Psalm 138:1–6

Of David.

1  tI give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart;

before the gods I sing your praise;

2  I bow down utoward your holy temple

and vgive thanks to your name for your steadfast love and your faithfulness,

for you have exalted above all things

your name and your word.1

3  wOn the day I called, you answered me;

my strength of soul you increased.2

4  xAll the kings of the earth shall give you thanks, O Lord,

for they have heard the words of your mouth,

5  and they shall sing of the ways of the Lord,

for great is the glory of the Lord.

6  For though the Lord is yhigh, he regards the lowly,

zbut the haughty he knows from afar.
