Psalm 138. Confitebor tibi.
I WILL give thanks unto thee, O Lord, with my whole heart; *
even before the gods will I sing praise unto thee.
2 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy Name,
because of thy loving-kindness and truth; * for thou hast magnified
thy Name, and thy word, above all things.
3 When I called upon thee, thou heardest me; * and enduedst my
soul with much strength.
4 All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD; * for
they have heard the words of thy mouth.
5 Yea, they shall sing of the ways of the LORD, * that great
is the glory of the LORD.
6 For though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly;
* as for the proud, he beholdeth them afar off.
7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, yet shalt thou refresh
me; * thou shalt stretch forth thy hand upon the furiousness
of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.
8 The LORD shall make good his loving-kindness toward me; * yea,
thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever; despise not then the works
of thine own hands.
