Psalm 138 - Conservative English Version1 (By David.) With all my heart I praise you, LORD. In the presence of angels I sing your praises. 2 I worship at your holy temple and praise you for your love and your faithfulness. You were true to your word and made yourself more famous than ever before. 3 When I asked for your help, you answered my prayer and gave me courage. 4 All kings on this earth have heard your promises, LORD, and they will praise you. 5 You are so famous that they will sing about the things you have done. 6 Though you are above us all, you care for humble people, and you keep a close watch on everyone who is proud. 7 I am surrounded by trouble, but you protect me against my angry enemies. With your own powerful arm you keep me safe. 8 You, LORD, will always treat me with kindness. Your love never fails. You have made us what we are. Don't give up on us now! |
