2I will worship toward thy holy temple, And give thanks unto thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: For thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

2I will give worship before your holy Temple, praising your name for your mercy and for your unchanging faith: for you have made your word greater than all your name.

2 I will bow down toward the temple of thy holiness, and celebrate thy name for thy loving-kindness and for thy truth; for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

3In the day that I called thou answeredst me, Thou didst encourage me with strength in my soul.

3When my cry came to your ears you gave me an answer, and made me great with strength in my soul.

3 In the day when I called thou answeredst me; thou didst encourage me with strength in my soul.

4All the kings of the earth shall give thee thanks, O Jehovah, For they have heard the words of thy mouth.

4All the kings of the earth will give you praise, O Lord, when the words of your mouth come to their ears.

4 All the kings of the earth shall celebrate thee, Jehovah, when they have heard the words of thy mouth;

5Yea, they shall sing of the ways of Jehovah; For great is the glory of Jehovah.

5They will make songs about the ways of the Lord; for great is the glory of the Lord.

5 And they shall sing in the ways of Jehovah, for great is the glory of Jehovah.

6For though Jehovah is high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly; But the haughty he knoweth from afar.

6Though the Lord is high, he sees those who are low; and he has knowledge from far off of those who are lifted up.

6 For Jehovah is high; but he looketh upon the lowly, and the proud he knoweth afar off.

7Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me; Thou wilt stretch forth thy hand against the wrath of mine enemies, And thy right hand will save me.

7Even when trouble is round me, you will give me life; your hand will be stretched out against the wrath of my haters, and your right hand will be my salvation.

7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou wilt stretch forth thy hand against the anger of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.

8Jehovah will perfect that which concerneth me: Thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, endureth for ever; Forsake not the works of thine own hands.

8The Lord will make all things complete for me: O Lord, your mercy is eternal; do not give up the works of your hands.

8 Jehovah will perfect what concerneth me: thy loving-kindness, O Jehovah, [endureth] for ever; forsake not the works of thine own hands.
