Psalm 138
English Standard Version
Give Thanks to the Lord
Of David.
138 (A)I give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart;
before (B)the gods I sing your praise;
2 I bow down (C)toward your (D)holy temple
and give thanks to your name for your steadfast love and your faithfulness,
for you have exalted above all things
your name and your word.[a]
3 On the day I called, you answered me;
my strength of soul you increased.[b]
4 (E)All the kings of the earth shall give you thanks, O Lord,
for they have heard the words of your mouth,
5 and they shall sing of (F)the ways of the Lord,
for great is the glory of the Lord.
6 (G)For though the Lord is high, he regards the lowly,
but the haughty he knows from afar.
7 (H)Though I walk in the midst of trouble,
you (I)preserve my life;
you (J)stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies,
and your (K)right hand delivers me.
8 The Lord will (L)fulfill his purpose for me;
(M)your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever.
Do not forsake (N)the work of your hands.

Judges 3:7-11
English Standard Version
Othniel
7 (A)And the people of Israel did what was evil in the sight of the Lord. They forgot the Lord their God and served the Baals and (B)the Asheroth. 8 Therefore the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, (C)and he sold them into the hand of (D)Cushan-rishathaim king of Mesopotamia. And the people of Israel served Cushan-rishathaim eight years. 9 But when the people of Israel (E)cried out to the Lord, the Lord raised up a (F)deliverer for the people of Israel, who saved them, (G)Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother. 10 (H)The Spirit of the Lord was upon him, and he judged Israel. He went out to war, and the Lord gave Cushan-rishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand. And his hand prevailed over Cushan-rishathaim. 11 (I)So the land had rest forty years. Then Othniel the son of Kenaz died.
