Thanksgiving for God’s Justice |
| To the chief Musician upon Muthlab’ben, A Psalm of David. |
|
| 1 |
I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart;
| | |
I will show forth all thy marvelous works. |
|
|
| 2 |
I will be glad and rejoice in thee:
| | |
I will sing praise to thy name, O thou Most High. |
|
|
| 3 |
When mine enemies are turned back,
| | |
they shall fall and perish at thy presence. |
|
|
| 4 |
For thou hast maintained my right and my cause;
| | |
thou satest in the throne judging right. |
|
|
| 5 |
Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked,
| | |
thou hast put out their name for ever and ever. |
|
|
| 6 |
O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end:
| | |
and thou hast destroyed cities; |
|
their memorial is perished with them. |
|
|
| 7 |
But the LORD shall endure for ever:
| | |
he hath prepared his throne for judgment. |
|
|
| 8 |
And he shall judge the world in righteousness,
| | |
he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness. |
|
|
| 9 |
The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed,
| | |
a refuge in times of trouble. |
|
|
| 10 |
And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee:
| | |
for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee. |
|
|
| 11 |
Sing praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion:
| | |
declare among the people his doings. |
|
|
| 12 |
When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them:
| | |
he forgetteth not the cry of the humble. |
|
|
| 13 |
Have mercy upon me, O LORD;
| | |
consider my trouble which I suffer of them that hate me, |
|
thou that liftest me up from the gates of death: |
|
|
| 14 |
that I may show forth all thy praise
| | |
in the gates of the daughter of Zion: |
|
I will rejoice in thy salvation. |
|
|
| 15 |
The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made:
| | |
in the net which they hid is their own foot taken. |
|
|
| 16 |
The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth:
| | |
the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah. |
|
|
| 17 |
The wicked shall be turned into hell,
| | |
and all the nations that forget God. |
|
|
| 18 |
For the needy shall not always be forgotten:
| | |
the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever. |
|
|
| 19 |
Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail:
| | |
let the heathen be judged in thy sight. |
|
|
| 20 |
Put them in fear, O LORD:
| | |
that the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah. |
