2 Kings 22:26-41 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

26. With the holy one thou wilt be holy: and with the valiant perfect.

27. With the elect thou wilt be elect: and with the perverse thou wilt be perverted.

28. And the poor people thou wilt save: and with thy eyes thou wilt humble the haughty.

29. For thou art my lamp, O Lord: and thou, O Lord, wilt enlighten my darkness.

30. For in thee I will run girded: in my God I will leap over the wall.

31. God, his way is immaculate, the word of the Lord is tried by fire: he is the shield of all that trust in him.

32. Who is God but the Lord: and who is strong but our God?

33. God who hath girded me with strength, and made my way perfect.

34. Making my feet like the feet of harts, and setting me upon my high places.

35. He teacheth my bands to war: and maketh my arms like a bow of brass.

36. Thou hast given me the shield of my salvation: and thy mildness hath multiplied me.

37. Thou shalt enlarge my steps under me: and my ankles shall not fail.

38. I will pursue after my enemies, and crush them: and will not return again till I consume them.

39. I will consume them and break them in pieces, so that they shall not rise: they shall fall under my feet.

40. Thou hast girded me with strength to battle: thou hast made them that resisted me to bow under me.

41. My enemies thou hast made to turn their back to me: them that hated me, and I shall destroy them.
