Psalms 138

1 Of David. I will give you praise with all my heart: I will make melody to you before the gods.

大卫的诗。 我要一心称谢你， 在诸神面前歌颂你。

2 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.

我要向你的圣殿下拜， 为你的慈爱和诚实称赞你的名； 因你使你的话显为大， 过于你所应许的。

3 When my cry came to your ears you gave me an answer, and made me great with strength in my soul.

我呼求的日子，你就应允我， 鼓励我，使我心里有能力。

4 All the kings of the earth will give you praise, O Lord, when the words of your mouth come to their ears.

耶和华啊，地上的君王都要称谢你， 因他们听见了你口中的言语。

5 They will make songs about the ways of the Lord; for great is the glory of the Lord.

他们要歌颂耶和华的作为， 因耶和华大有荣耀。

6 Though the Lord is high, he sees those who are low; and he has knowledge from far off of those who are lifted up.

耶和华虽高，仍看顾低微的人； 他却从远处看出骄傲的人。

7 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.

我虽行在患难中，你必将我救活； 我的仇敌发怒，你必伸手抵挡他们； 你的右手也必救我。

8 The Lord will make all things complete for me: O Lord, your mercy is eternal; do not give up the works of your hands.

耶和华必成全关乎我的事； 耶和华啊，你的慈爱永远长存！ 求你不要离弃你手所造的。
