Psalms 87:8-17 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

8. Thy wrath is strong over me: and all thy waves thou hast brought in upon me.

9. Thou hast put away my acquaintance far from me: they have set me an abomination to themselves. I was delivered up, and came not forth:

10. my eyes languished through poverty. All the day I cried to thee, O Lord: I stretched out my hands to thee.

11. Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? or shall physicians raise to life, and give praise to thee?

12. Shall any one in the sepulchre declare thy mercy: and thy truth in destruction?

13. Shall thy wonders be known in the dark; and thy justice in the land of forgetfulness?

14. But I, O Lord, have cried to thee: and in the morning my prayer shall prevent thee.

15. Lord, why castest thou off my prayer: why turnest thou away thy face from me?

16. I am poor, and in labours from my youth: and being exalted have been humbled and troubled.

17. Thy wrath hath come upon me: and thy terrors have troubled me.
