Chapter 9
|
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 maintained 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 refuge 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. |
11
|
Sing 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 humble. |
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. Higgaion.
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. |
