Psalm 138

Vulgate

   1 David. Confitebor tibi, Domine, in toto corde meo, quoniam audisti verba oris mei. In conspectu angelorum psallam tibi,
   2 adorabo ad templum sanctum tuum; et confitebor nomini tuo propter misericordiam tuam et veritatem tuam, quoniam magnificasti super omne nomen eloquium tuum.
   3 In quacumque die invocavero te, exaudi me; multiplicabis in anima mea virtutem.
   4 Confitebuntur tibi, Domine, omnes reges terrae, quia audierunt eloquia oris tui.
   5 Et cantabunt vias Domini, quoniam magna est gloria Domini;
   6 quoniam excelsus Dominus et humilem respicit et superbum a longe cognoscit.
   7 Si ambulavero in medio tribulationis, vivificabis me; et contra iram inimicorum meorum extendes manum tuam, et salvum me faciet dextera tua.
   8 Dominus perficiet pro me; Domine, misericordia tua in saeculum: opera manuum tuarum ne despicias.

King James Version

A Psalm of David.

   1 I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto thee.
   2 I 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.
   3 In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.
   4 All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear the words of thy mouth.
   5 Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory of the LORD.
   6 Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off.
   7 Though 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.
   8 The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.
