Sealm LIII (54)
1On þinum þam haligan naman, gedo me halne, God;
alys me fram laðum þurh þin leofe mægen.
2God, min gebed gearuwe gehyre,
and earum onfoh min agen word.
3For þam me fremde oft facne gestodon,
sohtan mine sawle swiðe strange,
and na heom God setton gleawne on gesyhðe.
4Efne me þonne God gleawe fultumeð,
is andfengea ece Drihten
sawle minre; he me swican ne wile.
5Afyr me fæcne yfel feonda minra,
and hi soðfæst toweorp syððan wide.
6Ic ðe lustum lace cweme,
and naman þinne niode swylce
geara andette, for ðon ic hine goodne wat.
7For þon þu me alysdest, lifes ealdor,
of earfoðum eallum symble,
ealle mine fynd eagum ofersawe.
