Psalm 9:9-20

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁹ And he shall judge the world in equity, he shall judge the people in justice.

¹⁰ And the Lord is become a refuge for the poor: a helper in due time in tribulation.

¹¹ And let them trust in thee who know thy name: for thou hast not forsaken them that seek thee, O Lord.

¹² Sing ye to the Lord, who dwelleth in Sion: declare his ways among the Gentiles:

¹³ For requiring their blood he hath remembered the: he hath not forgotten the cry of the poor.

¹⁴ Have mercy on me, O Lord: see my humiliation which I suffer from my enemies.

¹⁵ Thou that liftest me up from the gates of death, that I may declare all thy praises in the gates of the daughter of Sion.

¹⁶ I will rejoice in thy salvation: the Gentiles have stuck fast in the destruction which they have prepared. Their foot hath been taken in the very snare which they hid.

¹⁷ The Lord shall be known when he executeth judgments: the sinner hath been caught in the works of his own hands.

¹⁸ The wicked shall be turned into hell, all the nations that forget God.

¹⁹ For the poor man shall not be forgotten to the end: the patience of the poor shall not perish for ever.

²⁰ Arise, O Lord, let not man be strengthened: let the Gentiles be judged in thy sight.
