CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAINDOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Alleluia. I will confess to you, O Lord, with my whole heart, in the council of the just and in the congregation.1 The Lord said to my Lord: Sit thou at my right hand: Until I make thy enemies thy footstool.
2 Great are the works of the Lord, exquisite in all his intentions.2 The Lord will send forth the sceptre of thy power out of Sion: rule thou in the midst of thy enemies.
3 Confession and magnificence are his work. And his justice remains from age to age.3 With thee is the principality in the day of thy strength: in the brightness of the saints: from the womb before the day star I begot thee.
4 He has created a memorial to his wonders; he is a merciful and compassionate Lord.4 The Lord hath sworn, and he will not repent: Thou art a priest for ever according to the order of Melchisedech.
5 He has given food to those who fear him. He will be mindful of his covenant in every age.5 The Lord at thy right hand hath broken kings in the day of his wrath.
6 He will announce the virtue of his works to his people,6 He shall judge among nations, he shall fill ruins: he shall crush the heads in the land of the many.
7 so that he may give them the inheritance of the nations. The works of his hands are truth and judgment.7 He shall drink of the torrent in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head.
8 All his commands are faithful: confirmed from age to age, created in truth and fairness.
9 He has sent redemption upon his people. He has commanded his covenant for all eternity. Holy and terrible is his name.
10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. A good understanding is for all who do it. His praise remains from age to age.
