| 138:1 | By David. I confess Thee, with all my heart, Before the gods I do praise Thee. |
| 138:2 | I bow myself toward Thy holy temple, And I confess Thy name, For Thy kindness, and for Thy truth, For Thou hast made great Thy saying above all Thy name. |
| 138:3 | In the day I called, when Thou dost answer me, Thou dost strengthen me in my soul `with' strength. |
| 138:4 | O Jehovah, all kings of earth confess Thee, When they have heard the sayings of Thy mouth. |
| 138:5 | And they sing in the ways of Jehovah, For great `is' the honour of Jehovah. |
| 138:6 | For high `is' Jehovah, and the lowly He seeth, And the haughty from afar He knoweth. |
| 138:7 | If I walk in the midst of distress Thou quickenest me, Against the anger of mine enemies Thou sendest forth Thy hand, And Thy right hand doth save me. |

Young's Literal Translation 1862
Young's Literal Translation is a translation of the Bible into English, published in 1862. The translation was made by Robert Young, compiler of Young's Analytical Concordance to the Bible and Concise Critical Comments on the New Testament. Young used the Textus Receptus and the Majority Text as the basis for his translation. He wrote in the preface to the first edition, "It has been no part of the Translator's plan to attempt to form a New Hebrew or Greek Text--he has therefore somewhat rigidly adhered to the received ones."
