138:1  

  • A Psalm of David. I will praise You with my whole heart; before the gods I will sing praise to You.
  • 138:2  I will worship toward Your holy temple, and praise Your name for Your lovingkindness, and for Your truth; for You have magnified above all—Your name and Your word.

    138:3  In the day when I cried, You answered me and made me bold with strength in my soul.

    138:4  All the kings of the earth shall praise You, O LORD, when they hear the words of Your mouth.

    138:5  Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD, for great is the glory of the LORD.

    138:6  Though the LORD is high, yet He has respect to the lowly; but the haughty He knows afar off.

    138:7  Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me; You shall stretch forth Your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and Your right hand shall save me.

    138:8  The LORD will perfect His work in me; Your steadfast love, O LORD, endures forever; do not forsake the work of Your own hands.
