Psalm 138:1

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

{A Psalm of David.} I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto thee.

God is in the meeting-place of God; he is judging among the gods.

So that I may give knowledge of your unchanging word before kings, and not be put to shame.

You may not say evil of the judges, or put a curse on the ruler of your people.

In answer, Jesus said, Is there not a saying in your law, I said, You are gods?

And Paul said, Brother, I had no idea that he was the high priest: for it has been said, You may not say evil about the ruler of your people.

Are they not all helping spirits, who are sent out as servants to those whose heritage will be salvation?

I will give you praise, O Lord, among the peoples; I will make songs to you among the nations.
