18 Neah is Drihten niþum eallum þe hine mid soðe hige seceað and ciegað and his willan her wyrceað georne
Wes me swiðe neah, wuldres Drihten; synt ealle þine wegas wise and cuðe.
Eadige beoð swylce, þa þe a wyllað his gewitnesse wise smeagan, and hine mid ealle innancundum heortan hordcofan helpe biddað.
Gehyr, Drihten, min gebed and ongit mine rihtwisnesse, and onfoh mid þinum earum min gebed, for þon þu wast þæt ic butan facne to þe cleopige.
Swiþe neah is Drihten þam þe beoð gedrefede on heora heortum, and þa eaðmodan on heora gaste he gehælð.
Dryhten ys ure gebeorh and ure mægen and ure fultumend on earfoðum þa us swiðe swiðlice oft on becomon.
For þam ne wyrð seo burh næfre onwend, þa hwile þe God byð unonwendedlic on hire midle. God hyre gehealp swyþe ær on morgen.
