Psalm 17:9Wycliffe's Bible with Modern Spellingfrom the face of unpious men, that have tormented me. Mine enemies have encompassed my soul; See the chapter |
And Saul went and his men at the side of the hill on [the] one part; forsooth David and his men were in the side of the hill on the tother part; soothly David despaired, that he might not escape from the face of Saul. And so Saul and his men compassed by the manner of a crown round about David and his men, that they should take them.
But rather, my father, see thou, and know the hem of thy mantle in mine hand; for when I cutted away the hem off thy mantle, I would not hold forth mine hand against thee; perceive thou, and see, for neither evil neither wickedness is in mine hand, neither I have sinned against thee; but thou ambushest my life, that thou do it away.
