1To the Overseer, `On the Death of Labben.' --A Psalm of David. I confess, O Jehovah, with all my heart, I recount all Thy wonders,
1I will give thanks unto Jehovah with my whole heart; I will show forth all thy marvellous works.
2I rejoice and exult in Thee, I praise Thy Name, O Most High.
2I will be glad and exult in thee; I will sing praise to thy name, O thou Most High.
3In mine enemies turning backward, they stumble and perish from Thy face.
3When mine enemies turn back, They stumble and perish at thy presence.
4For Thou hast done my judgment and my right. Thou hast sat on a throne, A judge of righteousness.
4For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; Thou sittest in the throne judging righteously.
5Thou hast rebuked nations, Thou hast destroyed the wicked, Their name Thou hast blotted out to the age and for ever.
5Thou hast rebuked the nations, thou hast destroyed the wicked; Thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever.
6O thou Enemy, Finished have been destructions for ever, As to cities thou hast plucked up, Perished hath their memorial with them.
6The enemy are come to an end, they are desolate for ever; And the cities which thou hast overthrown, The very remembrance of them is perished.
7And Jehovah to the age abideth, He is preparing for judgment His throne.
7But Jehovah sitteth as king for ever: He hath prepared his throne for judgment;
8And He judgeth the world in righteousness, He judgeth the peoples in uprightness.
8And he will judge the world in righteousness, He will minister judgment to the peoples in uprightness.
9And Jehovah is a tower for the bruised, A tower for times of adversity.
9Jehovah also will be a high tower for the oppressed, A high tower in times of trouble;
10They trust in Thee who do know Thy name, For Thou hast not forsaken Those seeking Thee, O Jehovah.
10And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee; For thou, Jehovah, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
11Sing ye praise to Jehovah, inhabiting Zion, Declare ye among the peoples His acts,
11Sing praises to Jehovah, who dwelleth in Zion: Declare among the people his doings.
12For He who is seeking for blood Them hath remembered, He hath not forgotten the cry of the afflicted.
12For he that maketh inquisition for blood remembereth them; He forgetteth not the cry of the poor.
13Favour me, O Jehovah, See mine affliction by those hating me, Thou who liftest me up from the gates of death,
13Have mercy upon me, O Jehovah; Behold my affliction which I suffer of them that hate me, Thou that liftest me up from the gates of death;
14So that I recount all Thy praise, In the gates of the daughter of Zion. I rejoice on Thy salvation.
14That I may show forth all thy praise. In the gates of the daughter of Zion I will rejoice in thy salvation.
15Sunk have nations in a pit they made, In a net that they hid hath their foot been captured.
15The nations are sunk down in the pit that they made: In the net which they hid is their own foot taken.
16Jehovah hath been known, Judgment He hath done, By a work of his hands Hath the wicked been snared. Meditation. Selah.
16Jehovah hath made himself known, he hath executed judgment: The wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. [Higgaion. Selah
17The wicked do turn back to Sheol, All nations forgetting God.
17The wicked shall be turned back unto Sheol, Even all the nations that forget God.
18For not for ever is the needy forgotten, The hope of the humble lost to the age.
18For the needy shall not alway be forgotten, Nor the expectation of the poor perish for ever.
