Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Give thanks to the LORD, call upon His name; make known His deeds among the nations.
1Alleluia. Give glory to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
2Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; tell of all His wonders.
2Who shall declare the powers of the Lord? who shall set forth all his praises?
3Glory in His holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice.
3Blessed are they that keep judgment, and do justice at all times.
4Seek out the LORD and His strength; seek His face always.
4Remember us, O Lord, in the favour of thy people: visit us with thy salvation.
5Remember the wonders He has done, His marvels, and the judgments He has pronounced,
5That we may see the good of thy chosen, that we may rejoice in the joy of thy nation: that thou mayst be praised with thy inheritance.
6O offspring of His servant Abraham, O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones.
6We have sinned with our fathers: we have acted unjustly, we have wrought iniquity.
7He is the LORD our God; His judgments carry throughout the earth.
7Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt: they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies: And they provoked to wrath going up to the sea, even the Red Sea.
8He remembers His covenant forever, the word He ordained for a thousand generations—
8And he saved them for his own name’s sake: that he might make his power known.
9the covenant He made with Abraham, and the oath He swore to Isaac.
9And he rebuked the Red Sea, and it was dried up: and he led them through the depths, as in a wilderness.
10He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as an everlasting covenant:
10And he saved them from the hand of them that hated them: and he redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11“I will give you the land of Canaan as the portion of your inheritance.”
11And the water covered them that afflicted them: there was not one of them left.
12When they were few in number, few indeed, and strangers in the land,
12And they believed his words: and they sang his praises.
13they wandered from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another.
13They had quickly done, they forgot his works: and they waited not for his counsels.
14He let no man oppress them; He rebuked kings on their behalf:
14And they coveted their desire in the desert: and they tempted God in the place without water.
15“Do not touch My anointed ones! Do no harm to My prophets!”
15And he gave them their request: and sent fulness into their souls.
16He called down famine on the land and cut off all their supplies of food.
16And they provoked Moses in the camp, Aaron the holy one of the Lord.
17He sent a man before them— Joseph, sold as a slave.
17The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan: and covered the congregation of Abiron.
18They bruised his feet with shackles and placed his neck in irons,
18And a fire was kindled in their congregation: the flame burned the wicked.
19until his prediction came true and the word of the LORD proved him right.
19They made also a calf in Horeb: and they adored the graven thing.
20The king sent and released him; the ruler of peoples set him free.
20And they changed their glory into the likeness of a calf that eateth grass.
21He made him master of his household, ruler over all his substance,
21They forgot God, who saved them, who had done great things in Egypt,
22to instruct his princes as he pleased and teach his elders wisdom.
22Wondrous works in the land of Cham: terrible things in the Red Sea.
23Then Israel entered Egypt; Jacob dwelt in the land of Ham.
23And he said that he would destroy them: had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach: To turn away his wrath, lest he should destroy them.
24And the LORD made His people very fruitful, more numerous than their foes,
24And they set at nought the desirable land. They believed not his word,
25whose hearts He turned to hate His people, to conspire against His servants.
25And they murmured in their tents: they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord.
26He sent Moses His servant, and Aaron, whom He had chosen.
26And he lifted up his hand over them: to overthrow them in the desert;
27They performed His miraculous signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
27And to cast down their seed among the nations, and to scatter them in the countries.
28He sent darkness, and it became dark— yet they defied His words.
28They also were initiated to Beelphegor: and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
29He turned their waters to blood and caused their fish to die.
29And they provoked him with their inventions: and destruction was multiplied among them.
30Their land teemed with frogs, even in their royal chambers.
30Then Phinees stood up, and pacified him: and the slaughter ceased.
31He spoke, and insects swarmed— gnats throughout their country.
31And it was reputed to him unto justice, to generation and generation for evermore.
32He gave them hail for rain, with lightning throughout their land.
32They provoked him also at the waters of contradiction: and Moses was afflicted for their sakes:
33He struck their vines and fig trees and shattered the trees of their country.
33Because they exasperated his spirit. And he distinguished with his lips.
34He spoke, and the locusts came— young locusts without number.
34They did not destroy the nations of which the Lord spoke unto them.
35They devoured every plant in their land and consumed the produce of their soil.
35And they were mingled among the heathens, and learned their works:
36Then He struck all the firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their vigor.
36And served their idols, and it became a stumblingblock to them.
37He brought Israel out with silver and gold, and none among His tribes stumbled.
37And they sacrificed their sons, and their daughters to devils.
38Egypt was glad when they departed, for the dread of Israel had fallen on them.
38And they shed innocent blood: the blood of their sons and of their daughters which they sacrificed to the idols of Chanaan. And the land was polluted with blood,
39He spread a cloud as a covering and a fire to light up the night.
39And was defiled with their works: and they went aside after their own inventions.
40They asked, and He brought quail and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
40And the Lord was exceedingly angry with his people: and he abhorred his inheritance.
41He opened a rock, and water gushed out; it flowed like a river in the desert.
41And he delivered them into the hands of the nations: and they that hated them had dominion over them.
42For He remembered His holy promise to Abraham His servant.
42And their enemies afflicted them: and they were humbled under their hands:
43He brought forth His people with rejoicing, His chosen with shouts of joy.
43Many times did he deliver them. But they provoked him with their counsel: and they were brought low by their iniquities.
44He gave them the lands of the nations, that they might inherit the fruit of others’ labor,
44And he saw when they were in tribulation: and he heard their prayer.
45that they might keep His statutes and obey His laws. Hallelujah!
45And he was mindful of his covenant: and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.
