PSALMS 9:12-20

¹²For he that maketh inquisition for blood remembereth them: he forgetteth not the cry of the poor.

¹³Have mercy upon me, O LORD; behold my affliction which I suffer of them that hate me, thou that liftest me up from the gates of death;

¹⁴That I may shew forth all thy praise: in the gates of the daughter of Zion, I will rejoice in thy salvation.

¹⁵The nations are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.

¹⁶The LORD hath made himself known, he hath executed judgment: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higaion. Selah

¹⁷The wicked shall return to Sheol, even all the nations that forget God.

¹⁸For the needy shall not alway be forgotten, nor the expectation of the poor perish for ever.

¹⁹Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail: let the nations be judged in thy sight.

²⁰Put them in fear, O LORD: let the nations know themselves to be but men. Selah
