138:1 A Psalm of David. I give thee thanks, O LORD, with my whole heart; before the gods I sing thy praise; |
138:2 I bow down toward thy holy temple and give thanks to thy name for thy steadfast love and thy faithfulness; for thou hast exalted above everything thy name and thy word. |
138:3 On the day I called, thou didst answer me, my strength of soul thou didst increase. |
138:4 All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, for they have heard the words of thy mouth; |
138:5 and they shall sing of the ways of the LORD, for great is the glory of the LORD. |
138:6 For though the LORD is high, he regards the lowly; but the haughty he knows from afar. |
138:7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou dost preserve my life; thou dost stretch out thy hand against the wrath of my enemies, and thy right hand delivers me. |
138:8 The LORD will fulfil his purpose for me; thy steadfast love, O LORD, endures for ever. Do not |
