1 For the music director; according to the alumoth-labben style; a psalm of David. I will thank the LORD with all my heart! I will tell about all your amazing deeds! 2 I will be happy and rejoice in you! I will sing praises to you, O sovereign One! 3 When my enemies turn back, they trip and are defeated before you. 4 For you defended my just cause; from your throne you pronounced a just decision. 5 You terrified the nations with your battle cry; you destroyed the wicked; you permanently wiped out all memory of them. 6 The enemy's cities have been reduced to permanent ruins; you destroyed their cities; all memory of the enemies has perished. 7 But the LORD rules forever; he reigns in a just manner. 8 He judges the world fairly; he makes just legal decisions for the nations. Psalms 9:1-8, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
