< Psalms 138 >

1 Of David himself. O Lord, I will confess to you with my whole heart, for you have heard the words of my mouth. I will sing psalms to you in the sight of the Angels.
לדוד אודך בכל לבי נגד אלהים אזמרך׃
2 I will adore before your holy temple, and I will confess your name: it is above your mercy and your truth. For you have magnified your holy name above all.
אשתחוה אל היכל קדשך ואודה את שמך על חסדך ועל אמתך כי הגדלת על כל שמך אמרתך׃
3 On whatever day that I will call upon you: hear me. You will multiply virtue in my soul.
ביום קראתי ותענני תרהבני בנפשי עז׃
4 May all the kings of the earth confess to you, O Lord. For they have heard all the words of your mouth.
יודוך יהוה כל מלכי ארץ כי שמעו אמרי פיך׃
5 And let them sing in accordance with the ways of the Lord. For great is the glory of the Lord.
וישירו בדרכי יהוה כי גדול כבוד יהוה׃
6 For the Lord is exalted, and he looks with favor on the humble. But the lofty he knows from a distance.
כי רם יהוה ושפל יראה וגבה ממרחק יידע׃
7 If I wander into the midst of tribulation, you will revive me. For you extended your hand against the wrath of my enemies. And your right hand has accomplished my salvation.
אם אלך בקרב צרה תחיני על אף איבי תשלח ידך ותושיעני ימינך׃
8 The Lord will provide retribution on my behalf. O Lord, your mercy is forever. Do not disdain the works of your hands.
יהוה יגמר בעדי יהוה חסדך לעולם מעשי ידיך אל תרף׃
