< Psalms 9 >

1 [For the choir director; according to Muth-labben. A Psalm by David.] I will give thanks to YHWH with my whole heart. I will tell of all your marvelous works.
לַמְנַצֵּחַ עַל־מוּת לַבֵּן מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִֽד׃ אוֹדֶה יְהֹוָה בְּכׇל־לִבִּי אֲסַפְּרָה כׇּל־נִפְלְאוֹתֶֽיךָ׃
2 I will be glad and rejoice in you. I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
אֶשְׂמְחָה וְאֶעֶלְצָה בָךְ אֲזַמְּרָה שִׁמְךָ עֶלְיֽוֹן׃
3 When my enemies turn back, they stumble and perish in your presence.
בְּשׁוּב־אוֹיְבַי אָחוֹר יִכָּשְׁלוּ וְיֹאבְדוּ מִפָּנֶֽיךָ׃
4 For you have upheld my just cause. You sit on the throne judging righteously.
כִּֽי־עָשִׂיתָ מִשְׁפָּטִי וְדִינִי יָשַׁבְתָּ לְכִסֵּא שׁוֹפֵט צֶֽדֶק׃
5 You have rebuked the nations. You have destroyed the wicked. You have blotted out their name forever and ever.
גָּעַרְתָּ גוֹיִם אִבַּדְתָּ רָשָׁע שְׁמָם מָחִיתָ לְעוֹלָם וָעֶֽד׃
6 The enemy is overtaken by endless ruin; and the very memory of the cities which you have overthrown has perished.
הָֽאוֹיֵב ׀ תַּמּוּ חֳרָבוֹת לָנֶצַח וְעָרִים נָתַשְׁתָּ אָבַד זִכְרָם הֵֽמָּה׃
7 But YHWH reigns forever. He has prepared his throne for judgment.
וַֽיהֹוָה לְעוֹלָם יֵשֵׁב כּוֹנֵן לַמִּשְׁפָּט כִּסְאֽוֹ׃
8 And he will judge the world in righteousness. He will judge the peoples with equity.
וְהוּא יִשְׁפֹּֽט־תֵּבֵל בְּצֶדֶק יָדִין לְאֻמִּים בְּמֵישָׁרִֽים׃
9 YHWH will also be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
וִיהִי יְהֹוָה מִשְׂגָּב לַדָּךְ מִשְׂגָּב לְעִתּוֹת בַּצָּרָֽה׃
10 And those who know your name will put their trust in you, for you, YHWH, have not forsaken those who seek you.
וְיִבְטְחוּ בְךָ יוֹדְעֵי שְׁמֶךָ כִּי לֹֽא־עָזַבְתָּ דֹרְשֶׁיךָ יְהֹוָֽה׃
11 Sing praises to YHWH, who dwells in Zion, and declare among the people what he has done.
זַמְּרוּ לַיהֹוָה יֹשֵׁב צִיּוֹן הַגִּידוּ בָעַמִּים עֲלִֽילוֹתָֽיו׃
12 For he who takes revenge against murderers remembers them. He doesn't forget the cry of the afflicted.
כִּֽי־דֹרֵשׁ דָּמִים אוֹתָם זָכָר לֹֽא־שָׁכַח צַעֲקַת (עניים) [עֲנָוִֽים]׃
13 Have mercy on me, YHWH. See my affliction by those who hate me. You lift me up from the gates of death,
חָֽנְנֵנִי יְהֹוָה רְאֵה עׇנְיִי מִשֹּׂנְאָי מְרוֹמְמִי מִשַּׁעֲרֵי מָֽוֶת׃
14 so that I may tell all your praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion. I will rejoice in your salvation.
לְמַעַן אֲסַפְּרָה כׇּֽל־תְּהִלָּתֶיךָ בְּשַׁעֲרֵי בַת־צִיּוֹן אָגִילָה בִּישֽׁוּעָתֶֽךָ׃
15 The nations have fallen into the pit they had made. In the net which they hid, their feet are caught.
טָבְעוּ גוֹיִם בְּשַׁחַת עָשׂוּ בְּרֶֽשֶׁת־זוּ טָמָנוּ נִלְכְּדָה רַגְלָֽם׃
16 YHWH has made himself known. He has executed judgment. The wicked is snared by the work of his own hands. (Higgaion, Selah)
נוֹדַע ׀ יְהֹוָה מִשְׁפָּט עָשָׂה בְּפֹעַל כַּפָּיו נוֹקֵשׁ רָשָׁע הִגָּיוֹן סֶֽלָה׃
17 The wicked shall be turned back to Sheol, even all the nations that forget God. (Sheol h7585)
יָשׁוּבוּ רְשָׁעִים לִשְׁאוֹלָה כׇּל־גּוֹיִם שְׁכֵחֵי אֱלֹהִֽים׃ (Sheol h7585)
18 For the needy shall not always be forgotten; the hope of the poor shall not perish forever.
כִּי לֹא לָנֶצַח יִשָּׁכַח אֶבְיוֹן תִּקְוַת (ענוים) [עֲנִיִּים] תֹּאבַד לָעַֽד׃
19 Arise, YHWH. Do not let man prevail. Let the nations be judged in your presence.
קוּמָה יְהֹוָה אַל־יָעֹז אֱנוֹשׁ יִשָּׁפְטוּ גוֹיִם עַל־פָּנֶֽיךָ׃
20 Terrify them, YHWH. Let the nations know that they are only human. (Selah)
שִׁיתָה יְהֹוָה ׀ מוֹרָה לָהֶם יֵדְעוּ גוֹיִם אֱנוֹשׁ הֵמָּה סֶּֽלָה׃
