Ž 138, 1-8

1 I will praise you with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto you. 2 I will worship toward your holy temple, and praise your name for your loving kindness and for your truth: for you have magnified your word above all your name. 3 In the day when I cried you answered me, and strengthened me with strength in my soul. 4 All the kings of the earth shall praise you, O LORD, when they hear the words of your mouth. 5 Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory of the LORD. 6 Though the LORD be high, yet has he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knows far off. 7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you will revive me: you shall stretch forth your hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and your right hand shall save me. 8 The LORD will perfect that which concerns me: your mercy, O LORD, endures for ever: forsake not the works of your own hands.

Verš 6

Though the LORD be high, yet has he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knows far off.

Ž 113:6 - Who humbles himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!

Z 138,8 - Dávid prosí, aby Pán "neopustil dielo svojich rúk", aby bedlil nad svojím národom, nad jeho kráľmi, kým nepríde prisľúbený Mesiáš (porov. 2 Sam 7,28.29).
