Psalm 138

¹ I give You thanks with all my heart; Before the mighty ones I sing praises to You.

² I bow myself toward Your set-apart Hĕḵal, And give thanks to Your Name For Your loving-commitment and for Your truth; For You have made great Your Word, Your Name, above all.

³ On the day I called You did answer me, You made me bold with strength in my being.

⁴ Let all the sovereigns of the earth Give thanks to You, O יהוה, When they shall hear the words of Your mouth.

⁵ And let them sing of the ways of יהוה, For great is the esteem of יהוה.

⁶ Though יהוה is exalted, He looks on the humble; But the proud He perceives from a distance.

⁷ Though I walk in the midst of distress, You revive me; You stretch out Your hand Against the wrath of my enemies, And Your right hand saves me.

⁸ יהוה does perfect for me. O יהוה, Your loving-commitment is everlasting. Do not forsake the works of Your hands.
