Psalms 138

1 BY DAVID. I confess You with all my heart, I praise You before the gods.

大卫的诗。 我要一心称谢你， 在诸神面前歌颂你。

2 I bow myself toward Your holy temple, And I confess Your Name, For Your kindness, and for Your truth, For You have made Your saying great above all Your Name.

我要向你的圣殿下拜， 为你的慈爱和诚实称赞你的名； 因你使你的话显为大， 过于你所应许的。

3 In the day I called, when You answer me, You strengthen me in my soul [with] strength.

我呼求的日子，你就应允我， 鼓励我，使我心里有能力。

4 O YHWH, all kings of earth confess You, When they have heard the sayings of Your mouth.

耶和华啊，地上的君王都要称谢你， 因他们听见了你口中的言语。

5 And they sing in the ways of YHWH, For the glory of YHWH [is] great.

他们要歌颂耶和华的作为， 因耶和华大有荣耀。

6 For YHWH [is] high, and He sees the lowly, And He knows the haughty from afar.

耶和华虽高，仍看顾低微的人； 他却从远处看出骄傲的人。

7 If I walk in the midst of distress You quicken me, You send forth Your hand against the anger of my enemies, And Your right hand saves me.

我虽行在患难中，你必将我救活； 我的仇敌发怒，你必伸手抵挡他们； 你的右手也必救我。

8 YHWH perfects for me, O YHWH, Your kindness [is] for all time, Do not let the works of Your hands fall!

耶和华必成全关乎我的事； 耶和华啊，你的慈爱永远长存！ 求你不要离弃你手所造的。
