Psalm, 138

Of David.

¹ I will praise you with all my heart. In the face of other gods, I will sing praises.^*1

² I will bow down toward your holy temple,^*1 And I will praise your name Because of your loyal love and your faithfulness. For you have magnified your saying and your name above everything else.^*2

³ On the day I called, you answered me; You made me bold^*1 and strong.

⁴ All the kings of the earth will praise you, O Jehovah, For they will have heard the promises you have spoken.

⁵ They will sing about the ways of Jehovah, For the glory of Jehovah is great.

⁶ Though Jehovah is high, he takes note of the humble, But the haughty he knows only from a distance.

⁷ Even when I walk in the midst of danger, you will preserve me alive. You stretch out your hand against the anger of my enemies; Your right hand will save me.

⁸ Jehovah will accomplish all things in my behalf. O Jehovah, your loyal love endures forever; Do not forsake the works of your hands.
