Psalms 9:2-12 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

2. In thee, most High, I'll greatly joy,and sing unto thy name.

3. When back my foes were turn'd, they fell,and perish'd at thy sight:

4. For thou maintain'dst my right and cause;on throne sat'st judging right.

5. The heathen thou rebuked hast,the wicked overthrown;Thou hast put out their names, that theymay never more be known.

6. O en'my! now destructions havean end perpetual:Thou cities raz'd; perish'd with themis their memorial.

7. God shall endure for aye; he dothfor judgment set his throne;

8. In righteousness to judge the world,justice to give each one.

9. God also will a refuge befor those that are oppress'd;A refuge will he be in timesof trouble to distress'd.

10. And they that know thy name, in theetheir confidence will place:For thou hast not forsaken themthat truly seek thy face.

11. O sing ye praises to the Lord,that dwells in Sion hill;And all the nations amonghis deeds record ye still.

12. When he enquireth after blood,he then rememb'reth them:The humble folk he not forgetsthat call upon his name.
