Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible RHE
New International Version NIV
1 (61-1) <Unto the end, for Idithun, a psalm of David.> (61-2) Shall not my soul be subject to God? for from him is my salvation.
1
Truly my soul finds rest in God; my salvation comes from him.
2 (61-3) For he is my God and my saviour: he is my protector, I shall be moved no more.
2
Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken.
3 (61-4) How long do you rush in upon a man? you all kill, as if you were thrusting down a leaning wall, and a tottering fence.
3
How long will you assault me? Would all of you throw me down— this leaning wall, this tottering fence?
4 (61-5) But they have thought to cast away my price; I ran in thirst: they blessed with their mouth, but cursed with their heart.
4
Surely they intend to topple me from my lofty place; they take delight in lies. With their mouths they bless, but in their hearts they curse.
5 (61-6) But be thou, O my soul, subject to God: for from him is my patience.
5
Yes, my soul, find rest in God; my hope comes from him.
6 (61-7) For he is my God and my saviour: he is my helper, I shall not be moved.
6
Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.
7 (61-8) In God is my salvation and my glory: he is the God of my help, and my hope is in God.
7
My salvation and my honor depend on God ; he is my mighty rock, my refuge.
8 (61-9) Trust in him, all ye congregation of people: pour out your hearts before him. God is our helper for ever.
8
Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.
9 (61-10) But vain are the sons of men, the sons of men are liars in the balances: that by vanity they may together deceive.
9
Surely the lowborn are but a breath, the highborn are but a lie. If weighed on a balance, they are nothing; together they are only a breath.
10 (61-11) Trust not in iniquity, and cover not robberies: if riches abound, set not your heart upon them.
10
Do not trust in extortion or put vain hope in stolen goods; though your riches increase, do not set your heart on them.
11 (61-12) God hath spoken once, these two things have I heard, that power belongeth to God,
11
One thing God has spoken, two things I have heard: “Power belongs to you, God,
12 (61-13) And mercy to thee, O Lord; for thou wilt render to every man according to his works.
12
and with you, Lord, is unfailing love”; and, “You reward everyone according to what they have done.”
