Psalms 138

1 A Psalm of David. I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise to thee.

Ipsi David. Confitebor tibi, Domine, in toto corde meo, quoniam audisti verba oris mei. In conspectu angelorum psallam tibi;

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

adorabo ad templum sanctum tuum, et confitebor nomini tuo: super misericordia tua et veritate tua; quoniam magnificasti super omne, nomen sanctum tuum.

3 In the day when I cried thou didst answer me, and strengthen me with strength in my soul.

In quacumque die invocavero te, exaudi me; multiplicabis in anima mea virtutem.

4 All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear the words of thy mouth.

Confiteantur tibi, Domine, omnes reges terræ, quia audierunt omnia verba oris tui.

5 Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory of the LORD.

Et cantent in viis Domini, quoniam magna est gloria Domini;

6 Though the LORD is high, yet hath he respect to the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off.

quoniam excelsus Dominus, et humilia respicit, et alta a longe cognoscit.

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

Si ambulavero in medio tribulationis, vivificabis me; et super iram inimicorum meorum extendisti manum tuam, et salvum me fecit dextera tua.

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

Dominus retribuet pro me. Domine, misericordia tua in sæculum; opera manuum tuarum ne despicias.
