Psalms 138

1 Of David. I give You thanks with all my heart; before the gods I sing Your praises.

Ipsi David. [Confitebor tibi, Domine, in toto corde meo, quoniam audisti verba oris mei. In conspectu angelorum psallam tibi;

2 I bow down toward Your holy temple and give thanks to Your name for Your loving devotion and Your faithfulness; You have exalted Your name and Your word above all else.

adorabo ad templum sanctum tuum, et confitebor nomini tuo: super misericordia tua et veritate tua; quoniam magnificasti super omne, nomen sanctum tuum.

3 On the day I called, You answered me; You emboldened me and strengthened my soul.

In quacumque die invocavero te, exaudi me; multiplicabis in anima mea virtutem.

4 All the kings of the earth will give You thanks, O LORD, when they hear the words of Your mouth.

Confiteantur tibi, Domine, omnes reges terræ, quia audierunt omnia verba oris tui.

5 They will sing of the ways of the LORD, for the glory of the LORD is great.

Et cantent in viis Domini, quoniam magna est gloria Domini;

6 Though the LORD is on high, He attends to the lowly; but the proud He knows from afar.

quoniam excelsus Dominus, et humilia respicit, et alta a longe cognoscit.

7 If I walk in the midst of trouble, You preserve me from the anger of my foes; You extend Your hand, and Your right hand saves me.

Si ambulavero in medio tribulationis, vivificabis me; et super iram inimicorum meorum extendisti manum tuam, et salvum me fecit dextera tua.

8 The LORD will fulfill His purpose for me. O LORD, Your loving devotion endures forever— do not abandon the works of Your hands.

Dominus retribuet pro me. Domine, misericordia tua in sæculum; opera manuum tuarum ne despicias.]
