Challoner’s heading

Paratum cor meum.

Psalm 107 in the Vulgate numbering this edition follows; Psalm 108 in the Hebrew numbering of most modern Bibles.

1A canticle of a psalm for David himself. 2My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready: I will sing, and will give praise, with my glory. 3Arise, my glory; arise, psaltery and harp: I will arise in the morning early. 4I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: and I will sing unto thee among the nations. 5For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth even unto the clouds. 6Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory over all the earth: 7That thy beloved may be delivered. Save with thy right hand and hear me. 8God hath spoken in his holiness. I will rejoice, and I will divide Sichem and I will mete out the vale of tabernacles. 9Galaad is mine: and Manasses is mine and Ephraim the protection of my head. Juda is my king: 10Moab the pot of my hope. Over Edom I will stretch out my shoe: the aliens are become my friends. 11Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom? 12Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our armies? 13O grant us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man. 14Through God we shall do mightily: and he will bring our enemies to nothing.
Psalm 107 of 150

Text: the Douay-Rheims Bible in Bishop Challoner’s revision, public domain, from Project Gutenberg ebook 8300, set unaltered — 150 psalms and 2,528 verses, checked for gaps. Challoner’s own notes are left out, as in the gospels; the summary at the head of each psalm is his and is labelled as his. Psalms are numbered as in the Latin Vulgate, which differs by one from the Hebrew numbering of most modern Bibles for most of the book; each psalm gives both.
