Psalm 9
- I will praise you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonders.
- I will be glad and sing your praises; I will awake the dawn and shout for joy.
- I will praise you, Lord, among all the nations; I will sing your praises among all the peoples.
- For great is your love, reaching to the heavens; your faithfulness reaches the skies.
- Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the great deep. "O Lord, you are my hope; I trust you from the morning on.
- You are my savior; you are the one I look to, my God, my rock, my savior."
- I will praise you, Lord, my God, with all my heart; I will honor your name forever.
- For your love is higher than the heavens; it reaches to the skies.
- You who dwell in the heavens, holy ones, God's mighty ones,
- who are mighty in power, according to your faithfulness.
- You have set your glory above the heavens.
- By your strength the sun was given the power to shine; by your arms the moon and stars were given light.
- You have given judgment to the nations; you have given justice to all peoples.
- You, Lord, are the one who is holy; you are the one who is enthroned above the praises of Israel.
- You are the one who is our shield, our help and our glory.
- You are the one who lifted up the horn of your people, to give them praise for your salvation, to give them praise for the glory of your name.
- You are the one who gave them victory over their enemies, to give them the land of the nations, to give them the heritage of the peoples,
- to give them the land that you swore to give to their ancestors, to give them the land flowing with milk and honey.
- When they were few in number, few indeed, and strangers in it,
- they wandered from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another.
- But he allowed no one to oppress them; he protected them from the hands of all who hated them.
- The Lord will reign forever; your God, O Zion, for all generations.
