9. The LORD also will be a high tower for the oppressed, a high tower 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. For he that maketh inquisition for blood remembereth them: he forgetteth not the cry of the poor.
13. Have mercy upon me, O LORD; behold my affliction which I suffer of them that hate me, thou that liftest me up from the gates of death;
14. That I may shew forth all thy praise: in the gates of the daughter of Zion, I will rejoice in thy salvation.
15. The nations are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.
16. The LORD hath made himself known, he hath executed judgment: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah
17. The wicked shall return to Sheol, even all the nations that forget God.
