Psalms 9 — UBES
9Verse 1For the end, a Psalm of David, concerning the secrets of the Son.Verse 2I will give thanks to thee, O Lord, with my whole heart;
I will recount all thy wonderful works.
Verse 3I will be glad and exult in thee:
I will sing to thy name, O thou Most High.Verse 4When mine enemies are turned back,
They shall be feeble and perish at thy presence.
Verse 5For thou hast maintained my cause and my right;
Thou satest on the throne, that judgest righteousness.
Verse 6Thou hast rebuked the nations, and the ungodly one has perished;
Thou hast blotted out their name forever, even forever and ever.
Verse 7The swords of the enemy have failed utterly; and thou hast destroyed cities:
Their memorial has been destroyed with a noise,
Verse 8But the Lord endures forever:
He has prepared his throne for judgment.
Verse 9And he will judge the world in righteousness,
He will judge the nations in uprightness.
Verse 10The Lord also is become a refuge for the poor,
A seasonable help, in affliction.
Verse 11And let them that know thy name hope in thee:
For thou, O Lord, hast not failed them that diligently seek thee.Verse 12Sing praises to the Lord, who dwells in Zion:
Declare his dealings among the nations.
Verse 13For he remembered them, in making inquisition for blood:
He has not forgotten the supplication of the poor.Verse 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:
Verse 15That I may declare all thy praises
In the gates of the daughter of Zion:
I will exult in thy salvation.Verse 16The heathen are caught in the destruction which they planned:
In the very snare which they hid is their foot taken.
Verse 17The Lord is known as executing judgments:
The sinner is taken in the works of his hands. A song of Pause.
Verse 18Let sinners be driven away into Hades,
Even all the nations that forget God.
Verse 19For the poor shall not be forgotten forever:
The patience of the needy ones shall not perish forever.
Verse 20Arise, O Lord, let not man prevail:
Let the heathen be judged before thee.
Verse 21Appoint, O Lord, a lawgiver over them:
Let the heathen know that they are men. Pause.Verse 22Why standest thou afar off, O Lord?
Why dost thou overlook us in times of need, in affliction?
Verse 23While the ungodly one acts proudly, the poor is hotly pursued:
The wicked are taken in the crafty counsels which they imagine.
Verse 24Because the sinner praises himself for the desires of his heart;
And the unjust one blesses himself.
Verse 25The sinner has provoked the Lord:
According to the abundance of his pride he will not seek after him:
God is not before him.
Verse 26His ways are profane at all times;
Thy judgments are removed from before him:
He will gain the mastery over all his enemies.
Verse 27For he has said in his heart, I shall not be moved,
Continuing without evil from generation to generation.
Verse 28Whose mouth is full of cursing, and bitterness, and fraud:
Under his tongue are trouble and pain.
Verse 29He lies in wait with rich men
In secret places, in order to slay the innocent:
His eyes are set against the poor.
Verse 30He lies in wait in secret as a lion in his den:
He lies in wait to ravish the poor,
To ravish the poor when he draws him after him:
He will bring him down in his snare.
Verse 31He will bow down and fall when he has mastered the poor.
Verse 32For he has said in his heart, God has forgotten:
He has turned away his face so as never to look.Verse 33Arise, O Lord God; let thy hand be lifted up:
Forget not the poor.
Verse 34Wherefore has the wicked provoked God?
For he has said in his heart, He will not require it.
Verse 35Thou seest it; for thou dost observe trouble and wrath,
To deliver them into thy hands:
The poor has been left to thee;
Thou wast a helper to the orphan.
Verse 36Break thou the arm of the sinner and wicked man:
His sin shall be sought for, and shall not be found.Verse 37The Lord shall reign forever, even forever and ever:
Ye Gentiles shall perish out of his land.
Verse 38The Lord has heard the desire of the poor:
Thine ear has inclined to the preparation of their heart;
Verse 39To plead for the orphan and afflicted,
That man may no more boast upon the earth.
I will recount all thy wonderful works.
Verse 3I will be glad and exult in thee:
I will sing to thy name, O thou Most High.Verse 4When mine enemies are turned back,
They shall be feeble and perish at thy presence.
Verse 5For thou hast maintained my cause and my right;
Thou satest on the throne, that judgest righteousness.
Verse 6Thou hast rebuked the nations, and the ungodly one has perished;
Thou hast blotted out their name forever, even forever and ever.

He will judge the nations in uprightness.
