| 1 | For the Leader; upon Muthlabben. A Psalm of David. |
| 2 | I will give thanks unto the LORD with my whole heart; I will tell of all Thy marvellous works. |
| 3 | I will be glad and exult in Thee; I will sing praise to Thy name, O Most High: |
| 4 | When mine enemies are turned back, They stumble and perish at Thy presence; |
| 5 | For Thou hast maintained my right and my cause; Thou sattest upon the throne as the righteous Judge. |
| 6 | Thou hast rebuked the nations, Thou hast destroyed the wicked, Thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever. |
| 7 | O thou enemy, the waste places are come to an end for ever; And the cities which thou didst uproot, Their very memorial is perished. |
| 8 | But the LORD is enthroned for ever; He hath established His throne for judgment. |
| 9 | And He will judge the world in righteousness, He will minister judgment to the peoples with equity. |
| 10 | The LORD also will be a high tower for the oppressed, A high tower in times of trouble; |
| 11 | And they that know Thy name will put their trust in Thee; For thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek Thee. |
| 12 | Sing praises to the LORD, who dwelleth in Zion; Declare among the peoples His doings. |
| 13 | For He that avengeth blood hath remembered them; He hath not forgotten the cry of the humble. |
| 14 | Be gracious unto me, O LORD, Behold mine affliction at the hands of them that hate me; Thou that liftest me up from the gates of death; |
| 15 | That I may tell of all Thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion, That I may rejoice in Thy salvation. |
| 16 | The nations are sunk down in the pit that they made; In the net which they hid is their own foot taken. |
| 17 | The LORD hath made Himself known, He hath executed judgment, The wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah |
| 18 | The wicked shall return to the nether-world, Even all the nations that forget God. |
| 19 | For the needy shall not alway be forgotten, Nor the expectation of the poor perish for ever. |
| 20 | Arise, O LORD, let not man prevail; Let the nations be judged in Thy sight. |
| 21 | Set terror over them, O LORD; Let the nations know they are but men. Selah |
