6. The enemy is finished—in ruins forever.You have uprooted their cities.Even the memory of them has faded.
7. Yet, the Lord is enthroned forever.He has set up his throne for judgment.
8. He alone judges the world with righteousness.He judges ⌊its⌋ people fairly.
9. The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed,a stronghold in times of trouble.
10. Those who know your name trust you, O Lord,because you have never deserted those who seek your help.
11. Make music to praise the Lord, who is enthroned in Zion.Announce to the nations what he has done.
12. The one who avenges murder has remembered oppressed people.He has never forgotten their cries.
13. Have pity on me, O Lord.Look at what I suffer because of those who hate me.You take me away from the gates of death
14. so that I may recite your praises one by onein the gates of Zionand find joy in your salvation.
15. The nations have sunk into the pit they have made.Their feet are caught in the net they have hidden ⌊to trap others⌋.
