Psalm 138 - Tree of Life Version

Your Right Hand Delivers Me

¹ Of David. I praise You with all my heart. In the presence of the mighty I will sing praises to You.

² I bow down toward Your holy Temple and praise Your Name for Your love and Your faithfulness. For You—magnified above all Your Name and Your word.

³ On the day I called, You answered me. You made me bold with strength in my soul.

⁴ All the kings of the earth will praise You, Adonai, when they hear Your mouth’s speech.

⁵ So they will sing of the ways of Adonai, for great is the glory of Adonai.

⁶ For though Adonai is exalted, yet He looks upon the lowly, but the haughty He knows from afar.

⁷ Though I walk amid trouble, You revive me. You stretch out Your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and Your right hand delivers me.

⁸ Adonai will fulfill His purpose for me. Your lovingkindness, Adonai, endures forever. Do not abandon the work of Your hands.
