Psalms 9:10-20 Common English Bible (CEB)

10. Those who know your name trust youbecause you have not abandonedany who seek you, Lord.

11. Sing praises to the Lord, who lives in Zion!Proclaim his mighty acts among all people!

12. Because the one who avenges bloodshedremembers those who suffer;the Lord hasn’t forgotten their cries for help.

13. Have mercy on me, Lord!Just look how I sufferbecause of those who hate me.But you are the one who brings me backfrom the very gates of death

14. so I can declare all your praises,so I can rejoice in your salvationin the gates of Daughter Zion.

15. The nations have falleninto the hole they themselves made!Their feet are caughtin the very net they themselves hid!

16. The Lord is famous for the justice he has done;it’s his own doing that the wicked are trapped. Higgayon. Selah

17. Let the wicked go straight to the grave,the same for every nation that forgets God.

18. Because the poor won’t be forgotten forever,the hope of those who suffer won’t be lost for all time.

19. Get up, Lord! Don’t let people prevail!Let the nations be judged before you.

20. Strike them with fear, Lord.Let the nations know they are only human. Selah
