Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1When Israel departed from Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,
1I have loved, because the Lord will hear the voice of my prayer.
2Judah became God’s sanctuary, and Israel His dominion.
2Because he hath inclined his ear unto me: and in my days I will call upon him.
3The sea observed and fled; the Jordan turned back;
3The sorrows of death have encompassed me: and the perils of hell have found me. I met with trouble and sorrow:
4the mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.
4And I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, deliver my soul.
5Why was it, O sea, that you fled, O Jordan, that you turned back,
5The Lord is merciful and just, and our God sheweth mercy.
6O mountains, that you skipped like rams, O hills, like lambs?
6The Lord is the keeper of little ones: I was little and he delivered me.
7Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
7Turn, O my soul, into thy rest: for the Lord hath been bountiful to thee.
8who turned the rock into a pool, the flint into a fountain of water!
8For he hath delivered my soul from death: my eyes from tears, my feet from falling.
