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.
