Psalms 138

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Of David. I thank you, LORD, with all my heart; before the gods to you I sing.	1 I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto thee.
2 I bow low toward your holy temple; I praise your name for your fidelity and love. For you have exalted over all your name and your promise.	2 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.
3 When I cried out, you answered; you strengthened my spirit.	3 In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.
4 All the kings of earth will praise you, LORD, when they hear the words of your mouth.	4 All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear the words of thy mouth.
5 They will sing of the ways of the LORD: "How great is the glory of the LORD!"	5 Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory of the LORD.
6 The LORD is on high, but cares for the lowly and knows the proud from afar.	6 Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off.
7 Though I walk in the midst of dangers, you guard my life when my enemies rage. You stretch out your hand; your right hand saves me.	7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.
8 The LORD is with me to the end. LORD, your love endures forever. Never forsake the work of your hands!	8 The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.
