Psalm 9 (WEBP)

[1] I will give thanks to Yahweh with my whole heart. I will tell of 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 turn back, they stumble and perish in your presence.
[4] For you have maintained my just cause. You sit on the throne judging righteously.
[5] You have rebuked the nations. You have destroyed the wicked. You have blotted out their name forever and ever.
[6] The enemy is overtaken by endless ruin. The very memory of the cities which you have overthrown has perished.
[7] But Yahweh reigns forever. He has prepared his throne for judgment.
[8] He will judge the world in righteousness. He will administer judgment to the peoples in uprightness.
[9] Yahweh will also be a high tower for the oppressed; a high tower in times of trouble.
[10] Those who know your name will put their trust in you, for you, Yahweh, have not forsaken those who seek you.
[11] Sing praises to Yahweh, who dwells in Zion, and declare among the people what he has done.
[12] For he who avenges blood remembers them. He doesn’t forget the cry of the afflicted.
[13] Have mercy on me, Yahweh. See my affliction by those who hate me, and lift me up from the gates of death,
[14] that I may show all of your praise. I will rejoice in your salvation in the gates of the daughter of Zion.
[15] The nations have sunk down in the pit that they made. In the net which they hid, their own foot is taken.
[16] Yahweh has made himself known. He has executed judgment. The wicked is snared by the work of his own hands. Meditation. Selah.
[17] The wicked shall be turned back to Sheol, even all the nations that forget God.
[18] For the needy shall not always be forgotten, nor the hope of the poor perish forever.
[19] Arise, Yahweh! Don’t let man prevail. Let the nations be judged in your sight.
[20] Put them in fear, Yahweh. Let the nations know that they are only men. Selah.

Psalm 9:17 Sheol is the place of the dead.

Psalm 9 (BYZ)

[1] εις το τελος υπερ των κρυφιων του υιου ψαλμος τω δαυιδ [9:2] εξομολογησομαι σοι κυριε εν ολη καρδια μου διηγησομαι παντα τα θαυμασια σου
[2] [9:3] ευφρανθησομαι και αγαλλιασομαι εν σοι ψαλω τω ονοματι σου υψιστε
[3] [9:4] εν τω αποστραφηναι τον εχθρον μου εις τα οπισω ασθενησουσιν και απολουνται απο προσωπου σου
[4] [9:5] οτι εποιησας την κρισιν μου και την δικην μου εκαθισας επι θρονου ο κρινων δικαιοσυνην
[5] [9:6] επετιμησας εθνεσιν και απωλετο ο ασεβης το ονομα αυτων εξηλειψας εις τον αιωνα και εις τον αιωνα του αιωνος
[6] [9:7] του εχθρου εξελιπον αι ρομφαιαι εις τελος και πολεις καθειλες απωλετο το μνημοσυνον αυτων μετ ηχους
[7] [9:8] και ο κυριος εις τον αιωνα μενει ητοιμασεν εν κρισει τον θρονον αυτου
[8] [9:9] και αυτος κρινει την οικουμενην εν δικαιοσυνη κρινει λαους εν ευθυτητι
[9] [9:10] και εγενετο κυριος καταφυγη τω πενητι βοηθος εν ευκαιριαις εν θλιψει
[10] [9:11] και ελπισατωσαν επι σε οι γινωσκοντες το ονομα σου οτι ουκ εγκατελιπες τους εκζητουντας σε κυριε
[11] [9:12] ψαλατε τω κυριω τω κατοικουντι εν σιων αναγγειλατε εν τοις εθνεσιν τα επιτηδευματα αυτου
[12] [9:13] οτι εκζητων τα αιματα αυτων εμνησθη ουκ επελαθετο της κραυγης των πενητων
[13] [9:14] ελεησον με κυριε ιδε την ταπεινωσιν μου εκ των εχθρων μου ο υψων με εκ των πυλων του θανατου
[14] [9:15] οπως αν εξαγγειλω πασας τας αινεσεις σου εν ταις πυλαις της θυγατρος σιων αγαλλιασομαι επι τω σωτηριω σου
[15] [9:16] ενεπαγησαν εθνη εν διαφθορα η εποιησαν εν παγιδι ταυτη η εκρυψαν συνελημφθη ο πους αυτων
[16] [9:17] γινωσκεται κυριος κριματα ποιων εν τοις εργοις των χειρων αυτου συνελημφθη ο αμαρτωλος ωδη διαψαλματος
[17] [9:18] αποστραφητωσαν οι αμαρτωλοι εις τον αδην παντα τα εθνη τα επιλανθανομενα του θεου
[18] [9:19] οτι ουκ εις τελος επιλησθησεται ο πτωχος η υπομονη των πενητων ουκ απολειται εις τον αιωνα
[19] [9:20] αναστηθι κυριε μη κραταιουσθω ανθρωπος κριθητωσαν εθνη ενωπιον σου
[20] [9:21] καταστησον κυριε νομοθετην επ αυτους γνωτωσαν εθνη οτι ανθρωποι εισιν διαψαλμα
