Psalms 134 Comparison: Wycliffe Bible (1395) vs KJV with Apocrypha
Psalms 134
1The title of the hundrid and foure and thrittithe salm. Alleluya. Herie ye the name of the Lord; ye seruauntis of the Lord, herie ye.
2Ye that stonden in the hous of the Lord; in the hallis of `the hous of oure God.
3Herie ye the Lord, for the Lord is good; singe ye to his name, for it is swete.
4For the Lord chees Jacob to him silf; Israel in to possessioun to him silf.
5For Y haue knowe, that the Lord is greet; and oure God bifore alle goddis.
6The Lord made alle thingis, what euere thingis he wolde, in heuene and in erthe; in the see, and in alle depthis of watris.
7He ledde out cloudis fro the ferthest part of erthe; and made leitis in to reyn. Which bringith forth wyndis fro hise tresours;
8which killide the firste gendrid thingis of Egipt, fro man `til to beeste.
9He sente out signes and grete wondris, in the myddil of thee, thou Egipt; in to Farao and in to alle hise seruauntis.
10Which smoot many folkis; and killide stronge kingis.
11Seon, the king of Ammorreis, and Og, the king of Basan; and alle the rewmes of Chanaan.
12And he yaf the lond of hem eritage; eritage to Israel, his puple.
13Lord, thi name is with outen ende; Lord, thi memorial be in generacioun and in to generacioun.
14For the Lord schal deme his puple; and he schal be preied in hise seruauntis.
15The symulacris of hethene men ben siluer and gold; the werkis of the hondis of men.
16Tho han a mouth, and schulen not speke; tho han iyen, and schulen not se.
17Tho han eeris, and schulen not here; for `nether spirit is in the mouth of tho.
18Thei that maken tho, be maad lijk tho; and alle that tristen in tho.
19The hous of Israel, blesse ye the Lord; the hous of Aaron, blesse ye the Lord.
20The hous of Leuy, blesse ye the Lord; ye that dreden the Lord, `blesse ye the Lord.
21Blessid be the Lord of Syon; that dwellith in Jerusalem.
Psalms 134
1Behold, bless ye the Lord, all ye servants of the Lord, which by night stand in the house of the Lord.
2Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the Lord.
3The Lord that made heaven and earth bless thee out of Zion.
