New Living Translation
Psalms • Chapter 138
1
I give you thanks, O LORD, with all my heart;<br>I will sing your praises before the gods.<br>
2
I bow before your holy Temple as I worship.<br>I praise your name for your unfailing love and faithfulness;<br>for your promises are backed<br>by all the honor of your name.<br>
3
As soon as I pray, you answer me;<br>you encourage me by giving me strength.<br>
4
Every king in all the earth will thank you, LORD,<br>for all of them will hear your words.<br>
5
Yes, they will sing about the LORD’s ways,<br>for the glory of the LORD is very great.<br>
6
Though the LORD is great, he cares for the humble,<br>but he keeps his distance from the proud.<br>
7
Though I am surrounded by troubles,<br>you will protect me from the anger of my enemies.<br>You reach out your hand,<br>and the power of your right hand saves me.<br>
8
The LORD will work out his plans for my life —<br>for your faithful love, O LORD, endures forever.<br>Don’t abandon me, for you made me.<br>
