16:15. But as for me, I will appear before thy sight in justice: I shall
be satisfied when thy glory shall appear.

Psalms Chapter 17

Diligam te, Domine.

David's thanks to God for his delivery from all his enemies.

17:1. Unto the end, for David, the servant of the Lord, who spoke to the
Lord the words of this canticle, in the day that the Lord delivered him
from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul: and he
said:

17:2. I will love thee, O Lord, my strength:

17:3. The Lord is my firmament, my refuge, and my deliverer. My God is
my helper, and in him will I put my trust. My protector, and the horn of
my salvation, and my support.

17:4. Praising, I will call upon the Lord: and I shall be saved from my
enemies.

17:5. The sorrows of death surrounded me: and the torrents of iniquity
troubled me.

17:6. The sorrows of hell encompassed me: and the snares of death
prevented me.

17:7. In my affliction I called upon the Lord, and I cried to my God:
And he heard my voice from his holy temple: and my cry before him came
into his ears.

17:8. The earth shook and trembled: the foundations of the mountains
were troubled and were moved, because he was angry with them.

17:9. There went up a smoke in his wrath: and a fire flamed from his
face: coals were kindled by it.

17:10. He bowed the heavens, and came down, and darkness was under his
feet.

17:11. And he ascended upon the cherubim, and he flew; he flew upon the
wings of the winds.

17:12. And he made darkness his covert, his pavilion round about him:
dark waters in the clouds of the air.

17:13. At the brightness that was before him the clouds passed, hail and
coals of fire.

17:14. And the Lord thundered from heaven, and the Highest gave his
voice: hail and coals of fire.

17:15. And he sent forth his arrows, and he scattered them: he
multiplied lightnings, and troubled them.

17:16. Then the fountains of waters appeared, and the foundations of the
world were discovered: At thy rebuke, O Lord, at the blast of the spirit
of thy wrath.

17:17. He sent from on high, and took me: and received me out of many
waters.

17:18. He delivered me from my strongest enemies, and from them that
hated me: for they were too strong for me.

17:19. They prevented me in the day of my affliction: and the Lord
became my rotector.

17:20. And he brought me forth into a large place: he saved me, because
he was well pleased with me.

17:21. And the Lord will reward me according to my justice; and will
repay me according to the cleanness of my hands:

17:22. Because I have kept the ways of the Lord; and have not done
wickedly against my God.

17:23. For all his judgments are in my sight: and his justices I have
not put away from me.
