1 I will praise you, Lord, with all my heart;before the ‘gods’ I will sing your praise.
2 I will bow down towards your holy templeand will praise your namefor your unfailing love and your faithfulness,for you have so exalted your solemn decreethat it surpasses your fame.
3 When I called, you answered me;you greatly emboldened me.
4 May all the kings of the earth praise you, Lord,when they hear what you have decreed.
5 May they sing of the ways of the Lord,for the glory of the Lord is great.
6 Though the Lord is exalted, he looks kindly on the lowly;though lofty, he sees them from afar.
