Psalms 137

Brenton Septuagint · 8 verses · 6 questions below

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.

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.

In whatsoever day I shall call upon thee, hear me speedily; thou shalt abundantly provide me with thy power in my soul.

Let all the kings of the earth, O Lord, give thanks unto thee; for they have heard all the words of thy mouth.

And let them sing in the ways of the Lord; for great is the glory of the Lord.

For the Lord is high, and [yet] regards the lowly; and he knows high things from afar off.

Though I should walk in the midst of affliction, thou wilt me; thou hast stretched forth thine hands against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand has saved me.

O Lord, thou shalt [them] on my behalf: thy mercy, O Lord, [endures] for ever: overlook not the works of thine hands.
