Psalm 9 :: New King James Version (NKJV)

Prayer and Thanksgiving for the LORD’s Righteous Judgments

Psa 9:1To the Chief Musician. To the tune of “Death of the Son.”[fn] A Psalm of David.

I will praise You, O LORD, with my whole heart;
I will tell of all Your marvelous works.

Psa 9:2

Psa 9:2I will be glad and rejoice in You;
I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High.

Psa 9:3

Psa 9:3When my enemies turn back,
They shall fall and perish at Your presence.

Psa 9:4

Psa 9:4For You have maintained my right and my cause;
You sat on the throne judging in righteousness.

Psa 9:5

Psa 9:5You have rebuked the nations,
You have destroyed the wicked;
You have blotted out their name forever and ever.

Psa 9:6

Psa 9:6O enemy, destructions are finished forever!
And you have destroyed cities;
Even their memory has perished.

Psa 9:7

Psa 9:7But the LORD shall endure forever;
He has prepared His throne for judgment.

Psa 9:8

Psa 9:8He shall judge the world in righteousness,
And He shall administer judgment for the peoples in uprightness.

Psa 9:9

Psa 9:9The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed,
A refuge in times of trouble.

Psa 9:10

Psa 9:10And those who know Your name will put their trust in You;
For You, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek You.

Psa 9:11

Psa 9:11Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion!
Declare His deeds among the people.

Psa 9:12

Psa 9:12When He avenges blood, He remembers them;
He does not forget the cry of the humble.

Psa 9:13

Psa 9:13Have mercy on me, O LORD!
Consider my trouble from those who hate me,
You who lift me up from the gates of death,

Psa 9:14

Psa 9:14That I may tell of all Your praise
In the gates of the daughter of Zion.
I will rejoice in Your salvation.

Psa 9:15

Psa 9:15The nations have sunk down in the pit which they made;
In the net which they hid, their own foot is caught.

Psa 9:16

Psa 9:16The LORD is known by the judgment He executes;
The wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Meditation.[fn] Selah

Psa 9:17

Psa 9:17The wicked shall be turned into hell,
And all the nations that forget God.

Psa 9:18

Psa 9:18For the needy shall not always be forgotten;
The expectation of the poor shall not perish forever.

Psa 9:19

Psa 9:19Arise, O LORD,
Do not let man prevail;
Let the nations be judged in Your sight.

Psa 9:20

Psa 9:20Put them in fear, O LORD,
That the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah
