9:1  To the Overseer, `On the Death of Labben.' -- A Psalm of David. I confess, O Jehovah, with all my heart, I recount all Thy wonders,
9:2  I rejoice and exult in Thee, I praise Thy Name, O Most High.
9:3  In mine enemies turning backward, they stumble and perish from Thy face.
9:4  For Thou hast done my judgment and my right. Thou hast sat on a throne, A judge of righteousness.
9:5  Thou hast rebuked nations, Thou hast destroyed the wicked, Their name Thou hast blotted out to the age and for ever.
9:6  O thou Enemy, Finished have been destructions for ever, As to cities thou hast plucked up, Perished hath their memorial with them.
9:7  And Jehovah to the age abideth, He is preparing for judgment His throne.
9:8  And He judgeth the world in righteousness, He judgeth the peoples in uprightness.
9:9  And Jehovah is a tower for the bruised, A tower for times of adversity.
9:10  They trust in Thee who do know Thy name, For Thou hast not forsaken Those seeking Thee, O Jehovah.
9:11  Sing ye praise to Jehovah, inhabiting Zion, Declare ye among the peoples His acts,
9:12  For He who is seeking for blood Them hath remembered, He hath not forgotten the cry of the afflicted.
9:13  Favour me, O Jehovah, See mine affliction by those hating me, Thou who liftest me up from the gates of death,
9:14  So that I recount all Thy praise, In the gates of the daughter of Zion. I rejoice on Thy salvation.
9:15  Sunk have nations in a pit they made, In a net that they hid hath their foot been captured.
9:16  Jehovah hath been known, Judgment He hath done, By a work of his hands Hath the wicked been snared. Meditation. Selah.
9:17  The wicked do turn back to Sheol, All nations forgetting God.
9:18  For not for ever is the needy forgotten, The hope of the humble lost to the age.
9:19  Rise, O Jehovah, let not man be strong, Let nations be judged before Thy face.
9:20  Appoint, O Jehovah, a director to them, Let nations know they [are] men! Selah.
