Psalms 64

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Unto the end. A Psalm of David. A Canticle of Jeremiah and Ezekiel to the people of the captivity, when they began to go into exile.	1 Unto the end, a psalm for David.
2 O God, a hymn adorns you in Zion, and a vow will be repaid to you in Jerusalem.	2 Hear, O God, my prayer, when I make supplication to thee : deliver my soul from the fear of the enemy.
3 Hear my prayer: all flesh will come to you.	3 Thou hast protected me from the assembly of the malignant; from the multitude of the workers of iniquity.
4 Words of iniquity have prevailed over us. And you will pardon our impieties.	4 For they have whetted their tongues like a sword; they have bent their bow a bitter thing,
5 Blessed is he whom you have chosen and taken up. He will dwell in your courts. We will be filled with the good things of your house. Holy is your temple:	5 to shoot in secret the undefiled.
6 wonderful in equity. Hear us, O God our Savior, the hope of all the ends of the earth and of a sea far away.	6 They will shoot at him on a sudden, and will not fear: they are resolute in wickedness. They have talked of hiding snares; they have said: Who shall see them?
7 You prepare the mountains in your virtue, wrapped with power.	7 They have searched after iniquities: they have failed in their search. Man shall come to a deep heart:
8 You stir up the depths of the sea, the noise of its waves. The nations will be troubled,	8 and God shall be exalted. The arrows of children are their wounds:
9 and those who dwell at the limits will be afraid, before your signs. You will make the passing of morning and evening enjoyable.	9 and their tongues against them are made weak. All that saw them were troubled;
10 You have visited the earth, and you have saturated it. You have enriched it in so many ways. The river of God has been filled with water. You have prepared their food. For thus is its preparation.	10 and every man was afraid. And they declared the works of God: and understood his doings.
11 Drench its streams, multiply its fruits; it will spring up and rejoice in its showers.	11 The just shall rejoice in the Lord, and shall hope in him: and all the upright in heart shall be praised.
12 You will bless the crown of the year with your kindness, and your fields will be filled with abundance.
13 The beauty of the desert will fatten, and the hills will be wrapped with exultation.
14 The rams of the sheep have been clothed, and the valleys will abound with grain. They will cry out; yes, they will even utter a hymn.
