Psalms 9:1-11

I will give thanks and praise the LORD, with all my heart; I will tell aloud all Your wonders and marvelous deeds. I will rejoice and exult in you; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High. ¶When my enemies turn back, They stumble and perish before You. For You have maintained my right and my cause; You have sat on the throne judging righteously. You have rebuked the nations, You have destroyed the wicked and unrepentant; You have wiped out their name forever and ever. The enemy has been cut off and has vanished in everlasting ruins, You have uprooted their cities; The very memory of them has perished. ¶But the LORD will remain and sit enthroned forever; He has prepared and established His throne for judgment. [Heb 1:11] And He will judge the world in righteousness; He will execute judgment for the nations with fairness (equity). [Acts 17:31] The LORD also will be a refuge and a stronghold for the oppressed, A refuge in times of trouble; And those who know Your name [who have experienced Your precious mercy] will put their confident trust in You, For You, O LORD, have not abandoned those who seek You. [Ps 42:1] ¶Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion; Declare among the peoples His [great and wondrous] deeds.
