Psalms 138

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 By David: I give you thanks with all my heart. Not to idols, but to you I sing praise.

2 I bow down toward your holy temple and give thanks to your name for your grace and truth; for you have made your word [even] greater than the whole of your reputation.

3 When I called, you answered me, you made me bold and strong.

4 All the kings of the earth will thank you, ADONAI, when they hear the words you have spoken.

5 They will sing about ADONAI's ways, "Great is the glory of ADONAI!"

6 For though ADONAI is high, he cares for the lowly; while the proud he perceives from afar.

7 You keep me alive when surrounded by danger; you put out your hand when my enemies rage; with your right hand you save me.

8 ADONAI will fulfill his purpose for me. Your grace, ADONAI, continues forever. Don't abandon the work of your hands!

The Message Bible MSG

1 Thank you! Everything in me says "Thank you!" Angels listen as I sing my thanks.

2 I kneel in worship facing your holy temple and say it again: "Thank you!" Thank you for your love, thank you for your faithfulness; Most holy is your name, most holy is your Word.

3 The moment I called out, you stepped in; you made my life large with strength.

4 When they hear what you have to say, God, all earth's kings will say "Thank you."

5 They'll sing of what you've done: "How great the glory of God!"

6 And here's why: God, high above, sees far below; no matter the distance, he knows everything about us.

7 When I walk into the thick of trouble, keep me alive in the angry turmoil. With one hand strike my foes, With your other hand save me.

8 Finish what you started in me, God. Your love is eternal - don't quit on me now.
