Psalm 138:1–8
1 I will give You thanks with all my heart; i
I will sing Your praise before the heavenly beings. j k
2 I will bow down toward Your holy temple
and give thanks to Your name
for Your constant love and truth.
You have exalted Your name
and Your promise above everything else. l
3 On the day I called, You answered me;
You increased strength within me. m n
4 All the kings on earth will give You thanks, Lord,
when they hear what You have promised. o p
5 They will sing of the Lord’s ways,
for the Lord’s glory is great. q
He takes note of the humble;
but He knows the haughty from a distance. r
7 If I walk into the thick of danger,
You will preserve my life
from the anger of my enemies. s
You will extend Your hand;
Your right hand will save me. t
8 The Lord will fulfill His purpose for me. u
Lord, Your love is eternal;
do not abandon the work of Your hands. v
