Psalm 138

1 I will give you thanks with my whole heart. Before the gods, I will sing praises to you.

2 I will bow down toward your holy temple, And give thanks to your Name for your lovingkindness and for your truth; For you have exalted your Name and your Word above all.

3 In the day that I called, you answered me. You encouraged me with strength in my soul.

4 All the kings of the earth will give you thanks, Yahweh, For they have heard the words of your mouth.

5 Yes, they will sing of the ways of Yahweh; For great is Yahweh's glory.

6 For though Yahweh is high, yet he looks after the lowly; But the proud, he knows from afar.

7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you will revive me. You will stretch forth your hand against the wrath of my enemies. Your right hand will save me.

8 Yahweh will fulfill that which concerns me; Your lovingkindness, Yahweh, endures forever. Don't forsake the works of your own hands. Psalm 139 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.
