Douay-Rheims Bible

3 I am worn out calling for help;

my throat is parched.

My eyes fail,

looking for my God.

4 Those who hate me without reason

outnumber the hairs of my head;

many are my enemies without cause,

those who seek to destroy me.

I am forced to restore

what I did not steal.

5 You, God, know my folly;

my guilt is not hidden from you.

6 Lord, the Lord Almighty,

may those who hope in you

not be disgraced because of me;

God of Israel,

may those who seek you

not be put to shame because of me.

3 I am weary with my crying out;

my throat is parched.

My eyes grow dim

with waiting for my God.

4 More in number than the hairs of my head

are those who hate me without cause;

mighty are those who would destroy me,

those who attack me with lies.

What I did not steal

must I now restore?

5 O God, you know my folly;

the wrongs I have done are not hidden from you.

6 Let not those who hope in you be put to shame through me,

O Lord God of hosts;

let not those who seek you be brought to dishonor through me,

O God of Israel.

3 I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried:

Mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.

4 They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head:

They that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty:

Then I restored that which I took not away.

5 O God, thou knowest my foolishness;

And my sins are not hid from thee.

6 Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord God of hosts, be ashamed for my sake:

Let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.

3 I am exhausted from crying for help;

my throat is parched.

My eyes are swollen with weeping,

waiting for my God to help me.

4 Those who hate me without cause

outnumber the hairs on my head.

Many enemies try to destroy me with lies,

demanding that I give back what I didn’t steal.

5 O God, you know how foolish I am;

my sins cannot be hidden from you.

6 Don’t let those who trust in you be ashamed because of me,

O Sovereign Lord of Heaven’s Armies.

Don’t let me cause them to be humiliated,

O God of Israel.

3 I am weary with my crying;

My throat is dry;

My eyes fail while I wait for my God.

4 Those who hate me without a cause

Are more than the hairs of my head;

They are mighty who would destroy me,

Being my enemies wrongfully;

Though I have stolen nothing,

I still must restore it.

5 O God, You know my foolishness;

And my sins are not hidden from You.

6 Let not those who wait for You, O Lord God of hosts, be ashamed because of me;

Let not those who seek You be confounded because of me, O God of Israel.

3 I am tired from calling for help;

my throat is sore.

My eyes are tired from waiting

for God to help me.

4 There are more people who hate me for no reason than hairs on my head;

powerful enemies want to destroy me for no reason.

They make me pay back

what I did not steal.

5 God, you know what I have done wrong;

I cannot hide my guilt from you.

6 Lord God All-Powerful,

do not let those who hope in you be ashamed because of me.

God of Israel,

do not let your worshipers be disgraced because of me.

3 I am weary with my crying; my throat is dried:

Mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.

4 They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head:

They that would cut me off, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty:

That which I took not away I have to restore.

5 O God, thou knowest my foolishness;

And my sins are not hid from thee.

6 Let not them that wait for thee be put to shame through me, O Lord Jehovah of hosts:

Let not those that seek thee be brought to dishonor through me, O God of Israel.

3 I am weary with my crying, my throat is parched; mine eyes fail while I wait for my God. 4 They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away. 5 Thou, O God, knowest my foolishness, and my trespasses are not hidden from thee. 6 Let not them that wait on thee, Lord, Jehovah of hosts, be ashamed through me; let not those that seek thee be confounded through me, O God of Israel.

3 I am exhausted from crying for help. 

My throat is hoarse. 

My eyes are strained ⸤from⸥ looking for my God. 

4 Those who hate me for no reason 

outnumber the hairs on my head. 

Those who want to destroy me are mighty. 

They have no reason to be my enemies. 

I am forced to pay back what I did not steal. 

5 O God, you know my stupidity, 

and the things of which I am guilty are not hidden from you. 

6 Do not let those who wait with hope for you 

be put to shame because of me, O Almighty Lord of Armies. 

Do not let those who come to you for help 

be humiliated because of me, O God of Israel. 

3 I am weary from my crying;

my throat is parched.

My eyes fail, looking for my God.

4 Those who hate me without cause

are more numerous than the hairs of my head;

my deceitful enemies, who would destroy me,

are powerful.

Though I did not steal, I must repay.

5 God, You know my foolishness,

and my guilty acts are not hidden from You.

6 Do not let those who put their hope in You

be disgraced because of me,

Lord God of Hosts;

do not let those who seek You

be humiliated because of me,

God of Israel.

3 I am weary with my crying;

my throat is parched.

My eyes grow dim

with waiting for my God.

4 More in number than the hairs of my head

are those who hate me without cause;

many are those who would destroy me,

my enemies who accuse me falsely.

What I did not steal,

must I now restore?

5 O God, you know my folly;

the wrongs I have done are not hidden from you.

6 Do not let those who hope in you be put to shame because of me,

O Lord God of hosts;

do not let those who seek you be dishonored because of me,

O God of Israel.

3 I am weary with my calling out; my throat is parched.

My eyes are exhausted in my waiting for my God.

4 More numerous than the hairs of my head

are those hating me without a cause.

Those who are destroying me—my enemies wrongfully— are mighty.

What I did not steal, I then must restore.

5 O God, you yourself know my foolishness,

and my guilty deeds are not hidden from you.

6 Let those who wait for you not be put to shame because of me,

O Lord Yahweh of hosts.

Let those who seek you not be disgraced because of me,

O God of Israel.

3 I’m worn out from calling for help.

My throat is very dry.

My eyes grow tired

looking for my God.

4 Those who hate me without any reason

are more than the hairs on my head.

Many people who don’t have any reason to be my enemies

are trying to destroy me.

They force me to give back

what I didn’t steal.

5 God, you know how foolish I’ve been.

My guilt is not hidden from you.

6 Lord, you are the Lord who rules over all.

May those who put their hope in you not be dishonored because of me.

You are the God of Israel.

May those who worship you not be put to shame because of me.

3 I am weary with my crying; my throat is parched;

My eyes fail while I wait for my God.

4 Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head;

Those who would destroy me are powerful, being wrongfully my enemies;

What I did not steal, I then have to restore.

5 O God, it is You who knows my folly,

And my wrongs are not hidden from You.

6 May those who wait for You not be ashamed through me, O Lord God of hosts;

May those who seek You not be dishonored through me, O God of Israel,
