1 I will give thanks to thee, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will recount all thy wonderful works.
1 I will give thanks to you, LORD, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.
2 I will be glad and exult in thee: I will sing to thy name, O thou Most High.
2 I will be glad and rejoice in you; I will sing the praises of your name, O Most High.
3 When mine enemies are turned back, they shall be feeble and perish at thy presence.
3 My enemies turn back; they stumble and perish before you.
4 For thou hast maintained my cause and my right; thou satest on the throne, that judgest righteousness.
4 For you have upheld my right and my cause, sitting enthroned as the righteous judge.
5 Thou hast rebuked the nations, and the ungodly one has perished; thou hast blotted out their name for ever, even for ever and ever.
5 You have rebuked the nations and destroyed the wicked; you have blotted out their name for ever and ever.
6 The swords of the enemy have failed utterly; and thou hast destroyed cities: their memorial has been destroyed with a noise,
6 Endless ruin has overtaken my enemies, you have uprooted their cities; even the memory of them has perished.
7 but the Lord endures for ever: he has prepared his throne for judgment.
7 The LORD reigns forever; he has established his throne for judgment.
8 And he will judge the world in righteousness, he will judge the nations in uprightness.
8 He rules the world in righteousness and judges the peoples with equity.
9 The Lord also is become a refuge for the poor, a seasonable help, in affliction.
9 The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.
10 And let them that know thy name hope in thee: for thou, O Lord, hast not failed them that diligently seek thee.
10 Those who know your name trust in you, for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you.
11 Sing praises to the Lord, who dwells in Sion: declare his dealings among the nations.
11 Sing the praises of the LORD, enthroned in Zion; proclaim among the nations what he has done.
12 For he remembered them, in making inquisition for blood: he has not forgotten the supplication of the poor.
12 For he who avenges blood remembers; he does not ignore the cries of the afflicted.
13 Have mercy upon me, O Lord; look upon my affliction which I suffer of mine enemies, thou that liftest me up from the gates of death:
13 LORD, see how my enemies persecute me! Have mercy and lift me up from the gates of death,
14 that I may declare all thy praises in the gates of the daughter of Sion: I will exult in thy salvation.
14 that I may declare your praises in the gates of Daughter Zion, and there rejoice in your salvation.
15 The heathen are caught in the destruction which they planned: in the very snare which they hid is their foot taken.
15 The nations have fallen into the pit they have dug; their feet are caught in the net they have hidden.
16 The Lord is known as executing judgments: the sinner is taken in the works of his hands. A song of Pause.
16 The LORD is known by his acts of justice; the wicked are ensnared by the work of their hands.
17 Let sinners be driven away into Hades, even all the nations that forget God.
17 The wicked go down to the realm of the dead, all the nations that forget God.
18 For the poor shall not be forgotten for ever: the patience of the needy ones shall not perish for ever.
18 But God will never forget the needy; the hope of the afflicted will never perish.
19 Arise, O Lord, let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged before thee.
19 Arise, LORD, do not let mortals triumph; let the nations be judged in your presence.
20 Appoint, O Lord, a lawgiver over them: let the heathen know that they are men. Pause.
20 Strike them with terror, LORD; let the nations know they are only mortal.
