Psa09 - HOLY BIBLE

Psalms – Chapter 9

¹For the leader; according to Muth Labben. A psalm of David.

²I will praise you, LORD, with all my heart;
I will declare all your wondrous deeds.

³I will delight and rejoice in you;
I will sing hymns to your name, Most High.

⁴When my enemies turn back,
they stumble and perish before you.

⁵For you upheld my right and my cause,
seated on your throne, judging justly.

⁶You rebuked the nations, you destroyed the wicked;
their name you blotted out for all time.

⁷The enemies have been ruined forever;
you destroyed their cities;
their memory has perished.

⁸The LORD rules forever,
has set up his throne for judgment.

⁹It is he who judges the world with justice,
who judges the peoples with fairness.

¹⁰The LORD is a stronghold for the oppressed,
a stronghold in times of trouble.

¹¹Those who know your name trust in you;
you never forsake those who seek you, LORD.

¹²Sing hymns to the LORD enthroned on Zion;
proclaim his deeds among the nations!

¹³For the avenger of bloodshed remembers,
does not forget the cry of the afflicted.

¹⁴Be gracious to me, LORD;
see how my foes afflict me!
You alone can raise me from the gates of death.

¹⁵Then I will declare all your praises,
sing joyously of your salvation
in the gates of daughter Zion.

¹⁶The nations fall into the pit they dig;
in the snare they hide, their own foot is caught.

¹⁷The LORD is revealed in making judgments:
by the deeds they do the wicked are trapped.

Higgaion. Selah

¹⁸To Sheol the wicked will depart,
all the nations that forget God.

¹⁹For the needy will never be forgotten,
nor will the hope of the afflicted ever fade.

²⁰Arise, LORD, let no mortal prevail;
let the nations be judged in your presence.

²¹Strike them with terror, LORD;
show the nations they are only human.

Selah
