Psalms 9:5-12 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

5. You have rebuked the nations, You have destroyed the wicked; You have blotted out their name forever and ever.

6. The enemy has come to an end in perpetual ruins, And You have uprooted the cities; The very memory of them has perished.

7. But the Lord abides forever; He has established His throne for judgment,

8. And He will judge the world in righteousness; He will execute judgment for the peoples with equity.

9. The Lord also will be a stronghold for the oppressed, A stronghold in times of trouble;

10. And those who know Your name will put their trust in You, For You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You.

11. Sing praises to the Lord, who dwells in Zion; Declare among the peoples His deeds.

12. For He who requires blood remembers them; He does not forget the cry of the afflicted.
