Psalms 138
|
Of David. I will give you praise with all my heart: I will make melody to you before the gods. | I will give thee thanks with my whole heart: Before the gods will I sing praises unto thee. |
I will give worship before your holy Temple, praising your name for your mercy and for your unchanging faith: for you have made your word greater than all your name. | I will worship toward thy holy temple, And give thanks unto thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: For thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name. |
When my cry came to your ears you gave me an answer, and made me great with strength in my soul. | In the day that I called thou answeredst me, Thou didst encourage me with strength in my soul. |
All the kings of the earth will give you praise, O Lord, when the words of your mouth come to their ears. | All the kings of the earth shall give thee thanks, O Jehovah, For they have heard the words of thy mouth. |
They will make songs about the ways of the Lord; for great is the glory of the Lord. | Yea, they shall sing of the ways of Jehovah; For great is the glory of Jehovah. |
Though the Lord is high, he sees those who are low; and he has knowledge from far off of those who are lifted up. | For though Jehovah is high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly; But the haughty he knoweth from afar. |
Even when trouble is round me, you will give me life; your hand will be stretched out against the wrath of my haters, and your right hand will be my salvation. | Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me; Thou wilt stretch forth thy hand against the wrath of mine enemies, And thy right hand will save me. |
The Lord will make all things complete for me: O Lord, your mercy is eternal; do not give up the works of your hands. | Jehovah will perfect that which concerneth me: Thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, [endureth] for ever; Forsake not the works of thine own hands. Psalm 139 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. |
