Psalms 138

1 I will give you thanks with all my heart; before the heavenly assembly I will sing praises to you. 2 I will bow down toward your holy temple, and give thanks to your name, because of your loyal love and faithfulness, for you have exalted your promise above the entire sky. 3 When I cried out for help, you answered me. You made me bold and energized me. 4 Let all the kings of the earth give thanks to you, O Lord, when they hear the words you speak. 5 Let them sing about the Lord’s deeds, for the Lord’s splendor is magnificent. 6 Though the Lord is exalted, he takes note of the lowly, and recognizes the proud from far away. 7 Even when I must walk in the midst of danger, you revive me. You oppose my angry enemies, and your right hand delivers me. 8 The Lord avenges me. O Lord, your loyal love endures. Do not abandon those whom you have made!
