Psalms 117:8-16 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

8. It is good to confide in the Lord, rather than to have confidence in man.

9. It is good to trust in the Lord, rather than to trust in princes.

10. All nations compassed me about; and in the name of the Lord I have been revenged on them.

11. Surrounding me they compassed me about: and in the name of the Lord I have been revenged on them.

12. They surrounded me like bees, and they burned like fire among thorns: and in the name of the Lord I was revenged on them

13. Being pushed I was overturned that I might fall: but the Lord supported me.

14. The Lord is my strength and my praise: and he is become my salvation.

15. The voice of rejoicing and of salvation is in the tabernacles of the just.

16. The right hand of the Lord hath wrought strength: the right hand of the Lord hath exulted me: the right hand of the Lord hath wrought strength.
