Psalms 100 Comparison: Douay-Rheims vs King James Version
Psalms 100
1A psalm for David himself. Mercy and judgment I will sing to thee, O Lord: I will sing,
2And I will understand in the unspotted way, when thou shalt come to me. I walked in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house.
3I will not set before my eyes any unjust thing: I hated the workers of iniquities.
4The perverse heart did not cleave to me: and the malignant, that turned aside from me, I would not know.
5The man that in private detracted his neighbour, him did I persecute. With him that had a proud eye, and an unsatiable heart, I would not eat.
6My eyes were upon the faithful of the earth, to sit with me: the man that walked in the perfect way, he served me.
7He that worketh pride shall not dwell in the midst of my house: he that speaketh unjust things did not prosper before my eyes.
8In the morning I put to death all the wicked of the land: that I might cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of the Lord.
Psalms 100
1Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands.
2Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing.
3Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
4Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
5For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.
