1. I will praise you, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will show forth all your marvelous works.
2. I will be glad and rejoice in you: I will sing praise to your name, O most High.
3. When my enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at your presence.
4. For you have maintained my right and my cause; you sat in the throne judging right.
5. You have rebuked the nations, you have destroyed the wicked, you have put out their name forever and ever.
6. O you enemy, destructions are come to an everlasting end: and you have destroyed cities; their memory is perished with them.
7. But the LORD shall endure forever: he has prepared his throne for judgment.
8. And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.
9. The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
10. And they that know your name will put their trust in you: for you, LORD, have not forsaken them that seek you.
11. Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion: declare among the people his doings.
12. When he avenges blood, he remembers them: he forgets not the cry of the humble.
13. Have mercy upon me, O LORD; consider my trouble which I suffer from them that hate me, you that lift me up from the gates of death:
14. That I may show forth all your praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in your salvation.
15. The nations are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.
16. The LORD is known by the judgment which he executes: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.
17. The wicked shall be turned into sheol, and all the nations that forget God.
