The Book of Psalms Psalm 129

Douay-Rheims · Challoner revision

Challoner’s heading

De profundis.

Psalm 129 in the Vulgate numbering this edition follows; Psalm 130 in the Hebrew numbering of most modern Bibles.

1A gradual canticle. Out of the depths I have cried to thee, O Lord: 2Lord, hear my voice. Let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication. 3If thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it. 4For with thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of thy law, I have waited for thee, O Lord. My soul hath relied on his word: 5my soul hath hoped in the Lord. 6From the morning watch even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord. 7Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with him plentiful redemption. 8And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
Psalm 129 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.
