Douay-Rheims · Challoner revision

Challoner’s heading

Domine, ne in furore.

1Unto the end, in verses, a psalm for David, for the octave. 2O Lord, rebuke me not in thy indignation, nor chastise me in thy wrath. 3Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am weak: heal me, O Lord, for my bones are troubled. 4And my soul is troubled exceedingly: but thou, O Lord, how long? 5Turn to me, O Lord, and deliver my soul: O save me for thy mercy's sake. 6For there is no one in death, that is mindful of thee: and who shall confess to thee in hell? 7I have laboured in my groanings, every night I will wash my bed: I will water my couch with my tears. 8My eye is troubled through indignation: I have grown old amongst all my enemies. 9Depart from em, all ye workers of iniquity: for the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping. 10The Lord hath heard my supplication: the Lord hath received my prayer. 11Let all my enemies be ashamed, and be very much troubled: let them be turned back, and be ashamed very speedily.
Psalm 6 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.
