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