Sealm 1 - Anglo-Saxon Psalms c.890-950 AD


The Prose Psalms of King Alfred (ca. 890-899 AD) Selames 1—50 Sealm I

1 Eadig byð se wer þe ne gæð on geþeaht unrihtwisra, ne on þam wege ne stent synfulra, ne on heora wolbærendum setle ne sitt;

2 ac his willa byð on Godes æ, and ymb his æ he byð smeagende dæges and nihtes.

3 Him byð swa þam treowe þe byð aplantod neah wætera rynum, þæt sylð his wæstmas to rihtre tide; and his leaf and his blæda ne fealwiað ne ne seariað. Swa byð þam men þe we ær ymbspræcon: eall him cymð to gōde þæt þæt he deð.

4 Ac þa unrihtwisan ne beoð na swylce, ne him eac swa ne limpð; ac hi beoð duste gelicran þonne hit wind toblæwð.

5 Þy ne arisað þa unrihtwisan on Domesdæg, ne þa synfullan ne beoð on geþeahte þæra rihtwisena,

6 for þam God wat hwylce weg þa rihtwisan geearnedon, ac þa unrihtwisan cumað to witum.

The first 50 psalms are credited to King Alfred the Great and were written in c.890-899 AD, and the last 100 psalms were translated c.900-950 AD by an unknown poet.
