26TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME (YEAR B)

PSALM 18

Response:
The precepts of the Lord gladden the heart.

Verse 1:
The law of the Lord is perfect,
it revives the soul.
The rule of the Lord is to be trusted,
it gives wisdom to the simple.

Verse 2:
The fear of the Lord is holy,
abiding for ever,
the decrees of the Lord are truth
and all of them just.

Verse 3:
So in them your servant finds instruction;
great reward is in their keeping.
But who can detect all his errors?
From hidden faults acquit me.

Verse 4:
From presumption restrain your servant
and let it not rule me.
Then shall I be blameless,
clean from grave sin.
