Psalmorum 138

1 David. Confitebor tibi Domine in toto corde meo: quoniam audisti verba oris mei. In conspectu angelorum psallam tibi:

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

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

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.

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

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

4 Confiteantur tibi Domine omnes reges terrae: quia audierunt omnia verba oris tui:

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

5 Et cantent in viis Domini: quoniam magna est gloria Domini.

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

6 Quoniam excelsus Dominus, et humilia respicit: et alta a longe cognoscit.

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

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

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.

8 Dominus retribuet pro me: Domine misericordia tua in saeculum: opera manuum tuarum ne despicias.

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