Psalms 9:12-20

¹²Sing praises to the Lord, who dwells in Zion: Declare his dealings among the nations.

¹³For he remembered them, in making inquisition for blood: He has not forgotten the supplication of the poor.

¹⁴Have mercy upon me, O Lord; look upon my affliction which I suffer of mine enemies, Thou that liftest me up from the gates of death:

¹⁵That I may declare all thy praises In the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will exult in thy salvation.

¹⁶The heathen are caught in the destruction which they planned: In the very snare which they hid is their foot taken.

¹⁷The Lord is known as executing judgments: The sinner is taken in the works of his hands. A song of Pause.

¹⁸Let sinners be driven away into Hades, Even all the nations that forget God.

¹⁹For the poor shall not be forgotten forever: The patience of the needy ones shall not perish forever.

²⁰Arise, O Lord, let not man prevail: Let the heathen be judged before thee.
