Psalm 9
New King James Version

Prayer and Thanksgiving for the Lord’s Righteous Judgments

To the Chief Musician. To the tune of [a]“Death of the Son.” A Psalm of David.

9 I will praise You, O Lord, with my whole heart;
I will tell of all Your marvelous works.
2 I will be glad and (A)rejoice in You;
I will sing praise to Your name, (B)O Most High.

3 When my enemies turn back,
They shall fall and perish at Your presence.
4 For You have maintained my right and my cause;
You sat on the throne judging in righteousness.
5 You have rebuked the [b]nations,
You have destroyed the wicked;
You have (C)blotted out their name forever and ever.

6 O enemy, destructions are finished forever!
And you have destroyed cities;
Even their memory has (D)perished.
7 (E)But the Lord shall endure forever;
He has prepared His throne for judgment.
8 (F)He shall judge the world in righteousness,
And He shall administer judgment for the peoples in uprightness.

9 The Lord also will be a (G)refuge[c] for the oppressed,
A refuge in times of trouble.
10 And those who (H)know Your name will put their trust in You;
For You, Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You.

11 Sing praises to the Lord, who dwells in Zion!
(I)Declare His deeds among the people.
12 (J)When He avenges blood, He remembers them;
He does not forget the cry of the [d]humble.

13 Have mercy on me, O Lord!
Consider my trouble from those who hate me,
You who lift me up from the gates of death,
14 That I may tell of all Your praise
In the gates of [e]the daughter of Zion.
I will (K)rejoice in Your salvation.

15 (L)The [f]nations have sunk down in the pit which they made;
In the net which they hid, their own foot is caught.
16 The Lord is (M)known by the judgment He executes;
The wicked is snared in the work of his own hands.
(N)Meditation.[g] Selah

17 The wicked shall be turned into hell,
And all the [h]nations (O)that forget God.
18 (P)For the needy shall not always be forgotten;
(Q)The expectation of the poor shall not perish forever.

19 Arise, O Lord,
Do not let man prevail;
Let the [i]nations be judged in Your sight.
20 Put them in fear, O Lord,
That the [j]nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah

Salmos 9
Reina Valera Revisada

Acción de gracias por la justicia de Dios

Al músico principal; sobre Mut-labén. Salmo de David.

9 Te alabaré, oh Jehová, con todo mi corazón;
Contaré todas tus maravillas.
2 Me alegraré y me regocijaré en ti;
Cantaré a tu nombre, oh Altísimo.

3 Mis enemigos retrocedieron;
Cayeron y perecieron delante de ti.
4 Porque has mantenido mi derecho y mi causa;
Te has sentado en el trono juzgando con justicia.

5 Reprendiste a las naciones, destruiste al malo,
Borraste el nombre de ellos eternamente y para siempre.
6 Los enemigos han perecido; han quedado desolados para siempre;
Derribaste sus ciudades,
Y su recuerdo pereció con ellas.
7 Pero Jehová permanecerá para siempre;
Ha dispuesto su trono para juicio.
8 Él juzgará al mundo con justicia,
Y a los pueblos con rectitud.

9 Jehová será ciudadela para el oprimido,
Lugar fuerte para el tiempo de angustia.
10 En ti confiarán los que conocen tu nombre,
Por cuanto tú, oh Jehová, no desamparas a los que te buscan.

11 Cantad a Jehová, que habita en Sión;
Publicad entre los pueblos sus hazañas.
12 Porque el que pide cuentas de la sangre se acordó de los afligidos;
No se olvidó del clamor de ellos.
13 Ten misericordia de mí, Jehová;
Mira mi aflicción que padezco a causa de los que me aborrecen,
Levántame de las puertas de la muerte,
14 Para que proclame yo todas tus alabanzas.
En las puertas de la hija de Sión,
Gozoso por tu salvación.

15 Se hundieron las naciones en el hoyo que hicieron;
En la red que escondieron quedó prendido su pie.
16 Jehová se ha dado a conocer en el juicio que ejecutó;
En la obra de sus manos fue enredado el malo.
Higaión. Selah

17 Los malos serán trasladados al Seol,
Todas las gentes que se olvidan de Dios.

18 Porque no estará perpetuamente olvidado el menesteroso,
Ni la esperanza de los pobres perecerá para siempre.

19 Levántate, oh Jehová; no triunfe el hombre;
Sean juzgadas las naciones delante de ti.
20 Oh Jehová, infúndeles temor;
Y aprendan las naciones que no son sino hombres.
Selah

Psalm 9
New International Version

Psalm 9[a][b]

For the director of music. To the tune of “The Death of the Son.” A psalm of David.

1 I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart;(A)
    I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.(B)
2 I will be glad and rejoice(C) in you;
    I will sing the praises(D) of your name,(E) O Most High.

3 My enemies turn back;
    they stumble and perish before you.
4 For you have upheld my right(F) and my cause,(G)
    sitting enthroned(H) as the righteous judge.(I)
5 You have rebuked the nations(J) and destroyed the wicked;
    you have blotted out their name(K) for ever and ever.
6 Endless ruin has overtaken my enemies,
    you have uprooted their cities;(L)
    even the memory of them(M) has perished.

7 The Lord reigns forever;(N)
    he has established his throne(O) for judgment.
8 He rules the world in righteousness(P)
    and judges the peoples with equity.(Q)
9 The Lord is a refuge(R) for the oppressed,(S)
    a stronghold in times of trouble.(T)
10 Those who know your name(U) trust in you,
    for you, Lord, have never forsaken(V) those who seek you.(W)

11 Sing the praises(X) of the Lord, enthroned in Zion;(Y)
    proclaim among the nations(Z) what he has done.(AA)
12 For he who avenges blood(AB) remembers;
    he does not ignore the cries of the afflicted.(AC)

13 Lord, see how my enemies(AD) persecute me!
    Have mercy(AE) and lift me up from the gates of death,(AF)
14 that I may declare your praises(AG)
    in the gates of Daughter Zion,(AH)
    and there rejoice in your salvation.(AI)

15 The nations have fallen into the pit they have dug;(AJ)
    their feet are caught in the net they have hidden.(AK)
16 The Lord is known by his acts of justice;
    the wicked are ensnared by the work of their hands.[c](AL)
17 The wicked go down to the realm of the dead,(AM)
    all the nations that forget God.(AN)
18 But God will never forget the needy;
    the hope(AO) of the afflicted(AP) will never perish.

19 Arise,(AQ) Lord, do not let mortals triumph;(AR)
    let the nations be judged(AS) in your presence.
20 Strike them with terror,(AT) Lord;
    let the nations know they are only mortal.(AU)
