Psalms 138
1 I will
praise thee with my whole
heart: before the
gods will I sing
praise unto thee.
2 I will
worship toward thy
holy temple, and
praise thy
name for thy
lovingkindness and for thy
truth: for thou hast
magnified thy
word above all thy
name. 3 In the
day when I
cried thou
answeredst me, and
strengthenedst me with
strength in my
soul. 4 All the
kings of the
earth shall
praise thee, O
LORD, when they
hear the
words of thy
mouth. 5 Yea, they shall
sing in the
ways of the
LORD: for
great is the
glory of the
LORD. 6 Though the
LORD be
high, yet hath he
respect unto the
lowly: but the
proud he
knoweth afar
off. 7 Though I
walk in the
midst of
trouble, thou wilt
revive me: thou shalt stretch
forth thine
hand against the
wrath of mine
enemies, and thy right
hand shall
save me.
8 The
LORD will
perfect that which concerneth me: thy
mercy, O
LORD, endureth for
ever: forsake not the
works of thine own
hands.
