Psalms 9
1 For the Chief Musician; set to Muth-labben. A Psalm of David. I will give thanks unto Jehovah with my whole heart; I will show forth all thy marvellous works.
In finem pro occultis filii, Psalmus David. Confitebor tibi Domine in toto corde meo: narrabo omnia mirabilia tua.
2 I will be glad and exult in thee; I will sing praise to thy name, O thou Most High.
Lætabor et exultabo in te: psallam nomini tuo Altissime,
3 When mine enemies turn back, They stumble and perish at thy presence.
In convertendo inimicum meum retrorsum: infirmabuntur, et peribunt a facie tua.
4 For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; Thou sittest in the throne judging righteously.
Quoniam fecisti iudicium meum et causam meam: sedisti super thronum qui iudicas iustitiam.
5 Thou hast rebuked the nations, thou hast destroyed the wicked; Thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever.
Increpasti Gentes, et periit impius: nomen eorum delesti in æternum et in sæculum sæculi.
6 The enemy are come to an end, they are desolate for ever; And the cities which thou hast overthrown, The very remembrance of them is perished.
Inimici defecerunt frameæ in finem: et civitates eorum destruxisti. Periit memoria eorum cum sonitu:
7 But Jehovah sitteth [as king] for ever: He hath prepared his throne for judgment;
et Dominus in æternum permanet. Paravit in iudicio thronum suum:
8 And he will judge the world in righteousness, He will minister judgment to the peoples in uprightness.
et ipse iudicabit orbem terræ in æquitate, iudicabit populos in iustitia.
9 Jehovah also will be a high tower for the oppressed, A high tower in times of trouble;
Et factus est Dominus refugium pauperi: adiutor in opportunitatibus, in tribulatione.
10 And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee; For thou, Jehovah, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
Et sperent in te qui noverunt nomen tuum: quoniam non dereliquisti quærentes te Domine.
11 Sing praises to Jehovah, who dwelleth in Zion: Declare among the people his doings.
Psallite Domino, qui habitat in Sion: annunciate inter Gentes studia eius:
12 For he that maketh inquisition for blood remembereth them; He forgetteth not the cry of the poor.
Quoniam requirens sanguinem eorum recordatus est: non est oblitus clamorem pauperum.
13 Have mercy upon me, O Jehovah; Behold my affliction [which I suffer] of them that hate me, Thou that liftest me up from the gates of death;
Miserere mei Domine: vide humilitatem meam de inimicis meis.
14 That I may show forth all thy praise. In the gates of the daughter of Zion I will rejoice in thy salvation.
Qui exaltas me de portis mortis, ut annunciem omnes laudationes tuas in portis filiæ Sion.
15 The nations are sunk down in the pit that they made: In the net which they hid is their own foot taken.
Exultabo in salutari tuo: infixæ sunt Gentes in interitu, quem fecerunt. In laqueo isto, quem absconderunt, comprehensus est pes eorum.
16 Jehovah hath made himself known, he hath executed judgment: The wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. (Higgaion, Selah)
Cognoscetur Dominus iudicia faciens: in operibus manuum suarum comprehensus est peccator.
Convertantur peccatores in infernum, omnes Gentes quæ obliviscuntur Deum. (Sheol h7585)
18 For the needy shall not alway be forgotten, Nor the expectation of the poor perish for ever.
Quoniam non in finem oblivio erit pauperis: patientia pauperum non peribit in finem.
19 Arise, O Jehovah; let not man prevail: Let the nations be judged in thy sight.
Exurge Domine, non confortetur homo: iudicentur Gentes in conspectu tuo:
20 Put them in fear, O Jehovah: Let the nations know themselves to be but men. (Selah)
Constitue Domine legislatorem super eos: ut sciant Gentes quoniam homines sunt.
