Psalms 113:5-20 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

5. What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou didst flee: and thou, O Jordan, that thou wast turned back?

6. Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams, and ye hills, like lambs of the flock?

7. At the presence of the Lord the earth was moved, at the presence of the God of Jacob:

8. Who turned the rock into pools of water, and the stony hill into fountains of waters.

9. Not to us, O Lord, not to us; but to thy name give glory.

10. For thy mercy, and for thy truth's sake: lest the gentiles should say: Where is their God?

11. But our God is in heaven: he hath done all things whatsoever he would.

12. The idols of the gentiles are silver and gold, the works of the hands of men.

13. They have mouths and speak not: they have eyes and see not.

14. They have ears and hear not: they have noses and smell not.

15. They have hands and feel not: they have feet and walk not: neither shall they cry out through their throat.

16. Let them that make them become like unto them: and all such as trust in them.

17. The house of Israel hath hoped in the Lord: he is their helper and their protector.

18. The house of Aaron hath hoped in the Lord: he is their helper and their protector.

19. They that fear the Lord hath hoped in the Lord: he is their helper and their protector.

20. The Lord hath been mindful of us, and hath blessed us. He hath blessed the house of Israel: he hath blessed the house of Aaron.
