2. I will rejoice in You and be in high spirits; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High!
3. When my enemies turned back, they stumbled and perished before You.
4. For You have maintained my right and my cause; You sat on the throne judging righteously.
5. You have rebuked the nations, You have destroyed the wicked; You have blotted out their name forever and ever.
6. The enemy have been cut off and have vanished in everlasting ruins, You have plucked up and overthrown their cities; the very memory of them has perished and vanished.
7. But the Lord shall remain and continue forever; He has prepared and established His throne for judgment. [Heb. 1:11.]
8. And He will judge the world in righteousness (rightness and equity); He will minister justice to the peoples in uprightness. [Acts 17:31.]
9. The Lord also will be a refuge and a high tower for the oppressed, a refuge and a stronghold in times of trouble (high cost, destitution, and desperation).
