Psalms 138

1Of David. I praise You with all my heart. In the presence of the mighty I will sing praises to You.

2I bow down toward Your holy Temple and praise Your Name for Your love and Your faithfulness. For You—magnified above all Your Name and Your word.

3On the day I called, You answered me. You made me bold with strength in my soul.

4All the kings of the earth will praise You, Adonai, when they hear Your mouth’s speech.

5So they will sing of the ways of Adonai, for great is the glory of Adonai.

6For though Adonai is exalted, yet He looks upon the lowly, but the haughty He knows from afar.

7Though I walk amid trouble, You revive me. You stretch out Your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and Your right hand delivers me.

8Adonai will fulfill His purpose for me. Your lovingkindness, Adonai, endures forever. Do not abandon the work of Your hands.
