Thanksgiving for the Loʀᴅ’s Favor.
A Psalm of David.
1 I will give You thanks with all my heart;
I will sing praises to You before the gods.
2 I will bow down toward Your holy temple
And give thanks to Your name for Your lovingkindness and Your truth;
For You have magnified Your word according to all Your name.
3 On the day I called, You answered me;
You made me bold with strength in my soul.
4 All the kings of the earth will give thanks to You, O Loʀᴅ,
When they have heard the words of Your mouth.
5 And they will sing of the ways of the Loʀᴅ,
For great is the glory of the Loʀᴅ.
6 For though the Loʀᴅ is exalted,
Yet He regards the lowly,
But the haughty He knows from afar.
7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me;
You will stretch forth Your hand against the wrath of my enemies,
And Your right hand will save me.
8 The Loʀᴅ will accomplish what concerns me;
Your lovingkindness, O Loʀᴅ, is everlasting;
Do not forsake the works of Your hands.
