| Chapter 138 |
1 | I will give you thanks with my whole heart. Before the gods, I will sing praises to you. |
2 | I will bow down toward your holy temple, And give thanks to your Name for your lovingkindness and for your truth; For you have exalted your Name and your Word above all. |
3 | In the day that I called, you answered me. You encouraged me with strength in my soul. |
4 | All the kings of the earth will give you thanks, Yahweh, For they have heard the words of your mouth. |
5 | Yes, they will sing of the ways of Yahweh; For great is Yahweh's glory. |
6 | For though Yahweh is high, yet he looks after the lowly; But the proud, he knows from afar. |
7 | Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you will revive me. You will stretch forth your hand against the wrath of my enemies. Your right hand will save me. |
8 | Yahweh will fulfill that which concerns me; Your lovingkindness, Yahweh, endures forever. Don't forsake the works of your own hands. Psalm 139 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. |
