Psalms 138

CEB

NRS

1 I give thanks to you with all my heart, LORD. I sing your praise before all other gods.
1 I give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart; before the gods I sing your praise;
2 I bow toward your holy temple and thank your name for your loyal love and faithfulness because you have made your name and word greater than everything else.
2 I bow down toward your holy temple and give thanks to your name for your steadfast love and your faithfulness; for you have exalted your name and your word above everything.
3 On the day I cried out, you answered me. You encouraged me with inner strength.
3 On the day I called, you answered me, you increased my strength of soul.
4 Let all the earth's rulers give thanks to you, LORD, when they hear what you say.
4 All the kings of the earth shall praise you, O Lord, for they have heard the words of your mouth.
5 Let them sing about the LORD's ways because the LORD's glory is so great!
5 They shall sing of the ways of the Lord, for great is the glory of the Lord.
6 Even though the LORD is high, he can still see the lowly, but God keeps his distance from the arrogant.
6 For though the Lord is high, he regards the lowly; but the haughty he perceives from far away.
7 Whenever I am in deep trouble, you make me live again; you send your power against my enemies' wrath; you save me with your strong hand.
7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve me against the wrath of my enemies; you stretch out your hand, and your right hand delivers me.
8 The LORD will do all this for my sake. Your faithful love lasts forever, LORD! Don't let go of what your hands have made.
8 The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands.
