[A Psalm] of David. I will give thee thanks with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praises unto thee.

2 I will worship toward thine holy Temple and praise thy Name, because of thy louing kindenesse and for thy trueth: for thou hast magnified thy Name aboue all things by thy word.

I will worship toward thy holy temple, and give thanks unto thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

3 When I called, then thou heardest me, and hast encreased strength in my soule.

In the day that I called thou answeredst me, thou didst encourage me with strength in my soul.

4 All the Kings of the earth shall praise thee, O Lord: for they haue heard the wordes of thy mouth.

All the kings of the earth shall give thee thanks, O LORD, for they have heard the words of thy mouth.

5 And they shall sing of the wayes of the Lord, because the glory of the Lord is great.

Yea, they shall sing of the ways of the LORD; for great is the glory of the LORD.

6 For the Lord is high: yet he beholdeth the lowly, but the proude he knoweth afarre off.

For though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the haughty he knoweth from afar.

7 Though I walke in the middes of trouble, yet wilt thou reuiue me: thou wilt stretch foorth thine hand vpon the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall saue me.

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me; thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.

8 The Lord will performe his worke toward me: O Lord, thy mercie endureth for euer: forsake not the workes of thine handes.

The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, [endureth] for ever; forsake not the works of thine own hands.
