DOUAI-RHEIMSNEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Unto the end, for Idithun, a psalm of David.1 For the leader; al Jeduthun. A psalm of David.
2 Shall not my soul be subject to God? for from him is my salvation.2 My soul rests in God alone, from whom comes my salvation.
3 For he is my God and my saviour: he is my protector, I shall be moved no more.3 God alone is my rock and salvation, my secure height; I shall never fall.
4 How long do you rush in upon a man? you all kill, as if you were thrusting down a leaning wall, and a tottering fence.4 How long will you set upon people, all of you beating them down, As though they were a sagging fence or a battered wall?
5 But they have thought to cast away my price; I ran in thirst: they blessed with their mouth, but cursed with their heart.5 Even from my place on high they plot to dislodge me. They delight in lies; they bless with their mouths, but inwardly they curse. Selah
6 But be thou, O my soul, subject to God: for from him is my patience.6 My soul, be at rest in God alone, from whom comes my hope.
7 For he is my God and my saviour: he is my helper, I shall not be moved.7 God alone is my rock and my salvation, my secure height; I shall not fall.
8 In God is my salvation and my glory: he is the God of my help, and my hope is in God.8 My safety and glory are with God, my strong rock and refuge.
9 Trust in him, all ye congregation of people: pour out your hearts before him. God is our helper for ever.9 Trust God at all times, my people! Pour out your hearts to God our refuge! Selah
10 But vain are the sons of men, the sons of men are liars in the balances: that by vanity they may together deceive.10 Mortals are a mere breath, the powerful but an illusion; On a balance they rise; together they are lighter than air.
11 Trust not in iniquity, and cover not robberies: if riches abound, set not your heart upon them.11 Do not trust in extortion; in plunder put no empty hope. Though wealth increase, do not set your heart upon it.
12 God hath spoken once, these two things have I heard, that power belongeth to God,12 One thing God has said; two things I have heard: Power belongs to God;
13 and mercy to thee, O Lord; for thou wilt render to every man according to his works.13 3) so too, Lord, does kindness, And you render to each of us according to our deeds.
