Psalms 9:3-13

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 forever, even forever 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 forever: 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.

¹¹And let them that know thy name hope in thee: For thou, O Lord, hast not failed them that diligently seek thee.

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.
