1 'n Psalm van Dawid. Ek sal U loof met my hele hart; in die teenwoordigheid van die gode sal ek psalmsing tot u eer.

2 Ek sal my neerbuig na u heilige paleis en u Naam loof, om u goedertierenheid en om u trou ontwil; want U het vanweë u ganse Naam u toesegging groot gemaak.

3 Die dag toe ek geroep het, het U my verhoor, my moedig gemaak met krag in my siel.

4 Al die konings van die aarde sal U loof, o HERE, as hulle gehoor het die woorde van u mond;

5 en hulle sal sing van die weë van die HERE, want die heerlikheid van die HERE is groot.

6 Want die HERE is verhewe; nogtans sien Hy die nederige aan, en die hoogmoedige ken Hy uit die verte.

7 As ek te midde van benoudheid wandel, behou U my in die lewe; U steek u hand uit teen die toorn van my vyande, en u regterhand verlos my.

8 Die HERE sal dit vir my voleindig! U goedertierenheid, HERE, is tot in ewigheid: laat nie vaar die werke van u hande nie!

1 I will give thee thanks with my whole heart:

Before the gods will I sing praises unto thee.

2 I 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.

3 In the day that I called thou answeredst me,

Thou didst encourage me with strength in my soul.

4 All the kings of the earth shall give thee thanks, O Jehovah,

For they have heard the words of thy mouth.

5 Yea, they shall sing of the ways of Jehovah;

For great is the glory of Jehovah.

6 For though Jehovah is high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly;

But the haughty he knoweth from afar.

7 Though 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.

8 Jehovah will perfect that which concerneth me:

Thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, endureth for ever;

Forsake not the works of thine own hands.
