A Psalm of Dawid.

1 I will praise You with my whole heart; before rulers (elohim) will I sing praise unto You.

2 I will worship toward Your holy temple, and praise Your name for Your lovingkindness and for Your truth: for You have magnified Your word above all Your name.

3 In the day when I cried, You answeredst me and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.

4 All the kings of the earth shall praise You, O יהוה, when they hear the words of Your mouth.

5 Yea, they shall sing in the ways of יהוה, for great is the glory of יהוה.

6 Though יהוה 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, You wilt revive me; You shalt stretch forth Your hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and Your right hand shall save me.

8 יהוה will perfect that which concerneth me; Your mercy, O יהוה, endureth forever; forsake not the works of Your own hands.
