Authorized (King James) Version
Psalm 9
To the chief Musician upon Muth-labben, A Psalm of David.
1 I will praise thee, O Lord, with my whole heart;
I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.
2 I will be glad and rejoice in thee:
I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High.
3 When mine enemies are turned back,
they shall fall and perish at thy presence.
4 For thou hast maintained my right and my cause;
thou satest in the throne judging right.
5 Thou hast rebuked the heathen,
thou hast destroyed the wicked,
thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.
6 O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end:
and thou hast destroyed cities;
their memorial is perished with them.
7 But the Lord shall endure for ever:
he hath prepared his throne for judgment.
8 And he shall judge the world in righteousness,
he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.
9 The Lord also will be a refuge for the oppressed,
a refuge in times of trouble.
10 And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee:
for thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
11 Sing praises to the Lord, which dwelleth in Zion:
declare among the people his doings.
12 When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them:
he forgetteth not the cry of the humble.
13 Have mercy upon me, O Lord;
consider my trouble which I suffer of them that hate me,
thou that liftest me up from the gates of death:
14 that I may shew forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion:
I will rejoice in thy salvation.
15 The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made:
in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.
16 The Lord is known by the judgment which he executeth:
the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands.
Higgaion. Selah.
17 The wicked shall be turned into hell,
and all the nations that forget God.
18 For the needy shall not alway be forgotten:
the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever.
19 Arise, O Lord; let not man prevail:
let the heathen be judged in thy sight.
20 Put them in fear, O Lord:
that the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah.

1 I will give thanks to You, O Lord, with my whole heart;
I will declare all Your marvelous works.
2 I will be glad and rejoice in You;
I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High.
3 When my enemies are turned back,
they will stumble and perish at Your presence.

You sat on the throne judging what is right.
5 You have rebuked the nations,
You have destroyed the wicked,
You have wiped out their name forever and ever.

the wicked one is snared in the work of his own hands. Meditation. Selah

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 volvieron atrás;
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;
Y las ciudades que derribaste,
Su memoria 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 refugio del pobre,
Refugio para el tiempo de angustia.
10 En ti confiarán los que conocen tu nombre,
Por cuanto tú, oh Jehová, no desamparaste a los que te buscaron.
11 Cantad a Jehová, que habita en Sion;
Publicad entre los pueblos sus obras.
12 Porque el que demanda la sangre se acordó de ellos;
No se olvidó del clamor de los afligidos.
13 Ten misericordia de mí, Jehová;
Mira mi aflicción que padezco a causa de los que me aborrecen,
Tú que me levantas de las puertas de la muerte,
14 Para que cuente yo todas tus alabanzas
En las puertas de la hija de Sion,
Y me goce en tu salvación.
15 Se hundieron las naciones en el hoyo que hicieron;
En la red que escondieron fue tomado su pie.
16 Jehová se ha hecho conocer en el juicio que ejecutó;
En la obra de sus manos fue enlazado el malo. Higaion. Selah
17 Los malos serán trasladados al Seol,
Todas las gentes que se olvidan de Dios.
18 Porque no para siempre será olvidado el menesteroso,
Ni la esperanza de los pobres perecerá perpetuamente.
19 Levántate, oh Jehová; no se fortalezca el hombre;
Sean juzgadas las naciones delante de ti.
20 Pon, oh Jehová, temor en ellos;
Conozcan las naciones que no son sino hombres. Selah

9 (For the one directing. To The Death of the Son. Mizmor of Dovid) I will give thanks to Thee, Hashem, with kol lev of me; I will show forth all Thy marvellous works.
2 (3) I will be glad and rejoice in Thee; I will sing praise to Thy Shem, O Thou Elyon.
3 (4) When mine oyevim are turned back, they shall fall and perish at Thy presence.
4 (5) For Thou hast maintained my mishpat and my cause; Thou as Shofet Tzedek dost sit on the kisse.
5 (6) Thou hast rebuked the Goyim, Thou hast destroyed the wicked, Thou hast blotted out their shem l’olam va’ed.
6 (7) Choravot lanetzach (endless ruins) have come to the enemy: and Thou hast rooted out cities; their memory is perished with them.
7 (8) But Hashem shall reign l’olam; He hath established His kisse (throne) for mishpat.
8 (9) And He shall judge the tevel (world) in tzedek, He shall govern the nations with justice.
9 (10) Hashem also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of tzoros.
10 (11) And they that know Shemecha will put their trust in Thee; for Thou, Hashem, hast not forsaken them that seek Thee.
11 (12) Sing praises to Hashem, enthroned in Tziyon; declare among the nations His deeds.
12 (13) When He avenges [shefach] dahm, He remembereth them; He forgetteth not the cry of the aniyim (humble, afflicted, the helpless ones).
13 (14) Have mercy upon me, Hashem; consider my sufferings which I suffer of them that hate me, Thou that liftest me up from the sha’arei mavet (gates of death);
14 (15) That I may show forth all Thy praise in the Sha’arei Bat Tziyon. I will rejoice in Thy Yeshuah (salvation).
15 (16) The Goyim are sunk down in the shachat (pit) that they dug; in the reshet (net) which they hid is their own foot caught.
16 (17) Hashem is known by the mishpat which He executeth; the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgayon. Selah.
17 (18) The resha’im shall be turned into Sheol, and all the Goyim that forget Elohim.
18 (19) For the needy shall not always be forgotten; the tikveh of the poor shall not perish forever.
19 (20) Arise, Hashem; let not enosh (mankind) prevail; let the Goyim be judged in Thy sight.
20 (21) Put them in terror, Hashem; that the Goyim may know themselves to be but enosh. Selah.
