1 A Psalm for David, of Aggæus and Zacharias. I will give thee thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart ; and I will sing psalms to thee before the angels ; for thou hast heard all the words of my mouth.
2 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and give thanks to thy name, on account of thy mercy and thy truth ; for thou hast magnified thy holy name above every thing.
3 In whatsoever day I shall call upon thee, hear me speedily ; thou shalt abundantly provide me with thy power in my soul.
4 Let all the kings of the earth, O Lord, give thanks unto thee ; for they have heard all the words of thy mouth.
5 And let them sing in the ways of the Lord ; for great is the glory of the Lord.
6 For the Lord is high, and yet regards the lowly ; and he knows high things from afar off.
7 Though I should walk in the midst of affliction, thou wilt quicken me ; thou hast stretched forth thine hands against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand has saved me.
8 O Lord, thou shalt recompense them on my behalf : thy mercy, O Lord, endures for ever : overlook not the works of thine hands.
