Psalms 138

DBY

NIV

1 {[A Psalm] of David.} I will give thee thanks with my whole heart; before the gods will I sing psalms of thee.
1 I will praise you, LORD, with all my heart; before the “gods” I will sing your praise.
2 I will bow down toward the temple of thy holiness, and celebrate thy name for thy loving-kindness and for thy truth; for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.
2 I will bow down toward your holy temple and will praise your name for your unfailing love and your faithfulness, for you have so exalted your solemn decree that it surpasses your fame.
3 In the day when I called thou answeredst me; thou didst encourage me with strength in my soul.
3 When I called, you answered me; you greatly emboldened me.
4 All the kings of the earth shall celebrate thee, Jehovah, when they have heard the words of thy mouth;
4 May all the kings of the earth praise you, LORD, when they hear what you have decreed.
5 And they shall sing in the ways of Jehovah, for great is the glory of Jehovah.
5 May they sing of the ways of the LORD, for the glory of the LORD is great.
6 For Jehovah is high; but he looketh upon the lowly, and the proud he knoweth afar off.
6 Though the LORD is exalted, he looks kindly on the lowly; though lofty, he sees them from afar.
7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou wilt stretch forth thy hand against the anger of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.
7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life. You stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes; with your right hand you save me.
8 Jehovah will perfect what concerneth me: thy loving-kindness, O Jehovah, [endureth] for ever; forsake not the works of thine own hands.
8 The LORD will vindicate me; your love, LORD, endures forever— do not abandon the works of your hands.
