138:1  Of David. I offer you thanks, O Lord, with all my heart; before the “gods” I sing your praise.
138:2  I bow down toward your holy temple and I praise your name for your kindness and your faithfulness, for you have exalted above all things your name and your word.
138:3  On the day I cried out, you answered me and granted strength to my spirit.
138:4  All the kings of the earth will praise you, O Lord, when they hear the words of your mouth.
138:5  They will sing of the ways of the Lord: “How great is the Lord’s glory!”
138:6  For though the Lord is exalted, he cares for the lowly, but he remains far distant from the proud.
138:7  Although I walk in the midst of hostility, you preserve my life. You stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and with your right hand you deliver me.
138:8  The Lord will fulfill his plan for me. Your kindness, O Lord, endures forever; do not forsake the work of your hands.
