King James Version with Apocrypha
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1I will praise thee , O LORD , with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.
1Unto the end, for the hidden things of the Son. A psalm for David.
2I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High.
2I will give praise to thee, O Lord, with my whole heart: I will relate all thy wonders.
3When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy presence.
3I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing to thy name, O thou most high.
4For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou satest in the throne judging right.
4When my enemy shall be turned back: they shall be weakened and perish before thy face.
5Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.
5For thou hast maintained my judgment and my cause: thou hast sat on the throne, who judgest justice.
6O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and thou hast destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them.
6Thou hast rebuked the Gentiles, and the wicked one hath perished: thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever.
7But the LORD shall endure for ever: he hath prepared his throne for judgment.
7The swords of the enemy have failed unto the end: and their cities thou hast destroyed. Their memory hath perished with a noise.
8And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.
8But the Lord remaineth for ever. He hath prepared his throne in judgment:
9The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
9And he shall judge the world in equity, he shall judge the people in justice.
10And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD , hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
10And the Lord is become a refuge for the poor: a helper in due time in tribulation.
11Sing praises to the LORD , which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings.
11And let them trust in thee who know thy name: for thou hast not forsaken them that seek thee, O Lord.
12When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them: he forgetteth not the cry of the humble.
12Sing ye to the Lord, who dwelleth in Sion: declare his ways among the Gentiles:
13Have mercy upon me, O LORD ; consider my trouble which I suffer of them that hate me, thou that liftest me up from the gates of death:
13For requiring their blood he hath remembered the: he hath not forgotten the cry of the poor.
14That I may shew forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation.
14Have mercy on me, O Lord: see my humiliation which I suffer from my enemies.
15The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.
15Thou that liftest me up from the gates of death, that I may declare all thy praises in the gates of the daughter of Sion.
16The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.
16I will rejoice in thy salvation: the Gentiles have stuck fast in the destruction which they have prepared. Their foot hath been taken in the very snare which they hid.
17The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.
17The Lord shall be known when he executeth judgments: the sinner hath been caught in the works of his own hands.
18For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever.
18The wicked shall be turned into hell, all the nations that forget God.
19Arise, O LORD ; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy sight.
19For the poor man shall not be forgotten to the end: the patience of the poor shall not perish for ever.
20Put them in fear, O LORD : that the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah.
20Arise, O Lord, let not man be strengthened: let the Gentiles be judged in thy sight.
