Psalms 138

1 A Psalme of David. I will praise thee with my whole heart: euen before the gods will I praise thee.

A Psalm of David. I will give Thee thanks with my whole heart, in the presence of the mighty will I sing praises unto Thee.

2 I will worship toward thine holy Temple and praise thy Name, because of thy louing kindenesse and for thy trueth: for thou hast magnified thy Name aboue all things by thy word.

I will bow down toward Thy holy temple, and give thanks unto Thy name for Thy mercy and for Thy truth; for Thou hast magnified Thy word above all Thy name.

3 When I called, then thou heardest me, and hast encreased strength in my soule.

In the day that I called, Thou didst answer me; Thou didst encourage me in my soul with strength.

4 All the Kings of the earth shall praise thee, O Lord: for they haue heard the wordes of thy mouth.

All the kings of the earth shall give Thee thanks, O LORD, for they have heard the words of Thy mouth.

5 And they shall sing of the wayes of the Lord, because the glory of the Lord is great.

Yea, they shall sing of the ways of the LORD; for great is the glory of the LORD.

6 For the Lord is high: yet he beholdeth the lowly, but the proude he knoweth afarre off.

For though the LORD be high, yet regardeth He the lowly, and the haughty He knoweth from afar.

7 Though I walke in the middes of trouble, yet wilt thou reuiue me: thou wilt stretch foorth thine hand vpon the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall saue me.

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, Thou quickenest me; Thou stretchest forth Thy hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and Thy right hand doth save me.

8 The Lord will performe his worke toward me: O Lord, thy mercie endureth for euer: forsake not the workes of thine handes.

The LORD will accomplish that which concerneth me; Thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever; forsake not the work of Thine own hands.
