Psalms 9:7-16 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

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.

13. Be gracious to me, O Lord; See my affliction from those who hate me, You who lift me up from the gates of death,

14. That I may tell of all Your praises, That in the gates of the daughter of Zion I may rejoice in Your salvation.

15. The nations have sunk down in the pit which they have made; In the net which they hid, their own foot has been caught.

16. The Lord has made Himself known; He has executed judgment. In the work of his own hands the wicked is snared. Higgaion Selah.
