Psalms 9
I Will Recount Your Wonderful Deeds
▼▼Psalms 9 and 10 together follow an acrostic pattern, each stanza beginning with the successive letters of the Hebrew alphabet. In the Septuagint they form one psalm To the choirmaster: according to Muth-labben. ▼▼Probably a musical or liturgical term A Psalm of David.
1 I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart;I will recount all of your fwonderful deeds.
2I will be glad and gexult in you;
I will hsing praise to your name, iO Most High.
3 When my enemies turn back,
they stumble and perish before ▼
▼Or because of
your presence.4For you have kmaintained my just cause;
you have lsat on the throne, giving righteous judgment.
5 You have mrebuked the nations; you have made the wicked perish;
you have nblotted out their name forever and ever.
6The enemy came to an end in everlasting ruins;
their cities you rooted out;
the very memory of them has perished.
7 But the Lord sits enthroned forever;
he has established his throne for justice,
8and he ojudges the world with righteousness;
he pjudges the peoples with uprightness.
9 The Lord is qa stronghold for rthe oppressed,
a stronghold in stimes of trouble.
10And those who tknow your name put their trust in you,
for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you.
11 Sing praises to the Lord, who usits enthroned in Zion!
Tell among the peoples his vdeeds!
12For he who wavenges blood is mindful of them;
he xdoes not forget the cry of the afflicted.
13 yBe gracious to me, O Lord!
See my affliction from those who hate me,
O you who lift me up from zthe gates of death,
14that I may recount all your praises,
that in the gates of aathe daughter of Zion
I may abrejoice in your salvation.
15 The nations have sunk in acthe pit that they made;
in adthe net that they hid, their own foot has been caught.
16The Lord has made himself aeknown; he has executed judgment;
the wicked are snared in the work of their own hands. Higgaion. ▼
▼Probably a musical or liturgical term
Selah 17 The wicked shall agreturn to Sheol,
all the nations that ahforget God.
18 For the needy shall not always be forgotten,
and aithe hope of the poor shall not perish forever.
19 ajArise, O Lord! Let not akman prevail;
let the nations be judged before you!
20Put them in fear, O Lord!
Let the nations know that they are but almen! Selah
