Psalms 138

1 A psalm of David. I thank you with my whole being; I sing your praises before the heavenly beings.

Alabarte he con todo mi corazón: delante de los dioses te cantaré salmos.

2 I bow down before your holy Temple, and I am thankful because of who you are—for your trustworthy love and faithfulness—and for the fact that your promises are even greater than what people expect of you.

Encorvarme he al templo de tu santidad, y alabaré tu nombre sobre tu misericordia y tu verdad; porque has hecho magnífico tu nombre, y tu palabra sobre todas las cosas.

3 On the day I cried out to you for help, you answered me. You encouraged me and made me strong.

El día que te llamé, me respondiste, esforzásteme, y diste en mi alma fortaleza.

4 All the kings of the earth will praise you, Lord, for they have heard what you have said.

Confesarte han, o! Jehová, todos los reyes de la tierra; porque oyeron las palabras de tu boca.

5 They will sing about what the Lord has done and about the great glory of the Lord.

Y cantarán en los caminos de Jehová: que la gloria de Jehová es grande.

6 Though the Lord is high above, he pays attention to the lowly; but he recognizes the proud a long way off.

Porque el alto Jehová mira al humilde, y al altivo conoce de lejos.

7 Even though I walk into a great deal of trouble, you protect me. You reach out to defend me from the anger of those who hate me—your strong hand saves me.

Si anduviere por medio de la angustia, me vivificarás: contra la ira de mis enemigos extenderás tu mano, y tu diestra me salvará.

8 The Lord vindicates me! Lord, your trustworthy love lasts forever! Don't give up on what you have made!

Jehová cumplirá por mí, Jehová, tu misericordia es para siempre; no dejarás la obra de tus manos.
