| Vers | English: Douay-Rheims | English: King James Version |
| 1 | A psalm for Asaph. God hath stood in the congregation of gods: and being in the midst of them he judgeth gods. | Sing aloud unto God our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob. |
| 2 | How long will you judge unjustly: and accept the persons of the wicked? | Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel, the pleasant harp with the psaltery. |
| 3 | Judge for the needy and fatherless: do justice to the humble and the poor. | Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day. |
| 4 | Rescue the poor; and deliver the needy out of the hand of the sinner. | For this was a statute for Israel, and a law of the God of Jacob. |
| 5 | They have not known nor understood: they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be moved. | This he ordained in Joseph for a testimony, when he went out through the land of Egypt: where I heard a language that I understood not. |
| 6 | I have said: You are gods and all of you the sons of the most High. | I removed his shoulder from the burden: his hands were delivered from the pots. |
| 7 | But you like men shall die: and shall fall like one of the princes. | Thou calledst in trouble, and I delivered thee; I answered thee in the secret place of thunder: I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. Selah. |
| 8 | Arise, O God, judge thou the earth: for thou shalt inherit among all the nations. | Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken unto me; |
| 9 | There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any strange god. | |
| 10 | I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it. | |
| 11 | But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me. | |
| 12 | So I gave them up unto their own hearts' lust: and they walked in their own counsels. | |
| 13 | Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, and Israel had walked in my ways! | |
| 14 | I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against their adversaries. | |
| 15 | The haters of the LORD should have submitted themselves unto him: but their time should have endured for ever. | |
| 16 | He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee. |
