\9:1\To the chief Musician upon Muthlabben, A Psalm of David. I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will show forth all thy wonderful works. |
3 |
\9:2\I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High. |
4 |
\9:3\When my enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy presence. |
5 |
\9:4\For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou sattest on the throne judging right. |
6 |
\9:5\Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever. |
7 |
\9:6\O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and thou hast destroyed cities; their memorial hath perished with them. |
8 |
\9:7\But the LORD shall endure for ever: he hath prepared his throne for judgment. |
9 |
\9:8\And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness. |
10 |
\9:9\The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble. |
11 |
\9:10\And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee. |
12 |
\9:11\Sing praises to the LORD, who dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings. |
13 |
\9:12\When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them: he forgetteth not the cry of the humble. |
14 |
\9:13\Have mercy upon me, O LORD; consider my trouble which I suffer from them that hate me, thou that liftest me up from the gates of death: |
15 |
\9:14\That I may show forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation. |
16 |
\9:15\The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken. |
17 |
\9:16\The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah. |
18 |
\9:17\The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God. |
19 |
\9:18\For the needy shall not always be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever. |
20 |
\9:19\Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy sight. |
21 |
\9:20\Put them in fear, O LORD: that the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah. |
