Psalms 138
138
By David.
1I confess Thee, with all my heart, Before the gods I do praise Thee.
2I bow myself toward Thy holy temple, And I confess Thy name, For Thy kindness, and for Thy truth, For Thou hast made great Thy saying above all Thy name.
3In the day I called, when Thou dost answer me, Thou dost strengthen me in my soul [with] strength.
4O Jehovah, all kings of earth confess Thee, When they have heard the sayings of Thy mouth.
5And they sing in the ways of Jehovah, For great [is] the honour of Jehovah.
6For high [is] Jehovah, and the lowly He seeth, And the haughty from afar He knoweth.
7If I walk in the midst of distress Thou quickenest me, Against the anger of mine enemies Thou sendest forth Thy hand, And Thy right hand doth save me.
8 Jehovah doth perfect for me, O Jehovah, Thy kindness [is] to the age, The works of Thy hands let not fall!
