## Psalm 100 (Catholic Public Domain Version)

1. A Psalm of David himself. I will sing mercy and judgment to you, O Lord. I will sing psalms.
2. And I will have understanding within the immaculate way, when you will draw near to me. I wandered about in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house.
3. I will not display any unjust thing before my eyes. I have hated those carrying out betrayals.
4. The perverse heart did not adhere to me. And the malignant, who turned away before me, I would not recognize.
5. The one who secretly detracted his neighbor, this one I pursued. The one with an arrogant eye and an insatiable heart, with that one I would not eat.
6. My eyes looked toward the faithful of the earth, to sit with me. The one walking in the immaculate way, this one ministered to me.
7. He who has acted arrogantly will not dwell in the midst of my house. He who has spoken iniquity was not guided with the sight of my eyes.
8. In the morning, I executed all the sinners of the earth, so that I might scatter all the workers of iniquity from the city of the Lord.

## Psalm 100 in Latin (Clementine Vulgate, 1592)

1. Psalmus ipsi David. Misericordiam et judicium cantabo tibi, Domine; psallam,
2. et intelligam in via immaculata: quando venies ad me? Perambulabam in innocentia cordis mei, in medio domus meæ.
3. Non proponebam ante oculos meos rem injustam; facientes prævaricationes odivi; non adhæsit mihi
4. cor pravum; declinantem a me malignum non cognoscebam.
5. Detrahentem secreto proximo suo, hunc persequebar: superbo oculo, et insatiabili corde, cum hoc non edebam.
6. Oculi mei ad fideles terræ, ut sedeant mecum; ambulans in via immaculata, hic mihi ministrabat.
7. Non habitabit in medio domus meæ qui facit superbiam; qui loquitur iniqua non direxit in conspectu oculorum meorum.
8. In matutino interficiebam omnes peccatores terræ, ut disperderem de civitate Domini omnes operantes iniquitatem.

## Bishop Challoner's notes

Bp. Richard Challoner, notes on the Douay-Rheims (1750); they comment on its older wording.
- Verse 2: That is, I will apply my mind, I will do my endeavour, to know and to follow the perfect way of thy commandments: not trusting to my own strength, but relying on thy coming to me by thy grace.
