For the Leader; upon Muthlabben. A Psalm of David.
PSALM 9
1 I’ll praise you, LORD, with all my heart;
your wonders I’ll proclaim.
2 I will rejoice in you, Most High,
and praise your holy name.

3 Before you all my enemies fall,
they turn their backs and flee.
4 For you upheld my right and cause
and judged me righteously.

5 You have rebuked the nations, LORD;
the wicked you destroyed.
You blotted out the heathen’s name—
for ever made it void.

6 The enemy have met their doom,
destroyed eternally.
You have uprooted all their towns;
they’re lost to memory.

7 The LORD for ever reigns on high;
his throne for judgment stands.
8 He’ll judge the world in righteousness,
with justice rule the lands.

9 The LORD will be a hiding place
for those who are oppressed,
And he will be a strong defence
for those who are distressed.

10 All those who know your name, O LORD,
in you their trust will place,
For you do not abandon those
who seek your gracious face.

11 Sing praises to the LORD who sits
in Zion on his throne;
Among the nations of the world
proclaim what he has done.

12 For he, the avenger of man’s blood,
remembers evermore;
The cry of the afflicted one
he never will ignore.

13 O LORD, see how my enemies
are persecuting me.
Have mercy! From the gates of death
lift me and set me free,

14 So that in Zion’s city gates
your praise I may declare,
And that I may exult with joy
in your salvation there.

15 The nations all have fallen down
into the pit they made;
Their feet are tangled in the net
which they themselves have laid.

16 The LORD is known by righteous acts;
his justice always stands.
The wicked are ensnared in traps,
the work of their own hands.

17 The wicked will return to where
the dead have their abode,
Where all the heathen nations go
that have forgotten God.

18 The needy will not be ignored,
forgotten all their days;
The hopes and longings of the poor
will not be crushed always.

19 Arise, LORD! Let not man prevail;
judge nations from your throne.
20 That they may know how frail they are,
with fear, LORD, strike them down.

PSALM 10
1 O LORD, why do you stand remote
and stay so far away?
Why do you hide yourself from us
when trouble comes our way?

2 The wicked in his arrogance
hunts down the weak and poor,
Who in the snares that he has set
are caught and held secure.

3 About the cravings of his heart
he speaks with boastful word;
He praises people filled with greed
while he reviles the LORD.

4 The wicked does not seek the LORD
because he is so proud,
And in his inmost thoughts there is
no room at all for God.

5 His ways are always prosperous;
he strikes a haughty pose.
He keeps his distance from your laws;
he sneers at all his foes.

6 He reassures himself and says,
“No threat will topple me—
I will be happy evermore;
from trouble I’ll be free.”

7 The wicked’s mouth is always full
of curses, threats and lies;
Evil and trouble from his tongue
continually arise.

8 He lies in wait near villages
his victims’ blood to spill;
He lurks in secret ambushes
the innocent to kill.

9 Like lions crouching secretly
he waits for helpless prey.
He pounces on the weak and poor;
his net drags them away.

10 His victims by his strength are crushed;
his prey collapse and fall.
11 He thinks, “God does not notice it;
he does not see at all.”

12 Arise, LORD God, lift up your hand;
do not forget the poor.
13 Why does the wicked say of God,
“My conduct he’ll ignore”?

14 But you, O God, do see such wrong
and you will bring redress.
The victim puts his trust in you;
you help the fatherless.

15 LORD, break the wicked person’s power
and call him to account
For all the evil which he thought
would never be found out.

16 The LORD will ever reign as king;
his throne will always stand.
The heathen nations of the world
will perish from his land.

17 O LORD, the needy ones’ desire
you answer from on high;
You give encouragement to them
and listen to their cry.

18 For you defend the fatherless
and those who are oppressed,
So that from fear of mortal man
the helpless may have rest.
