Psalm 53 - Douy-Rheims Bible Challoner Revision1 O God, hear my prayer: give ear to the words of my mouth. 2 For strangers have risen up against me; and the mighty have sought after my soul: and they have not set God before their eyes. 3 For behold God is my helper: and the Lord is the protector of my soul. 4 Turn back the evils upon my enemies; and cut them off in thy truth. 5 I will freely sacrifice to thee, and will give praise, O God, to thy name: because it is good: 6 For thou hast delivered me out of all trouble: and my eye hath looked down upon my enemies. |
