Tuesday Morning Scripture – Psalm 138

Thanksgiving for the Lord’s Favor

¹ I will give You thanks with all my heart;
I sing praises to You before the [pagan] gods.

² I will bow down [in worship] toward Your holy temple and give thanks to Your name for Your lovingkindness and Your truth;
For You have magnified Your word together with Your name.

³ On the day I called, You answered me; and You made me bold and confident with [renewed] strength in my life.

⁴ All the kings of the land will give thanks and praise You, O LORD, when they have heard of the promises of Your mouth [which were fulfilled].

⁵ Yes, they will sing of the ways of the LORD[joyfully celebrating His wonderful acts], for great is the glory and majesty of the LORD.

⁶ Though the LORD is exalted, He regards the lowly [and invites them into His fellowship]; but the proud and haughty He knows from a distance.

⁷ Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me; You will stretch out Your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and Your right hand will save me.

⁸ The LORD will accomplish that which concerns me; Your [unwavering] lovingkindness, O  LORD, endures forever— Do not abandon the works of Your own hands.
