Psalm 138

A Thankful Heart

Davidic.

1 I will give You thanks with all my heart;(a)
I will sing Your praise before the heavenly beings.[a](b)
2 I will bow down toward Your holy temple
and give thanks to Your name
for Your constant love and truth.
You have exalted Your name
and Your promise above everything else.(c)
3 On the day I called, You answered me;
You increased strength within me.[b](d)

4 All the kings on earth will give You thanks, Lord,
when they hear what You have promised.[c](e)
5 They will sing of the Lord's ways,
for the Lord's glory is great.(f)
6 Though the Lord is exalted,
He takes note of the humble;
but He knows the haughty from a distance.(g)

7 If I walk into the thick of danger,
You will preserve my life
from the anger of my enemies.(h)
You will extend Your hand;
Your right hand will save me.(i)
8 The Lord will fulfill His purpose for me.(j)
Lord, Your love is eternal;
do not abandon the work of Your hands.(k)
