Psalms 9
1 TO THE OVERSEER. [SET] ON “DEATH OF THE SON.” A PSALM OF DAVID. I confess, O YHWH, with all my heart, I recount all Your wonders,
To him that excelleth vpon Muth Laben. A Psalme of Dauid. I will praise the Lord with my whole heart: I will speake of all thy marueilous workes.
2 I rejoice and exult in You, I praise Your Name, O Most High.
I will bee glad, and reioyce in thee: I will sing praise to thy Name, O most High,
3 In my enemies turning backward, They stumble and perish from Your face.
For that mine enemies are turned backe: they shall fall, and perish at thy presence.
4 For You have done my judgment and my right. You have sat on a throne, Judging [with] righteousness.
For thou hast maintained my right and my cause: thou art set in the throne, and iudgest right.
5 You have rebuked nations, You have destroyed the wicked, You have blotted out their name for all time and forever.
Thou hast rebuked the heathen: thou hast destroyed the wicked: thou hast put out their name for euer and euer.
6 The enemy—[your] destructions have been completed forever, As for cities you have plucked up, Their memorial has perished with them.
O enemie, destructions are come to a perpetual end, and thou hast destroyed the cities: their memoriall is perished with them.
7 And YHWH abides for all time, He is preparing His throne for judgment.
But the Lord shall sit for euer: hee hath prepared his throne for iudgement.
8 And He judges the world in righteousness, He judges the peoples in uprightness.
For he shall iudge the worlde in righteousnes, and shall iudge the people with equitie.
9 And YHWH is a tower for the bruised, A tower for times of adversity.
The Lord also wil be a refuge for the poore, a refuge in due time, euen in affliction.
10 They trust in You who know Your Name, For You have not forsaken those seeking You, O YHWH.
And they that know thy Name, will trust in thee: for thou, Lord, hast not failed them that seeke thee.
11 Sing praise to YHWH, inhabiting Zion, Declare His acts among the peoples,
Sing praises to the Lord, which dwelleth in Zion: shewe the people his workes.
12 For He who is seeking for blood Has remembered them, He has not forgotten the cry of the afflicted.
For whe he maketh inquisition for blood, hee remembreth it, and forgetteth not the complaint of the poore.
13 Favor me, O YHWH, See my affliction by those hating me, You who lift me up from the gates of death,
Haue mercie vpon mee, O Lord: consider my trouble which I suffer of them that hate mee, thou that liftest me vp from the gates of death,
14 So that I recount all Your praise, In the gates of the daughter of Zion. I rejoice on Your salvation.
That I may shewe all thy praises within the gates of the daughter of Zion, and reioyce in thy saluation.
15 Nations have sunk in a pit they made, Their foot has been captured in a net that they hid.
The heathen are sunken downe in the pit that they made: in the nette that they hid, is their foote taken.
16 YHWH has been known, He has done judgment; By a work of his hands The wicked has been snared. (Meditation, Selah)
The Lord is knowen by executing iudgement: the wicked is snared in the worke of his owne handes. (Higgaion, Selah)
The wicked shall turne into hell, and all nations that forget God. (Sheol h7585)
18 For the needy is not forgotten forever, [Nor] the hope of the humble lost for all time.
For the poore shall not bee alway forgotten: the hope of the afflicted shall not perish for euer.
19 Rise, O YHWH, do not let man be strong, Let nations be judged before Your face.
Vp Lord: let not man preuaile: let the heathen be iudged in thy sight.
20 Appoint them to fear, O YHWH, Let nations know they [are] men! (Selah)
Put them in feare, O Lord, that the heathen may knowe that they are but men. (Selah)
