Psalms 72:19-27 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

19. How are they brought to desolation? they have suddenly ceased to be: they have perished by reason of their iniquity.

20. As the dream of them that awake, O Lord; so in thy city thou shalt bring their image to nothing.

21. For my heart hath been inflamed, and my reins have been changed:

22. and I am brought to nothing, and I knew not.

23. I am become as a beast before thee: and I am always with thee.

24. Thou hast held me by my right hand; and by thy will thou hast conducted me, and with thy glory thou hast received me.

25. For what have I in heaven? and besides thee what do I desire upon earth?

26. For thee my flesh and my heart hath fainted away: thou art the God of my heart, and the God that is my portion for ever.

27. For behold they that go far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that are disloyal to thee.
