詩篇 138

1 大衛的詩。 我要一心稱謝你， 在諸神面前歌頌你。

I will praise thee, O lord, with my whole heart: for thou hast heard the words of my mouth. I will sing praise to thee in the sight of his angels:

2 我要向你的聖殿下拜， 為你的慈愛和誠實稱讚你的名； 因你使你的話顯為大， 過於你所應許的。

I will worship towards thy holy temple, and I will give glory to thy name. For thy mercy, and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy holy name above all.

3 我呼求的日子，你就應允我， 鼓勵我，使我心裏有能力。

In what day soever I shall call upon thee, hear me: thou shall multiply strength in my soul.

4 耶和華啊，地上的君王都要稱謝你， 因他們聽見了你口中的言語。

May all the kings of the earth give glory to thee: for they have heard all the words of thy mouth.

5 他們要歌頌耶和華的作為， 因耶和華大有榮耀。

And let them sing in the ways of the Lord: for great is the glory of the Lord.

6 耶和華雖高，仍看顧低微的人； 他卻從遠處看出驕傲的人。

For the Lord is high, and looketh on the low: and the high he knoweth afar off.

7 我雖行在患難中，你必將我救活； 我的仇敵發怒，你必伸手抵擋他們； 你的右手也必救我。

If I shall walk in the midst of tribulation, thou wilt quicken me: and thou hast stretched forth thy hand against the wrath of my enemies: and thy right hand hath saved me.

8 耶和華必成全關乎我的事； 耶和華啊，你的慈愛永遠長存！ 求你不要離棄你手所造的。

The Lord will repay for me: thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever: O despise not the work of thy hands.
