1. I will praise you, Lord, with all my heart;I will tell of all the wonderful things you have done.
2. I will sing with joy because of you.I will sing praise to you, Almighty God.
3. My enemies turn back when you appear;they fall down and die.
4. You are fair and honest in your judgements,and you have judged in my favour.
5. You have condemned the heathenand destroyed the wicked;they will be remembered no more.
6. Our enemies are finished for ever;you have destroyed their cities,and they are completely forgotten.
7. But the Lord is king for ever;he has set up his throne for judgement.
8. He rules the world with righteousness;he judges the nations with justice.
9. The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed,a place of safety in times of trouble.
