1 Of David. I give You thanks with all my heart; before the gods I sing Your praises.
2 I bow down toward Your holy temple and give thanks to Your name for Your loving devotion and Your faithfulness; You have exalted Your name and Your word above all else.
3 On the day I called, You answered me; You emboldened me and strengthened my soul.
4 All the kings of the earth will give You thanks, O LORD, when they hear the words of Your mouth.
5 They will sing of the ways of the LORD, for the glory of the LORD is great.
6 Though the LORD is on high, He attends to the lowly; but the proud He knows from afar.
7 If I walk in the midst of trouble, You preserve me from the anger of my foes; You extend Your hand, and Your right hand saves me.
8 The LORD will fulfill His purpose for me. O LORD, Your loving devotion endures forever—do not abandon the works of Your hands.
