Psalmorum 138

1 ipsi David confitebor tibi Domine in toto corde meo quoniam audisti verba oris mei in conspectu angelorum psallam tibi

[A Psalm] of David. I will give thee thanks with my whole heart: Before the gods will I sing praises unto 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 toward thy holy temple, And give thanks unto thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: For thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

3 in quacumque die invocavero te exaudi me multiplicabis me in anima mea virtute

In the day that I called thou answeredst me, Thou didst encourage 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 give thee thanks, O Jehovah, For they have heard the words of thy mouth.

5 et cantent in viis Domini quoniam magna gloria Domini

Yea, they shall sing of the ways of Jehovah; For great is the glory of Jehovah.

6 quoniam excelsus Dominus et humilia respicit et alta a longe cognoscit

For though Jehovah is high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly; But the haughty he knoweth from afar.

7 si ambulavero in medio tribulationis vivificabis me 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 mine enemies, And thy right hand will save me.

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

Jehovah will perfect that which concerneth me: Thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, [endureth] for ever; Forsake not the works of thine own hands.
