Psalms 26:5-13 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

5. For he hath hidden me in his tabernacle; in the day of evils, he hath protected me in the secret place of his tabernacle.

6. He hath exalted me upon a rock: and now he hath lifted up my head above my enemies. I have gone round, and have offered up in his tabernacle a sacrifice of jubilation: I will sing, and recite a psalm to the Lord.

7. Hear, O Lord, my voice, with which I have cried to thee: have mercy on me and hear me.

8. My heart hath said to thee: My face hath sought thee: thy face, O Lord, will I still seek.

9. Turn not away thy face from me; decline not in thy wrath from thy servant. Be thou my helper, forsake me not; do not thou despise me, O God my Saviour.

10. For my father and my mother have left me: but the Lord hath taken me up.

11. Set me, O Lord, a law in thy way, and guide me in the right path, because of my enemies.

12. Deliver me not over to the will of them that trouble me; for unjust witnesses have risen up against me; and iniquity hath lied to itself.

13. I believe to see the good things of the Lord in the land of the living.
