Psalms 17:11-23 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

11. And he ascended upon the cherubim, and he flew; he flew upon the wings of the winds.

12. And he made darkness his covert, his pavilion round about him: dark waters in the clouds of the air.

13. At the brightness that was before him the clouds passed, hail and coals of fire.

14. And the Lord thundered from heaven, and the highest gave his voice: hail and coals of fire.

15. And he sent forth his arrows, and he scattered them: he multiplied lightnings, and troubled them.

16. Then the fountains of waters appeared, and the foundations of the world were discovered: At thy rebuke, O Lord, at the blast of the spirit of thy wrath.

17. He sent from on high, and took me: and received me out of many waters.

18. He delivered me from my strongest enemies, and from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me.

19. They prevented me in the day of my affliction: and the Lord became my protector.

20. And he brought me forth into a large place: he saved me, because he was well pleased with me.

21. And the Lord will reward me according to my justice; and will repay me according to the cleanness of my hands:

22. Because I have kept the ways of the Lord; and have not done wickedly against my God.

23. For till his judgments are in my sight: and his justices I have not put away from me.
