Psalms 138
Of David
1 I thank you, Yahweh, with all my heart, because you have heard what I said. In the presence of the angels I play for you,
2 and bow down towards your holy Temple. I give thanks to your name for your love and faithfulness; your promise is even greater than your fame.
3 The day I called for help, you heard me and you increased my strength.
4 Yahweh, all kings on earth give thanks to you, for they have heard your promises;
5 they celebrate Yahweh’s actions, ‘Great is the glory of Yahweh!’
6 From far above, Yahweh sees the humble, from far away he marks down the arrogant.
7 Though I live surrounded by trouble, you keep me alive-to my enemies’ fury! You stretch your hand out and save me, your right hand
8 will do everything for me. Yahweh, your love is everlasting, do not abandon us whom you have made.
