Psalms - Chapter 9 | New King James Version

  • 1. To the Chief Musician. To the tune of 'Death of the Son.' {cf2super [10]} A Psalm of David. I will praise You, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will tell of all Your marvelous works.
  • 2. I will be glad and rejoice in You; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High.
  • 3. When my enemies turn back, They shall fall and perish at Your presence.
  • 4. For You have maintained my right and my cause; You sat on the throne judging in righteousness.
  • 5. You have rebuked the nations, You have destroyed the wicked; You have blotted out their name forever and ever.
  • 6. O enemy, destructions are finished forever! And you have destroyed cities; Even their memory has perished.
  • 7. But the Lord shall endure forever; He has prepared His throne for judgment.
  • 8. He shall judge the world in righteousness, And He shall administer judgment for the peoples in uprightness.
  • 9. The Lord also will be a refuge for the oppressed, A refuge in times of trouble.
  • 10. And those who know Your name will put their trust in You; For You, Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You.
  • 11. Sing praises to the Lord, who dwells in Zion! Declare His deeds among the people.
  • 12. When He avenges blood, He remembers them; He does not forget the cry of the humble.
  • 13. Have mercy on me, O Lord! Consider my trouble from those who hate me, You who lift me up from the gates of death,
  • 14. That I may tell of all Your praise In the gates of the daughter of Zion. I will rejoice in Your salvation.
  • 15. The nations have sunk down in the pit which they made; In the net which they hid, their own foot is caught.
  • 16. The Lord is known by the judgment He executes; The wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Meditation. {cf2super [11]} Selah
  • 17. The wicked shall be turned into hell, And all the nations that forget God.
  • 18. For the needy shall not always be forgotten; The expectation of the poor shall not perish forever.
  • 19. Arise, O Lord, Do not let man prevail; Let the nations be judged in Your sight.
  • 20. Put them in fear, O Lord, That the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah
