Challoner’s heading

Afferte Domino.

Psalm 28 in the Vulgate numbering this edition follows; Psalm 29 in the Hebrew numbering of most modern Bibles.

1A psalm for David, at the finishing of the tabernacle. Bring to the Lord, O ye children of God: bring to the Lord the offspring of rams. 2Bring to the Lord glory and honour: bring to the Lord glory to his name: adore ye the Lord in his holy court. 3The voice of the Lord is upon the waters; the God of majesty hath thundered, The Lord is upon many waters. 4The voice of the Lord is in power; the voice of the Lord in magnificence. 5The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedars: yea, the Lord shall break the cedars of Libanus. 6And shall reduce them to pieces, as a calf of Libanus, and as the beloved son of unicorns. 7The voice of the Lord divideth the flame of fire: 8The voice of the Lord shaketh the desert: and the Lord shall shake the desert of Cades. 9The voice of the Lord prepareth the stags: and he will discover the thick woods: and in his temple all shall speak his glory. 10The Lord maketh the flood to dwell: and the Lord shall sit king for ever. The Lord will give strength to his people: the Lord will bless his people with peace.
Psalm 28 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.
