psalms9
- 1I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.
- 2I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High.
- 3When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy presence.
- 4For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou satest in the throne judging right.
- 5Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.
- 6O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and thou hast destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them.
- 7But the LORD shall endure for ever: he hath prepared his throne for judgment.
- 8And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.
- 9The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
- 10And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
- 11Sing praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings.
- 12When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them: he forgetteth not the cry of the humble.
- 13Have 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:
- 14That I may shew forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation.
- 15The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.
- 16The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.
- 17The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.
- 18For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever.
- 19Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy sight.
- 20Put them in fear, O LORD: that the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah.
