9:1  {To the chief Musician. Upon Muthlabben. A Psalm of David.} I will praise Jehovah with my whole heart; I will recount all thy marvellous works.
9:2  I will be glad and rejoice in thee; I will sing forth thy name, O Most High.
9:3  When mine enemies turned back, they stumbled and perished at thy presence:
9:4  For thou hast maintained my right and my cause. Thou sittest on the throne, judging righteously.
9:5  Thou hast rebuked the nations, thou hast destroyed the wicked; thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.
9:6  O enemy! destructions are ended for ever. Thou hast also destroyed cities, even the remembrance of them hath perished.
9:7  But Jehovah sitteth for ever; he hath ordained his throne for judgment.
9:8  And it is he that will judge the world with righteousness; he shall execute judgment upon the peoples with equity.
9:9  And Jehovah will be a refuge to the oppressed one, a refuge in times of distress.
9:10  And they that know thy name will confide in thee; for thou, Jehovah, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
9:11  Sing psalms to Jehovah who dwelleth in Zion; tell among the peoples his doings.
9:12  For when he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them; the cry of the afflicted ones hath he not forgotten.
9:13  Be gracious unto me, O Jehovah; consider mine affliction from them that hate me, lifting me up from the gates of death:
9:14  That I may declare all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion. I will be joyful in thy salvation.
9:15  The nations are sunk down in the pit that they made; in the net that they hid is their own foot taken.
9:16  Jehovah is known by the judgment he hath executed: the wicked is ensnared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.
9:17  The wicked shall be turned into Sheol, all the nations that forget God.
9:18  For the needy one shall not be forgotten alway; the hope of the meek shall not perish for ever.
9:19  Arise, Jehovah; let not man prevail: let the nations be judged in thy sight.
9:20  Put them in fear, Jehovah: that the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah.
