Psalms 18:4-15 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

4. There are no speeches nor languages, where their voices are not heard.

5. Their sound hath gone forth into all the earth: and their words unto the ends of the world.

6. He hath set his tabernacle in the sun: and he, as a bridegroom coming out of his bride chamber, Hath rejoiced as a giant to run the way:

7. His going out is from the end of heaven, And his circuit even to the end thereof: and there is no one that can hide himself from his heat.

8. The law of the Lord is unspotted, converting souls: the testimony of the Lord is faithful, giving wisdom to little ones.

9. The justices of the Lord are right, rejoicing hearts: the commandment of the Lord is lightsome, enlightening the eyes.

10. The fear of the Lord is holy, enduring for ever and ever: the judgments of the Lord are true, justified in themselves.

11. More to be desired than gold and many precious stones: and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.

12. For thy servant keepeth them, and in keeping them there is a great reward.

13. Who can understand sins? from my secret ones cleanse me, O Lord:

14. and from those of others spare thy servant. If they shall have no dominion over me, then shall I be without spot: and I shall be cleansed from the greatest sin.

15. And the words of my mouth shall be such as may please: and the meditation of my heart always in thy sight. O Lord, my helper, and my redeemer.
