Psalms Chapter 9
|
|||
|
|
1 For the Chief Musician. Set to “The Death of the Son.” A Psalm by David. I will give thanks to Yahweh with my whole heart. I will tell of all your marvelous works.
|
|||
|
|
2 I will be glad and rejoice in you. I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
|
|||
|
|
3 When my enemies turn back, they stumble and perish in your presence.
|
|||
|
|
4 For you have maintained my just cause. You sit on the throne judging righteously.
|
|||
|
|
5 You have rebuked the nations. You have destroyed the wicked. You have blotted out their name forever and ever.
|
|||
|
|
6 The enemy is overtaken by endless ruin. The very memory of the cities which you have overthrown has perished.
|
|||
|
|
7 But Yahweh reigns forever. He has prepared his throne for judgment.
|
|||
|
|
8 He will judge the world in righteousness. He will administer judgment to the peoples in uprightness.
|
|||
|
|
9 Yahweh will also be a high tower for the oppressed; a high tower in times of trouble.
|
|||
|
|
10 Those who know your name will put their trust in you, for you, Yahweh, have not forsaken those who seek you.
|
|||
|
|
11 Sing praises to Yahweh, who dwells in Zion, and declare among the people what he has done.
|
|||
|
|
12 For he who avenges blood remembers them. He doesn’t forget the cry of the afflicted.
|
|||
|
|
13 Have mercy on me, Yahweh. See my affliction by those who hate me, and lift me up from the gates of death,
|
|||
|
|
14 that I may show all of your praise. I will rejoice in your salvation in the gates of the daughter of Zion.
|
|||
|
|
15 The nations have sunk down in the pit that they made. In the net which they hid, their own foot is taken.
|
|||
|
|
16 Yahweh has made himself known. He has executed judgment. The wicked is snared by the work of his own hands. Meditation. Selah.
|
|||
|
|
17 The wicked shall be turned back to Sheol, even all the nations that forget God.
|
|||
|
|
18 For the needy shall not always be forgotten, nor the hope of the poor perish forever.
|
|||
|
|
19 Arise, Yahweh! Don’t let man prevail. Let the nations be judged in your sight.
|
|||
|
|
20 Put them in fear, Yahweh. Let the nations know that they are only men. Selah.
