< Psalms 138 >
1 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:
ipsi David confitebor tibi Domine in toto corde meo quoniam audisti verba oris mei in conspectu angelorum psallam tibi
2 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.
adorabo ad templum sanctum tuum et confitebor nomini tuo super misericordia tua et veritate tua quoniam magnificasti super omne nomen sanctum tuum
3 In what day soever I shall call upon thee, hear me: thou shall multiply strength in my soul.
in quacumque die invocavero te exaudi me multiplicabis me in anima mea virtute
4 May all the kings of the earth give glory to thee: for they have heard all the words of thy mouth.
confiteantur tibi Domine omnes reges terrae quia audierunt omnia verba oris tui
5 And let them sing in the ways of the Lord: for great is the glory of the Lord.
et cantent in viis Domini quoniam magna gloria Domini
6 For the Lord is high, and looketh on the low: and the high he knoweth afar off.
quoniam excelsus Dominus et humilia respicit et alta a longe cognoscit
7 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.
si ambulavero in medio tribulationis vivificabis me super iram inimicorum meorum extendisti manum tuam et salvum me fecit dextera tua
8 The Lord will repay for me: thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever: O despise not the work of thy hands.
Dominus retribuet propter me Domine misericordia tua in saeculum opera manuum tuarum ne dispicias
