Thanksgiving for the LORD’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 LORD,
         When they have heard the words of Your mouth.
5 And they will sing of the ways of the LORD,
         For great is the glory of the LORD.
6 For though the LORD 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 LORD will accomplish what concerns me;
         Your lovingkindness, O LORD, is everlasting;
         Do not forsake the works of Your hands.
