Psalms 70:11-22 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

11. Saying: God hath forsaken him: pursue and take him, for there is none to deliver him.

12. O God, be not thou far from me: O my God, make haste to my help.

13. Let them be confounded and come to nothing that detract my soul; let them be covered with confusion and shame that seek my hurt.

14. But I will always hope; and will add to all thy praise.

15. My mouth shall shew forth thy justice; thy salvation all the day long. Because I have not knows learning,

16. I will enter into the powers of the Lord: O Lord, I will be mindful of thy justice alone.

17. Thou hast taught me, O God, from my youth: and till now I will declare thy wonderful works.

18. And unto old age and grey hairs: O God, forsake me not, Until I shew forth thy arm to all the generation that is to come: Thy power,

19. and thy justice, O God, even to the highest great things thou hast done: O God, who is like to thee?

20. How great troubles hast thou shewn me, many and grievous: and turning thou hast brought me to life, and hast brought me back again from the depths of the earth:

21. Thou hast multiplied thy magnificence; and turning to me thou hast comforted me.

22. For I will also confess to thee thy truth with the instruments of psaltery: O God, I will sing to thee with the harp, thou holy one of Israel.
