Psalms 113 Comparison: Wycliffe Bible (1395) vs KJV with Apocrypha
Psalms 113
1The titil of the hundrid and thrittenthe salm. Alleluya. In the goyng out of Israel fro Egipt; of the hous of Jacob fro the hethene puple.
2Judee was maad the halewyng of hym; Israel the power of hym.
3The see siy, and fledde; Jordan was turned abac.
4Munteyns ful out ioyeden as rammes; and litle hillis as the lambren of scheep.
5Thou see, what was to thee, for thou fleddist; and thou, Jordan, for thou were turned abak?
6Munteyns, ye maden ful out ioye as rammes; and litle hillis, as the lambren of scheep.
7The erthe was moued fro the face of `the Lord; fro the face of God of Jacob.
8Which turnede a stoon in to pondis of watris; and an hard rooch in to wellis of watris.
9Lord, not to vs, not to vs; but yyue thou glorie to thi name.
10On thi merci and thi treuthe; lest ony tyme hethene men seien, Where is the God of hem?
11Forsothe oure God in heuene; dide alle thingis, whiche euere he wolde.
12The symulacris of hethene men ben siluer and gold; the werkis of mennus hondis.
13Tho han mouth, and schulen not speke; tho han iyen, and schulen not se.
14Tho han eeris, and schulen not here; tho han nose thurls, and schulen not smelle.
15Tho han hondis, and schulen not grope; tho han feet, and schulen not go; tho schulen not crye in her throte.
16Thei that maken tho ben maad lijk tho; and alle that triste in tho.
17The hous of Israel hopide in the Lord; he is the helpere `of hem, and the defendere of hem.
18The hous of Aaron hopide in the Lord; he is the helpere of hem, and the defendere of hem.
19Thei that dreden the Lord, hopiden in the Lord; he is the helpere of hem, and the defendere of hem.
20The Lord was myndeful of vs; and blesside vs. He blesside the hous of Israel; he blesside the hous of Aaron.
21He blesside alle men that dreden the Lord; `he blesside litle `men with the grettere.
22The Lord encreesse on you; on you and on youre sones.
23Blessid be ye of the Lord; that made heuene and erthe.
24Heuene of `heuene is to the Lord; but he yaf erthe to the sones of men.
25Lord, not deed men schulen herie thee; nether alle men that goen doun in to helle.
26But we that lyuen, blessen the Lord; fro this tyme now and til in to the world.
Psalms 113
1Praise ye the Lord. Praise, O ye servants of the Lord, praise the name of the Lord.
2Blessed be the name of the Lord from this time forth and for evermore.
3From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the Lord’s name is to be praised.
4The Lord is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.
5Who is like unto the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high,
6Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!
7He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill;
8That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.
9He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the Lord.
