Psalm 89:46-52

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁴⁶ How long, O Lord? Wilt thou hide thyself for ever?
    How long will thy wrath burn like fire?
⁴⁷ Remember, O Lord,^[a] what the measure of life is,
    for what vanity thou hast created all the sons of men!
⁴⁸ What man can live and never see death?
    Who can deliver his soul from the power of Sheol?Selah

⁴⁹ Lord, where is thy steadfast love of old,
    which by thy faithfulness thou didst swear to David?
⁵⁰ Remember, O Lord, how thy servant is scorned;
    how I bear in my bosom the insults^[b] of the peoples,
⁵¹ with which thy enemies taunt, O Lord,
    with which they mock the footsteps of thy anointed.

⁵² Blessed be the Lord for ever!
Amen and Amen.
