| 1 | 87:2 Lord God of myn helthe; Y criede in dai and nyyt bifore thee. |
| 2 | 87:3 Mi preier entre bifore thi siyt; bowe doun thin eere to my preier. |
| 3 | 87:4 For my soule is fillid with yuels; and my lijf neiyede to helle. |
| 4 | 87:5 I am gessid with hem that goon doun in to the lake; Y am maad as a man with outen help, |
| 5 | 87:6 and fre among deed men. As men woundid slepinge in sepulcris, of whiche men noon is myndeful aftir; and thei ben put awei fro thin hond. |
| 6 | 87:7 Thei han put me in the lower lake; in derke places, and in the schadewe of deth. |
| 7 | 87:8 Thi strong veniaunce is confermed on me; and thou hast brouyt in alle thi wawis on me. |
| 8 | 87:9 Thou hast maad fer fro me my knowun; thei han set me abhomynacioun to hem silf. I am takun, and Y yede not out; |

| 10 | 87:11 Whethir thou schalt do merueils to deed men; ether leechis schulen reise, and thei schulen knouleche to thee? |
| 11 | 87:12 Whether ony man in sepulcre schal telle thi merci; and thi treuthe in perdicioun? |
| 12 | 87:13 Whether thi merueilis schulen be knowun in derknessis; and thi riytfulnesse in the lond of foryetyng? |
| 13 | 87:14 And, Lord, Y criede to thee; and erli my preier schal bifor come to thee. |
| 14 | 87:15 Lord, whi puttist thou awei my preier; turnest awei thi face fro me? |
| 15 | 87:16 I am pore, and in traueils fro my yongthe; sotheli Y am enhaunsid, and Y am maad low, and disturblid. |
| 16 | 87:17 Thi wraththis passiden on me; and thi dredis disturbliden me. |
| 17 | 87:18 Thei cumpassiden me as watir al dai; thei cumpassiden me togidere. |
| 18 | 87:19 Thou madist fer fro me a frend and neiybore; and my knowun fro wretchidnesse. |
