1 I will give thanks to you, LORD, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.
1
<Unto the end, for the hidden things of the Son. A psalm for David.> (9-2) I will give praise to thee, O Lord, with my whole heart: I will relate all thy wonders.
2 I will be glad and rejoice in you; I will sing the praises of your name, O Most High.
2
(9-3) I will be glad, and rejoice in thee: I will sing to thy name, O thou most high.
3 My enemies turn back; they stumble and perish before you.
3
(9-4) When my enemy shall be turned back: they shall be weakened, and perish before thy face.
4 For you have upheld my right and my cause, sitting enthroned as the righteous judge.
4
(9-5) For thou hast maintained my judgment and my cause: thou hast sat on the throne, who judgest justice.
5 You have rebuked the nations and destroyed the wicked; you have blotted out their name for ever and ever.
5
(9-6) Thou hast rebuked the Gentiles, and the wicked one hath perished; thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever.
6 Endless ruin has overtaken my enemies, you have uprooted their cities; even the memory of them has perished.
6
(9-7) The swords of the enemy have failed unto the end: and their cities thou hast destroyed. Their memory hath perished with a noise:
7 The LORD reigns forever; he has established his throne for judgment.
7
(9-8) But the Lord remaineth for ever. He hath prepared his throne in judgment:
8 He rules the world in righteousness and judges the peoples with equity.
8
(9-9) And he shall judge the world in equity, he shall judge the people in justice.
9 The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.
9
(9-10) And the Lord is become a refuge for the poor: a helper in due time in tribulation.
10 Those who know your name trust in you, for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you.
10
(9-11) And let them trust in thee who know thy name: for thou hast not forsaken them that seek thee, O Lord.
11 Sing the praises of the LORD, enthroned in Zion; proclaim among the nations what he has done.
11
(9-12) Sing ye to the Lord, who dwelleth in Sion: declare his ways among the Gentiles:
12 For he who avenges blood remembers; he does not ignore the cries of the afflicted.
12
(9-13) For requiring their blood, he hath remembered them: he hath not forgotten the cry of the poor.
13 LORD, see how my enemies persecute me! Have mercy and lift me up from the gates of death,
13
(9-14) Have mercy on me, O Lord: see my humiliation which I suffer from my enemies.
14 that I may declare your praises in the gates of Daughter Zion, and there rejoice in your salvation.
14
(9-15) Thou that liftest me up from the gates of death, that I may declare all thy praises in the gates of the daughter of Sion.
15 The nations have fallen into the pit they have dug; their feet are caught in the net they have hidden.
15
(9-16) I will rejoice in thy salvation: the Gentiles have stuck fast in the destruction which they prepared. Their foot hath been taken in the very snare which they hid.
16 The LORD is known by his acts of justice; the wicked are ensnared by the work of their hands.
16
(9-17) The Lord shall be known when he executeth judgments: the sinner hath been caught in the works of his own hands.
17 The wicked go down to the realm of the dead, all the nations that forget God.
17

18 But God will never forget the needy; the hope of the afflicted will never perish.
18
(9-19) For the poor man shall not be forgotten to the end: the patience of the poor shall not perish for ever.
19 Arise, LORD, do not let mortals triumph; let the nations be judged in your presence.
19
(9-20) Arise, O Lord, let not man be strengthened: let the Gentiles be judged in thy sight.
20 Strike them with terror, LORD; let the nations know they are only mortal.
20
(9-21) Appoint, O Lord, a lawgiver over them: that the Gentiles may know themselves to be but men.
