I Will Recount Your Wonderful Deeds
|
|
|
|
# Chapter 9
|
|
1. I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart;
|
|
I will recount all of your wonderful deeds.
|
|
|
|
2. I will be glad and exult in you;
|
|
I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
|
|
|
|
3. When my enemies turn back,
|
|
they stumble and perish before your presence.
|
|
|
|
4. For you have maintained my just cause;
|
|
you have sat on the throne, giving righteous judgment.
|
|
|
|
5. You have rebuked the nations; you have made the wicked perish;
|
|
you have blotted out their name forever and ever.
|
|
|
|
6. The enemy came to an end in everlasting ruins;
|
|
their cities you rooted out;
|
|
the very memory of them has perished.
|
|
|
|
7. But the LORD sits enthroned forever;
|
|
he has established his throne for justice,
|
|
|
|
8. and he judges the world with righteousness;
|
|
he judges the peoples with uprightness.
|
|
|
|
9. The LORD is a stronghold for the oppressed,
|
|
a stronghold in times of trouble.
|
|
|
|
10. And those who know your name put their trust in you,
|
|
for you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.
|
|
|
|
11. Sing praises to the LORD, who sits enthroned in Zion!
|
|
Tell among the peoples his deeds!
|
|
|
|
12. For he who avenges blood is mindful of them;
|
|
he does not forget the cry of the afflicted.
|
|
|
|
13. Be gracious to me, O LORD!
|
|
See my affliction from those who hate me,
|
|
O you who lift me up from the gates of death,
|
|
|
|
14. that I may recount all your praises,
|
|
that in the gates of the daughter of Zion
|
|
I may rejoice in your salvation.
|
|
|
|
15. The nations have sunk in the pit that they made;
|
|
in the net that they hid, their own foot has been caught.
|
|
|
|
16. The LORD has made himself known; he has executed judgment;
|
|
the wicked are snared in the work of their own hands. Higgaion. Selah
|
|
|
|
17. The wicked shall return to Sheol,
|
|
all the nations that forget God.
|
|
|
|
18. For the needy shall not always be forgotten,
|
|
and the hope of the poor shall not perish forever.
|
|
|
|
19. Arise, O LORD! Let not man prevail;
|
|
let the nations be judged before you!
|
|
|
|
20. Put them in fear, O LORD!
|
|
Let the nations know that they are but men! Selah
