Psalms 93 Comparison: Wycliffe Bible (1395) vs KJV with Apocrypha
Psalms 93
1The thre and nyntithe salm. God is Lord of veniauncis; God of veniauncis dide freli.
2Be thou enhaunsid that demest the erthe; yelde thou yeldinge to proude men.
3Lord, hou longe synneris; hou longe schulen synneris haue glorie?
4Thei schulen telle out, and schulen speke wickidnesse; alle men schulen speke that worchen vnriytfulnesse.
5Lord, thei han maad lowe thi puple; and thei han disesid thin eritage.
6Thei killiden a widowe and a comelyng; and thei han slayn fadirles children and modirles.
7And thei seiden, The Lord schal not se; and God of Jacob schal not vndurstonde.
8Ye vnwise men in the puple, vndirstonde; and, ye foolis, lerne sum tyme.
9Schal not he here, that plauntide the eere; ethere biholdith not he, that made the iye?
10Schal not he repreue, that chastisith folkis; which techith man kunnyng?
11The Lord knowith the thouytis of men; that tho ben veyne.
12Blessid is the man, whom thou, Lord, hast lerned; and hast tauyt him of thi lawe.
13That thou aswage hym fro yuele daies; til a diche be diggid to the synner.
14For the Lord schal not putte awei his puple; and he schal not forsake his eritage.
15Til riytfulnesse be turned in to dom; and who ben niy it, alle that ben of riytful herte.
16Who schal rise with me ayens mysdoeris; ether who schal stonde with me ayens hem that worchen wickidnesse?
17No but for the Lord helpide me; almest my soule hadde dwellid in helle.
18If Y seide, My foot was stirid; Lord, thi merci helpide me.
19Aftir the multitude of my sorewis in myn herte; thi coumfortis maden glad my soule.
20Whether the seete of wickidnesse cleueth to thee; that makist trauel in comaundement?
21Thei schulen take ayens the soule of a iust man; and thei schulen condempne innocent blood.
22And the Lord was maad to me in to refuyt; and my God was maad in to the help of myn hope.
23And he schal yelde to hem the wickidnesse of hem; and in the malice of hem he schal lese hem, oure Lord God schal lese hem.
Psalms 93
1The Lord reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the Lord is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.
2Thy throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting.
3The floods have lifted up, O Lord, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their waves.
4The Lord on high is mightier than the noise of many waters, yea, than the mighty waves of the sea.
5Thy testimonies are very sure: holiness becometh thine house, O Lord, for ever.
