| Chapter
138 |
1 | I
will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto
thee. |
2 | I will worship
toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy
truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name. |
3 | In the day when I cried thou answeredst
me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul. |
4 | All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O
LORD, when they hear the words of thy mouth. |
5 | Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great
is the glory of the LORD. |
6 |
Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud
he knoweth afar off. |
7 |
Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch
forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall
save me. |
8 | The LORD will
perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake
not the works of thine own hands. |
