Psalm 138
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. I give you thanks, O LORD, with all my heart;
|
|
|
|
I will sing your praises before the gods.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. I bow before your holy Temple as I worship.
|
|
|
|
I praise your name for your unfailing love and faithfulness;
|
|
for your promises are backed
|
|
|
|
by all the honor of your name.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. As soon as I pray, you answer me;
|
|
|
|
you encourage me by giving me strength.
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Every king in all the earth will thank you, LORD,
|
|
|
|
for all of them will hear your words.
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Yes, they will sing about the LORD's ways,
|
|
for the glory of the LORD is very great.
|
|
|
|
6. Though the LORD is great, he cares for the humble,
|
|
|
|
but he keeps his distance from the proud.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. Though I am surrounded by troubles,
|
|
|
|
you will protect me from the anger of my enemies.
|
|
|
|
You reach out your hand,
|
|
|
|
and the power of your right hand saves me.
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. The LORD will work out his plans for my life--
|
|
for your faithful love, O LORD, endures forever.
|
|
|
|
Don't abandon me, for you made me.
