Psalms • Chapter 138
1
A psalm of David. I thank you with my whole being; I sing your praises before the heavenly beings.
2
I bow down before your holy Temple, and I am thankful because of who you are—for your trustworthy love and faithfulness—and for the fact that your promises are even greater than what people expect of you.
3
On the day I cried out to you for help, you answered me. You encouraged me and made me strong.
4
All the kings of the earth will praise you, Lord, for they have heard what you have said.
5
Though the Lord is high above, he pays attention to the lowly; but he recognizes the proud a long way off.
6
Even though I walk into a great deal of trouble, you protect me. You reach out to defend me from the anger of those who hate me—your strong hand saves me.
7
The Lord vindicates me! Lord, your trustworthy love lasts forever! Don't give up on what you have made!
