New Testament

Psalm 9:6-13 English Standard Version (ESV)

6. The enemy came to an end in everlasting ruins;their cities you rooted out;the very memory of them has perished.

7. But the Lord sits enthroned forever;he has established his throne for justice,

8. and he judges the world with righteousness;he judges the peoples with uprightness.

9. The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed,a stronghold in times of trouble.

10. And those who know your name put their trust in you,for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you.

11. Sing praises to the Lord, who sits enthroned in Zion!Tell among the peoples his deeds!

12. For he who avenges blood is mindful of them;he does not forget the cry of the afflicted.

13. Be gracious to me, O Lord!See my affliction from those who hate me,O you who lift me up from the gates of death,
