Douay-Rheims: Psalm 18:8-11 (Psalm 19 at Mass)

⁸The law of the Lord is unspotted, converting souls: the testimony of the Lord is faithful, giving wisdom to little ones. ⁹The justices of the Lord are right, rejoicing hearts: the commandment of the Lord is lightsome, enlightening the eyes. ¹⁰The fear of the Lord is holy, enduring for ever and ever: the judgments of the Lord are true, justified in themselves. ¹¹More to be desired than gold and many precious stones: and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.

Douay-Rheims: Mark 11:27-33

²⁷And they come again to Jerusalem. And when he was walking in the temple, there come to him the chief priests and the scribes and the ancients, ²⁸And they say to him: By what authority dost thou these things? and who hath given thee this authority that thou shouldst do these things? ²⁹And Jesus answering, said to them: I will also ask you one word, and answer you me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things. ³⁰The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men? Answer me. ³¹But they thought with themselves, saying: If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did you not believe him? ³²If we say, From men, we fear the people. For all men counted John that he was a prophet indeed. ³³And they answering, say to Jesus: We know not. And Jesus answering, saith to them: Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
