Psalms 138

1 [By David.] I will give you thanks, Jehovah, with my whole heart. Before the gods I will sing praises to you.

大卫的诗。 我要一心称谢你， 在诸神面前歌颂你。

2 I will bow down toward your holy temple, and give thanks to your Name for your loving kindness and for your truth; for you have exalted your Name and your word above all.

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 that I called, you answered me. You encouraged me with strength in my soul.

我呼求的日子，你就应允我， 鼓励我，使我心里有能力。

4 All the kings of the earth will give you thanks, Jehovah, for they have heard the words 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 Yes, they will sing of the ways of Jehovah; for great is Jehovah's glory.

他们要歌颂耶和华的作为， 因耶和华大有荣耀。

6 For though Jehovah is high, yet he looks after the lowly; but the proud, he knows 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 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you will revive me. You will stretch forth your hand against the wrath of my enemies. Your right hand will save 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 Jehovah will fulfill that which concerns me; your loving kindness, Jehovah, endures forever. Do not forsake the works of your own hands.

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。
