope in my bouwe; and my swerd schal not saue me. |
| 7 | 43:8 For thou hast saued vs fro men turmentinge vs; and thou hast schent men hatinge vs. |
| 8 | 43:9 We schulen be preisid in God al dai; and in thi name we schulen knouleche to thee in to the world. |
| 9 | 43:10 But now thou hast put vs abac, and hast schent vs; and thou, God, schalt not go out in oure vertues. |
| 10 | 43:11 Thou hast turned vs awei bihynde aftir oure enemyes; and thei, that hatiden vs, rauyschiden dyuerseli to hem silf. |
| 11 | 43:12 Thou hast youe vs as scheep of meetis; and among hethene men thou hast scaterid vs. |
| 12 | 43:13 Thou hast seeld thi puple with out prijs; and multitude was not in the chaungyngis of hem. |
| 13 | 43:14 Thou hast set vs schenschip to oure neiyboris; mouwyng and scorn to hem that ben in oure cumpas. |
| 14 | 43:15 Thou hast set vs into licnesse to hethene me; stiryng of heed among puplis. |
| 15 | 43:16 Al dai my schame is ayens me; and the schenschipe of my face hilide me. |
| 16 | 43:17 Fro the vois of dispisere, and yuele spekere; fro the face of enemy, and pursuere. |
| 17 | 43:18 Alle these thingis camen on vs, and we han not foryete thee; and we diden not wickidli in thi testament. |
| 18 | 43:19 And oure herte yede not awei bihynde; and thou hast bowid awei oure pathis fro thi weie. |
| 19 | 43:20 For thou hast maad vs lowe in the place of turment; and the schadewe of deth hilide vs. |
| 20 | 43:21 If we foryaten the name of oure God; and if we helden forth oure hondis to an alien God. |
| 21 | 43:22 Whether God schal not seke these thingis? for he knowith the hid thingis of herte. For whi we ben slayn al dai for thee; we ben demed as scheep of sleyng. |

| 23 | 43:23 Lord, rise vp, whi slepist thou? rise vp, and putte not awei in to the ende. |
| 24 | 43:24 Whi turnest thou awei thi face? thou foryetist oure pouert, and oure tribulacioun. |
| 25 | 43:25 For oure lijf is maad low in dust; oure wombe is glued togidere in the erthe. |
| 26 | 43:26 Lord, rise vp thou, and helpe vs; and ayenbie vs for thi name. |
