9:1  For the choir director. Almuth-labben. A Psalm of David. I will give thanks to Yahweh with all my heart; I will recount all Your wondrous deeds.
9:2  I will be glad and exult in You; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High.
9:3  When my enemies turn back, They stumble and perish before You.
9:4  For You have maintained my justice and my cause; You have sat on the throne judging righteously.
9:5  You have rebuked the nations, You have made the wicked perish; You have blotted out their name forever and ever.
9:6  The enemy has come to an end in perpetual ruins, And You have uprooted the cities; The very memory of them has perished.
9:7  But Yahweh abides forever; He has established His throne for judgment,
9:8  And He will judge the world in righteousness; He will render justice for the peoples with equity.
9:9  Yahweh also will be a stronghold for the oppressed, A stronghold in times of distress;
9:10  And those who know Your name will put their trust in You, For You, O Yahweh, have not forsaken those who seek You.
9:11  Sing praises to Yahweh, who abides in Zion; Declare among the peoples His acts.
9:12  For He who requires blood remembers them; He does not forget the cry of the afflicted.
9:13  Be gracious to me, O Yahweh; See my affliction from those who hate me, You who lift me up from the gates of death,
9:14  That I may recount all Your praises, That in the gates of the daughter of Zion I may rejoice in Your salvation.
9:15  The nations have sunk down in the pit which they have made; In the net which they hid, their own foot has been caught.
9:16  Yahweh has made Himself known; He has executed judgment. In the work of his own hands the wicked is snared. Higgaion Selah.
9:17  The wicked will return to Sheol, Even all the nations who forget God.
9:18  For the needy will not always be forgotten, Nor the hope of the afflicted perish forever.
9:19  Arise, O Yahweh, do not let man prevail; Let the nations be judged before You.
9:20  Put them in fear, O Yahweh; Let the nations know that they are but men. Selah.
