9 Eagan me syndon unhale nu geworden for wædle; ic me to wuldres gode þuruh ealne dæg elne clypige and mine handa to þe hebbe and ðenige.
For ðon ic anlic ætt æscean hlafe, and ic minne drinc mengde wið tearum,
Þonne ic mine handa to þe holde þenede and mine sawle sette mid mode, swa eorðan bið ansyn wæteres;
Min heorte is gedrefed and min mod oninnan me, for þæm min mægen and min strengo and min cræft me hæfð forlæten, and þæt leoht and seo scearpnes minra eagena, þe ic ær hæfde, nis nu mid me swa swa ic hy geo hæfde.
Þa þe me hefigiað and mine sawle seceað - hu hy magon yfel don - sprecað idelnesse and smeagað facn ælce dæge.
Me wæran mine tearas for hlafas, ægþer ge on dæg ge on niht, þonne ic gehyrde mine fynd cweþan: “Hwær is þin God þe þu to hopast?”
Gif we ofergeotole wæron Drihtnes naman, ures Godes, and gif we ure handa upphofon to oþrum gode,
Ic on æfenne eac on mergenne and on midne dæg mægene sæcge and bodie þæt þu bliðe me mine stefne stiðe gehyre.
Mine eagan synt gedrefede for yrre and ic eom forealdod betweoh eallum minum feondum.

Þu eart me, Drihten God, dyre hælend; ic on dæge to ðe dygle cleopode, and on niht fore þe neode swylce.
