Psalm 138 :: New King James Version (NKJV)

The LORD’s Goodness to the Faithful
Psa 138:1A Psalm of David.

I will praise You with my whole heart;
Before the gods I will sing praises to You.
Psa 138:2I will worship toward Your holy temple,
And praise Your name
For Your lovingkindness and Your truth;
For You have magnified Your word above all Your name.
Psa 138:3In the day when I cried out, You answered me,
And made me bold with strength in my soul.
Psa 138:4All the kings of the earth shall praise You, O LORD,
When they hear the words of Your mouth.
Psa 138:5Yes, they shall sing of the ways of the LORD,
For great is the glory of the LORD.
Psa 138:6Though the LORD is on high,
Yet He regards the lowly;
But the proud He knows from afar.
Psa 138:7Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me;
You will stretch out Your hand
Against the wrath of my enemies,
And Your right hand will save me.
Psa 138:8The LORD will perfect that which concerns me;
Your mercy, O LORD, endures forever;
Do not forsake the works of Your hands.
