The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 21: Psalms: The Challoner Revision
Bible. Psalms
75:10. When God arose in judgment, to save all the meek of the earth.
75:11. For the thought of man shall give praise to thee: and the
remainders of the thought shall keep holiday to thee.
75:12. Vow ye, and pay to the Lord your God: all you that are round
about him bring presents. To him that is terrible,
75:13. Even to him who taketh away the spirit of princes: to the
terrible with the kings of the earth.
Psalms Chapter 76
Voce mea.
The faithful have recourse to God in trouble of mind, with confidence in
his mercy and power.
76:1. Unto the end, for Idithun, a psalm of Asaph.
76:2. I cried to the Lord with my voice; to God with my voice, and he
gave ear to me.
76:3. In the days of my trouble I sought God, with my hands lifted up to
him in the night, and I was not deceived. My soul refused to be
comforted:
76:4. I remembered God, and was delighted, and was exercised, and my
spirit swooned away.
76:5. My eyes prevented the watches: I was troubled, and I spoke not.
76:6. I thought upon the days of old: and I had in my mind the eternal
years.
76:7. And I meditated in the night with my own heart: and I was
exercised and I swept my spirit.
76:8. Will God then cast off for ever? or will he never be more
favourable again?
76:9. Or will he cut off his mercy for ever, from generation to
generation?
76:10. Or will God forget to shew mercy? or will he in his anger shut up
his mercies?
76:11. And I said, Now have I begun: this is the change of the right
hand of the most High.
76:12. I remembered the works of the Lord: for I will be mindful of thy
wonders from the beginning.
76:13. And I will meditate on all thy works: and will be employed in thy
inventions.
76:14. Thy way, O God, is in the holy place: who is the great God like
our God?
76:15. Thou art the God that dost wonders. Thou hast made thy power
known among the nations:
76:16. With thy arm thou hast redeemed thy people the children of Jacob
and of Joseph.
76:17. The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee: and they were
afraid, and the depths were troubled.
76:18. Great was the noise of the waters: the clouds sent out a sound.
For thy arrows pass:
76:19. The voice of thy thunder in a wheel. Thy lightnings enlightened
the world: the earth shook and trembled.
76:20. Thy way is in the sea, and thy paths in many waters: and thy
footsteps shall not be known.
76:21. Thou hast conducted thy people like sheep, by the hand of Moses
and Aaron.
Psalms Chapter 77
Attendite.
God's great benefits to the people of Israel, notwithstanding their
ingratitude.
77:1. Understanding for Asaph. Attend, O my people, to my law: incline
your ears to the words of my mouth.
77:2. I will open my mouth in parables: I will utter propositions from
the beginning.
