1Unto the end, for the hidden things of the Son. A psalm for David.
1I will give thanks to the LORD with all my heart; I will recount all Your wonders.
2I will give praise to thee, O Lord, with my whole heart: I will relate all thy wonders.
2I will be glad and rejoice in You; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High.
3I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing to thy name, O thou most high.
3When my enemies retreat, they stumble and perish before You.
4When my enemy shall be turned back: they shall be weakened and perish before thy face.
4For You have upheld my just cause; You sit on Your throne judging righteously.
5For thou hast maintained my judgment and my cause: thou hast sat on the throne, who judgest justice.
5You have rebuked the nations; You have destroyed the wicked; You have erased their name forever and ever.
6Thou hast rebuked the Gentiles, and the wicked one hath perished: thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever.
6The enemy has come to eternal ruin, and You have uprooted their cities; the very memory of them has vanished.
7The swords of the enemy have failed unto the end: and their cities thou hast destroyed. Their memory hath perished with a noise.
7But the LORD abides forever; He has established His throne for judgment.
8But the Lord remaineth for ever. He hath prepared his throne in judgment:
8He judges the world with justice; He governs the people with equity.
9And he shall judge the world in equity, he shall judge the people in justice.
9The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.
10And the Lord is become a refuge for the poor: a helper in due time in tribulation.
10Those who know Your name trust in You, for You, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek You.
11And let them trust in thee who know thy name: for thou hast not forsaken them that seek thee, O Lord.
11Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion; proclaim His deeds among the nations.
12Sing ye to the Lord, who dwelleth in Sion: declare his ways among the Gentiles:
12For the Avenger of bloodshed remembers; He does not ignore the cry of the afflicted.
13For requiring their blood he hath remembered the: he hath not forgotten the cry of the poor.
13Be merciful to me, O LORD; see how my enemies afflict me! Lift me up from the gates of death,
14Have mercy on me, O Lord: see my humiliation which I suffer from my enemies.
14that I may declare all Your praises— that within the gates of Daughter Zion I may rejoice in Your salvation.
15Thou that liftest me up from the gates of death, that I may declare all thy praises in the gates of the daughter of Sion.
15The nations have fallen into a pit of their making; their feet are caught in the net they have hidden.
16I will rejoice in thy salvation: the Gentiles have stuck fast in the destruction which they have prepared. Their foot hath been taken in the very snare which they hid.
16The LORD is known by the justice He brings; the wicked are ensnared by the work of their hands. Higgaion Selah
17The Lord shall be known when he executeth judgments: the sinner hath been caught in the works of his own hands.
17The wicked will return to Sheol— all the nations who forget God.
18The wicked shall be turned into hell, all the nations that forget God.
18For the needy will not always be forgotten; nor the hope of the oppressed forever dashed.
19For the poor man shall not be forgotten to the end: the patience of the poor shall not perish for ever.
19Rise up, O LORD, do not let man prevail; let the nations be judged in Your presence.
20Arise, O Lord, let not man be strengthened: let the Gentiles be judged in thy sight.
20Lay terror upon them, O LORD; let the nations know they are but men. Selah
21Appoint, O Lord, a lawgiver over them: that the Gentiles may know themselves to be but men.
