9:1  For the Music Director. To the melody of “The Death of the Son.” A Psalm of David. I will give thanks to You, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will declare all Your marvelous works.
9:2  I will be glad and rejoice in You; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High.
9:3  When my enemies are turned back, they will stumble and perish at Your presence.
9:4  For You have maintained my right and my cause; You sat on the throne judging what is right.
9:5  You have rebuked the nations, You have destroyed the wicked, You have wiped out their name forever and ever.
9:6  O you enemy, destructions have come to you for a perpetual end. You have destroyed cities; their memory perished with them.
9:7  But the Lord remains forever; He has established His throne for judgment.
9:8  He will judge the world in righteousness; He will give judgment to the peoples in uprightness.
9:9  The Lord also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
9:10  Those who know Your name will put their trust in You, for You, Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You.
9:11  Sing praises to the Lord who dwells in Zion; declare His deeds among the people.
9:12  He who avenges deaths remembers them; He does not forget the cry of the humble.
9:13  Be gracious to me, O Lord; consider my trouble from those who hate me, O You who lifts me up from the gates of death,
9:14  that I may recount all Your praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion, that I may rejoice in Your salvation.
9:15  The nations have sunk down in the pit that they made; their own foot is caught in the net which they hid.
9:16  The Lord is known by the judgment that He executes; the wicked one is snared in the work of his own hands. Meditation. Selah
9:17  The wicked will be turned to Sheol, and all the nations that forget God.
9:18  For the needy will not always be forgotten, nor will the hope of the poor perish forever.
9:19  Arise, O Lord, may mortals not prevail; let the nations be judged in Your sight.
9:20  Put them in fear, O Lord, that the nations themselves may know they are mortals. Selah
