Quid gloriaris.

Douay-Rheims version.

1	Unto the end, understanding for David,

2	When Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul: David went to the house of Achimelech.

3	Why dost thou glory in malice, thou that art mighty in iniquity?

4	All the day long thy tongue hath devised injustice: as a sharp razor, thou hast wrought deceit.

5	Thou hast loved malice more than goodness: and iniquity rather than to speak righteousness.

6	Thou hast loved all the words of ruin, O deceitful tongue.

7	Therefore will God destroy thee for ever: he will pluck thee out, and remove thee from thy dwelling place: and thy root out of the land of the living.

8	The just shall see and fear, and shall laugh at him, and say:

9	Behold the man that made not God his helper: But trusted in the abundance of his riches: and prevailed in his vanity.

10	But I, as a fruitful olive tree in the house of God, have hoped in the mercy of God for ever, yea for ever and ever.

11	I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done it: and I will wait on thy name, for it is good in the sight of thy saints.
