Psalm 9

God’s Power and Justice

To the leader: according to Muth-labben. A Psalm of David.
¹ I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart;
   I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.
² I will be glad and exult in you;
   I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.

⁷ The Lord is my strength and my shield;
   in him my heart trusts;
so I am helped, and my heart exults,
   and with my song I give thanks to him.

⁴ Sing praises to the Lord, O you his faithful ones,
   and give thanks to his holy name.
¹¹ You have turned my mourning into dancing;
   you have taken off my sackcloth
   and clothed me with joy,
¹² so that my soul^* may praise you and not be silent.
   O Lord my God, I will give thanks to you for ever.
¹⁴ Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving,^*
   and pay your vows to the Most High.
²³ Those who bring thanksgiving as their sacrifice honour me;
   to those who go the right way^*
   I will show the salvation of God.’
