Psalm 138

A Psalm of David.

1. I will praise You with my whole heart; before the gods I will sing praise to You.

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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.
