Psalms 9
Ready to read
2
I will rejoice and boast about You; ⓑ I will sing about Your name, Most High. ⓒ
3
When my enemies retreat, they stumble and perish before You. ⓓ
4
For You have upheld my just cause; [2] ⓔ You are seated on Your throne as a righteous judge. ⓕ
5
You have rebuked the nations: ⓖ You have destroyed the wicked; ⓗ You have erased their name forever and ever. ⓘ
6
The enemy has come to eternal ruin; You have uprooted the cities, and the very memory of them has perished. ⓙ
7
But the LORD sits enthroned forever; ⓚ He has established His throne for judgment. ⓛ
8
He judges the world with righteousness; He executes judgment on the nations with fairness. ⓜ
9
The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble. ⓝ
10
Those who know Your name trust in You because You have not abandoned those who seek You, Yahweh. ⓞ
11
Sing to the LORD, who dwells in Zion; ⓟ proclaim His deeds among the nations. ⓠ
12
For the One who seeks an accounting for bloodshed remembers them; ⓡ He does not forget the cry of the afflicted. ⓢ
13
Be gracious to me, LORD; consider my affliction at the hands of those who hate me. ⓣ Lift me up from the gates of death, ⓤ
14
so that I may declare all Your praises. I will rejoice in Your salvation ⓥ within the gates of Daughter Zion.
15
The nations have fallen into the pit they made; their foot is caught in the net they have concealed. ⓦ
16
The LORD has revealed Himself; He has executed justice, ⓧ striking down [3] the wicked [4] by the work of their hands. ⓨ Higgaion. Selah
17
The wicked will return to Sheol ⓩ — all the nations that forget God. ⓐ
18
For the oppressed will not always be forgotten; the hope of the afflicted [5] will not perish forever. ⓑ
19
Rise up, LORD! Do not let man prevail; let the nations be judged in Your presence. ⓒ
20
Put terror in them, LORD; ⓓ let the nations know they are only men. ⓔ Selah
