1 To the chief music-maker on Muthlabben. A Psalm. Of David.
2 \9:1\I will give you praise, O Lord, with all my heart; I will make clear all the wonder of your works.
3 \9:2\I will be glad and have delight in you: I will make a song of praise to your name, O Most High.
4 \9:3\When my haters are turned back, they will be broken and overcome before you.
5 \9:4\For you gave approval to my right and my cause; you were seated in your high place judging in righteousness.
6 \9:5\You have said sharp words to the nations, you have sent destruction on the sinners, you have put an end to their name for ever and ever.
7 \9:6\You have given their towns to destruction; the memory of them has gone; they have become waste for ever.
8 \9:7\But the Lord is King for ever: he has made ready his high seat for judging.
9 \9:8\And he will be the judge of the world in righteousness, giving true decisions for the peoples.
10 \9:9\The Lord will be a high tower for those who are crushed down, a high tower in times of trouble;
11 \9:10\And those who have knowledge of your name will put their faith in you; because you, Lord, have ever given your help to those who were waiting for you.
12 \9:11\Make songs of praise to the Lord, whose house is in Zion: make his doings clear to the people.
13 \9:12\When he makes search for blood, he has them in his memory: he is not without thought for the cry of the poor.
14 \9:13\Have mercy on me, O Lord, and see how I am troubled by my haters; let me be lifted up from the doors of death;
15 \9:14\So that I may make clear all your praise in the house of the daughter of Zion: I will be glad because of your salvation.
16 \9:15\The nations have gone down into the hole which they made: in their secret net is their foot taken.
17 \9:16\The Lord has given knowledge of himself through his judging: the evil-doer is taken in the net which his hands had made. (Higgaion. Selah.)
18 \9:17\The sinners and all the nations who have no memory of God will be turned into the underworld.
19 \9:18\For the poor will not be without help; the hopes of those in need will not be crushed for ever.
20 \9:19\Up! O Lord; let not man overcome you: let the nations be judged before you.
21 \9:20\Put them in fear, O Lord, so that the nations may see that they are only men. (Selah.)
1 耶和华啊！ 我要全心称谢你， 我要述说你一切奇妙的作为。
2 我要因你快乐欢欣； 至高者啊！ 我要歌颂你的名。
3 我的仇敌转身退后的时候， 就在你的面前绊倒、灭亡。
4 因为你为我伸了冤， 辨了屈； 你坐在宝座上， 施行公义的审判。
5 你斥责了列国， 灭绝了恶人； 你涂抹了他们的名， 直到永永远远。
6 仇敌的结局到了， 他们遭毁灭， 直到永远； 你拆毁他们的城镇， 使它们湮没无闻。
7 耶和华却永远坐着为王， 为了施行审判， 他已经设立宝座。
8 他必以公义审判世界， 按正直判断万民。
9 耶和华要给受欺压的人作保障， 作患难时的避难所。
10 认识你名的人必倚靠你； 耶和华啊！ 你从未撇弃寻求你的人。
11 你们要歌颂住在锡安的耶和华， 要在万民中传扬他的作为。
12 因为那追讨流人血的罪的， 他记念受苦的人， 他没有忘记他们的哀求。
13 耶和华啊！ 求你恩待我， 看看那些恨我的人加给我的苦难； 求你把我从死门拉上来，
14 好叫我述说你一切可称颂的事， 并在锡安的城门（"的城门"原文作"女子的门"）因你的救恩欢乐。
15 列国陷入自己挖掘的坑中， 他们的脚在自己暗设的网里缠住了。
16 耶和华已经把自己显明， 又施行了审判； 恶人被自己手所作的缠住了。（希迦庸、细拉）
17 恶人都必归到阴间， 忘记 神的列国都必灭亡。
18 但贫穷的人必不会被永远遗忘， 困苦人的希望也必不会永久落空。
19 耶和华啊！ 求你起来， 不要让世人得胜； 愿列国都在你面前受审判。
20 耶和华啊！ 求你使他们惊惧， 愿列国都知道自己不过是人。（细拉）
