1 By David.

I will give you thanks with all my heart;

before the heavenly assembly I will sing praises to you.

2 I will bow down toward your holy temple

and give thanks to your name,

because of your loyal love and faithfulness,

for you have exalted your promise above the entire sky.

3 When I cried out for help, you answered me.

You made me bold and energized me.

4 Let all the kings of the earth give thanks to you, O Lord,

when they hear the words you speak.

5 Let them sing about the Lord’s deeds,

for the Lord’s splendor is magnificent.

6 Though the Lord is exalted, he looks after the lowly,

and from far away humbles the proud.

7 Even when I must walk in the midst of danger, you revive me.

You oppose my angry enemies,

and your right hand delivers me.

8 The Lord avenges me.

O Lord, your loyal love endures.

Do not abandon those whom you have made.
