But the Lord sits enthroned forever;
    he has established his throne for justice,
and he (A)judges the world with righteousness;
    he (B)judges the peoples with uprightness.

The Lord is (C)a stronghold for (D)the oppressed,
    a stronghold in (E)times of trouble.
10 And those who (F)know your name put their trust in you,
    for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you.

11 Sing praises to the Lord, who (G)sits enthroned in Zion!
    Tell among the peoples his (H)deeds!
12 For he who (I)avenges blood is mindful of them;
    he (J)does not forget the cry of the afflicted.

13 (K)Be gracious to me, O Lord!
    See my affliction from those who hate me,
    O you who lift me up from (L)the gates of death,
14 that I may recount all your praises,
    that in the gates of (M)the daughter of Zion
    I may (N)rejoice in your salvation.
