For he dyssembleth before his face, so longe till his abhominable synne be founde out.

The wordes of his mouth are vnrightuousnesse and disceate, he wil not be lerned to do good.

He ymagineth myschefe vpon his bedde, he will come in no good waye, ner refuse the thinge that is euell.

Suffre yet a litle whyle, & ye vngodly shalbe clene gone: thou shalt loke after his place, & he shal be awaye.

The vngodly layeth wayte for the iust, & gna?sheth vpon him wt his tethe.

But ye LORDE laugheth him to scorne, for he seith yt his daye is cominge.

The LORDE ordreth a good mans goinge, & hath pleasure in his waye.

Though he fall, he shal not be hurte, for the LORDE vpholdeth him wt his hade.

I haue bene yonge, & now am olde: yet sawe I neuer the rightuous forsake, ner his sede to seke their bred.

The rightuous is euer mercifull, & ledeth getly, therfore shal his sede be blessed.

For ye LORDE loueth ye thinge yt is right, he forsaketh not his sayntes, but they shal be preserued for euermore:

The mouth of the rightuous is exercised in wy?dome, & his toge talketh of iudgment.

The lawe of his God is in his hert, therfore shal not his fotesteppes slyde.

But the LORDE wil not leaue him in his hodes, ner codemne him when he is iudged.

Hope thou in the LORDE, & kepe his waye: & he shal so promote the, that thou shalt haue the lode by enheritauce, & se, when the vngodly shall perishe.

As for me, I was like a deaf ma, and herde not: and as one that were domme, not openynge his mouth.

I am become as a man that heareth not, and that can make no resistaunce wt his mouth.

When thou punyshest man for synne, thou chastenest him: so that his beutie consumeth awaye, like as it were a mothe. O how vayne are all men?

Blessed is the man that setteth his hope in the LORDE, and turneth not vnto the proude, & to soch as go aboute with lies.

The LORDE shal preserue him, and kepe him alyue: he shal make him to prospere vpon earth, and shal not delyuer him into ye wil of his enemies.
