Of David.
I praise You with all my heart.
In the presence of the mighty
I will sing praises to You.
I bow down toward Your holy Temple
and praise Your Name
for Your love and Your faithfulness.
For You—magnified above all
Your Name and Your word.
On the day I called, You answered me.
You made me bold
with strength in my soul.
All the kings of the earth
will praise You, Adonai,
when they hear Your mouth’s speech.
So they will sing of the ways of Adonai,
for great is the glory of Adonai.
For though Adonai is exalted,
yet He looks upon the lowly,
but the haughty He knows from afar.
Though I walk amid trouble,
You revive me.
You stretch out Your hand
against the wrath of my enemies,
and Your right hand delivers me.
Adonai will fulfill His purpose for me.
Your lovingkindness, Adonai, endures forever.
Do not abandon the work of Your hands.
- Psalm 138
May this psalm be an encouragement to each of us today as Adonai strengthens us and continues His work.
