Psalm
138
I
will give thanks unto thee, O LORD, with my whole heart: even before the
gods will I sing praise unto thee.
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.
When
I called upon thee, thou heardest me, and enduedst my soul with much strength.
ALL
the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD; for they have heard the
words of thy mouth.
Yea,
they shall sing of the ways of the LORD; for great is the glory of the
LORD.
For
though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: as for the
proud, he beholdeth them afar off.
THOUGH
I walk in the midst of trouble, yet shalt thou refresh me: thou shalt stretch
forth thy hand upon the fury of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall
save me.
The
LORD shall fulfil his purpose toward me: Yea, thy mercy, O LORD, endureth
for ever; forsake not then the works of thine own hands.
Glory
to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: as it was in the
beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
