| The Douay-Rheims Version Online Bible (DRV) | ||||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:1 | Unto the end, in verses, understanding for David. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:2 | Hear, O God, my prayer, and despise not my supplication: | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:2 | the same are darts. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:3 | be attentive to me and hear me. I am grieved in my exercise; and am troubled, | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:4 | at the voice of the enemy, and at the tribulation of the sinner. For they have cast iniquities upon me: and in wrath they were troublesome to me. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:5 | My heart is troubled within me: and the fear of death is fallen upon me. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:6 | Fear and trembling are come upon me: and darkness hath covered me. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:7 | And I said: Who will give me wings like a dove, and I will fly and be at rest? | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:8 | Lo, I have gone far off flying away; and I abode in the wilderness. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:9 | I waited for him that hath saved me from pusillanimity of spirit, and a storm. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:10 | Cast down, O Lord, and divide their tongues; for I have seen iniquity and contradiction in the city. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:11 | Day and night shall iniquity surround it upon its walls: and in the midst thereof are labour, | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:12 | and injustice. And usury and deceit have not departed from its streets. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:13 | For if my enemy had reviled me, I would verily have borne with it. And if he that hated me had spoken great things against me, I would perhaps have hidden myself from him. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:14 | But thou a man of one mind, my guide, and my familiar, | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:15 | Who didst take sweetmeats together with me: in the house of God we walked with consent. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:16 | Let death come upon them, and let them go down alive into hell. For there is wickedness in their dwellings: in the midst of them. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:17 | But I have cried to God: and the Lord will save me. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:18 | Evening and morning, and at noon I will speak and declare: and he shall hear my voice. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:19 | He shall redeem my soul in peace from them that draw near to me: for among many they were with me. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:20 | God shall hear, and the Eternal shall humble them. For there is no change with them, and they have not feared God: | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:21 | he hath stretched forth his hand to repay. They have defiled his covenant, | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:22 | they are divided by the wrath Of his countenance, and his heart hath drawn near. His words are smoother than oil, and | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:23 | Cast thy care upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall not suffer the just to waver for ever. | |||||||||||||||
| Psalms 54:24 | But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction. Bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in thee, O Lord. | |||||||||||||||
