1A Psalm of David. I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto thee. | 1By David. I will give you thanks with all my heart; before the heavenly assembly I will sing praises to you. |
2I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name. | 2I will bow down toward your holy temple, and give thanks to your name, because of your loyal love and faithfulness, for you have exalted your promise above the entire sky. |
3In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul. | 3When I cried out for help, you answered me. You made me bold and energized me. |
4All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear the words of thy mouth. | 4Let all the kings of the earth give thanks to you, O LORD, when they hear the words you speak. |
5Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory of the LORD. | 5Let them sing about the LORD's deeds, for the LORD's splendor is magnificent. |
6Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off. | 6Though the LORD is exalted, he takes note of the lowly, and recognizes the proud from far away. |
7Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me. | 7Even when I must walk in the midst of danger, you revive me. You oppose my angry enemies, and your right hand delivers me. |
8The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands. | 8The LORD avenges me. O LORD, your loyal love endures. Do not abandon those whom you have made! |
