Psalms 138

1 A Psalm for David, of Aggaeus and Zacharias. I will give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart; and I will sing psalms to you before the angels; for you have heard all the words of my mouth.

A Psalme of David. I will praise thee with my whole heart: euen before the gods will I praise thee.

2 I will worship toward your holy temple, and give thanks to your name, on account of your mercy and your truth; for you have magnified your holy name above every thing.

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.

3 In whatever day I shall call upon you, hear me speedily; you shall abundantly provide me with your power in my soul.

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

4 Let all the kings of the earth, o Lord, give thanks to you; for they have heard all the words of your mouth.

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

5 And let them sing in the ways of the Lord; for great is the glory of the Lord.

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

6 For the Lord is high, and [yet] regards the lowly; and he knows high things from afar off.

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

7 Though I should walk in the midst of affliction, you will quicken me; you have stretched forth your hands against the wrath of mine enemies, and your right hand has saved me.

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.

8 O Lord, you shall recompense [them] on my behalf: your mercy, O Lord, [endures] for ever: overlook not the works of your hands.

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