Psalms 9

1 <> I will praise [thee], O LORD, with my whole heart; I will tell of all thy marvellous works. 2 I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High 3 because my enemies are turned back; they shall fall and perish at thy presence. 4 For thou hast accomplished my judgment and my cause; thou didst sit in the throne judging [according to] righteousness. 5 Thou hast reprehended the Gentiles, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever. 6 O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and the cities that thou hast destroyed; their memorial is perished with them. 7 But the LORD shall endure for ever; he has prepared his throne for judgment. 8 And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall judge the peoples in uprightness. 9 The LORD also will be a refuge to the humble, a refuge for the time of trouble. 10 And those that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, O LORD, hast not forsaken those that seek thee. 11 Sing unto the LORD, he who dwells in Zion; declare among the people his doings. 12 When he makes requirement for blood, he remembers them; he does not forget the cry of the humble. 13 Have mercy upon me, O LORD; consider my trouble [which I suffer] from those that hate me, thou that liftest me up from the gates of death: 14 that I may show forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy saving health. 15 The Gentiles are sunk down in the pit [that] they made: in the net which they hid their own foot is taken. 16 The LORD is known [by] the judgment [which] he has executed; the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion ([meditate on this for ever]). Selah. 17 The wicked shall be put into Sheol, all the Gentiles that forget God. 18 For the humble shall not always be forgotten: the hope of the poor shall [not] perish for ever. 19 Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail: let the Gentiles be judged in thy sight. 20 Put fear into them, O LORD: [that] the Gentiles may know themselves [to be but] men. Selah.:
