Old Testament

New Testament

Psalm 88:45-53 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

45. You have torn him away from cleansing, and you have smashed his throne down to the ground.

46. You have reduced the days of his time. You have flooded him with confusion.

47. How long, O Lord? Will you turn away unto the end? Will your wrath flare up like a fire?

48. Remember what my substance is. For could you really have appointed all the sons of men in vain?

49. Who is the man that will live, and yet not see death? Who will rescue his own soul from the hand of the underworld?

50. O Lord, where are your mercies of antiquity, just as you swore to David in your truth?

51. Be mindful, O Lord, of the disgrace of your servants (which I have sustained in my sinews) among many nations.

52. With these, your enemies have reproached you, O Lord; with these, they have reproached the commutation of your Christ.

53. Blessed is the Lord for all eternity. Amen. Amen.
