Psalm 12 - Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)

12 Unto the end, a psalm for David. How long, O Lord, wilt thou forget me unto the end? how long dost thou turn away thy face from me?

2 How long shall I take counsels in my soul, sorrow in my heart all the day?

3 How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

4 Consider, and hear me, O Lord my God. Enlighten my eyes that I never sleep in death:

5 Lest at any time my enemy say: I have prevailed against him. They that trouble me will rejoice when I am moved:

6 But I have trusted in thy mercy. My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation: I will sing to the Lord, who giveth me good things: yea I will sing to the name of the Lord the most high.
