Psalm 138

Psalm 138

A psalm of David.

1 Lord, I will praise you with all my heart.
    In front of those who think they are gods
    I will sing praise to you.
2 I will bow down facing your holy temple.
    I will praise your name,
    because you are always loving and faithful.
You have honored your holy word
    even more than your own fame.
3 When I called out to you, you answered me.
    You made me strong and brave.

4 Lord, may all the kings on earth praise you
    when they hear about what you have decided.
5 Lord, may they sing about what you have done,
    because your glory is great.

6 Though the Lord is high above all, he cares for the lowly.
    Though he is in heaven above, he sees them on earth below.
7 Trouble is all around me,
    but you keep me alive.
You reach out your hand to put a stop to the anger of my enemies.
    With your powerful right hand you save me.
8 Lord, you will show that I was right to trust you.
    Lord, your faithful love continues forever.
    You have done so much for us, so don’t stop now.
