Psalms 71:7-17 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

7. In his days shall justice spring up, and abundance of peace, till the moon be taken sway.

8. And he shall rule from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth.

9. Before him the Ethiopians shall fall down: and his enemies shall lick the ground.

10. The kings of Tharsis and the islands shall offer presents: the kings of the Arabians and of Saba shall bring gifts:

11. And all kings of the earth shall adore him: all nations shall serve him.

12. For he shall deliver the poor from the mighty: and the needy that had no helper.

13. He shall spare the poor and needy: and he shall save the souls of the poor.

14. He shall redeem their souls from usuries and iniquity: and their names shall be honourable in his sight.

15. And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Arabia, for him they shall always adore: they shall bless him all the day.

16. And there shall be a firmament on the earth on the tops of mountains, above Libanus shall the fruit thereof be exalted: and they of the city shall flourish like the grass of the earth.

17. Let his name be blessed for evermore: his name continueth before the sun. And in him shall all the tribes of the earth be blessed: all nations shall magnify him.
