Context
Psalm 9
9:1 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! 9:2 I will be happy and rejoice in you! I will sing praises to you, O sovereign One! 9:3 When my enemies turn back, they trip and are defeated before you. 9:4 For you defended my just cause; from your throne you pronounced a just decision. 9:5 You terrified the nations with your battle cry; you destroyed the wicked; you permanently wiped out all memory of them. 9:6 The enemy’s cities have been reduced to permanent ruins; you destroyed their cities; all memory of the enemies has perished. 9:7 But the Lord rules forever; he reigns in a just manner. 9:8 He judges the world fairly; he makes just legal decisions for the nations. 9:9 Consequently the Lord provides safety for the oppressed; he provides safety in times of trouble. 9:10 Your loyal followers trust in you, for you, Lord, do not abandon those who seek your help.
