1LORD, I thank you with all of my heart; because you heard the words that I spoke, I will sing your praise before the heavenly beings. 1Davidic. I will give You thanks with all my heart; I will sing Your praise before the heavenly beings.
2I will bow down in worship toward your holy Temple and give thanks to your name for your gracious love and truth, for you have done great things to carry out your word consistent with your name.2I will bow down toward Your holy temple and give thanks to Your name for Your constant love and truth. You have exalted Your name and Your promise above everything else.
3When I called out, you answered me; you strengthened me.3On the day I called, You answered me; You increased strength within me.
4LORD, all the kings of the earth will give you thanks, for they have heard what you have spoken. 4All the kings on earth will give You thanks, LORD, when they hear what You have promised.
5They will sing about the ways of the LORD, for great is the glory of the LORD!5They will sing of the LORD's ways, for the LORD's glory is great.
6Though the LORD is highly exalted, yet he pays attention to those who are lowly regarded, but he is aware of the arrogant from afar.6Though the LORD is exalted, He takes note of the humble; but He knows the haughty from a distance.
7Though I walk straight into trouble, you preserve my life, stretching out your hand to fight the vehemence of my enemies, and your right hand delivers me.7If I walk into the thick of danger, You will preserve my life from the anger of my enemies. You will extend Your hand; Your right hand will save me.
8The LORD will complete what his purpose is for me. LORD, your gracious love is eternal; do not abandon your personal work in me. 8The LORD will fulfill His purpose for me. LORD, Your love is eternal; do not abandon the work of Your hands.
