Psalms 9:9-16

⁹The LORD will also be a high tower for the oppressed; a high tower in times of trouble.

¹⁰Those who know your name will put their trust in you, for you, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.

¹¹Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion, and declare amongst the people what he has done.

¹²For he who avenges blood remembers them. He doesn’t forget the cry of the afflicted.

¹³Have mercy on me, LORD. See my affliction by those who hate me, and lift me up from the gates of death,

¹⁴that I may show all of your praise. I will rejoice in your salvation in the gates of the daughter of Zion.

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

¹⁶The LORD has made himself known. He has executed judgement. The wicked is snared by the work of his own hands. Meditation. Selah.
