9:9 The LORD is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in
times of trouble.
9:10 And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O
LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.
9:11 Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion. Declare his deeds
among the peoples.
9:12 For he who avenges blood is mindful of them; he does not forget
the cry of the afflicted.
9:13 Be gracious to me, O LORD. See what I suffer from those who
hate me; you are the one who lifts me up from the gates of death,
9:14 so that I may recount all your praises, and, in the gates of
daughter Zion, rejoice in your deliverance.
9:15 The nations have sunk in the pit that they made; in the net
that they hid has their own foot been caught.
9:16 The LORD has made himself known, he has executed judgment; the
wicked are snared in the work of their own hands. Higgaion. Selah
9:17 The wicked shall depart to Sheol, all the nations that forget
God.
9:18 For the needy shall not always be forgotten, nor the hope of
the poor perish forever.
9:19 Rise up, O LORD! Do not let mortals prevail; let the nations be
judged before you.
9:20 Put them in fear, O LORD; let the nations know that they are
only human. Selah
