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 me in anima mea virtute

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 terrae 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 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 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 propter me Domine misericordia tua in saeculum opera manuum tuarum ne dispicias
