Zabur 138

By Dawud.

¹I will give you thanks with my whole heart.

Before the gods, I will sing praises to you.

²I will bow down toward your holy temple,

And give thanks to your Name for your loving kindness and for your truth;

For you have exalted your Name and your Word above all.

³In the day that I called, you answered me.

You encouraged me with strength in my soul.

⁴All the kings of the earth will give you thanks, Allah,

For they have heard the words of your mouth.

⁵Yes, they will sing of the ways of Allah;

For great is Allah's glory.

⁶For though Allah is high, yet he looks after the lowly;

But the proud, he knows from afar.

⁷Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you will revive me.

You will stretch forth your hand against the wrath of my enemies.

Your right hand will save me.

⁸Allah will fulfill that which concerns me;

Your loving kindness, Allah, endures forever.

Do not forsake the works of your own hands.
