Psalms 9:1

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 cwonderful deeds.

Psalms 11

The Lord Is in His Holy Temple

To the choirmaster. Of David.

1 In the Lord I take refuge;
how can you say to my soul,
dFlee like a bird to your mountain,
2for behold, the wicked ebend the bow;
fthey have fitted their arrow to the string
to shoot in the dark at the upright in heart;
3if gthe foundations are destroyed,
what can the righteous do?”
Or for the foundations will be destroyed; what has the righteous done?

4 iThe Lord is in his holy temple;
the Lord’s jthrone is in heaven;
his eyes see, his eyelids ktest the children of man.
5The Lord ltests the righteous,
but mhis soul hates the wicked and the one who loves violence.
6Let him rain coals on the wicked;
nfire and sulfur and a scorching wind shall be othe portion of their cup.
7For the Lord is righteous;
he ploves righteous deeds;
qthe upright shall behold his face.
