Psalms 9:1-10

¹For the end, a Psalm of David, concerning the secrets of the Son.

²I will give thanks to thee, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will recount all thy wonderful works.

³I will be glad and exult in thee: I will sing to thy name, O thou Most High.

⁴When mine enemies are turned back, they shall be feeble and perish at thy presence.

⁵For thou hast maintained my cause and my right; thou satest on the throne, that judgest righteousness.

⁶Thou hast rebuked the nations, and the ungodly one has perished; thou hast blotted out their name for ever, even for ever and ever.

⁷The swords of the enemy have failed utterly; and thou hast destroyed cities: their memorial has been destroyed with a noise,

⁸but the Lord endures for ever: he has prepared his throne for judgment.

⁹And he will judge the world in righteousness, he will judge the nations in uprightness.

¹⁰The Lord also is become a refuge for the poor, a seasonable help, in affliction.
