Psa 9:2I will be glad and have delight in you: I will make a song of praise to your name, O Most High.

Psa 9:3

Psa 9:3When my haters are turned back, they will be broken and overcome before you.

Psa 9:4

Psa 9:4For you gave approval to my right and my cause; you were seated in your high place judging in righteousness.

Psa 9:5You have said sharp words to the nations, you have sent destruction on the sinners, you have put an end to their name for ever and ever.

Psa 9:6

Psa 9:6You have given their towns to destruction; the memory of them has gone; they have become waste for ever.

Psa 9:7

Psa 9:7But the Lord is King for ever: he has made ready his high seat for judging.

Psa 9:9The Lord will be a high tower for those who are crushed down, a high tower in times of trouble;

Psa 9:10

Psa 9:10And those who have knowledge of your name will put their faith in you; because you, Lord, have ever given your help to those who were waiting for you.

Psa 9:11Make songs of praise to the Lord, whose house is in Zion: make his doings clear to the people.

Psa 9:12

Psa 9:12When he makes search for blood, he has them in his memory: he is not without thought for the cry of the poor.

Psa 9:13Have mercy on me, O Lord, and see how I am troubled by my haters; let me be lifted up from the doors of death;

Psa 9:14

Psa 9:14So that I may make clear all your praise in the house of the daughter of Zion: I will be glad because of your salvation.

Psa 9:15The nations have gone down into the hole which they made: in their secret net is their foot taken.

Psa 9:16

Psa 9:16The Lord has given knowledge of himself through his judging: the evil-doer is taken in the net which his hands had made. (Higgaion. Selah.)

Psa 9:17

Psa 9:17The sinners and all the nations who have no memory of God will be turned into the underworld.

Psa 9:19Up! O Lord; let not man overcome you: let the nations be judged before you.
