King James Version with ApocryphaTranslation
King James Version with Apocrypha
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.
1Unto the end, understanding for the sons of Core.
2The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.
2As the hart panteth after the fountains of water; so my soul panteth after thee, O God.
3The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness.
3My soul hath thirsted after the strong living God; when shall I come and appear before the face of God?
4I said, LORD , be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.
4My tears have been any bread day and night, whilst it is said to me daily: Where is thy God?
5Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?
5These things I remembered, and poured out my soul in me: for I shall go over into the place of the wonderful tabernacle, even to the house of God: With the voice of joy and praise; the noise of one feasting.
6And if he come to see me , he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he telleth it .
6Why art thou sad, O my soul? and why dost thou trouble me? Hope in God, for I will still give praise to him: the salvation of my countenance,
7All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt.
7And my God. My soul is troubled within myself: therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan and Hermoniim, from the little hill.
8An evil disease, say they , cleaveth fast unto him: and now that he lieth he shall rise up no more.
8Deep calleth on deep, at the noise of thy flood-gates. All thy heights and thy billows have passed over me.
9Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.
9In the daytime the Lord hath commanded his mercy; and a canticle to him in the night. With me is prayer to the God of my life.
10But thou, O LORD , be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.
10I will say to God: Thou art my support. Why hast thou forgotten me? and why go I mourning, whilst my enemy afflicteth me?
11By this I know that thou favourest me, because mine enemy doth not triumph over me.
11Whilst my bones are broken, my enemies who trouble me have reproached me; Whilst they say to me day be day: Where is thy God?
12And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before thy face for ever.
12Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why dost thou disquiet me? Hope thou in God, for I will still give praise to him: the salvation of my countenance, and my God.
13Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.
