PSALM 9
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
To the chief Musician upon Muth-labben,
A Psalm of David.
1Lord, thee I'll praise with all my heart,
thy wonders all proclaim.
2In thee, most High, I'll greatly joy,
and sing unto thy name.
3When back my foes were turn'd, they fell,
and perish'd at thy sight:
4For thou maintain'dst my right and cause;
on throne sat'st judging right.
5The heathen thou rebuked hast,
the wicked overthrown;
Thou hast put out their names, that they
may never more be known.
6O en'my! now destructions have
an end perpetual:
Thou cities raz'd; perish'd with them
is their memorial.
7God shall endure for aye; he doth
for judgment set his throne;
8In righteousness to judge the world,
justice to give each one.
9God also will a refuge be
for those that are oppress'd;
A refuge will he be in times
of trouble to distress'd.
10And they that know thy name, in thee
their confidence will place:
For thou hast not forsaken them
that truly seek thy face.
11O sing ye praises to the Lord,
that dwells in Sion hill;
And all the nations among
his deeds record ye still.
12When he enquireth after blood,
he then rememb'reth them:
The humble folk he not forgets
that call upon his name.
13Lord, pity me; behold the grief
which I from foes sustain;
Ev'n thou, who from the gates of death
dost raise me up again;
14That I, in Sion's daughters' gates,
may all thy praise advance;
And that I may rejoice always
in thy deliverance.
15The heathen are sunk in the pit
which they themselves prepar'd;
And in the net which they have hid
their own feet fast are snar'd.
16The Lord is by the judgment known
which he himself hath wrought:
The sinners' hands do make the snares
wherewith themselves are caught.
17They who are wicked into hell
each one shall turned be;
And all the nations that forget
to seek the Lord most high.
18For they that needy are shall not
forgotten be alway;
The expectation of the poor
shall not be lost for aye.
19Arise, Lord, let not man prevail;
judge heathen in thy sight:
20That they may know themselves but men,
the nations, Lord, affright.

Psalms 9
9
To the Heavenly Worship Leader upon the death of Labban [the son], A Psalm (sacred song about or to God) of David [Beloved].
1I will praise [youi], O Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], with my whole heart; I will show forth all youri marvelous works.
2I will be glad and rejoice in youi: I will sing praise to youri name, O youi most High.
3When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at youri presence.
4For youi have maintained my right and my cause; youi sat in the throne judging right.
5youi have rebuked the heathen, youi have destroyed the wicked, youi have put out their name forever and ever.
6O youi enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and youi have destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them.
7But the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] shall endure forever: he has prepared his throne for judgment.
8And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.
9The Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
10And they that know youri name will put their trust in youi: for youi, Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], have not forsaken them that seek youi.
11Sing praises to the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], which dwells in Tziyon [Parched Place]: declare among the people his doings.
12When he makes inquisition for blood, he remembers them: he forgets not the cry of the humble.
13Have mercy upon me, O Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate]; consider my trouble [which I suffer] of them that hate me, youi that lifts me up from the gates of death:
14That I may show forth all youri praise in the gates of the daughter of Tziyon [Parched Place]: I will rejoice in youri salvation.
15The heathen are sunk down in the pit [that] they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.
16The Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] is known [by] the judgment [which] he executes: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgayon [meditation] Selah [stop and diligently consider what was just said].
17The wicked shall be turned into hell, [and] all the nations that forget God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered].
18For the needy shall not always be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall [not] perish forever.
19Arise, O Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate]; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in youri sight.
20Put them in fear, O Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate]: [that] the nations may know themselves [to be but] men. Selah [stop and diligently consider what was just said].
