Psalm 138

₁I will praise thee with my whole heart:

Before the gods will I sing praise unto thee.

₂I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth:

For thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

₃In the day when I cried thou answeredst me,

And strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.

₄All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD,

When they hear the words of thy mouth.

₅Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD:

For great is the glory of the LORD.

₆Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly:

But the proud he knoweth afar off.

₇Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me:

Thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.

₈The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me:

Thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: Forsake not the works of thine own hands.
