PSAL. IX

[1]

Lord, thee I'le praise with al my heart,

thy wonders all proclaim.

2

In thee, most high, I'le greatly joy,

and sing unto thy Name.

3

When back my foes were turnd, they fel,

and perisht at thy sight.

4

For thou maintain'd my right and cause,

on throne sat'st, judging right.

5

The heathen thou rebuked hast,

the wicked over thrown;
Thou hast put out their names, that they
may never more be known:

6

O enemy! now destrustions have

an end perpetual:
Thou cities raz'd, perisht with them
is their memorial.

7

God shall endure for ay: he doth

for judgement set his throne:

8

In righteousnesse to judge the world

justice to give each one.

9

God also will a refuge be

for those who are opprest;
A refuge will he be in times
of trouble to distrest.

10

And they that know thy Name, in thee

their confidence will place:
For thou hast not forsaken them
that truly seek thy face.

11

O sing ye praises to the Lord,



that dwels in Sion hill:
And all the nations among,
his deeds record ye still.

12

When he enquireth after blood,

he then remembreth them:
The humble folk he not forgets
that call upon his Name.

13

Lord, pitie me, behold the grief

which I from foes sustain,
Ev'n thou who frō the gates of death
dost raise me up again?

14

That I, in Sions daughters gates,

may all thy praise advance:
And that I may rejoyce alwayes
in thy deliverance.

15

The heathen are sunk in the pit,

which they themselves prepar'd:
And in the net which they have hid
their own feet fast are snar'd.

16

The Lord is by the judgement known

which he himself hath wrought:
The sinners hands do make the snares
wherewith themselves are caught.

17

They who are wicked, into hell,

each one shall turned be,
And all the nations that forget
to seek the Lord most hie.

18

For they that needy are, shall not

forgotten be alway:
The expectation of the poor
shall not be lost for ay.

19

Arise, Lord, let not man prevail,

judge heathens in thy sight.

20

That they may know themselves but men,

the nations, Lord, affright.
