Psalms 49:13-21 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

13. Shall I eat the flesh of bullocks? or shall I drink the blood of goats?

14. Offer to God the sacrifice of praise: and pay thy vows to the most High.

15. And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.

16. But to the sinner God hath said: Why dost thou declare my justices, and take my covenant in thy mouth?

17. Seeing thou hast hated discipline: and hast cast my words behind thee.

18. If thou didst see a thief thou didst run with him: and with adulterers thou hast been a partaker.

19. Thy mouth hath abounded with evil, and thy tongue framed deceits.

20. Sitting thou didst speak against thy brother, and didst lay a scandal against thy mother's son:

21. these things hast thou done, and I was silent. Thou thoughtest unjustly that I should be like to thee: but I will reprove thee, and set before thy face.
