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