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 towards thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy loving-kindness 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 me in anima mea virtute

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 terrae quia audierunt omnia verba oris tui

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

et cantent in viis Domini quoniam magna 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 wilt stretch forth thy hand against the wrath of my enemies, and thy right hand will save me.

si ambulavero in medio tribulationis vivificabis me 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 thy own hands.

Dominus retribuet propter me Domine misericordia tua in saeculum opera manuum tuarum ne dispicias
