PSALM 9
To the chief Musician upon
Muthlabben, A Psalm of David.
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 maintaineda 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
refugeb
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.
11Sing
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 humblec. 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. Higgaiond. 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.
