Douay-Rheims · Challoner revision

Challoner’s heading

Deus misereatur.

Psalm 66 in the Vulgate numbering this edition follows; Psalm 67 in the Hebrew numbering of most modern Bibles.

1Unto the end, in hymns, a psalm of a canticle for David. 2May God have mercy on us, and bless us: may he cause the light of his countenance to shine upon us, and may he have mercy on us. 3That we may know thy way upon earth: thy salvation in all nations. 4Let people confess to thee, O God: let all people give praise to thee. 5Let the nations be glad and rejoice: for thou judgest the people with justice, and directest the nations upon earth. 6Let the people, O God, confess to thee: let all the people give praise to thee: 7The earth hath yielded her fruit. May God, our God bless us, 8May God bless us: and all the ends of the earth fear him.
Psalm 66 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.
